Yet another person is using my gmail address with a dot in the username thinking it is theirs - this time it's enrolling their kid in school. Normally I do nothing but should I do something here? I have the damn kids birth cert, full details of the family, etc.
JB is running a promo where you get $300 off the 8a if you trade in any smartphone, so I gave them a Samsung Note 10 with a cracked screen for $1, bringing the price down to $548
if you make a new JB Hi-Fi perks account you get a $10 off coupon, $538
I paid the $538 with a gift card I got at 5% off making my out of pocket cost $511.55
plus JB give you a $200 gift card if you buy an 8A during its first 2 weeks of sale, which I'll happily use on more ink for my Epson ET-8550, or a new lens for my camera, making the effective price $311.55 for a brand new phone that has support for 7 years ($45/yr if the battery makes it that long!)
@decryption I busted the screen on my 7a and there's nobody local to fix it, so this has been tempting, but the nearest JB stores are Canberra, and I don't have the time for a day trip.
@evcricket make sure you treat any nonsense with the same public contempt we get to see from @Kels_316. Some of us don't do consulting any more and live vicariously through tooted shenanigans.
oh cool, the first data from the National Audit of Mobile Coverage (first time govt has independently tried to map mobile coverage in Australia instead of relying on the telcos to self-report) is now live
@purserj@decryption maybe not up my road... Google Street View terminates at the intersection with the Princes Highway. But pretty much everywhere civilised.
