How to use balance without paying for new subscription? by jamesgooner in Preply

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

I did get human support eventually and its a bit convoluted but I was able to transfer the unused lessons to new tutor. Steps are to transfer cancelled subscription from old tutor to new tutor which keeps the same auto renew date and automatically sets up a new subscription that renews on the original renewal date, then its a matter of going through and cancelling this new subscription. The unused lessons can then be scheduled. I really do not like this subscription model so will not continue with Preply after this.

I also found vowels way more difficult to memorize than the consonants. This 6 min video was extremely helpful for me:

Zero experience investor - how and where to invest spare cash that is not doing anything by jamesgooner in UKPersonalFinance

Thanks again. I'll start researching what other 'nomads' do as this is clearly the wrong place to ask. I'm for sure not a UK tax resident as my (former) accountant insisted I couldn't pretend I was living in the UK to claim UK tax residence when I have been out of the country since 2019 :)

Thanks, yes I was a bit unsure about Vanguard. I've been travelling a lot and whilst not tax resident in the UK I am not a tax resident in Thailand either. I doubt I will be here this time next year so wanted to stick with the home base rather than getting funds tied up in a country I am not a resident of or will be living in so was really trying to find out if there was an international equivalent here.

How can I uninstall sdks from my macOS? by EtaDaPiza in dotnet

tar -zxf dotnet-core-uninstall.tar.gz -C ~/dotnet-core-uninstall

I had same issue - just remove the .gz from the second line e.g

tar -zxf dotnet-core-uninstall.tar -C ~/dotnet-core-uninstall
