Hi, I have a small business and wanted to start running ads on Instagram. Of course, I need to be connected to the horrendous Meta Business Suite.

I was never able to run any form of ads and my payment account is disabled. It shows "payment failed", but I never made any payments (because I was/am not able to!).

I was seeking help, but can only chat with the AI chatbot. The Chatbot confirms that nevery any payments were conducted and therefore the reason is false. However, he failed to provide me with any help.

I cannot get in contact with a real human and have been stuck in this loop for weeks now. Is there any chance to solve this issue?

[Something additional happened today, when I tried again:
Shortly after the chat, though, I saw,that I can verify the added payment account. So they charged me 0,90 € and on the transaction details should stand "METAPAY XXXX" (the Xs are a 4-digit number). I don't have a 4-digit number, just "Meta Pay".]

Hi. A few weeks ago, I opened a second business account on Wise (for a second company). I only transferred the account opening fees last week and, once that was sorted, transferred another sum into the account.

A few hours later, I first received an email saying they needed further details from me. The link in the email led nowhere. An hour later, I received another email stating that “onboarding for businesses in your location has been paused”.

When I enquired, I received another email with the reply: ‘We are currently unable to disclose the exact reason for the closure of your account’.

Then came another message: ‘Onboarding for businesses in your location is currently on hold. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer you this service at present. We are actively working to resume onboarding in the future.’

My question to you is: Is this just an excuse? Why was my account approved and transfers allowed, only for it to be closed down all of a sudden?

I’ve also had to follow up several times to get a refund. This hasn’t happened yet. Neither the account opening fees nor the amount I transferred after opening the account. They've sent me a transaction confirmation as proof...BUT this is my OWN transaction to the now closed account.

There has been no response from Wise regarding the account opening fee. It seems like they cashed that in, although they immediately closed my account after receiving it.

I feel kinda scammed and am considering further steps.

Hallo. Ich habe mir vor ein paar Wochen ein zweites Business-Konto auf Wise eröffnet (für ein zweites Unternehmen). Habe erst letzte Woche die Kontoeröffnungsgebühren überwiesen und nachdem das erledigt war noch einmal einen Betrag raufüberwiesen.

Nach ein paar Stunden kam zuerst eine E-Mail, dass sie weitere Daten von mir bräuchten. Dieser Link führte ins nichts. Nach einer Stunde kam eine weitere E-Mail, laut derer das "Onboarding für Unternehmen an deinem Standort pausiert sei".

Auf Nachfrage kam eine weitere E-Mail mit der Antwort: "Derzeit können wir den genauen Grund für die Schließung deines Kontos für [...] nicht bekannt geben".

Danch kam wieder: "Derzeit ist das Onboarding für Unternehmen an deinem Standort pausiert. Leider können wir dir diesen Service derzeit nicht anbieten. Wir arbeiten aktiv daran, das Onboarding in Zukunft wieder aufzunehmen."

Meine Frage an euch wäre, ob jemand weiß, ob das Onboarding tatsächlich pausiert wurde, oder das nur eine Ausrede ist? Warum wurde mein Konto zugelassen und Überweisungen und dann auf einmal entfernt?

Ich habe auch mehrmals nachfragen müssen, um das Geld zurückerstattet zu bekommen. Das ist bis jetzt noch nicht passiert (weder die Kontoeröffnungsgebühren noch den Betrag, den ich nach Eröffnung überwiesen habe).

Hi. I want to add shipping to the US. However, I am in the EU. I have no access to Etsy shipping labes and getting DDP options from local carriers requires to have a business agreement with them, which they only offer for big quantities of packages being sent.

How can I show potential customers from the US, that they will have to pay for duty? I haven't seen any option in the Etsy interface.

I have this setting activated for posts, but users (not approved ones) can just post in the sub I moderate. Why does this keep happening?

Hi! I have some files, which somehow trigger this issue:

First they take forever to slice. At some point they get stuck at 50% (during support generation. But I don't use supports). If I stop the slice and go back to the preparation tab and delete the file, Bambu Studio just closes.

I have never encountered it before. The creator of those files also has no issue.

It doesn't matter if I use my own slicer settings or bambu presets.

I saw online, that this seems to be a common issue since a few years. But non of the troubleshooting helped. I tried setting compability to Windows 8. Turned Thread optimization off. Deactivated some threads.

It always stays the same.

I am sitting on it for 4 days now and it's driving me crazy.

Bambu Studio is updated.

My CPU is an i7-7700k.

Hi! My dad needs a new TV, but I don't really know how to choose.
I guess some TCL, LG or Samsung.

Size should be between 43 and 55 in (max!).
Price around 400 €.

He watches local TV for the most part, so it doesn't need to be a streaming powerhouse. However, I guess it's nice to have available.
I think having a good controller would also be important, but with no audio control.

Could you help me out? Thanks!
