What happens to your phone number if you have the $30 eBay plan and you forget to renew?

Do they send reminder emails or texts as expiry approaches?

Anyone ever get this message with a sale: Listing Status: 2 Pending Offer Listing # CP651XXXX. It all worked out but Ticketmaster froze my listing half a day.

I posted a pair of seats for sale and wanted to adjust the price as I saw prices falling.

So I go to my selling page and the pair is present, but I can’t adjust the price, the transfer option is unavailable, and I can’t cancel the listing.

And I get the message Listing Status: 2 Pending Offer Listing # CP651XXXX at the top of the listing.

I listed them for a set price and have no idea what the offer comment is about.

I called Ticketmaster and did a chat as I was afraid that the listing glitched and I didn’t know if my lost access was permanent. No one could help me. The fabulous escalation team finally responded and called me back a full 5 days later. That’s brutal. She couldn’t explain what happened either, but after about a half day after noticing the issue I got an automated email from Ticketmaster advising me my seats sold at my posted price.

Has anyone had this frozen listing error as well? One of the agents thought maybe they were checking the buyers credit card, to which I said if that’s an issue that’s not my issue and I don’t know why the seats are being held. But it worked out so all is good.

Some sellers are using bots for pricing, I found that interesting to discover

Have a GA parking pass to an event, limited supply for the premium lots. I posted a pass for sale and a competitive listing immediately under priced me by a dollar.

There’s 3 listings in total. I played around going up and down and above listing 3 and each time it almost immediately made its listing $1 less than the lowest priced.

Then I took my listing down to my cost and it wouldn’t follow, so they must have some sort of floor price programmed in. I didn’t realize that was happening with bots, it’s somewhat interesting.

It probably violates stubhubs rules, but they’d never catch it and probably wouldn’t care if they did.

Anyone here use ChatGPT and find it makes things up? The rogers app and chat support does the same! The app says my plan is $100, rep says $55. One rep says I need a new modem, the other says I have the most current. It would be funny if it didn’t waste my time.

I think they just make things up, just like it feels when you ask ChatGPT something it’s not familiar with.

I open a chat and ask what my monthly rate is as the app says $100 and it should be $55. The agent asks me when I changed it. Shouldn’t he just open the account and see the status? Finally he does and confirms the app is wrong and it’s $55.

Then he says I need a new modem. I said I called last week as service was slow (5G home internet) and they said I have the most current modem. Coincidentally a rogers rep knocked on my door last week to sell me 5G home internet and told me there is a new modem that I should upgrade to and to call in, as it will improve my speeds. So I called last week and they said there isn’t a new modem. Then dude now on the chat unprompted says I need a new modem.

Issue with Red Pocker - not getting short code texts but everything else works. Agent on chat support seems lost. Not even sure they understand the issue.

I ported from TMO this morning and regular texts are working fine. But short codes and messages to Google voice or TextNow can’t be sent or received.

In addition, I was led to believe that we can pick our network during sign up. They gave me one I didn’t want without giving me any choice, and I’d have to forfeit my current plan to change to the one I want.

I’ve opened an email ticket, no reply. I’m going through the chat and the agent is just lost. But I need access as it’s linked to my bank.

Phone number won’t make or receive calls either.

New Typhur Quad Sync 2, and probe 2 not charging

I’m not having luck, I bought a meater set and it was somewhat inaccurate so I bought the Typhur and the accuracy seems a little tighter. Interestingly the ambient reading on the meater seems more accurate.

Anyways - given the accuracy on the meater I’ll be returning it, but now I. Any get the Typhur probe 2 to charge.

I’ll return the unit which is a pain in the butt since it’s brand new, and I’ll rebuy it from Amazon again but this time add the warranty. I generally dislike adding the warranty as the manufacturer warranty should be sufficient but the cost is around $20 and it seems these premium prices wireless probes are temperamental.

Can I activate my infimobile from outside the U.S.

Was going to port my tmo to infimobile but I’m traveling for a couple weeks. From what I can see, looks like I need to wait until I’m home.

Am I out of luck with this battery? The batteries themselves test at 18v as does the internal connector, but the stem tests at 50mv. I did connect the GND and RST for a few seconds and that didn’t help.

The battery is a P108 EVE20V2. I did connect a 12 v battery to the stem for a couple minutes as well to see if that might kick start it and no luck. When the 12v is connected it reads at 12v, but when I remove it goes back to 50mv. I do have one flashing light on the battery. It was in a cold environment over the winter and that may have triggered something in it, probably around 5c over the winter (and less with the occasional power outage).

Thanks

Do others find 5G Home Internet Ultimate inconsistent? My speed today is 10% of what it normally is.

Do people find this service consistent? I haven’t changed its location or any settings and it’s running at about 10% of normal. I rebooted and that made no difference.

Got called by Rogers (supposedly) with this plan, is this a scam? It looks too good to be true. Emailed from support@myrogersorders.com

I think it’s some sort of scam. I may call Rogers to ask if legit, but I’m not calling the number back in the email. I asked them to email me details and when I gave them an email address they said it’s not showing up in the Rogers system as a customer email, and they were correct - I didn’t give them the one I use, so maybe they are legit? Still doesn’t seem so.

Help me understand this. Stubhub support says I will receive my seat for an event where the primary seller is Ticketmaster from SeatGeek.

Not sure how that would work. Wouldn’t it have to be in my Ticketmaster account before I can go through the gates? They say no, but from what I understand that’s mandatory.

Anyone have experience with this? I am waiting on a ticket from StubHub that hasn't been delivered. I don't want it anymore. If I never receive it, will they penalize me if I can't deliver it?

It appears to be a scammer as I already got one fake ticket, I just want out from this purchase.

Anyone know why icloud for windows (11) is always resetting the download count for photos and constantly downloadng?

I have a large library, over 50k photos, and the windows app has downloaded them all to my C drive and all photos have a green circle with a checkmark. Yet the app constantly resets and downloads thousands of photos again at random times.

Why is this? Can it be stopped? I'd upload an image to show what I mean but I don't see how, images & video is greyed out.

Here's the link:

https://www.newegg.com/acronis-true-image-2025-1-computer-esd/p/N82E16832200258

And you need to add promo code PGWEF376 to bring it down to $30. I wouldn't sleep on the deal if you are looking, it says limited offer and doesn't provide a time frame. It seems they promote a different Acronis product every few days and just keep recirculating.

I'm pleased I got this deal, but also a little disappointed in Acronis as a result. I had a perpetual 2016 version that doesn't work with my upgrade to windows 11. I reached out to Acronis and they offered me a 'deal' at $99 to upgrade to 2025 true image with a perpetual license. You would think what they offer existing customers with products that have aged out would be better than what NewEgg offers anyone, but it is what it is.
