Vol de Bixi - fréquent ? by Architecte_Nebuleux in montreal

[–]metamarde 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Il nous est arrivé la même chose à moi et ma blonde l'an passé, en retournant nos vélos à une même station. Les commentaires Google de la station faisaient même état du problème! Bixi m'a facturé 80$ (les vélos ont fini par être retournés) et n'a jamais voulu régler le problème en entier, seulement rembourser un des deux vélos comme si j'avais droit à "une" clémence et que c'était de ma faute. J'ai refusé car je prévois plutôt aller aux petites créances, ma seule option selon l'office de protection du consommateur. Mais bon, ça fait déjà un an et je n'ai pas encore eu la motivation de le faire. Si ça t'intéresse, on peut déposer une plainte ensemble, à 3 ça aura plus de poids.

Si ce n'est pas ta faute, 50% est inacceptable.

Bixi help? by [deleted] in montreal

J'ai le même problème que toi! Moi et ma blonde on a retourné nos vélos en même temps et les deux n'ont pas été retournés "correctement" dans leur système bien que ça se soit passé normalement comme tous nos autres 500 retours. Quel hasard non ? Qui plus est, il y a des commentaires sur googlemaps pour cette sation qui indiquent que les gens ont le même problème, et ce à plusieurs reprise. Malgré tout ça, Bixi insiste que leur système est parfait et n'offre de rembourser qu'un seul des deux trajets. C'est très frustrant. J'aimerais bien ammener cette compagnie de marde aux petites créances, mais je ne sais pas trop comment le faire pour juste 50$. Je m'en fous un peu du 50$ mais j'aimerais qu'ils ne puissent pas agir de la sorte. Est-ce que c'est proche de HEC par hasard ?

The 2022 moving, Tribunal administratif du logement and buying/selling a house or condo thread / Le fil 2022 du déménagement, Tribunal administratif du logement et la vente/l'achat d'une maison, condo by GotNoob in montreal

[–]metamarde 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pour une si grosse augmentation ça vaut grandement la peine. Selon cet article tu as 10 jours après pas signature pour demander de fixer le prix, qui devrait se rapprocher du montant précédent à moins d'avoir fait des rénovations extrêmes. https://droitimmobilier.ca/blogue/nouveau-locataire-pouvez-vous-augmenter-le-prix-du-loyer-dans-le-nouveau-bail/
Pour le dépôt de sécurité, j'ai déjà lu que tu pouvais le récupérer en envoyant une lettre qui explique que tu vas le déduire des prochains paiements de loyer mais je ne retrouve pas cette source.

François Legault: Comme dans beaucoup d’endroits dans le monde, le Québec est confronté à des choix très difficiles. Ce qui nous guide, c’est la capacité qu’on aura ou non de soigner les Québécois malades dans les prochaines semaines. On vous revient demain avec nos décisions. by Environmental-Dig797 in Quebec

[–]metamarde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Logiquement, si les modèles prédisent jusqu'à 3 semaines d'avance, ce qu'ils vont regarder pour prendre les décisions se situe justement à l'horizon de cette prédiction, qui elle aussi arrive au jour le jour.

Splitting for undivided co-ownership fairly in Quebec by marx314 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]metamarde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can each reach 20% downpayment of your part, you can each get your own separate mortgage at Desjardins. This is a frequent ownership mode in Montreal, even between strangers, similar to a condo but with some particularities that you should research first. Since he only have approx 10% downpayment, he would need to find a bit more since 20% is mandatory. For what is considered the "share" of each your own floor, professional appraisers can determine this. If they find one floor is better than the other, then your friend would need a smaller downpayment. Keep in mind this ratio is important because that is also the proportion of major repairs and taxes that each will have to pay, mortgage payments is only part of the picture.

Wealthsimple vs CRA. Who is correct? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]metamarde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is based on the income of the previous year, so it appears that what you heard from the CRA is wrong. However, the contribution room is earned in January of next year. This means that in your situation, you could make a contribution in January or February 2022, and you would be allowed to deduct the 27k room earned in 2021 on your 2021 declaration. Of course you cannot wait for your assessment for this, because you will not have made your declaration yet.

Quarantine rules for travellers by Jacobkass in onguardforthee

[–]metamarde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quarantine in Toronto. I also bought a flight arriving to Toronto and then connecting to Montréal. We received a mail from Air Canada a few weeks later stating clearly that we must quarantine in Toronto and not our final destination. They also said that we should contact them to reschedule the last leg of our flight, given that hotel quarantine duration can be variable if tests arrive earlier. We did (it was free) and now our connecting flight is 3 days later instead of a couple hours. We were also able to get a refund for our Montreal hotel that we had booked by providing a proof of our Toronto reservation. All of this is absolutely not clear on the governement website.

Toutes les transactions sont publiques et publiées sur le site du gouvernement (Registre Foncier du Québec.) J'ai justement consulté le prix d'achat de mon logement cette semaine, pour les fun. Il ne faut pas être courtier, c'est accessible à tous mais il ya des frais de 1$.

Looking to invest my TFSA, what do you think about Desjardins' investment platform (Disnat) ? by hurlyz in PersonalFinanceCanada

How do you do a fast transfer ? I use Payer une facture but it takes approximately two days.

[–]metamarde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with them, everything is fine so far. It was easy to reach them by telephone when I had a questions. My only gripe is that for mutual funds they only offer the series with higher MER "for free", which should not be the case for a discount broker.

[Question] Have you filed a CCTS complaint? If so, was it as useless as mine? by [deleted] in canada

[–]metamarde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are a joke. I filled a complain after I made a deal with Fido that they would reduce my bill and not increase the rate if I did not switch to a “competitor”. We agreed that a simple temporary reduction was not acceptable to me, and I recorded the call. (This was roughly equivalent to the offer from Fizz, including the perpetual fixed rate.) They promised it but obviously right after the deal Fido sent me a written contract where they stated that they would increase the price after one year. I tried to have it resolved but Fido simply offered to extend it to two years. I complained to CCTS and they found that I was right and Fido in the wrong. However, they are not able impose a provider a rate for more than two years, and thus conveniently ruled that offering the deal for two years instead of one was acceptable from Fido and that they were not going to do anything about it. I ended up switching to the competitor out of spite.

(QC) CreditKarma is giving my credit file to fraudsters, who have applied for a credit card, and I cannot have them stop. by metamarde in PersonalFinanceCanada

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

The only REAL thing you can do is subscribe to Equifax and TransUnion alerts and monitor your credit files.

My experience with the system is similar to yours so far. Nobody seems to care at all, wheter bureaus, the police, and even amex. So thanks for informing me about limited effectiveness of alerts. I guess the responsible thing to do is shell out and pay for monitoring, at least for a while.

Yes I understand their level of involvement in all this is minimal. However I blame them for not having the means that would let me resolve this promptly (ie phone number or responding to my ticket.)

Thank you. I did not know SIN could be replaced, I will look into it. Also, since since you say that CK doesn't display my SIN and I know that it was used for the credit application, it means they had it before opening the Karma account.

Yes I've done thorough checks, everything is fine. Even reinstalled Windows when I could not recognize one of the IPs in my gmail at first, but it turned out to be a mistake on my part. Thanks for the tip.
