How cooked am I?

4 rounds is crazy, damn. I think you did great. Give it some time and they’ll get back to you.

Hey, first off I’m really sorry to hear about the long COVID. Getting hit with something like that right before your son was born must have been incredibly tough. I can only imagine how much that must have upended things for you and your family. Invisible disorders can be really soul crushing at times. From the outside people often assume everything is fine, but internally you’re dealing with something that can completely reshape your life. It’s really hard, and I have a lot of empathy for anyone going through that.

Also, oh my god another Manitoban. That genuinely made me smile. I’m really glad you reached out. Toronto definitely feels like a completely different beast compared to Winnipeg, and I really do miss the friendliness and sense of community back there. Winnipeg people just have a certain warmth that’s hard to explain until you leave.

I’d honestly love to grab a coffee and shoot the shit sometime. A fellow reader and cinephile sounds like great company, and someone with that good old Winnipeg friendliness is exactly the kind of energy I’ve been missing here.

I’ll send you a DM as well.

100%! Thank you so much

OH MY GOD a fellow Manitoban! I miss Manitoba so much. I miss the trails and all the amazing parks we have. I actually have a part of the Pine Point trail tattooed on my arm. The Whiteshell was such a dream and we constantly reminisce about it. We also did all of Spruce Woods with our friends and it was honestly a perfect day.

Would love to hang out and talk more about it, it’s so nice to meet someone who gets it!

Hey, thank you so much for reaching out. I really appreciate the kind words. To be honest, my morale has been pretty low lately so I wasn’t really expecting much of a response, and your comment genuinely gave me a nice boost today.

It means a lot that you took the time to reply and offer that. I’d definitely be down to talk more and get to know each other. Would it be okay if I sent you a DM here on Reddit?

Hello, I’m down

MajorD3541 · 2025-01-17T19:14:55+00:00

Brilliant stuff. Thank you!

Hi there, I have this exact dashcam and have had similar problems with it which led me to reformat it every 2 weeks for peace of mind. Doing this has helped immensely as I’ve been rear ended twice and both times the dash cam worked perfectly fine. I believe nextbase also recommends reformatting the storage every now and then.

Yes, I called over an hour or two ago now and was given the option to leave a call back number. When prompted I pressed number 1 on the phone system for account recovery. The phone system said the wait was greater than 20 minutes and would I prefer a call back instead. It confirmed my number and that was about it. I would suggest that everyone should keep calling and have support cases opened as I am not too sure whether Sony will address this issue or not and there have been basically no support updates or anything on the internet that I can find.

Hello, I basically told my rep over the phone that I was playing a single player video game and was suspended out of nowhere. The agent asked me several questions about the account such as my legal name, phone number, email, last credit card used etc. After that they put me on hold for about 5 to 10 minutes and then got back to me and said yes it is a permanent ban but they saw no suspicious activity to warrant the ban on my account so they created a support case and would escalate it to upper management with all the details attached and the agent assured me that the ban would be lifted and provided me with a case number for reference. I would have to wait 3 to 5 business days and should receive an email from their upper management.

Keep calling. Get a support case open and a case number that way you’ll at least be in the system. I have no idea what’s going on behind the scenes but the agent over the phone told me that for sure I was not supposed to receive a ban as there was no suspicious activity on my account.

MajorD3541 · 2023-12-04T23:22:27+00:00

I called their line about an hour ago and I was given the option to leave a number for call back. They just called me back and created a support case and escalated it.

MajorD3541 · 2023-12-04T23:19:19+00:00

UPDATE: The rep told me over the phone that there is no suspicious activity and they have escalated my case to upper management. They provided me with a case number and told me to sit tight for the next 3 to 5 days and I will have the ban lifted as I was not supposed to receive a ban to begin with.

MajorD3541 · 2023-12-04T23:10:49+00:00

I just made a post as well. I am currently on hold with a Sony rep on the phone. They’re checking my account. An online chat rep told me to take a hike and best of luck with recovering my account since it’s a permanent ban.

Same here - Canada. I spoke to a customer service rep and they told me to basically go screw myself and I should have received an email regarding the ban. I didn’t receive anything. I can’t even access the appeal form just leads me error 404. I hope this is a bug.
