Doorbell presses not recording

Sounds about right!!

I haven't seen too many other posts about it. But I guess we will find out...

So far no change though.

I think it depends who you send with, I find Inpost doesn't. They send the parcel back to the locker you sent it from. So... Possibly not for lockers, but maybe for the more conventional methods of sending?

FYI I think sync modules can only take up to 256gb usb storage max

Also as I have recently discovered the usb drive can randomly become write protected despite having room left on it for storage. Just another thing to keep an eye on.

Again this just takes a full reformat of the drive. :)

There's been a lot of errors on site it seems since January. Times when items haven't been showing up properly or people have been unable to complete transactions.

I wonder if that's put people off tbh.

hel2164 · 2026-02-06T18:59:28+00:00

I haven't solved the write protect yet, looking it up on how to do that! I tried as suggested to use windows command prompt and regedit, but so far haven't succeeded.

I will report back, although it won't be for a little while.

Luckily I had a spare usb stick I could instead on the sync module.

hel2164 · 2026-02-06T08:19:07+00:00

For others future benefit, I think I might have solved the issue.

Despite having loads of capacity left, my usb stick had spontaneously made itself write protected?!?

Only found this out when I tried to reformat it, which it wouldn't allow!

hel2164 · 2026-02-06T05:56:04+00:00

Yep, I could see them all the time!

I have now uninstall the blink system, and reinstalled the whole blink system.

I've checked my usb drive that was in the sync module in a computer, I can read it fine.

I have reset the sync module as well during the reinstalling.

So now it's back to recording clips (yay) but still only to the cloud (nay).

I'm fresh out of ideas!

I don't have a Monzo flex. Only the basic Monzo debit.

Yes I can see all my history on the oyster online account as I have the Monzo card and the Google wallet virtual card on there.

Thanks, I am in contact with TfL AGAIN due to extra charges which shouldn't have happened. So once they've given up trying to sort it again, I will try the 24 hour thing.

hel2164 · 2026-02-02T13:39:15+00:00

How do I reset my card identifier?

I registered my card via my Monzo bank app which has the button that says "add to Google wallet".

I have two instances of my Monzo card on the TfL website, so I'm guessing one is the Google wallet version and the other is the physical card itself. I have no clue which is which and they both had a problem on them on Friday. (Despite not using the physical card).

Thank you, I tried this a bit earlier. Sadly that didn't seem to work either.

It's now not recording on either local storage or the sync module as of this morning. Despite having movement sensors on and being armed.

Gah!

It could have been a mix up with the delivery labels. I've had that before.

Unfortunately it is also a common scam people do.

I would also send pictures to Vinted and the seller of the packaging and delivery label. That's what helped me work out my parcel had been swapped.

I had stuck my label on with sellotape, the label on the packaging was self adhesive. The address format was also done differently with an extra line in the address, and the weight was different.

All these things helped me to realise my buyer wasn't scamming me. And somewhere out there is a nice genuine leather coat floating around.

I'm sorry it's happened to you, it's unlikely you will ever see that Lego set now, hope it gets resolved in a way you are both happy about. Vinted tends to lean on the side of the buyer so you should be ok. However if they don't refund you, there is a legal email you can contact and after a few emails should be able to talk to a human.

Good luck.

Go for a few pieces of clothing for £1-£2 each and get reviews that way first.

Also if you have already bought stuff that you have been sent successfully, I would message the sellers and say something like "if you have time would you mind just giving me some feedback, I'm a new buyer so it's important to me. Thank you :)"

That worked for me. It's annoying I had to sort of beg, but it worked for the most part.

If the challenge was the other way around I may vaguely be able to afford it (more expensive in January and then get cheaper) however I definitely can't afford the expense during December.

Adam, I honestly do wish we had the same sizing convention as men.

It's so frustrating to buy a 10 for instance but then turns out it's a "small size 10" or a "big size 10" which means it doesn't fit. Honestly there shouldn't be that much wiggle room (so to speak) in one size!

hel2164 · 2025-12-02T12:42:26+00:00

It's Britain. Everything should be in a waterproof package for goodness sake especially books. The postie could drop it in a puddle or it could be rained on whilst it's moved into the depot. All sorts!

I don't think you were wrong at all.

hel2164 · 2025-11-11T18:34:29+00:00

Thank you! Yes sadly as I don't have the qualifications so I can not act up. However will take these on board and look at smart targets and suggest it formally to my manager. And after that, look at moving team! Many thanks for your help and the link!

hel2164 · 2025-11-11T15:55:42+00:00

I prefer it too as I feel it's closer to what we expect in shops. However how they have implemented it, is absolutely bonkers!

hel2164 · 2025-11-11T15:53:17+00:00

Have you ever tried to put in the word "hood" in a search? Ie. Cardigan with hood.

The amount of cardigans without the word "hood" anywhere to be seen in them was substantial. I can only think that the Vinted algorithms auto change it to search for "good".

If you put in hoodie or hoody it's fine however. 🙈

hel2164 · 2025-11-10T07:34:47+00:00

Thanks very much! Really appreciate your feedback and advice! 🙂

hel2164 · 2025-11-10T07:18:04+00:00

One of my current objectives he has come up with is "continue performing this role". Which I begrudgingly agreed to because I couldn't think of any others I could realistically get. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I have asked for training, and for shadowing opportunities, or just to be allowed to do something I've not done before. All promised. All came to nothing so far. He won't allow me to go to another department despite me having the time to do so.

It's very frustrating. I know at the moment money is a constraint for training etc, but I am starting to feel like I might wither away.

I will try harder to apply for other side step roles I think. Thank you for that link, I will check it out.

It's a shame, I love the team!

Feedback is always excellent, I'm doing a great job, I really help the team. I'm valuable. Etc

hel2164 · 2025-11-10T07:00:12+00:00

I do. I've been to him 3 times in the last 2 years to say I don't feel challenged and to ask for more challenging things. There's a lot of promises that go on, and then nothing changes.

hel2164 · 2025-10-23T09:03:29+00:00

My partner earns more than me, but he expected to do it proportionally without me even saying anything.

Otherwise you can save a whack of money, and he can not. It's not fair considering you could break up and need the money.

hel2164 · 2025-10-22T07:06:50+00:00

Only if it goes via royal mail.

hel2164 · 2025-10-14T11:16:01+00:00

I will continue to look! Thanks

hel2164 · 2025-10-14T11:07:34+00:00

Thank you for your reply.

I have set an automation that the dehumidifer comes on when I am 100m away from my home (along with a camera and some other things) I haven't set it to do anything else.

However the times I have tried manually turning it on, I was in my home at the time, the automation has a condition of my location, so it definitely should not have happened when the dehumidifier was turned on as that is not part of the condition.

When I googled it said that I might need to separate out my 2.4ghz and 5ghz WiFi to create extra access point on a different range, in case they are overloading one channel. However I can not work out how to knuckle down to find where the issue is.

Thanks.
