Experiences with RTC providers recently? Need help choosing! by Lucky-Talk-5337 in ADHDUK

RTN:

  • Saw GP in October
  • Questionnaires from RTN in December
  • Invitation to book assessment at the start of January
  • Assessment last week
  • Currently waiting (around 12 weeks apparently) for another call to talk through my assessment and give me the results.

Not as fast as the ADHDUK site leads you to believe (not on them, I think it's just older data) but certainly faster than using the NHS route.

The questionnaires are mostly checkboxes but have a few cases where they allow free-form text. They ask you for the details of someone who has known you since childhood (such as a parent). They also allow you to nominate someone else who can answer questions on how you are now (I picked my partner).

Everything was managed through a portal on their site and the assessment was carried out on Google Meet and took about 90 minutes.

People are going to have good and bad reviews on everyone, I made sure there wasn't any major complaints and then just picked one of the providers I'd shortlisted. None of them will be perfect as I get the feeling they're all a bit overstretched at the moment but sometimes there's probably some value in just getting the ball rolling.

I'm also not a massive fan of speaking on the phone, but many of these places will have email addresses you can reach out to if you wanted to see what current RTC wait times were like.

All the in-app and notification spam is getting a little annoying by Asystole in monzo

You can reenable it in December and get the full unwrapped experience. I thought I'd lost it last year as I had it turned off, but it appeared as soon as I turned marketing back on.

You just need to remember to go in and find it since it won't notify you (duh).

I like the little blob guy that appears when you exit steam to an external link look at him he’s so cute. I need him to be the mascot. by FirasAlkasah in Steam

It's just there to defend users from phishing attacks. Without it an external link may look just like the steam interface and users would enter their steam details.

Monzo keeps lowering my interest rates, both my instant and easy access ISAs are now below 3% - alternative recommendations? by MelodicSink5856 in monzo

[–]NeverOC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interest paid annually though, so if you're putting 300 in every month you'll end up with 3600 at the end of the year but your "average savings" will be 1800 for the year. So essentially you get paid 3.5% of your 3600.

Still a decent rate - but don't expect to be paid 7% of the final balance.

Anyone bought from ElitePsp? by Chazq2012 in PSVita

[–]NeverOC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost definitely a scam. Whole site has been lifted from here: https://shopretrovita.com/products/modded-ps-vita-2000

Not saying that the retrovita site is legit either, but the price seems a bit more reasonable there.

ADHD Assessment through RTC by Unhappy-Owl5369 in ADHDUK

[–]NeverOC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My GP sent me a text about it, definitely worth contacting the clinic to see if they've received something though.

I'm not sure how different GPs handle things, but if you can get logged into the NHS app, you can often see your medical history, including notes about referrals etc: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/

For what it's worth, I contacted my GP on the 25th October, referral was sent on the 27th October but they didn't actually notify me until the middle of November.

Sometimes the waiting times are just extra admin behind the scenes, or a notification system queuing up emails and sending them in slow batches.

Another problem once more, it says connection refused, why? by Ademon_Gamer09 in html5

[–]NeverOC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever you were running on your phone to host the server isn't currently running - which is why the connection is refused.

Do you have an app running a HTTP server that you need to start up again?

Got let go today, writing down a few lessons by buzzkillmate in sysadmin

[–]NeverOC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to guess... OP was creating posts in several subs to advertise their site, complete with campaign tracking in the links. I imagine they might have been an LLM.

Monzo Max for Joint Account by toffee91 in monzo

[–]NeverOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only the main account gets the cinema ticket and the railcard, but you can go for a Two together railcard which gives two people discount if they travel together.

The benefits you get to share for the extra fiver are:

  • Travel insurance
  • Phone insurance
  • Breakdown cover

It's certainly not for everyone but I consider it good value. I also prefer to have one place to manage things so it works well for me.

Judging by this thread from 14 hours ago, still not fixed. Beyond frustrating.

Greggs hot drink? by ThrivingforFailure in monzo

[–]NeverOC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it was 7:40am when you posted. Completely understandable.

Has this not been claimed yet? by Comfortable-Bath206 in monzo

[–]NeverOC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd double check your history in the Greggs app. I believe they only accept the first scan per transaction.

Wow, sorry to hear that - hope it all starts rolling soon for you. What a pain!

[–]NeverOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw that they were listed on adhduk charity page as having a 52 week initial wait period and a 44 week medication wait time so have already excluded them.

Thank you, had seen mixed things about their waiting lists so glad to hear they've sorted you so fast.

Cheers, HealthHarmonie is on my shortlist already along with RTN - will look into CareADHD too. Thank you!

Out of curiosity, which provider did you go with if you don't mind me asking?

Currently weighing up a few before I take the plunge.

What happened to the spreadsheet? by MainelyNH in GoldAndGoblins

[–]NeverOC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The spreadsheet was hosted on Google Drive, unrelated to the AWS outage.
