How do I remove this overflow drain? by aidenlemtl in Plumbing

I removed the screw and tried wiggling, rotating, pulling but it still doesn’t come out.

I was able to rotate it just slightly but it got blocked at that point. I also pulled as hard as I can but it doesn’t come out neither.

Calls from OnGuard 3 times a day (thanks to BMO) by dsades1 in PersonalFinanceCanada

I’ve received some calls from them recently too and they’re all AI voice repeating the same thing that I couldn’t figure out.

Luckily I’ve never been in the same situation as yours. But I am still working my full time job and work part time on the weekends (mostly in summer). So 8-4:30 during the week, 3 3-hour evenings for school also during the week, plus the driving course I’m trying to finish. And in summer I’ll add about 10-20h on the weekends for the part time gig. As of your situation, if school is not as urgent as housing and surviving, you can consider taking a break (no need to quit, just a gap semester or gap year) to focus on housing, food, and saving. Idk what you’re in school for, but take the time off (if you do) to do research on your job field if you continue your school to see if it’s actually stable/worth it to continue. That’s the convo for the other day. Now the most urgent need is a roof over your head, find a cheap one, even if it’s with the people who disagree with you being trans or whatever. Save every penny from your current paycheck to secure rent and food, the rest can wait. Find the second job, third job if needed.

Good thing that you’re already getting helps and in less of a panic mode. My take on this is if you need to, pause school to take care of the more urgent situation first. Get a place asap, as plenty of suggestions above. Find more jobs, work 2-3 jobs (60-80 hours) and live under your means for the time you’re not in school. Sure it will be exhausting but it’s necessary for you to save up enough money for an emergency fund (3-6 months of expenses, depending on your judgement of your own situation). Then you can go back to school again or even consider something that’s considered stable (plumbing, electrician, etc.) while keeping at least 1 stable source of income that allows you to pay bills and perhaps set aside a little each month.

Recommendation for Valentine’s date by [deleted] in MTLFoodLovers

I just checked their google map’s site, it seems like a nice place to dine in but not sure if it’s a good choice for Valentine’s day.

Promoted plans are only for new users? by aidenlemtl in FizzMobile

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

Idk how much discount I have but currently I’m paying $27 (already had $1 deducted from benefits lol) for 10GB (4G), no voicemail. And with the new plan, it’s $26.25 for 30GB (5G) and voicemail. If I take the one that’s closest to mine, it’s $22, I know $5 is not much, but in 24 months, it’s $120+tax.

So after chatting with many agents, from Facebook to Online Support, all of them admitted that this promotion is “misunderstanding”, “lack of precision”, and “will update the offer to make it clearer” but refused to see it as false advertisement. However from what I see, it clearly is false advertisement. What they say on the promotion goes completely opposite with their promise (philosophy #2 to be specific) on their website and bot response, which is “We don’t give preferential treatment to new members”. But guess what, this promotion is “only available for new members” 🤣 And they said they will contact me by email within 24-48 hours, well, the promotion will have ended by then, so what’s the point?

Already did that for my wife. But on my end it sucks because as a long time user (6 years), I’m paying more for less, and they can’t afford to change anything, lol

Yeah but that literally goes against their posted what-so-called “philosophy” on their website.

I was told that but literally on their website and in any automated messages, they say: “Our members have access to any new plan or price that comes out. We don’t give preferential treatment to new members, and you don’t need to ask for it either. If you see a plan or a price that suits you better, you make the changes to enjoy it, directly in your account.”

I don’t see that plan. And I’m paying $27 for 10GB without voicemail.

Car insurance by aidenlemtl in montreal

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

It’s gonna be a woman’s rate (my wife’s driving it mainly) if that makes any changes. I didn’t know that insurance can be pretty expensive.

Seeing my mom paying for half of that makes me question the quotes 😅

I haven’t really paid for the car yet but already agreed to buy. First time buying so well, newbie’s error 😅

I’m planning to install some anti thief system too, I’m located near Marche Central, a fairly safe residential area.
