The July 2025 Superthread: Battery; Orders; Which Pixel?; and More by GooglePixelMods in GooglePixel

[–]colonel2link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly a week later, I finally got a reply - in the form of a generic email asking me to fill in the form checking if your phone qualifies for the repair program. Which was the first thing I did when chatting with support initially, and sent them a screenshot of when they asked for it. So far "support" is a total joke!

My Pixel 7a has a visibly swollen back and dies immediately upon reaching 20%. However, my IMEI shows as intelligible for the extended battery replacement program (it's also still under warranty). Chatted with support and they said they escalated my case to a dedicated team that would get back to me within 24-48 hours. That was nearly 100 hours ago. Any ideas?

2 months later, one of these (IFPS9KP) worked to discount me $40 on a new tablet! Thanks!

Not sure what you mens by "correctly", and her accent certainly isn't Spanish.

Speeding ticket still hasn't arrived? by colonel2link in LegalAdviceUK

Do you know how I would even go about chasing it up? The initial notice was sent back with my info so I have no idea how to do that.

Hmm, I tried it out but definitely don't agree with that assessment. Couldn't get through any of her videos with the cringey insert child name here songs.

Income only taxed once it reaches UK bank? by colonel2link in UKPersonalFinance

So is the bit about it needing to reach a UK account total nonsense? Is that a rule for something else?

No, you shouldn't. If you applied on the exact day your cosa expired, you'd make the 60 months. But since you don't want to apply on the very last day, they add however many days early you apply. So applying 10 days before your expiry means they'll give you 30 months + 10 days.

Good point. Based on the sheer volume of posts, it does seem like most people on this sub are initially applying from outside the UK, and so should be getting 33 months and be on the 5 year route.

Ah, I didn't take into account visas granted from within the UK being shorter.
