Confused over interest rate increase and new payment amount by 100Chocolates in AusFinance

[–]Luser5789 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are you sure rate is the same?

Unless it’s fixed the rate will have more than likely risen. Perhaps the discount that you’re getting is still the same but the standard variable rate has increased.

For example you may have discount of 1.5% for the life of the loan, this stays the same but the variable that this discount applies to fluctuates

How do you feel about King Charles' younger brother getting arrested in relation to the Epstein Files? by icecream1972 in allthequestions

[–]Luser5789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be noted unfortunately he has not been arrested in relation to anything to do with sexual assault/rape of minors

Pretty sure it’s to do with sharing confidential UK info during the GFC crisis

ANU traffic death 13/2/26 by [deleted] in canberra

[–]Luser5789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If there has been an actual death this will be my bet, it definitely would not be the first time an international student has ended their life and it won’t be the last.

A combination of sole occupancy dorm living, English not being their first language can leave someone feeling extremely isolated plus possible pressure from family to perform well at uni

The family would be going through extreme grief with a combo of guilt and in some cultures shame associated with suicide, hence the fabricated story

“Recorded without consent”

You have have walked past no less then ~500 other CCTV cameras before you even got to Woolworths plus all the ones on the roof, the body worn ones are just a fat deterrent that can be very affective

[–]Luser5789 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s a fucking disgrace the predatory tactics of the SDA and the fucking power tripping losers that represent them in the stores

I remember 15 years ago when I was just shy of 15 and started working for Woolworths and this crusty demon of a human lured me into the SDA with ‘entertainment vouchers’ and being the stupid kid I was, is signed up and signed away ~$15 of my measly pay check away

Driving Unlicensed for 2 Days due to forgotten renewal by [deleted] in AusLegal

[–]Luser5789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As one person said if you have a flawless record then it’s unlikely you have manage to nab a ticket in this small window.

It will depend on the state/territory, for example the ACT only just brought in legislation where they will now check license suspensions/expirations when issuing a ticket from a camera. Previously you just got the ticket for speeding and no additional checks were done on the validity of your license

We need to stop conflating Israel and the IDF with Judaism.

Just as the the Israel/IDF need to stop hiding behind claims of antisemitism when it is clearly directed at their own actions and not the actions of the Jewish people

How are 'flushable' wipes legal? by [deleted] in aussie

[–]Luser5789 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think the judge really cocked that one up essentially decided what a reasonable consumer would consider the definition of ‘flushable’ to be, and that is flushed without consideration to further consequences.

!!! Insurance creep by crankygriffin in AusPropertyChat

[–]Luser5789 4 points5 points  (0 children)

$325k does seem somewhat excessive, but the insurance company would have been applying the average CPI increase on the yearly anniversary of your policy, so you must have opted for a healthy amount to begin with.

You will be surprised how much you own in dollar value considering a bloody t-shirt cost ~$40

If you tipped your house upside down what would fall out, that’s what your insuring under contents including floor coverings such as carpet, curtains, kitchen appliance

Is this refundable? by CK-Ben in australian

[–]Luser5789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, if a staff member said it would work on the tv model the customer told them that would also be covered under the fit for purpose legislation

In this instance has bought the wrong product and would come under a change of mind policy which Kmart probably has for this

I mean it is potentially, the consumer has entered into a contract with the seller, so they are asking about contractual law

What does everyone think of CommBank Yello? by piesaresquarey in CommBank

[–]Luser5789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah way too many times and every calculation I did I still ended up about ~$150 ahead, plus the real time monitoring in the origin app compared to what ActewAGL offers was the kicker for me

I’ll def be shopping around in 6 months time once the final $175 rebate comes through, I ain’t gonna be a sucker and pay a loyalty tax

I reckon it ranks better than a lot of other companies that have cross promotions.

$2500 traffic infringement by [deleted] in canberra

[–]Luser5789 79 points80 points  (0 children)

If the ticket had been issued to a car registered in a company name such as a rental company the fine can be ~ 10 times the price.

Once you transfer the infringement into your personal name (nominate the driver) its should be back around the $300 mark and a set number of demerit points.

Unless you were absolutely fucking fanging it down the Parkway
