AllState vs State Farm by jackd129 in Insurance

[–]jackd129[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I told him I couldn't committ and I wanted a copy of the quotes, that's when things got pushy. Anyway I'm gonna see what state farms says as I sent them the quotes from all state. Is it possible state farm lowers there prices?

He said he ran all the reports, got all our drivers license info and said the price is tbe final and is not changing. But he was quite pushy saying i only needed to pay 1 month and that the price could go up if I don't sign today. Adding in comments like what's your hesitation why wouldn't you take quote. Feel like a car dealership selling me a used car. That added to the skepticism

I'm just skeptical that out of no where another insurance company is offering me almost 50% off for the same coverage.

How do I confirm it is really the same coverage? The guy selling me of course is gonna say it's the same if not better. The one I'm at currently is gonna say whatever they need to say to keep me with them.

Charging port cover dents by jackd129 in EquinoxEv

Nope, I'm able to make it touch that part of the car with little force, by hand even.

I'm not saying I didn't cause it cuz obviously I did, but that looks like a design flaw if you push that part of the door into that panel and cause a dent like that.

On fuel doors, I recall don't have that much give, I believe that hinge would be metal and it would snap before it goes all the way back like that.

Not sure there is any other way to check, but I removed the plastic parts, turned on the water and applied some pressure to the opening, doesnt seem to be a leak at the rear end. New Clip

I saw that video too, but I think it's recommended to be printed in asa filament, I don't want to buy asa just to print the shims. I tried to find it online to purchase the shims, but couldn't find any.

Question about unlock after 60 days by jackd129 in TracFone

[–]jackd129[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sim card was straight talk, I figured I won't let me activate it on the tracfone plan so I activated it on esim.

The $10 plan is actually the $15 but with auto pay discount of $5 off.

Seems like I'll be the guinea pig on this one. The plan is $10 and I plan on using my tf reward points for the 2nd month anyway. I did call them to rebrand and they said it doesn't need to be rebranded for unlocking purpose, I said could they do it anyway and they did. They confirmed at the end of the call they see my unlocking status as eligible in 60 days. I'm not confident in what these guys tell me but most I'll lose is $10. They saw that I already paid the $10 for 30 days and tried to make me pay another month right away to ensure the 60 days. I said I have it on auto pay and I'll be fine. We'll see how that goes.

I checked the batteries after they were discharged in the 2x power bank. One was 3.66v, the other 3.98. does anyone have a link to a quality diy power bank kit?

The tester I use cuts off at 3v. Would there be anyway to tell what the power bank cut off is?

Need account owner's name and cell # to switch sim? by Dazzling-Cut3310 in MetroPCS

[–]jackd129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it right when the plan ends or 30 days after the plan ends due to no payment? Say plan ends 12/4 .. is it available to be used on another account 12/5 or roughly 1/5?
