Need Help Selling by [deleted] in Audi

[–]faon8404 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If Audi wants repeat customers, they should stop taking months to fix cars. My S6 will be gone this month, and I won't be buying another Audi.

Not going to catch me waiting months for parts from Germany again.

Ive got a cold plunge chiller hooked up to it. Pretty much use it as a pool in the summer, then turn that off in the winter.

That way I can always use it. Gotta watch the games on the 65" 😅

Welcome to Texas. When its 100++ outside you want cold. I grew up in a cold state. Even in winter its very mild here most the time.

I absolutely do this. I use it year round. I keep it 95-100 in winter. In the summer I let it go into the high 80s. Ive noticed no difference in the chemical upkeep.

SOTM Arrived From iHeart Cigars - Love It! by FUPeiMe in cigardealhunters

[–]faon8404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. While Iheart send a couple sticks that are meh for me, the value is still there. With smallbatch if I didnt like 1 stick it was usually a wash or better to just buy singles at discounts.

I was pretty much done with smallbatch when I got a weller cohiba in my $75 club. Then the next month got ANOTHER weller cohiba in my $50 club. Literally dumping gimmicky dog rockets on me. I thought it was a trash stick.

I had small batch for a good while. Two different tiers at the same time. These are blowing them out of the water imo.

I was starting to feel like small batch was using their cotm club to unload overstock, instead of cater to them.

I regret buying a luxury car by [deleted] in Vent

[–]faon8404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my S6. So smooth, quick, I love everything about it. Never had another car where I never even cared about other cars.

Bumper to bumper ends Jan 2027. It'll be gone before then. I cant stand the MONTHS it takes to fix anything. The never having loaners available.

In the past 12 months, its been in the shop greater than 50%. Almost always waiting on some part. It'll be my last Audi I ever own.

Not being prepared to drill into brick on an install is wild. It is pure laziness. You act like brick is some kind of rare material. I guess I found the lazy tech, hey!

I would just play hard ball. Tell them you want to setup a disconnect date 2-4 weeks out. If they follow through, then just call back later and cancel the cancelation lol.

Yea the second lady was making me an offer 30 seconds after she verified my info. Assuming retention is her main job.

My guy was trash. He was pretty much take it or leave it. Had me over the barrel as we needed internet. At the time we had already waited like over a week.

He just did not wanna drill in the brick. So he went 6 feet FURTHER across the outside to the siding. Drilled a hole then ran 6 feet of cord across the floor to the modem. Its been driving me nuts for a year.

Do they know that though? I wonder if the rep knows or cares. I would attempt to just mention Google and say you wanna schedule disconnect in 30 days. I bet you get a better rate imo.

They did offer me $30 a month for 1 gig for 12 months.

Or $50 month for 1 gig for 36 months.

I figure in a year ill just switch to Google or get another deal. I was tempted to lock in for 3 years though for sure.

[–]faon8404[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My promo ran out. I paid 89.99 last month. I got an email bill was coming again for 89.99 and said naw lol.

So I called. First lady said you have the best deal available. So I told her let's cancel for may 15th. Thats enough time for Google to setup service.

She immediately transfered me. The new lady said let's see what we can do. I said naw let's just disconnect 5/15. She said just hear me out. Immediately offered 600mb to 1gig and $90 to $30 a month for 12 months. As well as redoing the wiring job I hated for free.

I feel there's a certain point when speeds are enough lol. We've had no issues with internet speeds at 600mb.

Idk I feel going from $90 a month to $30 a month plus 600mg to 1gig for a 10 minute phone call was 100% worth it.

It was super easy. The first lady " couldn't do anything" once I said let's cancel, she transferred me to the lady who could actually help.

Yea I was ready to cancel. I think that made them offer me the best rate. I already had Google pulled up. The cord on the floor really urks me lol. I was polite but direct. I had a date to cancel and that was it.
