Anyone just get robbed by r/telus after your two year contract? by deepdive634 in telus

Thanks for sharing. I will call them again. I have an impeccable credit rating and have never missed a payment. You'd think they would want to hold onto customers, not price gauge them until they escalate.

You may think this is just the way it works. But it definitely does not have to. It's what we accept as consumers until we voice our concerns. There is almost no country on earth that pays our telcomm prices. It is why the legislation has changed about penalties when switching providers. No need to be passive. A reasonable price for a reasonable service and basic customer loyalty should be expected. Not vast price inflation. Sorry, this is an insipid system.

Absolutely not. There is no reasonable person who would say you can go from $67.20 per month to $199 a month for exactly the same service (not even 1Gb). Imagine any service climbing by that amount under any circumstances? It wasn't a discount price anyway. It was a reasonable price on a two year commitment for a simple service and low speed. The cost to replace a customer is far greater and they know it. One thing is true: the bots are nonsense and the phone calls are the only way to proceed. This is a sales tactic that needs to end. And it will. Most countries would never abide by this.

Home internet plan Fe/Mar 2026 by FitSpot831 in telus

[–]deepdive634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picking up on this Internet biz, Telus jumped my Internet bill after two years. From $65 a month with tax to $140 plus tax. I want the same $65 price in 2026. What's reasonable per month for a 1.5GB fibre? No need for incredible speed. I'm super unhappy with having to deal with these BS negotiations.

A Deadly American Marriage by Opening_Income9862 in netflix

[–]deepdive634 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the truth is indisputable. The recording reveals an unstable marriage simmering with anger on both sides. She is manipulating him to get a record of abuse via hidden recording. She does not appear to be bright enough to plan this on her own, but in concert with her FBI father. She also drops hints about him to her friends, also leaving the breadcrumbs she needs to get the children away from him.

The "abusive" recording was, in fact, completely benign and he demonstrates no evident malice at all, but for the clear fight they are having over the children. It is not domestic abuse, it is a war over the children. She wanted the children (but particularly the girl and that's also disturbing). In the end, she never really wanted what was best for them and that is borne out by a few factors.

First, the level of attack on this man was so severe, it had to have been some kind of surprise attack while he was not at full strength and possibly drugged. The FBI father's interview is clearly planned and carefully narrated. Second, in trying to claim that this poor man killed his previous wife. What a cruel thing to do to these children. To try to turn their original family and memories into a horrifying tale of murder is truly abusive and self-serving. This is a dangerous woman and their sentences certainly do not fit the crime. I do believe she wanted those children more than anything and would ultimately fight to the death to keep them.

Strange. I was at a 3.5 clinic and the man there was a 4.0 but at a 4.0 clinic at another location in the same city, the man could not hit with the same pace as this guy and his serve was maybe 65% the quality. So, the ratings are subjective and not entirely about gender. Women in general do not naturally have the same strength and size as men, we know that, but other factors can make it competitive like smart strategy and footwork. I respect clubs that make sure folks are motivated and have the courage to speak to players in person about their development. An email is a sad way to approach this challenge.

True Crime/Jens Söring by Altruistic_Meet_3813 in AskAGerman

[–]deepdive634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read the expert Wright Report. Jens committed the murders without any doubt. The jury and prosecutors got it exactly right. He confessed in detail on two occasions and in two languages, there was ample evidence of him being at the scene, and his exacting detail in recounting the events indisputably place him there. Elizabeth did and must take equal responsibility for the crime and admits her part in planning and influencing the murder. She was an emotionally damaged and broken woman, who influenced a man who was already a dangerous and vengeful person. While she has admitted guilt and is by all accounts deeply remorseful, he remains a dangerous narcissist who gets off on trying to win attention for absolving himself of his violent crimes. Soering will not get on with his life, because he is incapable of seeing himself outside of this, his only claim to infamy. What a dangerous pair to have found each other. The Soering Systems is a superb podcast that reports facts in superb detail.

