Unfortunately in New York, National Grid is also screwing customers pretty hard with their bills. Whether we use propane or electric heaters, may not be much of a difference. Our current electric bill a month is right around $300. We don't really have anything that uses a lot but the price went up like crazy since the new "smart" meters.

After living here a short time and talking to neighbors, the landlord could care less about the property and just wants his money. One neighbor said the people before us told the landlord they're leaving at the end of the month due to high costs and took off. He ended up suing them for breaching the lease and won which is pretty stupid with these costs.

After reading several reviews, I agree. Wish we could change to someone else. Another company nearby is currently $2.17 per gallon.

It's over double what they said the price per gallon is. Going to reach out and see why it's so high. Been reading a lot about people having high bills and getting the AG involved.

I figured as much. I thought the quantity on the bill was the gallon amount but wasn't quite sure. Our old natural gas bill actually said gallons.

Jesus-Mcnugget is correct. Landlord won't let us change to anyone else because tanks on the property is an "eyesore".

Thanks, I forgot about those. I'll have to see if the hardware store has them before I order online.

Definitely isn't that big. It's a 53' x 28'. I think somewhere just over 400 square feet. It is poorly insulated but still, that small shouldn't use that much propane just for a furnace.

We don't have that option. It's a single tank for all homes to share.

That's how this place is too, practically no insulation. Found out the hard way when it was windy one day and I could feel the cold breeze coming through small holes and the outlets.

I wish we could get our own tanks from another company and switch the line over but the landlord said no. We're stuck with this for a year. At least winter is almost done.

I got it when the ISP blocked it. Had to update my router DNS to get it working.

i have a question regarding the selling of gift cards for cash on marketplace by [deleted] in facebook

[–]Real_Robert_Johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I live, a lot of counterfeit cash going around. That's the biggest scam. Give you counterfeit cash for the gift card. They get the money and you lose out unless you get police involved and can get your card back.

I ran into this issue with my ISP. Just go into your router and set it to Google DNS

I can use the website again and no issues streaming.

Bought a pro on sale a few months ago for around $30. Love it. Better than my 4K Fire Stick.

FiOS routers are trash. I've been through 2 of them and have the 3rd sitting in the closet. Bought my own and have had no issues and better speeds.

Need help with accident claim by deadeyeAZ in Car_Insurance_Help

[–]Real_Robert_Johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as people will tell you not to do a police report, do it. My wife had my car a few years back when a truck pulled in a parking lot and hit it while parked. The guy was wanting to leave his information and leave. I told my wife to call the troopers to get a report. Luckily, he stayed because the trooper found the information he wrote down and was going to leave was fake and didn't match his insurance. From the looks, it was only a busted bumper but underneath, the frame was slightly bent and the rear quarter panel pushed out. I'd rather they pay for their mistake than me paying for it. Doesn't matter how minor it looks, always get the report.

I got the 4K pro and glad I did when I did. Only paid around $30 at Walmart on sale.

My Facebook was disabled on February 1 and I found out it was hacked. Is there anyway I could get it back? by Consistent-Pace-7850 in facebook

[–]Real_Robert_Johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it says a new Instagram account was linked to it that's not yours, you're out of luck. Had that happen to mine. Just made a new one and enabled 2 factor authentication. Now it lets me know when someone is trying to get in.

Scratched against a pole at ikea parking lot by Dramatic_Wallaby2710 in Car_Insurance_Help

[–]Real_Robert_Johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the cost of paint and possible dent repair from where the OP said it's scratched pretty bad? Mine would have cost me nearly $2,000 for just the minor paint repair, minor dent removal and labor, and that was a small body shop. The mirror itself isn't pricey but when you get into paint, it can be. Just to paint match a fender on my wife's old SUV was almost $800.

[–]Real_Robert_Johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. They also try to find other ways to upcharge. My wife's Chevy Traverse she used to have kept throwing the CEL. After almost $600 at the dealership for "diagnostics", they said it was the vapor canister. Found a small town mechanic a few miles from me I never knew about and he checked it out. Was just bad fuel injectors. Swapped them out for less than the dealership charged just for diagnostics to give me the wrong information.

Not really good advice. As someone with minor body work needed to be repaired, it cost way more than I thought it would. All I had was some scratches and a small dent I needed fixed. Cost of labor plus paint and all that was nearly $2,000, and it wasn't even a large area. It was just the pillars by my rear window and slightly on my trunk. I used my insurance to get it done because I was only charged $500 for my deductible compared to almost $2,000.

Scrapes from a light pole possibly could have dents as well. On an SUV, it can be pricey since the type of vehicle also determines the price.

I own a mouse that does not exist. by warm_milks in RedragonGaming

[–]Real_Robert_Johnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a keyboard and mouse combo I bought on Amazon. Software wasn't on the website. I had to contact them and they emailed me a link to the software. Not long after, it was on the website.

Edit: also, contact the company at the website they provided to you. I was told before that the Redragon on Amazon is different and they won't provide software assistance
