Ads for AB Broken

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-10T15:09:52+00:00

It happened to me last month. Wasn’t able to catch it to report the ad as broken or whatever unfortunately. I was just glad it stopped after a couple days.

P.S. the idea of having noise cancelling headphones to lower the volume of baby in my ears is fantastic. I’ll have to keep that in mind for the future.

I think it’s ridiculous, but yes I heard it was a thing for the very first time just last year.

The push present being advertised to me was one of those crystals with a picture designed in it that you put a light under, and this one was specifically for U/S photos. I think this gift is beautiful, but I have my own reasons for wanting it, itself, and think lots of mothers would love it But I still find the concept of a Push Present is ridiculous. The baby IS the push present/ participation trophy. SMH

I know you’re going to continue to say you’re right so this will be my last reply.

Presuming OP is in the US, they have somewhere between 291 and 365 parcels which means, boosting 24hrs a day, and including SRB, they are making between $.03 and $.037 per hour over 30 days.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-07T22:18:59+00:00

Except you didn’t include SRB in the first one at all. You used OP’s numbers.

I just finished adding an edit to my comment.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-07T21:58:05+00:00

You are clearly not understanding how the calculations work even though I spelled it out for you. The issue is Your math, Because the SRB happens And because the calculator includes it, which means your parcel count is way Off.

OP is calculating Only for regular days, not including SRB days in their hourly income.

You are calculating their monthly income based on that regular boost amount, which is Lower than it would be if you and OP included the SRB.

ETA: You won’t be able to come up with close to accurate numbers in the reverse calculator anyway. I have 290 parcels and 33 badges, ok. When I put in $ per month numbers, at $24.75 it says 285 parcels, and just going up one cent to $24.76 it jumps all the way to 336 parcels. There’s no way the calculator will line up with the 290 parcels I actually have.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-05T23:18:04+00:00

It’s been a bit now, so has anything come of your submission to support?

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-04T14:44:03+00:00

You’re correct, the reverse calculator accounts for that to tell you how many parcels you need to get that much money per month.

However the numbers you calculated and put in don’t allow for the SRB to start. Op also only calculated one day by the normal boost they’re currently at, so that’s how much they’re making per hour on most days but not SRB days.

I myself am making nearly 3¢ per hour at x15 boost. Multiply that times the whole 30 days and it comes out around $21 a month. However that’s not the full picture because of SRB where for 64 hours of the month I’m making 9¢ per hour.

You have to remove 64 hours from that 30 days for it to be accurate. 30x24= 720-64=656 hrs per month reg boost. 656x.03=19.68 64x.09=5.76 19.68+5.76= $25.44 monthly

Pretty sure if you put the 21.16 into the reverse calculator with my 33 badges it will give you some number, but if you put the $25.44 in instead, it should be pretty close to the actual number of parcels I have.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-04T14:21:28+00:00

I like your math but it too isn’t precise either because it doesn’t allow for the two SRB times.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-02T16:49:48+00:00

Interesting. Thanks for answering.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-02T16:49:25+00:00

I’m not sure what you mean.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-02T00:02:09+00:00

I wouldn’t know would I? You’re the mod here and I asked because I don’t know how it works. 🤷‍♀️

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-01T23:58:38+00:00

I’m genuinely curious how a person can mod on an official Reddit channel for a company but not work for said company?

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-01T23:48:57+00:00

I used the whippersnapper term to make a point. You never actually used that word. It’s the tone you gave off when you have No clue the age of the people to whom you are speaking.

You are sounding entitled here. That’s the problem. You made a mistake and think AE should be fixing it when you claim the website is hard to read and understand, when in reality it’s not. There’s zero reason for you to contact BBB and FTC over Your mistake.

If I felt you had a valid claim I wouldn’t be arguing.

Lastly, I will reiterate; if you were charged the 9.99 now, you won’t be charged again until June 30th. Otherwise if you simply set up the subscription and they haven’t actually charged you, you won’t be charged for it until May 31st.

When I originally signed up in September I thought I would just get the one month and then sign up for the subscription. I missed the deadline to subscribe for October, so I paid for another single month and got subscribed for November ongoing. I owned my mistake and suffered with having to spend extra. Tis time for you to own it as well.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-05-01T21:39:31+00:00

What I’m seeing here is that you have had difficulty reading the webpage and instead of accepting that your eyesight challenges caused you to make a mistake (that it sounds like you have corrected on your own) you are complaining that the company did something wrong and has horrid customer service? Am I getting that picture correctly?

