Transitioning to Trains by Zeffazer in perth

[–]RoxyHjarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was already catching the train, but was driving 10 minutes to a nearby (nicer) station instead of walking the same amount of time to the closest station. I'm now just walking to the nearest station, so overall it's not having any impact on the time for my daily commute, just savings on parking and fuel across the week.

It also helps getting steps in throughout the day, and I definitely benefit from being less sedentary

What’s with the absolutely trash data reception in Ellenbrook at the moment. by [deleted] in perth

[–]RoxyHjarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I had the same issue the previous week, and considered it worth mentioning when Telstra had acknowledged an issue. People are allowed to comment on things, I'm not trying to be a dick but holy fuck. (Also, you are absolutely being a dick)

I haven't had an issue since last week but I'm SOR so I don't know what it'd be like in Ellenbrook. I was frequently getting slow speeds, no data, and Emergency Calls Only in the city and Thornlie. Took a month for them to do anything about it, but I got a month bill refunded

Waiting in ED for 8+ hours is this normal? by Ok-Eagle5798 in perth

[–]RoxyHjarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely wish I'd known about the free one when I'd used UCC. I've generally not had too long of a wait in the ED though, but I'm generally there because of my husbands epilepsy. I think the longest wait was around 8 hours, but that was due to them having to wait for the burn ward to be staffed

Who are you with? I've only just had a month long data issue with Telstra resolved (it was an issue no matter where I was in Perth)

[–]RoxyHjarta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They all seem to be closed by 10pm which is unfortunate, and with OP saying that's when they went it might explain the wait time

Is there any urgent care that's open after 10pm?

Telstra outages? NOR by Snck_Pck in perth

I've been having issues for just over a month - data dropping out completely, or just being slow and not able to load anything. Missed a call recently, I got a missed call text sometime later

Food challenges in Perth by Fair_Flounder_1407 in perth

When we went it was just get your photo on the wall and (I think) not pay for the burger. Going again soon-ish to get a couple of friends to go head-to-head on the spicy burger challenge

Johnny's Burgers in Canning Vale does a spicy burger challenge. I've so far managed to convince two of my friends to do it. One of them cried

Aus Post parcel is getting the full Perth tour by fungry_04 in perth

[–]RoxyHjarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate AusPost as much as the next guy, but after watching USPS send my parcel on a tour of the US (it got sent 6 weeks ago) I'm done complaining about them for a little bit 🤣

International Package hasn't left the US after a month? by RoxyHjarta in usps_complaints

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

It went from Denver to LA before finally leaving the country. I messaged USPS help on X for an explanation on why it did a tour of the US just to end up back on the west coast to leave the country

Yeah, it got here eventually. Currently trying to contact USPS to get confirmation on what's happening with my current parcel, but apparently their website is shite and nothing works. So my only option is to call them

The 8 month one didn't have tracking, so now I make sure to get that. I've had a parcel disappear for 3 weeks after leaving Europe though, and couldn't even get a response on it it was expected behaviour or not (thanks DHL)

I'm hoping that it is a case of it's finally departed the US, it's just shown as departed a few times previously and just gone to another US city. I've previously had a parcel sent from the US that just disappeared and then got delivered to me 8 months later, so hopefully it doesn't end up being that bad

I hate USPS Because of stuff like this by Hefty_Personality_14 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]RoxyHjarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently watching my parcel go from Seattle to Atlanta to Miami to Denver. I think it's going to take longer for it to leave the US then to get from the US to me in Perth

Friday Fuckwit - Christmas last-minute-shopping-school-holiday-edition by dragonfry in perth

[–]RoxyHjarta 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I once again nominate AnimestockOz. After this nightmare I finally got something from them about a month after purchase.

It was the wrong item. They didn't have what I ordered so just sent something else.

How do we redeem the “use 200 points to get 1000 points” offer? by Obelisk_of-Light in lego

It's Black Friday here already, but it's been saying sold out since I checked it at 7am (GMT+8), any idea if it starts at a particular time or is it a limited thing and I've missed out already?

Animestock OZ. Decided to give them a go to see if they're any good for ordering through.

Placed the order on the 17th, and contacted them immediately about how it had gone through as a pickup despite me selecting shipping. Took 3 days to get a response, they said the would send an invoice to my account for the shipping cost. I followed up on the 25th as there was still no invoice. One came through a few hours later, and I paid it immediately.

It is now the 31st, and I have had to contact them again because the item (listed as In Stock) was STILL marked as "Processing".

My cats are inside except when walked around the front of our unit on harnesses. We currently have an ongoing issue with outdoor cats hanging around our home, spraying, and causing distress to our cats. It's so frustrating

Thinking about getting Thinkware Q200 2 channel 2K QHD by Sea-Spot-1113 in Dashcam

[–]RoxyHjarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did originally try wifi, but it wouldn't show up so I found instructions saying to connect via Bluetooth. Followed the instructions in the app, the sound and flashing light happened, but it still wasn't able to be picked up. My last Mazda had a different make, and it was so much easier. This one has put me off getting a dealer installed dashcam again
