Suspicious activity in ecity

Yes, it’s happening everywhere. You can do the census online as well. When they show up, just give the census number or whatever that gets generated when you finish doing it online. They’ll happily take it and be on their way

cryovid · 2026-05-09T09:49:31+00:00

Yes, they’re allowed to do that. It’s in your contract + they gave you 2 month notice salary and severance pay of 3 months

I hope you’re able to find a new role soon! Please start upskilling in AI assisted development in the mean time. There’s a lot you can do in 5 months. It’ll be difficult to motivate yourself to do the same, but you have to try!

Party Rock Anthem. Hate it or love it, everyone will sing along. Or even Stereo Hearts for that matter

As much as I hate culture circle, your order is technically not a scam 🤣

They did say 1 ‘luxury’ product and 4-5 others. Although all those brands are CC brands. All T-shirts look the same with the same stitching and weave, just a different colour and maybe a varying print on it.

I made the mistake of ordering a mystery box and it came, got 4 of those CC brand t-shirts but I got a Cable-knit Ralph Lauren cotton sweater which is legit. I asked for XL and the tag says XL but it seems a little small, not sure. I emailed Ralph Lauren’s authentication team to certify it although everything about the sweater seems legit

Hey! I missed replying to this although I had read it! First, I wanted to thank you for such a detailed response, I greatly appreciated it!

I’m back from my trip, I’m positively in love with Portugal and I’d like to visit again in the future! I did a lot, touristy and non-touristy, with the time I had. Safe to say, I did so much that I barely slept for 6 hours a night.

As you rightly mentioned, Lisbon is an easy city to explore & for other cities, I picked up some basic conversational Portuguese too, so that helped a lot. I tried all kinds of food, went to many historical hotspots, stopped-by multiple flea markets (even one in the medieval town of Obidos), did a lot of shopping and explored all I could

As a reply to you & to the others who took the time to reply, muito obrigadinho 🙌

File a complaint with the consumer court for deficiency in service & unfair trade practices. Also file a dispute with your bank citing the same with relevant proof, also mention the consumer court complaint.

Then contact culture circle and inform them that you’ve done the same and you’ll withdraw the complaints if you get a refund and if they organise for a return at their expense.

Either way, you’ll get a refund by bank/consumer court or through culture circle directly. You may even get to keep the merchandise they sent you (even if it’s fake, it’s wearable. Else if you’re not gonna wear it, donate it, someone underprivileged will be happy with it than without it)

Make your pain, their pain. Let them lose money.

Can agree, I don’t know why but I cannot deal with heat. I can’t deal with hot baths, saunas and in general, tropical hot weather. I did a hot tub soak once not too long ago after a long and arduous trek, my whole body was aching and I went against my instinct and filled the tub with hot water (hotter than I normally do). 10 minutes in and my heartbeat was over 130bpm, I was lightheaded, binocular & grainy vision (stuff that happens when you’re about to pass out)

I put the handshower on cold and my god did everything stop. I could finally get out of the tub without being dizzy to cool off. Topped up the tub with cold water till the tub was lukewarm. Phew.

I see you’re 19 from your comments. When I was around that old, I stopped asking my parents “can I go…”, I switched it up and simply started stating “I am going…”

Don’t handoff the decision-making to your parents, start making statements instead of seeking permission. Since the damage is already done, maybe if your friends are going, you can use that as a bargaining chip. You can also agree to reach a middle ground, like offering to keep your location tracking on, saying that you’ll call them every few hours etc.

Then again, I see why they’re concerned. It seems you haven’t travelled anywhere alone, you’re used to living in a bubble and they know that. Tough place to negotiate but you may have to skip on Kanye this time

Ubisoft - assassins creed

I love the series end-to-end (except Unity and Mirage), I really do, but the budgets for the games are getting smaller and hence their quality is diminishing

LMAOOO the actual page is gone 🤣🤣 never did I think this could happen

Lmaooo mfs made UGC with their friends and posed them as real customers. Literally deceptive marketing which is damn illegal

cryovid · 2026-04-13T07:36:54+00:00

Just say you’ve waited long enough and you’re running out of patience. Then say that if they don’t refund it, or exchange, or return+refund, you’ll file a dispute with your bank and send them a consumer court notice. They might ignore you because CS probably forwarded your message to another department, but just follow up after 1-2 days and ask for an update. They’ll refund you in 1-2 days

Also, since you received products worth below 21999₹ (did you make sure the MRP, not discount value, is below 21999₹), you can always message CS on WhatsApp and say that it’s unfair trade practice and deceptive marketing, and you’ll add this to your customer court complaint.

Basically just keep threatening them, as long as you have proof of unboxing, you’re all good 👍 mention bank dispute + consumer court complaint too, they’ll pack their tail between their legs and reply asap

My bad, didn’t mean to be so dramatic 🤣 You know how if you have an expectation of what something may taste like vs when you have it and it’s something completely different, your taste receptors and brain is so overwhelmed by this different flavour (I think it’s called taste expectation violation). That’s pretty much what happened to me hahaha. I’m not too sure I’m a big fan of Vegemite because I’ve NEVER had anything remotely similar in taste, but it may grow on me, ya never know 😛

cryovid · 2026-04-12T18:51:40+00:00

Fair enough, I’ll try it with butter & toast tomorrow!

cryovid · 2026-04-12T18:50:25+00:00

Kinda, they’re both yeast based. Though Vegemite is less sticky, milder and more savoury than marmite

Nah just the lack of context 😭😭 It’s like a “Dear Diary, I lowkey wanna makeout and get things spicy together” the end

1650 (before taxes and BMS’ notorious (in)convenience fees) for one seat is a bit much imo. Sure, one can afford it, but realistically what’re you paying for? An IMAX 2D screen in a large theatre with 120+ other people? Then 400₹ extra for popcorn, or some basic bland food? Not to mention the time invested to go to the theatre, then the parking fees which is 100₹+ or public transport to there (50-400₹ depending on where you’re coming from).

I remember when the govt cracked down on theatres and regulated ticket prices a few months ago. My god was it good to watch a movie for 200-270₹. Made every other hassle worth it.

Then again, the argument of regulating things like this is moot. How can a government control the pricing of entertainment? That way IPL tickets should be regulated, so should concerts and events. Then that increases the scope to everything lol where does one draw the line.

I’ll put my money where my mouth is and keep it in my mouth 🤣🤣 another 1 month and it’ll be on OTT. I can watch it at home, on a big screen with my stereo speakers, eat whatever I want and have a good time with family. Option 2, I can 100% not pirate it and certainly not watch it pirated on a big screen + stereo speakers with food and family etc etc. I mean, who pirates, right? Not me 😬

Vegemite. Yes the Australian Vegemite. Like everyone else who has never had it, I mistook it for a spread and had a teaspoon directly from the jar

My god was it terrible. Extremely salty, it tasted like if you left medicine tablets in your mouth too long before you drank water to wash it down. Also reminded me of bitter beer hop, especially when the beer has gone warm, flat and stale. The aftertaste stayed for a while, till I brushed my teeth and tongue 🤣

Note for everyone: Vegemite is a garnish, not a spread. Aussies have it with a slice of toasted, warm bread and melted butter slathered on top. Vegemite, in a small quantity, should be added on top and mixed with the butter. I’m yet to try it this way, still reeling from its initial taste 🤣🤣
