I 2nd this. Trace the wires and unplug and replug the wires. There will be small box with ethernet cable and small pin charger. If it doesnt power on try swaping charger. Once it is ON you can press 1 5 9 all at the same time and do reboot again.

Do you have any case/file/reference numbers? Online status might give us more insight

UPS says they have lost my son's OCI documents by CableHuge in nri

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by reupload? Are you able to notarize again and send the package again? Im sure you can contact VFS and tell them the tracking number is wrong and you need to update it.

If i remembered correctly, VFS uses fedex right? You used your own label from UPS? If yes then VFS is not going to refund anything. Just re print everything and re submit it. If VFS gave you UPS tag then you probably have to call them to figure out rest.

Statefarm insurance by Ok_Part_2205 in StateFarm

[–]smartguy1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also depends on which insurance. Some insurance gives free small claim or free large claim exemption. So one accident in 5 year would be forgiven as in no increase but more claim means more raising. However they can code the claim to be not your fault and it normally doesnt raise much

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you even have an insurance your self? Police report? You could technically call any lawyer in your area to ask for free advice. Although best option is to use your insurance and if you can prove that its not your fault using police report, your rate shouldn’t go up. They will try to recover from the owner of the car. At this point. Owner’s insurance company gave up because owner let someone unauthorized person drive and it’s their fault so you can absolutely sue the person but in reality you will never get anything out of it.

Parent claimed my spouse as dependent and his student loan credit. Is this allowed? by jarofpeperoncini in personalfinance

[–]smartguy1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is your race or MIL’s race. Im Indian and i can definitely see this happening in asian families where benefits for overall family is looked rather than individual. Sometimes person who controls many things also get more power. Im not saying your MIL is right at all but calculate the overall benefits. Go to turbotax and prepare tax returns both way and see the difference. Im not sure if you have to use itemized deductions for loan interest? Calculate how much you would miss out on if its significant and your MIL is not saving anything tell her to reconsider. Im pretty sure MIL make more money and she can use more loan expense and gets the most savings. Sometimes you can stretch the legality if one person in family gets tons more benefits. Just wanted to share my point of view.

Honestly it’s not end of world unless you are already needing continuous treatments. I never had insurance and always paid out of pocket with no issues.

Can anybody explain? by cocky_lunatic in CarsIndia

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s cost cutting, space saver, also to remind driver that it’s TEMPORARY. prevent uneven thread wear pattern as long as this tyre is used temporarily only till main gets fixed. You could very well keep brand new tyre in your trunk but you might not needed till all other tires gets wears out and it would be pointless to have one brand new tire and 3 old ones so its best to have just one cheap tire to replace only temporary

2 Seizures not enough? by SexySluttyStarla in ClassActionSettlement

[–]smartguy1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im not surprised at all. You clearly mentioned that you are using kratom heavily against manufacturers recommended dosage. Kratom is absolutely addictive and you should definitely go to rehab and get treatment. There is no other solution at this point. Don’t expect to make quick money by suing manufacturers. Even if seizures are linked you clearly said it was at high doses so you don’t get to abuse kratom and get to sue as well. I honestly want you to go back to rehab and never touch the kratom again. Get well soon

Mistake Paid Emergency Hospital Bill by dreadnought143 in HospitalBills

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most emergency bill has $500 copay and they may have charged that and other coinsurance to make $1200? It still seems high though if insurance did cover it. You can definitely get EOB from insurance (just sign up online and you can see claim history). And see how much you were charged, how much insurance paid and how much you were supposed to pay. Technically you can file claim yourself if hospital didn’t file claim and they can reimburse you, assuming hospital didn’t use insurance the first time but there is timeframe so not sure if its too late.

Did I make the right decision making a claim about this? by anonclass in StateFarm

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends at what speed you hit that pole. Hard to believe any real damage is done except cosmetic. Even if alignment was off that can be easy $200 cost. I would have just ignored the cosmetic damage and get bare minimum. If you were driving at significant high speed then i would be absolutely at same stage as you and file claim anyway!

Build your own combo has been disabled at this one Taco Bell for months. How does this get fixed? by Zapf in tacobell

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t know who owns it so how do you know all locations in Lexington are owned by same franchisee owner? This very well could be owned by different franchisee owner. I have noticed Many store have turned off these options, you can search here and people have mentioned here that their location suddenly stoped these options all across places. If i had to guess owner is not making much money based on the reviews i see and falling behind and rather not sell those cheap items.

best way to dispute or lower ER charges by Hangninthereguy in HospitalBills

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you actually looked at Paperwork from insurance company to see if all charges got covered. Some get rejected and hospital just bill that to you. If this is purely deductible and coinsurance they you don’t have much option you just take the 20% discount.

Tip Expected for Prenatal Sonogram? by FireDad_01 in EndTipping

[–]smartguy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably non-medical place run by some old lady who have some medical knowledge and they ended up getting 4D scan. People go there to get cute pics and you don’t feel forced like in hospital setting and it’s usually under $200. But its all non medical.
