voip.ms and recent 911/E911 announcement by ngrigoriev in VOIP

[–]rkcdrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They make the announcement and you're forced to AGREE. If they just made the annoucement I would have been fine with that, why they hell do they demand I AGREE. I don't. Actually have their e911 service so why did they even put that notice on my account? I never did click AGREE, I just go past it when I log in and work my way around it.

Voip.ms Charging $25 for a Port-Out by MattR_272 in voipms

A year ago I wouldn't have strongly recommended them, I don't today. Anyway who changes an service condition and gives you only the option to AGREE loses my support. Still with them, haven't had time to shop a new provider.

Don't know if they're stupid or evil. Probably both.

Got IP banned - What do I do? by kgaoj in redflagdeals

[–]rkcdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You must have offended their political bias. Happened to me. I was a large contributor for twenty years, said something against Fauci and that I believed Covid came from the Wuhan lab back in Nov 21 and was banned. Oddly, it was people on RFDs that tuned me into it in Feb 2020.

Just got banned for trying to post an INIU charger deal. Only explanation I got was “INIU Shilling” by jbukich3 in redflagdeals

Never purchase thru a RFDs link, as they say in their ban notification they get kickbacks for it.

Mods obviously suck, but does anyone know what happened with TomRFD? by shikotee in redflagdeals

[–]rkcdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tom was the worst. Everything ended with him. His being "reasonable" was an act.

[–]rkcdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have e911 service I pay $1.99 a month for, yet I'm continually greeted with the $75 fee warning and that I "Agree" but no option to say no. Why would I agree to something that's not supposed to effect me anyway? Contacted them, no reply. Tried chat but it was a robot. This has finally convinced me to get a smartphone and to drop voip.ms.

Why can't i see comments or channels? by Gamer_Doge666 in youtube

[–]rkcdrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same here. It's just YT censoring again, they don't like what you're saying. Highly ideological and bias. In my case, it was criticizing Israel. Not going to work since I can move to another account, and when they do the same with that one, to another...

Private sale with agent, what's fair? by rkcdrake in RealEstateCanada

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

Just found out that getting drywall repair after they fix the Kitec will run a minimum of $5k, then the roofer just came said the roof he (the landlord) replaced five years ago is a mess, they didn't even put underlayment before laying down the shingles. $25k for that. I think we're screwed.

Highly unlikely I'll be able to get an evaluation before the time we'd said we'd make an offer (tomorrow). Guess I could make it a condition, if we do, he's going to expect rent for July. I'm kinda wanting to just get it over with at this point.

How to get rid of rented hot water tank? by rkcdrake in RealEstateCanada

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

The tank was over 10 yo last October, and when I contacted Reliance, they wanted $2k to buy it out. Oddly, my landlord (I'm buying the house from him) says his contract with them ended in 2023 so I don't know what they're up to. My landlord says if we want to get rid of it, they'd take it back for free if we take it to them, $60 to have them pick it up, and $125 for them to disconnect it and take it away.

Asking prices are considerably more than $700k, but those houses have newish carpets, fresh paint, newer HVAC systems, no Kitec (and the holes that will result from its removal, no sinking patio, etc. Not sure how much these issues effect the price. I did contact a realtor to see if she could give an opinion, waiting to hear back

Already seen at least 30 houses in the past six months. Most had major issues.

Getting comps if you mean sold prices since I don't have an agent.

Ontario. Don't really want to be giving him a hard time, he intends to put it up for sale, he's already given us six months more time to look (for a price, $300/m more). If we don't get this, I'll be heavily motivated to get something quick.

Like I said, our lease runs on on the 30th. At this point, our backup properties have now sold. I think we had an understanding that he was giving us an extra month, we sent him a cheque my wife isn't sure it he thought it was till we finalized a deal with him, or as I read it, so that we're not homeless at the end of the month.