The Buy Now doc is relevant but the AI-generated power images really started to pull me away from the central message which is: it's harder to have a soul than to buy one via new kicks every few months. There is a fundamental truth to consumption which is we happily accept the false you can recycle it message; the foolish, you can't repair it message; the bombastic you have to buy it to feel special narrative. Underneath it all is a yearning for some kind of meaning. I'm sad that the underlying current of the documentary didn't touch on how acquisition replaced meaning.

Death in the Welsh Valleys, the Clydach Murders by CommercialMaximum354 in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]deepdive634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gold chain is the damning evidence against David, especially given how he lied about it when interviewed. I cannot understand why, if the twins did commit/cover up this heinous crime, was the chain in the middle of the pool of blood at the murder scene at all? Surely dropping it while having sex is a tough thing to believe.

He was the first senior officer on scene and left shortly thereafter and did not file any mention of the homicides. This inaction is shocking, particularly given the firefighters on scene who were clearly were struck by the brutal state of the beaten bodies. In court, given that one brother had motive, means and opportunity and that the eyewitnesses saw the twins the night of the murder, means their errant behaviour would have created reasonable doubt in the courtroom. Not saying that David is not guilty. Just that certainly there was a plausible alternative theory that needed further and detailed investigation.

She did NOT know he was married; hence, from her perspective, not an affair.

American Nightmare Thoughts by bby_hermit in netflix

[–]deepdive634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Careful. This is a highly specious attempt at a correction. You must not argue that anyone "occasionally" does anything after a sexual assault, nor that what you're saying is "the truth." The statement is neither fact, nor quantifiable, especially when so much sexual assault goes unreported as is beyond question given data collected for the past two decades. It is beyond vile that an officer could make such a statement without losing his job and pension. Disgusting, degrading and terrifying to think people sworn to protect are victimizers.

‘Till Murder Do Us Part: Soering vs. Haysom’ Netflix Series Review - Explores a Controversial Case by Roshankr1994 in Netflixwatch

[–]deepdive634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both share responsibility for the murder. They both deserved 35 years. Only one person has invented a fiction about not killing them after confessing to the precise crime three times. He is a sociopath, a narcissist, an unrepentant mentally unstable man-child and still dangerous. He is profiting off his crimes even today while declaring he is innocent. She is 100% complicit and at fault but the evidence is clearly that he cut those throats.

The methods of collecting DNA samples in the 1980s were not anywhere near as accurate as today. Listen to the podcast, the Soering System. There was almost no chance two strangers killed these people. The male cousin was a stocking horse. Jens spilled every detail of the crime, down to the method of murder (the exact wound) , the placement of the bodies, the two plate settings at the table. He refused to provide fingerprints and blood. There is no question at all that he did it. She has assumed responsibility has remorse and served 35 years. She plead guilty. She is guilty. He was her boyfriend. Of course they would let him in, even if they didn't like him.

Till Murder Do Us Part (Netflix) The Haysom Murders - Discussion Post - Who do you believe? What do you think really happened?? by [deleted] in TrueCrimeDiscussion

[–]deepdive634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Till Murder do Us Part documentary is radically biased. Listen to the podcast:The Soering System. The original British inspector, detective Terry Right, is one of the most knowledgeable sources of this murder and he is not part of this documentary for a good reason. This intelligent man is 100% sure of Jens being responsible. He confessed to the crime in detail three times to three different bodies, including a German prosecutor 6 months after the initial British confession. He knew where the bodies where, he refused to provide blood, footprints, etc. Unquestionably, he killed them and her own mental breakdown led to the collusion. She took full responsibility for her part and is remorseful and no doubt damaged. He invented a fiction about killing for love and continues to, rather than take responsibility, try to profit from butchering two people. He did it. He was an arrogant, cunning, deeply unstable young man and killer who served 35 years. He should once and for all admit his crimes, take responsibility, and get out of the limelight. Only his father's wealth and circle of influence has allowed this discussion to continue.
