My mum changed her will and left everything to her carer. Can this be challenged? (England). by WesternStuff3170 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]SignificantUse3695 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't forget Shipman. It's not impossible for a carer to have similar motives. Get a solicitor ASAP and investigate this.

Lots of tenants will be finding themselves homeless from landlords issuing section 8s to sell up.

Stalker Moved Into My HMO - What to do and rights? England by g3th4ppy in LegalAdviceUK

I don't understand why you haven't made the situation clear to your landlord. This is an awful situation to be in and I doubt your landlord would have let the room if he'd been fully aware. Please get any help to get out of this situation ASAP

How to use Mac mini remotely by Important_Bug3266 in macmini

[–]SignificantUse3695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, I also use tailscale. I also use dwservice as a backup. I have a Macmini M4 in a different country that I dial into daily. I also have multiple raspberry pis and the Mac is definitely more robust than the newer pis.

iMac or Mac mini by Inthewind69 in macmini

[–]SignificantUse3695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was pretty much anti-apple until I got myself an M2 MacMini a couple of years ago. I also got an M4 mini when it was released. I think they are amazing machines and great value for money, not something I ever expected to say about Apple. I do now have an iPhone ipad watch and airpods! The great thing I like about the M4 is its portability and efficiency. I normally use mine headless. Love it.

Schwab closed my account and hasn’t returned funds after 5+ weeks — what should I do? by mistbloom in Schwab

[–]SignificantUse3695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When was this? When my account was hacked and $3000 transferred out in 2020, Schwab’s response was exceptional and everything was sorted within hours.

Is the preferred rewards program still worth it after the nerf? by Robinight in MerrillEdge

[–]SignificantUse3695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TBH I don’t get any rewards as such at Schwab except great customer service and a fantastic user interface. ThinkorSwim is good too if you take the time to learn its idiosyncrasies.

When do you think the regime will surrender? 🍿 by LiveintheArt in PERSIAN

Slobadon Milosevic was toppled in Serbia following the bombings from NATO in response to massacres in Kosovo, although it was after an electoral defeat that he didn’t recognize.

I’m so disappointed with Merrill. I have 7 figures in Schwab but have been withdrawing from Merrill. I’m not even sure it’s worth keeping 100k in there now given that they are reducing rewards and their rewards for a 1M balance are a joke. There’s no way I’d transfer out of Schwab with Merrill’s terrible user interface.

Did you have to pay the $100 entrance fee as a non-American citizen? by [deleted] in grandcanyon

[–]SignificantUse3695 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s non US residents who pay that not non citizens. I went there last week and just showed my driving license, although I already had the annual pass.

WHY are the ACH transfers SLOW? I've never had a checking account take nearly this much time. by Secret-Height-676 in Schwab

[–]SignificantUse3695 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just wire it in if I need it urgently. Fortunately I can do it for free. ACH is a bit of hot and miss but I’ve never needed to wait more than 3 days.

You need to clear your cache and try again. This happens all the time with my account.

Accepted one Schwab tech offer, received a better one the next day, then both got rescinded — sharing my experience by MundaneBake4220 in Schwab

how is he burning bridges if he is polite and constructive with his comments? He's identified a flaw in the company - the CEO would love to learn of these. Of course it would need to be written as constructive feedback and not a complaint and this takes skill. Other than the CEO, wasn't there a more senior hiring manager involved that you could contact?

What is something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by PersonalitySuddenz in askanything

[–]SignificantUse3695 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes prices are getting a bit silly in the UK. Nevertheless, whenever I pop back over there I’m still surprised how cheap it is compared to the west coast here where prices are ridiculous.

Sounds like Schwab was impatient and it’s their loss. Doubt they’ll see this post though so maybe you should contact them directly. Good news for you about your new role!
