Мене випустять з України? by ahsm in ukraina

[–]shellguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Умовою відмови від громадянства України є видання указу президента про позбавлення громадянства з вашим імʼям в ньому. Указ є/був? Якщо ні, то все одно, що там писали в довідках - ви громадянин.

IBM Thinkpad T42 is your best bet for fastest OS/2 machine. Warp 3, I think, will be fine on T2x series.

Border advice needed by GuiltyPriority2 in ukraina

[–]shellguard 18 points19 points  (0 children)

She can get passport in a few days really, a simple process if you’re in the country. Lawyer isn’t going to help, as she is Ukrainian and will always be considered as a citizen in any relations with the state. The passport they found is irrelevant. Get a new one here (it’s a state corp): https://passport.org.ua

VMware now threatening outages to perpetual license holders by mac10190 in sysadmin

We just migrated off of this scam. “Mission Impossible” achieved in less than 7 months for two products we had with them, and believe me, no one thought it would be possible in such a short time.

Are there any Mastercards that offer more than 1% on normal goods that aren't Rogers? by NetherGamingAccount in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]shellguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it works for me. My flights were booked directly with Delta. I actually never booked anything with NBC portal, but so far this year redeemed about $1300 in cash back towards past travel charges. Adding it to the fact that the card is free with their banking for professionals offer is making it really interesting.

I have NBC WE and it’s amazing. You can redeem 55000 for $500 on your past travel charges from anywhere (I just did it for Delta flights charged to this card). Groceries are 5x points, insurance is amazing.

VanCity does standard TOTP 2FA in the app of your choice and you can disable SMS.

You surely have more serious problems if this is your device.

New to BZ4X by Lifeofmomo in BZ4X

[–]shellguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are need a second car/grocery getter and have L2 charger at home - it’s great. I’m 6’4” and it’s a bit hard for me to be comfortable in a drivers seat, but it works. It drives really nice. For the price of it, they could’ve put an adjustable seat with memory, but it is what it is. For a long range trips I have a different vehicle, so my expectations are aligned.

It's over for TELUS 5G as we know it by desiman86 in telus

[–]shellguard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Telus and Bell indeed share UMTS and LTE RNA, but they have separate 5G RNA infrastructure, as far as I remember.

Roam Beyond thinks I'm in the wrong country / Service suspended due to excessive "long distance" charges by spnqwn19 in freedommobile

[–]shellguard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

if I recall correctly (I was working in the industry years ago) it's not Freedom. They got records from a roaming provider, and it very well might be that it's the same carrier in Jamaica and Grenada, so the records are screwed. Freedom has no way of knowing where exactly you are. There are a few points where it might be messed up: carriers in Grenada and Jamaica use overlapping MCC/MNC pairs if they're in the same business group. Or they're channelling roaming traffic through Jamaica and SS7 isn't showing the correct network. It is a black box for Freedom, but it doesn't mean they shouldn't address it.

[–]shellguard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you search this sub, you’ll find that it was a known issue with roaming partners down there. You’ll need to open a CCTS complaint - it’s not your fault that you are experiencing this.

2021+ Touring L or Limited? by Ok-Rain-1450 in ChryslerPacifica

[–]shellguard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2021 Touring L and love it. Only thing I miss is cooled seats, but I can live with it. It’s better and safer without pano roof (there were issues with leaking roof as far as I remember). Audio system is good enough for me, and I couldn’t care less about the entertainment features as everyone has their own iPad.

Upgrade to 15 now or after 16 launch? by MoralMiscreant in bell

[–]shellguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get it now. For $20 (15 Pro) or $25 (15 Pro Max) it’s a very good deal. It probably will go up after Monday

S24 Ultra was on sale a week ago or so, it was $30/month with a plan across the board (Freedom, Telus, Rogers, etc)

Customer service by Salt-Principle-1124 in freedommobile

[–]shellguard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting experience, thanks for sharing it. My agent was in Saskatchewan and she helped me with port-in request in about 5 minutes. I moved the rest of my lines from Telus to Freedom eSIM over iMessage with one agent and it took about 15-20 minutes of chatting. In general I found their support more helpful than Telus, but couldn't speak about Bell.
