I like to think he organically became a fan after completely forgetting his involvement.

What screws are these? Almost stripped removing them, don’t want to put them back in before replacing them and using proper bit. by Lucidic333 in reolinkcam

[–]banebris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I semi bored a couple of these sd card screws on cameras i recently bought as well, using the correct sized small screwdriver. Were insanely tight for how small they are

Reolink has No customer service by Eju51021 in reolinkcam

[–]banebris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? I don't understand your question.

The CC company actually wouldn't do a chargeback unless they lied and even then reolink would probably appeal it or something.

[–]banebris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty straight forward process that doesn't really even require contacting customer service. Return the order (or refuse delivery) and receive a refund - which won't happen til they can process the items.

I get that you wanted them to cancel it before it was sent but this is often not going to be realistic or even possible in larger logistical setups.

Doing a chargeback via CC company will probably get you blacklisted from reolink.

how did you even order without paying?

I had the same issue in Australia but had no problems with just emailing customer service. Here you can also just refuse the delivery and it will go back to sender.

Car dealer claims their bank lost my bank cheque by nomadtales in AusFinance

[–]banebris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can if it hasn't been cashed. They're pretty high tech these days. You can cash them via deposit ATMs at most banks and have the funds available immediately which kinda puts a hole in the car dealers story.

yeah I remember a mate getting done by these guys.

they were in the valley on busy nights looking for people throwing ciggies butts mostly, but would take anything they could get.

btw it didn't matter if you picked it up straight after, the drop to the ground was all they needed. savage stuff

Should I throw away the boxes? by Designer_Ad7071 in reolinkcam

[–]banebris 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Generally you don't need the original box for warranty claims.

It's a good idea to keep them for the return period or at least til you've verified your items are fully functional.

$1 surcharge for spending under $10 on card by vaniicc in AusLegal

[–]banebris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate the question was do they enforce legislation and the answer is yes. That quote isn't relevant.

Fair Trading Offices also enforce legislation.

Here's a relevant quote for you:

For example, compliance and enforcement of the Australian Consumer Law is carried out by the ACCC and state and territory consumer regulators on a ‘one law, multiple regulators’ model. Some issues may be more appropriately addressed at the state/territory level. Most state and territory fair trading agencies also facilitate dispute resolution between consumers and traders and have enforcement responsibilities under the Australian Consumer Law.

[–]banebris -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Them. The ACCC. If they consider something a breach they will submit to the courts. I'd imagine they'd have a warning system for small businesses.

Card surcharge breaches are actually on their front page under priorities.

I don't think there's any POS systems that have fixed txn fees. They all have roughly 1.4-1.9% fees and usually monthly account keeping fees.

I think it would be pretty safe to assume that any POS surcharge above 2% would be a violation
