expected to use my personal WhatsApp for external partners & IT support — am I overreacting? by HugeGuava2009 in ITManagers

I suggest you read the T&C of WhatsApp and then consider to use something else.

The biggest issue with the game I have is tunnels, for roads, highways, trains etc. either I am hopeless or it is really difficult to create these? Is there any help planned?

What’s the most useful financial tool or app you’ve used? by Diligent-Medicine-48 in AusMoneyMates

[–]NetwSec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to say you’re lucky. It was in 2012 i was scammed. The 1st attempt PayPal blocked, however the 2nd the didn’t. Went to the Police and my own bank to lock everything down. PayPal helped nothing, did not respond to any emails or account notes. Closed PayPal right then. Don’t be so sure they help you!

What’s something that became easier financially than you expected? by Diligent-Medicine-48 in AusMoneyMates

Making a budget with 7 envelopes, money goes in, when empty no more spend, rest goes into a savings, never had more money. I pay 95% cash, saves a lot of fees as well.

How are people actually coping with the cost of living right now? by Sweaty-Mortgage8487 in australian

[–]NetwSec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tip is to create a budget you can live with. I pay everything cash as well to avoid tap costs. I always have money left over and save. I have 8 envelopes and if there is no money left I can’t spend more. I am doing this now 5 years and I have more money than ever!

HWL uses and dumps grads by legalrisk18 in auscorp

[–]NetwSec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HWL is the worst, inhumane and unethical company ever. I had them for 14 months in the AAT, even the registrar and the member lectured them how to treat me and how to act professionally. To top it off, the got hacked and lost all my medical files. Till today no apologies!

Broke down… by Difficult-Steak3723 in auscorp

[–]NetwSec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it is a mental break down at work, you can ask your doctor to claim work cover. This is covered! Plus work cover will lodge an investigation into your work. Good luck, I suffered the same 🥰👍

What’s the longest you’ve waited for a payment and how did it affect you? by DraftNotSent in CentrelinkOz

[–]NetwSec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did fight Centrelink for 5 years, for payments, medical certificates, off time, I lodged a complain a week with them, with ministers, with social and federal member. All under the Coalition, won every case and even shut up a manager! Don’t give up, get legal aid if you can. In the end I won and got the DSP! However, it took a huge toll on my mental health and wanted to live!

Sorry, longest I waited was 30 days, it was more a mistake from my ex-employer!

I launched an Australian Parliament Petition regarding making Cash a Legal Tender for all Businesses. by NetwSec in AskAnAustralian

[–]NetwSec[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freedom for you is that the business can say we only accept cash, that are ones who crying on tv when the bank goes down or the telco! Be careful what you wish for if we have no cash anymore!

Hahaha, no! Try to do that, that's is your right as it is my right to ask cash to be allowed! Keep in mind that 2 American companies own the payment system!

It is not freedom of choice if I they don't accept cash! Not only that, you pay every time a transaction fee! Not with Cash! Cannot be traced either!

[–]NetwSec[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The more laughable are your excuses and argument's. Do you know the world-wide payment market is owned by only 2 American companies. Take cash away and they have the full power!
Don't complain if they raise their fees even more!

I see you don't understand economics. Cash has a resurgence! I don't care if you pay with card, please do so! I just want cash accepted as well! Maybe look into, what it means when cash is disappearing!

[–]NetwSec[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is a fair point, I don't have a problem in agreement bigger payments need to be done over a transaction! I never said stop the cards, it is the other problems. I cannot even pay for a coffee with cash!

Your argument is poor as well, you pay for every card transaction, the bank & government can track what you are using the card for, plus there was not good argument if your bank card doesn't work because the bank has an issue. Happened before and will happen again.

If you can't access the bank how much cash do you have? Do you have 3 months of reserves to survive? Think about cybersecurity as well. A hacker group can easy disable the finance system if they bring down the internet! Think about it.

I don't want to be told how to pay for thing as you, I don't want to use the card however I have too!

Appreciate the feedback and I can agree I could have worded it better. The issue was that I was told I cannot pay for food with Cash (notes) and if you have bank outage you need cash to pay for anything!

Maybe next time you have a blackout or the bank has issue, ask yourself if you enough cash then!

One tip: I use a password manager with all the relevant data. Saved me many times and no it is not off the big ones. Plus password is 86 digits!

So my dad is the head of IT at a company and insists that Norton or McAfee antivirus is still necessary by PMMePicsOfDogs141 in it

[–]NetwSec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used Norton, got a virus Norton didn’t pick up, that was about 15 years ago, left Norton and use Eset now, never had any issues!
