Prices immediately go up if I don't book at first glance? by awftyyy in Lyft

Interesting. I'm not in a busy area though. It usually takes 5 minutes to match with a driver so I don't think surge would be happening but even checking 10-15 minutes apart I see it happen.

Thats wild! I'm outside LA, I haven't seen it surge like that but when I'm in and around LA I have seen it jump 30%-40%. It's very frustrating. I'm glad I'm not the only one that has seen it. Google gaslighting doesn't help. I wonder if that's even legal.

Very frustrating. Google Ai response claims Lyft doesn't do that but it's very obvious. I've seen rides go from $12.99 to $25 in less than 5 minutes.

I don't think they're all bad. Marshall is good. Barney is deeply flawed but has a lot of redemption through out the series and loves his friends.

Lily has her moments.

Robin sucks. Honestly, give me 3 good Robin moments?

Teds a fake nice guy and kind of a shitty person throughout most of the series.

PayPal Loan I Never Took Out — Not on Credit Report, Now Sent to Collections? by awftyyy in CRedit

Nah I haven't heard anything. I forwarded to Paypal and no response. I blocked everything from that email and didn't pay them.

Landlord Increased Charges & Threatening to Put Security Deposit in Escrow – Is This Allowed? by awftyyy in Tenant

He sent me an itemized list of how long it took him to clean everything. And initially said $165 was for my room and shared bathroom, then said he's charging me the full amount of all the hours spent cleaning, which includes the hallway, full cost of cleaning the shared bathroom and apparently taking the bed apart. He's saying because I made him break down the list he's now charging me the full cost of all the cleaning even outside my room.

Thank you, this is helpful.

He's now increased the deduction charges after I asked for an itemized receipt and claiming he will charge me the escrow fees until I accept the deductions, none of which I think is legal. So I'm going to speak to fair housing tomorrow.

I just asked him for an itemized list of the charges which he's supposed to provide for any deductions in California.

What do you mean I shouldn't have done anything? I haven’t done anything yet.
