Finally Recognized!

I kind of can't believe it.

After starting this ~4 years ago, applying 2.5 years ago, and the whole minor-issue-oops-jk-not-issue, I've finally been recognized.

Also wanted to confirm that if you're outside of Toronto and in Ontario, you can still apply through your local vice consulate (I've never been to the Toronto consulate even though they processed my application!). You cannot apply through them if you live in Toronto.

If you decide to apply through them please be kind and remember that they are working unpaid positions.

Kingston RMA Issues

Hello,

About 2 years ago I purchased an order of 4 sticks of Kingston KSM32ED8/32HC.

Unfortunately now one of the sticks is having ecc memory issues repeatedly at the same address. The time between each of the errors is also shrinking.

I contacted Kingston to RMA the ram, but they only have KSM32ED8/32HD and will only replace the one stick, which will cause me to be running 3 sticks on KSM32ED8/32HC and 1 stick of KSM32ED8/32HD on an AM4 motherboard.

They're saying this wont be an issue, but I'm very skeptical.

Has anyone else dealt with this before? I was under the impression I was buying the memory as a set, and the board is already only able to run all 4 at 2666mhz instead of 3200mhz.

Is mixing KSM32ED8/32HC and KSM32ED8/32HD going to be fine?

Fedex Ignored Multiple Requests to Self Broker

Hello,

Im in Canada and ordered a shipment through FedEx ground.

I've been emailing them repeatedly telling them I wanted to self-clear my package. They responded multiple times telling me the documentation was not ready yet and to follow up.

Then they went ahead and cleared the package anyways.

They even emailed me 10 hours before they cleared the package saying "Documents have not been generated. Resubmit request once documents become available.".

Does anyone know how this typically gets handled? I clearly refused their brokerage services in about half a dozen emails and multiple phone calls.

Roam Beyond charging 50 cents per megabyte

Wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Im roaming in Portugal and even though my plan has 25gb of roam beyond data, with talk and text, I'm being charged standard roaming rates (50 cents per megabyte and $1.25 per minute for calling).

After calling support they confirmed I shouldn't be charged and tried to add a 5gb add-on, that still didn't work.

The supervisor then told me to get a local sim card while they take 2-5 business days to figure it out... which is frustrating roaming was the whole reason I got this plan.

So far I'm at over $70+ in roaming charges.

Has anyone else had this happen?

One of the people I'm traveling with also has a freedom plan and their data is working and using their roam beyond data just fine.

We also got different text messages, where mine says I'm being charged standard roaming rates and theirs says they have regular rates...
