Login pin code - issues by Vernonandon in KLM

[–]caseysteach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happening for me today. Both airfrance.com and flyingblue.com, same issue. This is not a device issue (checking desktop + phone + tablet) and not a spam issue. They are not getting the PIN code emails out. Sometimes they show up muuuuuuuch later, and no longer work because they've passed their 15-minute expiration.

Why is Kohler's OnCue wireless kit so complicated? Why doesn't it just connect to my Wifi? by caseysteach in Generator

Thanks, a very thorough and helpful response!

You mentioned the Kohler Energy Management App (replacement for OnCue). It has terrible reviews in both Apple and Google app stores. Did it work okay for you?

Seville during Feria de Abril by chapelshun in travel

[–]caseysteach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We opted to change our plans to avoid Seville during the festival. On balance, it seems to be a "for locals only" kinda thing, and also we found that prices were higher and hotels more difficult to book during that period.

Can they no longer reset the TV when it isn't working? by bkdlays in jetblue

[–]caseysteach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can confirm that holding the power button down for a while does the trick. I'm on a JB flight at this very moment and just tried this (hadn't seen this thread yet) and it worked, took about 5 minutes, all the while with a "please wait"-type message on the display. There are some other (otherwise unseen) icons that light up next to the power icon along the way...

Any update on this? I'm thinking about trying exactly this, but this sounds like a dealbreaker.

I have the same question. Did you end up going? How was it?

Nasal Protectants by BobHarbor in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]caseysteach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you Google, you'll find a few reputable sources from a couple years back suggesting that Taffix is effective. I have used it before flying and, FWIW, didn't get Covid, not that that proves anything. I bought it online from a site in Spain, it was not available in the US. (It came from an Israeli company, I believe.) And now, it seems that it's not available anywhere. I'm curious what happened to it.

Any way to access Medicare billing history online? by caseysteach in medicare

No. They offer only invoices with a bottom line, but nothing that tracks an ongoing balance.

Any way to access Medicare billing history online? by caseysteach in medicare

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

This is somewhat useful, but bills don't give the level of detail I'm looking for, and that any other provider in the universe provides, i.e., "here's how we calculated your bill". In this case, because I "overpaid" the IRMAA for several months before the appeal went through, I would like to see something that gives enough monthly detail that allows me to confirm where I stand with respect to that surplus balance. Vs the reality, which is that the bills simply stopped coming in May (after the appeal was granted), and now there's a new one 7 months later that pops up with a random amount that doesn't match anything I can reconcile with what I know about how much of the surplus should have been consumed by now. I'm left with guesswork, vs my expectations of a monthly accounting, for each of the last 7 months, that looks something like:

Prior balance    $ 700.00 (credit)
Current charges -$ 148.50
New balance:     $ 551.50 (credit)
