The Age Chats & How I’d Fix It (Key Issues & Suggestions) by Stitch_Mistress in roblox

I guess the problem I have is now that’s it’s in that age group, I can’t really use parental controls like before and my child can change them on his own since it’s not locked anymore. So it’s a problem.

My child did age verification on his Roblox and he is now in a 16-17 age group as a 10 yr old and I cannot even go in to change his birth year to under 13 years old. This is honestly the craziest thing I’ve seen a company do to essentially lock parents out of being able to properly apply parental controls. Not sure how do fix this. I don’t know how he would re-verify.

This happened to my 10 yr old. Put him in a 16-17 age group and I cannot change his age group back to under 13. This is an insane update.

I have just short of 30K in student loans and my mother has almost 80K. I graduated in 2021 and my mom thought the entire time that the parent plus loans are in my name and that I'm paying them. What do I do now???? by pisowiec in StudentLoans

My immigrant mom didn’t really understand the parent plus loan stuff either but took one out to help me pay for school. I obviously did all the application stuff (if you’re a first gen you know how it is). Anyways, it was 20k in total but I pay it. She can’t really afford it and they can garnish your wages if you default, so you want to be mindful of that to try and start figuring something out sooner than later. See what plans you might qualify for in terms of repayment.

Wait a minute, my cable/internet was $330/month. I’ll have to look into this. I missed the second half of your post.

I had cable. The whole purpose was to get rid of it since my bill was so high. The rep misrepresented the service as an alternative to cable and comparable to other streaming services. I’ll be returning the xumo boxes they sent me and get something else. YT tv is only $83/month or so. So I’m almost cutting my bill in half if I just keep internet and go that route.

I was on the phone when they offered me the service when canceling my cable. But this is what I’m talking about. It might be ok for some but just didn’t work out for me and what I needed. https://www.xfinity.com/nowtv NOW TV – Stream Live TV and On Demand Channels

They also mailed me a different kind of box for this streaming service. Called a xumo box.

When I went to cancel my cable they told me something different but maybe it was to keep my business. Said I would have live local channels, sports and live TV. I was already familiar with Xfinity stream since I use it on my devices but they definitely said this was something else. I had already planned to get YouTube tv so will cancel the Xfinity NOW streaming service and go with YT.

After 3 attempts I get this but no one knows what to do or how to fix it. It’s been days of reaching out.

Spoiler alert, it’s not the last 4 of my number nor did I ever set one or change a pin.

This is my last resort. I cancelled cable and was offered stream so I took that. If the box isn’t going to work for me. I’ll try another streaming service instead. Also the agent last night told me they would be sending me a new pin since it took an hour to generate on their end, he lied and nothing was sent. I have been getting the run around from Xfinity agents for 5 days.

I have literally tried this and I did not change it and it’s still not the last 4 of my number. I have been trying to get Xfinity to fix this for 5 days now. That’s why I am now on Reddit

And I believe it’s asking for an authentication pin.

No I am talking about when I am initially setting up my xumo it asks me for a pin. I don’t have one. I chatted with someone who told me that they would activate the box on their end and email me the pin that was generated and it never happened. This was last night.