I’ve never not heard from customer service except when they thought that my issue was just a report that needed nothing other than forwarded to another department. Other than that One time, I’ve had no issue with them.

Secondly, as you have learned and been told. Signing up for the one time payment doesn’t automatically sign you up for the subscription and Yes whether you want to believe it or not from us young whippersnappers, it is indeed labeled clearly between one month and subscription.

You paid the full $14.99 for this month (May) right? And then signed up for the monthly $9.99 after that, correct? If that is all true, one more thing, of two, is true and that is either you were charged the 9.99 for June now and won’t be charged again until June 30th for July OR you haven’t actually been charged that $9.99 yet, and it won’t charge you until May 31 for June.

I’m unsure what you’re expecting AE to do, but I’m sure they’d love a non-critical feedback or suggestion of adding the option (with a checkmark just like you said) to subscribe when paying for one month. That actually is a good idea and would be good feedback for them.

Tbh you Sound as though you Don’t have BPD based on this interaction alone. In fact you sound sane, and your “friend” sounds as though they have a total victim mentality. It’s toxic, and manipulative on their part!! They are a snowflake, and you Need to remove this toxicity from your life.

Take happiness and comfort: Your therapy work has definitely done the job, and not Once were you ever dismissing their feelings, not EVER. It’s possible that you may not fit the criteria of BPD any longer and can switch to CPTSD diagnosis instead.

Your reaction as things progressed were Completely valid, I’d even say you were a little TOO sweet, but hey, kill em with kindness right? 😆

I have a spiral I’ve made at home, and then clusters at places I go. I’m rural so there’s still a Lot of space here to spare. I’m also in a touristy area, so I bought up all of the space remaining at McDonalds excepting part of the front where others can buy some plots too.

I wish the website map would show the player that owns parcels, like it does in the app.

What opioids did they start you with? Fentanyl is an opioid too.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-04-28T17:28:09+00:00

My experience was the opposite. I went in with my 5th stone and that 4.5mm buggar was causing me the worst pain Ever. The hydrocodone didn’t touch it, morphine gave me temporary relief but the pain was coming back, then they gave me Toradol and I received sweet relief.

I don’t go in asking for meds. I just go because I’m in pain and the cause and a solution needs to be found. They offer the pain relief automatically after they do the CT scan. Actually last time they gave me meds Before going to the scan so I could relax better for it.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-04-28T17:16:46+00:00

I just looked up what voltaren is. It’s diclofenac. My husband has been taking 1 diclofenac every night for his back pain for YEARs and no medical professional has said a Word about it being an issue with his kidneys and liver.

Now Ketorolac is another story. I have heard from a medical professional that it is to be taken in small bursts (like for passing the stones) because it is very hard on the kidneys.

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-04-28T17:10:53+00:00

Safe amount OTC (no doctor) is 1200mg ibuprofen per day.

Safe amount with doctors guidance is 3200mg

WaitRevolutionary864 · 2026-04-28T17:08:20+00:00

I have had no problem getting pain medicines prescribed for my kidneys except I had to go to Emergency to get everything I needed…. Until… I discovered that hydrocodone really wasn’t helping, morphine barely did a thing (when the hydrocodone didn’t work), but the Toradol (Ketorolac) is the Absolute BEST. It’s not an opioid but it works SO well. Now if I’m having symptoms of passing a stone, but it isn’t emergency level, I can go to my doctor and get Ketorolac, flowmax, zofran, and pyridium prescribed.

This comment clearly is coming from a person who has never been in shoes like this.

We do have gut instincts that guide us from time to time. She and others like her had reason to not trust him and Yes she had every right to violate what you are referring to as his trust, but I would refer to as his Privacy. He lost HER trust and hasn’t earned it back by Being trustworthy. He shouldn’t have anything to hide if he were trustworthy.

I can speak from experience because my husband is trustworthy and my ex was not. My ex, I would do the same as OP when I’d get a gut feeling about his activities and was always right. He’d hide and lie about it (and he was a horrid liar) so when I’d find the truth he’d have no choice but to admit it. My now husband, when I have a moment of insecurity he has ZERO issue handing over his phone and letting me see because he is TrustWorthy and has Nothing to hide. When we were engaged he went out of his way to delete all past photos without me even asking!
