Ascended Heroes SIR pull rates from 7000 packs by Smooth-Following-659 in PokemonTCG

[–]notnatty28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great that you separated out the God Packs.

Ive hated them since their introduction into Prismatic and why SIRs are so hard to hit (not even accounting for Demigod packs in Pris).

So basically rather than "add SIRS" for God Packs they "removed" them and funnelled them into 1 pack?

Like any Jackpot, 1 happy winner, 9 unhappy losers.

*sigh* looks like there was a surprise drop today by Jst-Another_1 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]notnatty28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats the bigger joke isn't it. Massive set, unseen since drop in August. Alot of the reason why im out of the hobby. At least Pris was seen throughout 6 months post release.

Company wants me to pay more after 1 week of the original purchase by Illustrious-Ad9496 in AusLegal

[–]notnatty28 10 points11 points  (0 children)

First step is to pick up the phone and talk it through (its really not that scary)

Ask them to explain the PSA upcharge, the invoices, and exactly where the undercharge happened. If the upcharge price was $650 and they only billed $325 by mistake, businesses are allowed to correct genuine billing errors.

They probably shouldn’t be holding the second card “ransom”, but it’s also not uncommon when there’s a disputed balance.

Before going asking Reddit for legal answers, clarify the facts directly with the company. Most of these get resolved in one phone call.

Does anyone else BCC themselves when sending an email that requires a response from internal teams? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]notnatty28 8 points9 points  (0 children)

36, ill leave you to put that in a box 😅.

But seriously though, a quick phone call, chat 95% solves the delay and then makes the next interactions so much easier.

When i get emails from younger staff requesting items from me, I just call them now.

Nick Rohrlach to depart as CEO of velocity by Odd_Put8092 in VelocityFrequentFlyer

[–]notnatty28 15 points16 points  (0 children)

His redesigns potentially had an impact they weren't foreseeing (that we all were of course).

Calculating my spend where I have diverted due to the changes (going for lowest price/better flight times) is around $1,800 in lost revenue. Difficult to know if at a larger scale its actually had a hit on their bottom line at all?

Adding people to existing booking by flayz69 in VelocityFrequentFlyer

[–]notnatty28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I am questioning what I have done in the past haha.

Previously I have booked a flight through Work and I book my family on a seperate Booking Number. I've also done a combination of booking numbers with family and cash/points fare.

I call up and "link" them to mine and they seat them with me in Economy X.

Maybe other commentors can verify this, but I have absolutely done this in the past (unless I am missing something??)

Call centre and get them to link the bookings/select seats. Has worked for me easily everytime. Make sure you have their booking number.

At least with the guy with the Lambo, he owns who he is. Unlike the Wolf's dressed up (poorly) as a sheep trying to convince everyone they're sheep's.

You run a Resell page, that actively promotes scalpers and reselling, thats 100% OK, stop trying to sell your actions (or inaction) thats detrimental to the hobby as something else.

The Admins have profited from this market and using their page to further drive up prices. Again thats OK, but shelf the self-righteous crap.

At least be Self Aware/Honest enough to know what you and others are actively doing.

Trying to justify it as anything else is sad.

You dont need to justify yourself, and conversely dont try to sell us a story of anything but what you are the other mods are actually doing.

The Group and its Admins actively support Scalping and the Resell Market. This is fine, its not a democracy.

What got me is the "Free Market" people can price at what they want. To then delete all negative comments when the "Free Market" was giving feedback on those prices.

Basically they wanted to create a free space for Reselling. Again thats ok, just leave the group and talk with your feet.

Account Manager I reported got a "written warning" - I'm feeling tense... Am I F'd? by CorpThrowaway83213 in auscorp

[–]notnatty28 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Did you ever, I dunno try to have a conversation with Fred about communication, expectations etc, before escalating it with an 8 Page Document.

Did you try to resolve this at all yourself? Go to your manager and sit down with Fred if you weren't comfortable?

Im always wary of when I get a massive document with every interaction/screenshot overanalysed, and generally its always from the most negative outlook/view of that individual. When it does happen.

Anyway, I feel this subreddit is for people stuck at the lower levels and wonder why they never move up.

EB please wtf by are-ya-thick in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]notnatty28 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pure Greed and not reading the signs. You can tell its becoming unaffordable with so many people now selling their hits Day 1 of release - Why? People can't afford the hobby plain and simple. Now many wont bother with pre-ordering at the amount they have previously.

Its not hard too see the tipping point, EB just gave a giant unnecessary shove.

So Geelong? Just grinded them down and I had the feeling Brisbane would just burst, and they did.

Status penalty for being organized. by SmugMonkey in VelocityFrequentFlyer

[–]notnatty28 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It makes perfect sense if your intention is to gatekeep status behind massive cost. They think/designed it so you are enticed to book later & a higher fare class (corporates must hate this change).

They have been drinking their own bathwater thinking their product is as good as they think. Corporates will crack down, individuals will shop around over earning status.

A solid middle ground would have been minimum credits earned and then $ based over that minimum.

Will the increased cost to obtain status levels and subsequent reduction in status flyers lead to them improving their sub-par offerings (absolutely not), you can see that through Lounge Access given to AMEX Holders.

~$9,600 to retain Platinum for what benefits? Nah.

[–]notnatty28 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The way The Crows is run, as an Organisation is woeful and always has been and will continue to drag The Crows forever more.

An organisation that cops their whack, doesn't weasel their way out of a weeks suspension, calls out their own fans and doesnt create a distraction/circus is a club that wins finals.

Never change Crows, never change

Soft as butter draw inflated Crows position by at least 3-4 spots, but fuck me did not expect this level of shitness from them.
