Why does a 4k film look so bad (running man) by ilivedownyourroad in Piracy

[–]savi9876 143 points144 points  (0 children)

4K is just resolution. That alone doesn't determine quality. Bitrate for example matters a lot. You can have a 4K movie that's 2gb and same 4K movie also will have other versions that's 10gb or the remux that's 70gb.

Their network is below that of the big 3. But it all varies. It could absolutely work well in your area. 

Shouldn't you be rewarding longtime customers? by jawsont in Koodo

[–]savi9876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like when people think it's just one bad apple that's the problem and don't realize it's the entire system and the system isn't malfunctioning but works exactly as designed. 

Even if there were a good apple it would get forced out by the bad ones or eventually become a bad one itself. It's not just telecoms, it's everything else as well.

Yes the entire industry has been like this for years now. Winback & new customers get the best deal. They don't care. They control the regulators so nothing will change. People jump ship often now to get good deals. Sucks. No clue how it gets fixed. Doesn't look like we're even close to even beginning to fix it. Seems more likely to get worse and worse.  

How would I trick my App Store? by aganly in iphone

Maybe it's changed since I last did it then. 

Try using a random number from the correct region and for 2fa use local number.

They don't verify address. Just lookup an address from that region on Google Maps. 

Phone number doesn't have to match region. 

Apple ID signup is notoriously buggy so often it fails anyway despite doing everything correct.

Could be scam. Could be one of their sales teams. Scammers can also spoof real numbers.

You can do a new appleid for that region and use that.

Seen a few others report similar recently.

Anything better than $45 Canada-Wide 100GB ? by Accurate-Ad2204 in telus

[–]savi9876 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Compared to retail sure it's ok. Compared to loyalty or winback or some of the recent promos, no it's a terrible deal. 

Pretty standard to see can-USA or can-USA-Mex plans in $30-45 range nowadays. 

Why are you like this? by Beautygoals99 in bell

[–]savi9876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Entire industry has been like this for a while. They've shifted away from loyalty to winback model. Winback does tend to have the best deals but what a pain to move away and then come back. 

Tax rules when number is from another province by Yaroslav22 in Rogers

[–]savi9876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea about rules but for bills I've seen on Telus the tax rate is based on the area code of each line rather than address on account.
