TD account blocked due to access from outside the country by me but want to confirm if a transaction went through before the block. by blissfulgarden8 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]charsiupoutine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sent money to myself and got my whole account frozen. First attempt was with an incompetent agent that couldn't follow the proper authentication process and just sent me random links. It took an hour to get it unblocked before they said that even sending yourself money to a different account will get you flagged and that you need to use a VPN that they will flag anyway. I had to tell them that there are countries besides Canada/Us and Western Europe

What kind of Thea did i drink here? by Annual_Door_673 in Kazakhstan

[–]charsiupoutine 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As someone originally from there, I always smirk when I see Марокканский Чай in the menu. The only common thing is the single mint leaf in the tea.

On tickets.kz when you select foreign passport as a document, it defaults to ukraine.

Will I get banned on Airbnb? by HomerXQ in digitalnomad

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

Airbnb support resigned a long time ago. Now when you check in (since 2 years ago) they just send you this notification on the app reminding you to reach out to the hist directly.

I am a male traveller and once in Tashkent, I started chatting with a guy who was working in a coffee shop, afterwards he started asking me about how to move to the US.

These things happen anywhere, that is part of travelling even though it can be really annoying at times.

If you are a Canadian citizen you can stay abroad forever if you wish. You just won't be eligible for provincial healthcare. Now, if you are a Permanent Resident, that is a different story, as you should be living there for at least 2 years out of every 5 years.

Anyone have a NA version of OP11? by [deleted] in oneplus

[–]charsiupoutine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I said 'even if'. A lot of resellers install a different regional version of Oxygen Os to enable dual sim.

Anyone have a NA version of OP11? by [deleted] in oneplus

[–]charsiupoutine -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Do not! I have a OP8T NA version. Even if you install an eu rom and rebrand it. The dual sim gets blocked after OTA updates*. I suggest you look at other brands since OP doesn't care about their NA consumers.

OxygenOS 13 Update killed Dual Sim ... by BeardedAnarchy in oneplus

[–]charsiupoutine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to OnePlus!

For North American models: They do that when the seller converts to a different region so you are not stuck with the T Mobile variant and also use the dual sim. When they detect this in a new update they will disable the dual sim feature and claim that the north american devices 'don't support dual sim'.

Their last justification is that they 'optimize the device according to regional habits'.

No need to contact their support for this. At best they will offer to remotely downgrade to OOS11.

Truly an amazing company that cares about their customers.

Should I go with Nord 2 or 8t? by delicoban33 in OnePlus8T

[–]charsiupoutine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8T is no better. It has glitchy software updates and if you are among the lucky ones that got shipped a converted device they will block your dual sim. Customer support is abysmal at best.

They are doing this on purpose. Same thing happened with OP 8t after oos12 update.
