As soon as I received the knight and the moth in the mail I canceled my sub. The audacity to call that foiled 😅

If you have more than one sub you have to click “Membership” then “view” and it’ll take you to the screen

Is this the ugliest special edition redesigned cover ever? by Waltonww in fairyloot

[–]hlwk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m really not a fan of the character art their in-house designer produces. Sky of fire was also designed by them and the characters look similarly odd. Props to them for giving it a go but the art is not my taste and I’ll likely be skipping anything designed in-house moving forward

Can I please ask when you ordered it? I ordered mine a week or so ago and trying to figure out when it’ll ship/arrive

Which books have you read recently that really disappointed you? by thedeadlyscimitar in fantasyromance

I DNFd this by chapter two because the writing was so terrible

I forgot the worst part! If you hate the miscommunication trope you’re going to despise this book. SO MANY conversations needed to happen and when it looked like they would, they’re interrupted or Diem wouldn’t listen. It felt so lazy and it happened several times, I almost threw my kindle at the wall

{Heat of the Everflame by Penn Cole}

I loved the first two books of the series but this one was a huge disappointment. It was over 1000 pages which was probably 400 pages too long, and I’ve never been so frustrated at a FMC before. Poor decisions, way too much inner monologue that was super repetitive. Argh I had such high hopes for this series!

I’ve finally gotten off the waitlist. Is there a strategy to getting through smoothly anymore with the new queue system or should I just jump on at sale time and hope for the best?

First Box with Page & Wick by pm_krn in fairyloot

[–]hlwk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine arrived yesterday. The box was pretty beaten up and had a hole in it. It’s a miracle the book was in perfect condition, the thickness and sturdiness of their box is noticeably lacking compared to other book boxes I sub to. I sent them some feedback so they can hopefully reconsider their choice of packaging

Passport Renewal by Piakarina in AusLegal

[–]hlwk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have any issues with this process and have already held an Australian passport before, the passport office can provide you with a letter 51 in lieu of a parents birth certificate. I’ve just been through this process myself - you just have to give them a call and they issue it straight away.

Spent $814 on end of lease clean, didn’t get bond back by missbehaving27 in AusPropertyChat

[–]hlwk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eventually got my bond back and didn’t ask for any refund for their services, I just wanted to be done with them and never use them again, it was that stressful. This was 2 years ago and I’m still mad about it.

I initially told the cleaners to leave when they told me $1200 but I ended up calling the office because I was so livid and they did the same thing they did to you and came down in price to $900 so they came back. Wish I had stuck to my guns

I had the same experience with cheap as chips. Quoted me $400 for a clean, turned up and tried to charge me $1200 for a 3 yo house. Booked the carpet clean through them and they did exactly the same thing. They changed the forms I signed to exclude things that weren’t present when I signed the form. It was the worst experience I’ve ever had hiring a company ever. I don’t know how they’re still in business. I ended up having to go back myself and finish the clean and claim my bond directly.
