Cable Forum - Moans and Pet Hates

A new, not-cheap, top brand toilet seat. And the rear two "feet" that should support the seat are almost a centimetre away from the rim of the bowl.

I called them and was actually told that "the seat will flex as you sit on it, allowing the feet to rest on the rim of the bowl".

If coated MDF will do that I would be shocked. I shall be returning it.

The Pet Hate in this, is helpline workers who give stupid answers to queries.

I dont use 2FA unless forced, its an incredible irritation.

Amazon dont force it, you can just delete your mobile from the account.

Problem with Amazon is the auto sale charges. I know it is unlikely but if there is some sort of breach or you get hacked you account could be compromised and charges run up easily. I do not like Amazon for that

you click buy it and it just charges your card without any verification

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8

You may not see verification, but your card company is doing some.

Anyway, just have a decent (and unique) password.

Delete your card from your Amazon account and problem solved.

I hate being told

"We've run out of ****** and we need it now",

instead of

"We are running low on ***** and will need it in a few days".

This has plagued me all through my career and family life.

Main concern is I can not receive 2FA so if it isnt fixed I will lose access to my amazon account eventually. Have had to cancel all my subscriptions just in case and worried about keeping Prime on. I may be over reacting and GiffGaff might fix it but it has major triggered my anxiety

Did you get this sorted?

They fixed it so I set up Auth on a few accounts but then they started the provisioning again thinking they had not fixed it so I am actually down again and have been for nearly a day. I doubt I will have a connection till tomorrow at the earliest.

The idiots at Universal Credit. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I've just been told they their cock up means I was overpaid by £253 in April 2023, and they will be taking it back.

I mean kick a man when he's down.

I tell them everything they ask they screw up and I suffer.

Just had a nerve conduction study. From the length of time since my last one, I've now been told the nerve damage is permanent. Wonderful. :(

Why am I not surprised by their cock-up... But sorry to hear it anyway, so annoying.
