Ready to change, I was offered, and accepted a 22% discount off the reference price (a local thing). This offer was in writing. I even tooted how pleased I was, after years of rip offs. Imagine my surprise to discover (after accepting) it's really only 21% off. SFA in dollar terms, but <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/BaitAndSwitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BaitAndSwitch</a> really shits me. An hour on the phone, "no, we said 21%, the quote says 21%" 🤔 (see image) Looks like I *will* be switching providers 🤬

BokHey, Author! Do NOT, in the third <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/book" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#book</a> of your trilogy, tell me that everything I've been <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/reading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reading</a> so far is unimportant, mere Trivia compared to the secret preparations that have been going on in the background for Something Big that is about to happen. Even more importantly, after outlining what that is, do NOT then END the trilogy before the Something Big actually happens. <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/SciFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciFi</a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/BaitAndSwitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BaitAndSwitch</a>

Ms. Que Banh"For example, I’m developing a device for newborn care that monitors infants’ body temperature, skin colour, eye colour, weight and heart rate, among other factors, to track their health, particularly during those critical first few weeks of life. It could save lives. Think of how many other students have ideas and skills we can’t even imagine yet.That’s why it’s so disheartening to hear some Canadians talk about international students like we’re parasites. I pay about $12,000 per semester in tuition—far more than Quebec residents do. I have a campus job as a kitchen supervisor to cover my expenses, and I live in a small two-bedroom apartment with a roommate. People like me are not responsible for Canada’s problems. But we can help solve them, contributing to the country’s cultural diversity, its economy, its innovation and its growth. And by bridging gaps between nations, we help build a more inclusive society for everyone."<a href="https://beige.party/tags/CDNpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CDNpoli</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/InternationalStudents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InternationalStudents</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/BaitAndSwitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BaitAndSwitch</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PostSecondaryEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PostSecondaryEducation</a>

BongolianMichelle Singletary: Think twice before buying a car-repair contract. <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/FTC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FTC</a> settlement shows why. The regulator ordered <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/CarShield" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CarShield</a> to pay $10 million, alleging it used deceptive ads and “trusted personalities to deliver its empty promises.”"The FTC said that only after purchasing a contract and “authorizing” CarShield to sign it on their behalf did consumers receive their contract, a “dense, 25- to 30-page document, filled with numerous exclusions, terms, and conditions that are not disclosed in CarShield’s advertising or by its telemarketers.”Despite hundreds or thousands of dollars, consumers were often stuck having to pay for the very repairs they were assured would be covered, the FTC said in its complaint."<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/baitandswitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#baitandswitch</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/telemarketing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#telemarketing</a> <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/08/02/carshield-service-repair-contract-deceptive-ads/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/08/02/carshield-service-repair-contract-deceptive-ads/</a>
