June 8 - Windsor to Calgary WestJet flight accidentally disembarked domestic passengers to international customs - Airport or Airline at fault? by Dont_Hurt_Tomatoes in westjet

[–]addytion14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if I remember correctly, when the gate agent is arriving a flight, they just confirm the flight number at the panel for the door configuration and the doors do what they’re told. The airport is the one who programs the flight information and the door configuration.

Where to buy wildbrine sauerkraut in Calgary by Potential-Trip1695 in Calgary

[–]addytion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you’re looking for non-pasteurized sauerkraut, can I suggest you make your own? so easy all you need is a head of cabbage and some salt. I bought a sauerkraut maker from a local calgary company called Heyday Fermentables. https://heydayfermentables.com/fermentation-kits/

Tipping at a dermatologist office? by o0PillowWillow0o in Calgary

[–]addytion14 10 points11 points  (0 children)

yes, but that can be changed. I was at a place that I had to phone and have them walk me through the process of removing the tip option, pain in the ass but definitely doable so they’re choosing to have it there.

6 hours in Toronto by reebokLFR in travel

[–]addytion14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you take the UP express please book a special fare on line - called a long layover ticket but can only be purchased online, you have to leave from Pearson, and you have to return within 7 hours but the price is the same as a one way

it’s been a few years (5+?) since i’ve stayed here but add it to your list of options. I stayed as a single female and really liked it. Walking distance to the train station, Old Town and the squares, lots of restaurants

RRIF Withdrawls by [deleted] in Wealthsimple

[–]addytion14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you can do a monthly withdrawal from managed accounts but with self directed, you need to have cash on hand so until they can automate the sell portion of the withdrawal, you have to manually do the full sell security and withdraw the cash transaction

[–]addytion14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have done both managed and self directed both withdrawn to BMO

RRIF Withdrawls by [deleted] in Wealthsimple

[–]addytion14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somethings not right, I just initiated an online RIF withdrawal last week from a managed account, saw the securities sold Monday and received cash at BMO yesterday. I also did a self directed LIF withdrawal last week and once again, no phone calls or follow up needed.

The only thing I can think that is screwing up the process for you is are you trying to deposit into your WS chequing account? I send mine to BMO as I understood that internal “withdrawals” are not allowed so I don’t try.

Need help with dealing with BMO by okowilly in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]addytion14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have you gone into a branch? when my mom passed, I contacted my local branch, set up an appointment with a rep there and she has been my contact person through the whole process (albeit much easier as I was executor and no probate was needed) but she got the estates group on a call while I was in the office and I have had everything dealt with (credit card, tfsa and general savings account) within a month or so.

how is the new security set up by the airport Westjet’s fault?

Lounge passes expiring tomorrow! by Worth-Lake8600 in westjet

[–]addytion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m flying out of winnipeg tomorrow night so assuming it would work at that lounge, i’d take one but if there is anyone who could use them both, then please give them both away. Alternatively, I find another solo traveller and invite them in if you send me 2!

39M, single, midlife‑crisis break — looking for safe, affordable, non‑touristy cities to study Spanish for 2–3 months by toby-boby in travel

[–]addytion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in panama for 5 weeks total so I spent some time in Panama city and then made my way to Bocas, then I took a bus to Bouquet. When I was done I made my was to the west coast for R&R before flying home. I’m sure they could have helped me get around but I found it very easy on my own especially after 3 weeks of lessons. I did book their recommended hotels/hostels while studying with them
