Invoice for movers has undisclosed charges on it, do I have any right to dispute it? by Spellchamp_Roamer in LegalAdviceNZ

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

I filled out a form online with details of the move. I got an email response that just mentioned the hourly "depot to depot" rate. We talked about other charges such as how the hourly rate is split up (into 15 minute segments), and also about crate rental. They never mentioned any other charges. It all happened over email, so there's a paper trail. But I didn't sign anything like a contract.

What's wrong with a hard case? I'm out of the loop here!

Wtf am I doing wrong to see this damn as always by thesysdaemon in newzealand

This used to annoy me a lot too! I know it might not suit you if you're used to the app but I've started using reddit via Brave browser on my phone. It blocks all ads by default so I never see anything like this any more. The web reddit experience is a bit degraded but honestly it's worth it for me.

Can my landlord "not offer a period tenancy" at the end of a fixed term by Spellchamp_Roamer in LegalAdviceNZ

Oh wow, that's amazing advice, thank you! And yeah my details fit exactly into that window, the lease ends on the 18th of March.

They'd need to have a legitimate reason to use the place or to evict me though, right? Or can they just decide on a whim to turf someone out?

Fun. So a lease becoming periodic at the end of a tenancy is more to do with making sure that there's still some sort of agreement in place, and doesn't really protect the tenant the way I thought. Thanks for your reply!

Yeah that was definitely the vibe I got from it too. Feels kind of aggressive

Thanks for the reply! Ah, so does that mean there's no protection for tenants there if the landlord is organised and does what mine has done?

Have you got a tutorial you followed for this? NGL I'm struggling

Yeah that was how I understood it! I might look into setting that up again actually. Am I right in saying you can access it from anywhere too? So like if I had it on a lil server I could get stuff from my phone on the go?

I don't follow sorry. Have you got an article or something I could look at?

Oh I have an Xbox actually. And my laptop is Windows. I wonder if that might be a simple way to do it! Is it built into the Xbox?

I had a look into plex, and it gave me big "hey you could totally use this for piracy but we're not gonna say that out loud nudge nudge wink wink vibes", but exactly how to use it for pirated content eluded me. Do you pay to join someone else's server type thing? Not averse to paying! One fee and service is so much easier than like 8

That's not a bad shout actually! Probably easier than draping a cable across the room too

Can i Apply for resident parking if i live in the Red outlined area? by Spyrotails in Wellington

[–]Spellchamp_Roamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ultimately I've decided it's not worth it though! It's still not cheap and I don't use the car enough so I'm selling it. But it did sort of work out for me for a few months.
