Did you reach out to the seller to confirm? In my experience, if the listing has expired which happens when only one 1 item is being sold, eBay doesn’t show all the info after the sale. I try to look up old orders and this happens a lot. The sellers are usually responsive and care about their ratings so they will provide any listing clarification or even a refund before you can leave a negative review. eBay is also good with buyer protection if the sellers refuses a refund. I suspect eBay cannot change their reviews so they are giving time for the sellers to resolve any issues.

So when is your Costco not busy? Genuine question as I have gone there mid-day during the week and it will still be packed. One day I went 30 min before close and the parking lot was still full.

My keyfob battery was dead and I couldn’t use the hidden keyhole to unlock it. I watched a video on YouTube but I still wasn’t able to make it work. It wasn’t an emergency but I would just break the glass if it was one.

I have disabled location settings because it tracks the drive from my home. I enable it to use any deals and close the app after ordering and taking a photo of the order number. They start cooking after you let them know the code in the drive-thru. No need to open the app. They do prioritize drive-thru’s because their performance is tracked based off that. That’s why they sometimes ask you to pull ahead from the window. I never worked there, I just noticed the timing screen in the kitchen when I used to do DoorDash, which tracked when a car got in and out of the line. They used to act as though I was invisible and only served drive-thru.

iPhone SE is their affordable line. Don’t see that changing anytime soon as it sells well.

Are we still talking about TikTok or is it Facebook/Twitter/every US social media site?

Yes, that’s what I meant to say. Thank you for clarifying.

Don’t answer unknown numbers and let it ring all the way through. Eventually it stops. If you cut the call or answer it, they will know there is a human being on the other end.

If they are real they will leave you a voicemail. No need to sacrifice your children 😂

If you really want to pay them money, order it again and return the old items. There is an option to not request money.

Companies are not allowed to charge for items they already shipped correctly or incorrectly. Even if they could, I can’t imagine it being easy for anyone to just bill you money and mark the order as completed without shipping anything.

From the FTC website - “By law, companies can’t send unordered merchandise to you, then demand payment. That means you never have to pay for things you get but didn’t order. You also don’t need to return unordered merchandise. You’re legally entitled to keep it as a free gift.”

Since they issued the refund, you got unordered items. It’s a business write off as a loss to the seller or Amazon.

Amazon.com has 30 day free returns and no need to chat with anyone. We can just drop it off at a location with no packaging or printed label. Not sure if it’s different for .de or for businesses. I wouldn’t think it’s different for US business accounts in the US.

The article is long and confusing. Why are you creating a US based account from Germany. No company will allow that due to tax purposes, especially for businesses.

Just curious, what do you plan to use it for? I used to use my iPad Mini2 for zoom calls until recently, as zoom now needs iOS 10 or above.

Another post to feed America Bad and EU Good circlejerk on Lemmy.

Yes, the system is bad and we should have universal healthcare but I never had to call anyone to figure anything out in the past 15 years. The hospital sends me the bills after getting it through insurance. Not sure who your insurance provider is but this issue is not common.

It is crazy because OPs case is not very common, at least in my experience. The hospital sends the bills to the insurance and later I get a bill for what I owe. I don’t need to make any calls.

In some countries it’s not easy like walking in to a store and getting a prepaid card. You need to have an ID and a local address, probably to prevent bad events which use sims cards. A travel sim could be easier but more expensive.

eSIM is much easier and can be activated using an app.

I love Airalo. I have used it in 3 countries and works without any issue. I even use it in the US when I reach my data limit as I’m not on an unlimited plan.

I don’t use Firefox on iOS mobile devices. All browsers are just Safari with a different skin. Safari does all the ad block and anti-track. Sorry, if you were asking me about Firefox extensions.

Download Adblock / Adblock Plus / Adgaurd app. Follow the instructions in the app to add the Extension for Safari.

For system-wide ad block in apps, use something like NextDNS. This blocks the app banners.

You can block all these ads just with Safari or Firefox without uBlock Origin. I haven’t seen an ad on my iPhone in like a decade.

I use an iPhone and don’t see any ads and block trackers / popups. Lots of ways to block them.

I never implied that. Ask the ISP why they have separate hotspot / tablet / watch plans.
