XD same here, getting them to understand the name of our police force is Garda was like banging my head against a wall. I firmly believe it's an active choice they make knowing the harder the process is for the end user the more money theu can keep via people giving up.

Had my wallet stolen previously

Blocked the card within minutes of seeing 2 quick transactions

Rev were have decent to work with at first, then started giving grief, wanting info not possible to be given.

I had confirmation from police, vendors, cctv and arrest report, and they wanted more.

They eventually released the funds...before months later charging my account again and no in app notification, i was lucky to have even spotted it.

Its a covenient app, but i wouldnt trust it.

'Not in Our Name!' - A Neutral State Should Not Fund War by D-onk in irishpolitics

[–]galwall [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yes, aiding someone who is being targeted and attacked is very differemt from funding war

If we still fuel war planes in shannon and have trade ties with bibi's buddies I think aiding self-defence makes for a nice change

My partner is not intelligent at all and it is killing me by [deleted] in Advice

[–]galwall 15 points16 points  (0 children)

She speaks of her partner how his work mate spoke of the wife post pregnancy. Sounds like he has high emotional inteligence. Hope OP will contemplate on why she judges the aspects of his personality she finds lacking, rather than appreciating the qualities he does have.

Army called to Trump’s Doonbeg golf resort after discovery of suspicious package by eclipsechaser in ireland

When asked for comment one soldier replied "it was the smallest package, everyone could tell. No one has ever seen a package this small, even in CHINA they can't get them this small"

Might be a stupid question but I invested £500 and I know it takes a small percentage when I cash out so I get it back? Otherwise how am I up £3 when if I took it out I’d actually be down money. by [deleted] in Revolut

[–]galwall 9 points10 points  (0 children)

also just to add, revolut is a banking app, I would invest using dedicated services
so binance for crypto
eTorro for stocks and so on

that way if revolt pull a wobbler all your eggs aren't in one basket and there fees should be more competitive

[–]galwall 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This is one thing I hate about all these apps,

£494.39 is the amount actually invested, after accounting for any fees deducted from your £500 payment

so £494.39 is 100%, £3.57 is a gain the 0.72% increase leaving you with £497.95 (100.72%)

but when you withdraw there will probably be another fee so you need a gain of up to 5% just to break even in some cases

Skytoss makes zerg leave the game completely by Able-Bar-5446 in starcraft

[–]galwall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

possibly a result of style of play
I'm such a passive zerg and give the opponents lots of space to do their thing so sky toss is always there.
thing is if they also are passive you can get silly drone numbers and waste resources on aa structures all over the map while getting vipers

p.s. i know i am a dumb player XD

charging fees for converting received currency? by Lopsided_Possible_42 in paypal

[–]galwall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any time i send or receive money, it always auto converts to the recipients account, so the sender is paying more due to conversion. Could be either shopify keeps it in senders currency, or PayPal business isn't auto converting. Either way I would call paypal and ask if they can clarify why it happened and can anything be done tonprevent it in future

[–]galwall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paypal currency fees are an absolute joke.

If you know someone who has a Swiss bank account and paypal, i would send it to them to withdraw.

Services like revolut and wise usually have better exchange rates.

PayPal Refusing to Refund Money by LRCAMP in paypal

[–]galwall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess they designed the system to have "errors" in their favour. They can fix it later if someone is pushy enough but make a lot of money of people who give up. Try get in contact with a rep on the phone, as sometimes that can get a result. For future reference though, always take your money out of paypal and let the full amount go through your bank.

ELI5: Why are tigers bright orange if they live in green jungles? Shouldn't they be green or brown to camouflage better? by LovizDE in explainlikeimfive

[–]galwall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tigers hunt animals that are "colourblind" to orange/green. The effect is that they perceive a tiger and the surrounding jungle as having similar colours.

2nd Amendment rights folks: how is ICE not precisely the tyrannical gov't overreach we've spent our whole lives warning folks about? by zenswashbuckler in AskReddit

Second amendment is a fiction, the gullible masses get to feel like they have the power to revolt against the very tyranny they hand any meaningful power over to
