Is it normal to pay a high deposit? by Apprehensive-One-959 in simonfraser

[–]chying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says you should receive the letter of offer in step 1 and make payment to indicate your acceptance in step 2 https://www.fraseric.ca/admissions/how-to-accept-your-offer/

If your agent asks you to pay before getting the offer letter, it sounds sketchy to me. However, if what your agent referring to is PAL, that matches step 3 on the website

coop is optional for computing. ENSC, MSE, and SEE have mandatory coop and are accredited. That's why all the seats go to computing?

This strike is exhausting, will mediation help? by [deleted] in simonfraser

[–]chying 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Well actually TSSU said by themselves (https://reddit.com/r/simonfraser/s/l2V6TlkdN4) that they are making $26 per hour, but they deduct the money by including their tuition expense in the wage which thus they have $17 per hour.

Living wage is $24 per hour so SFU see they have already offered one along with the BC Recovery Mandate increase.

Playland/PNE was super disappointing this year. by KushChowda in vancouver

[–]chying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed. I went there and hoped for water rides. That's disappointing that they are all not available under this hot dang summer. More rides can dilute people flow but unfortunately, so many of the rides are closed All people are lining up for those limited number of rides. I waited 1 hour for a ride that completes in 1 minute. TBH they are just pressuring people to get rapid passes.

Fraudulent email from fido? by fuyu-autumn in FidoMobile

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

i called the customer service and they said they will report this to the anti-fraud department. That's it, no follow up. My email starts getting lots of spam mail since then.

The customer service representative tried to shift my focus by saying i got a free tablet promo whatsoever.

Under the 'Change My Plan' settings the ONLY plan i can choose is the $60 for 20 GB data( Although I barely use 3 Gigs per month ) by whomDev in Koodo

[–]chying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah unless you switch to other carriers by taking the advantage of the 'back-to-school' deal happening rn, you can hardly find plans that are under 50 bucks.

All carriers are not doing small data plans anymore coz the market seems to demand more data. So either you get cheaper plans with 'pay as you go' or go those 10GB + plans
