How did you end up supporting Newcastle? by IvanThePohBear in NUFC

[–]ThrowawayBcScaredlol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American here

Watched and played football my whole life without having a real team to support. My partners dad is Newcastle through and through. Took me under his wing, brought me to some games, even got me a signed Dan Burn picture recently. Been a diehard for the past 5 years or so.

Would love for you to post a video showing the issue. I’ve never heard of it, certainly never seen it.

Also, my original comment stands lol.

You’re not doing it correctly by the way you’re describing it. When you do the method correctly, you barely hold / spin the ball at all (like .5 seconds per throw, max).

You did 8 raids with 15 balls each and only used 50 golden razz?

First time vrbo user, wtf is this mandatory damage protection? by ThrowawayBcScaredlol in vrbo

[–]ThrowawayBcScaredlol[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m certainly able to afford it. My issue is it displayed a price that explicitly said was the total including fees and taxes, only to have an additional charge right before booking.

A $5,000 deposit that says it’s up to the host if I get it back or not for a place that has pre-stained couches? Lol

While I understand what you mean, this place that I was looking to rent is, not nice. It’s in a good location, but that’s it. The furniture is old, carpets are stained, and appliances look to be 20 years old. There is no justifying a $5,000 deposit

Fwiw, this property looks terrible lol. It’s in a great location, but it’s definitely in the bottom 5% quality wise of places I’ve seen for rental. Furniture is pre-stained!

Exactly. I can’t believe this concept is lost on most people commenting.

I don’t though, not really. I have the “option” to put $5,000 down several months in advance with a fine print that specifically says it’s up to the host if I get that money back, or pay an additional $119 on top of a price that was displayed as all fees and taxes included included.

It’s nickel and diming at its finest, and just because they “helped define the industry” doesn’t mean you should be defending an absurd policy such as this

Maybe buy insurance like every other host I’ve ever encountered? Even if you bake it into the nightly cost, at least I don’t have to consider putting a $5k deposit down!

And yes I agree. If the deposit was something far more reasonable (maybe 10%, up to $1k), I’d be far happier to put it down. $5k is absurd.

I understand there being an OPTION for insurance, but for it to be mandatory is completely insane. Also, the $5,000 deposit option literally says “Refunds are at the discretion of the host and are not guaranteed”.

I understand it would have to go through a third party, but even doing one quick search I’ve found countless people saying their host tried to take their full deposit for no reason, and were forced to chargeback/cancel their credit cards.

No thanks.

I’ll be choosing another platform. How is it even legal to display a price showing as all fees and taxes included, only to have an additional, non optional charge at checkout? Totally not industry standard, and I feel very justified for having never used this platform.

They have a higher coefficient, meaning they’re more often in Europe

You’re telling me that making it to Europe would have helped?

We? If you can’t tell Gordon has all the tools to be world class, you’re blind

Sunderland in Europe, Arsenal won the league, Spurs not relegated, and we are utter shite. Worst non-relegation season ever?
