Get a refund? Check details of your auction

Posted By: Me on 2007-09-25
In Reply to: C-phone - nana

Hopefully your auction included the potenitality of a refund (buyer may or may not have known of a defect) and there is often a buyer's protection offered for items of this amount. Check out those possibilities quickly as you don't have unlimited time to make a claim.

I would unplug the C-phone and then unseat and re-seat all connectors. Make sure you have the connectors in the right way, and also of course check that volume control :) !

good luck.

Need som advice from somebody's hubby about car auction.

Looking to purchase a slightly used car from a car auction and not really sure how it works.  I am a single gal so of course I do not want to go into this blindly.  Want to know if there is a maximum amount before bid will be considered or is it whatever the highest bidder is gets the car even if it is let's say 500.  I am looking to spend about 5000 to 6000 but if I am highest bidder at 500 or so, is it mine?  Not sure.  Feel kind of girly and dumb, LOL.


I bought my car at an auction last year,
and got a great deal entirely on my own.

Have your top dollar amount in mind, and don't exceed it. People mainly get into trouble at auctions when they get carried away and bid more than they can afford.

Make sure that you've factored in any dealer prep fees, taxes and registration into your total. Do you have the Blue Book price of the car you're looking at? What's the mileage?

The main concern is to make sure that the car is in good condition. If there isn't a Carfax report (and there should be), get the VIN and go online to read the vehicle's history before you consider it. You should also insist on a test drive. Open the hood, and check the tires.

You can do this. Happy motoring :)
anyone bought NC headphones off auction
sites and felt they got authentic products, in good working condition?  I'd really like good noise cancelling headphones without paying the top dollar. thanks.
how 'bout Bay??? Or a local auction house, or
take pictures to local jewlers. (Wouldn't recommend taking the original on first visits). ebay might also give you some information re: comparables.
That means you didn't win the auction, but the seller is offering
the item to you anyway. Either the winning bidder backed out, the seller had a duplicate item, or they lowered their reserve price.

Refund
By law, the landlord has to have receipts and proof of their work and that the work was justified. If you feel you have been taken by your property management company, call your local Department of Professional Regulation (they monitor licensed real estate brokers and agents, among other professions) and tell them what your problem is. They can mediate in a situation like this and they will also ensure that the licensed real estate professional is acting in a legal and professional manner in handling your deposit. These types of disputes are VERY serious to this organization. Mishandling of tenant's deposits can get an agent or broker's license suspended or revoked. It's definitely worth checking out. Good luck to you!
Tax refund
My federal tax refund came within 7-10 days and my state came about 3 weeks later.
I don't want an exchange, I want a refund.

I'm not stupid and know how to configure the foot pedal.  Even though I had done everything to get it to work, I still followed the directions of your company and it still would not work.   I find it funny that one pedal doesn't work and one does, at least temporarily,  and yet it is "my issue" and not yours.  I have every e-mail and not once was it mentioned it was a software or computer issue.  I've even had my IT guy work with it and he said it just isn't compatible, that there is a switch issue in the pedal most likely. 


I'm through with this.  I'll file my complaints as stated above, but I have better things to do with my time than to continue this.   I stand by everything I have said.


 


1 cent refund
that is absolutely unbelievable -- they are totally out of it!! i would definitely be calling and asking what were they thinking?
Can you get a refund on your family??? LOL
Come to Texas!! Just the two of us (me and my roomie) and the pups, turkey, football, no rugrats this year (we're doing family Christmas tomorrow).

Seriously, sharing the Word is one thing, condemning others is God's place not a humans. Tell him you're engaged! Then, break the "engagement" the day AFTER Christmas LOLOL.
CH 13 bankruptcy & tax refund? anyone know? sm

Do you get back ANY of your tax refund?  Who asks how much you got?  and then what? 


chapter 13 & refund
I am told that you have to send a copy to your Chapter 13 Trustee every year for three years.  If you get a refund they will hold it -- which I think is fair and I have no problem them doing it as I want to pay off what I can to the creditors.  You can get back part of the refund if you owe state or city taxes.   Your friends did something wrong and fradulent.  I have not heard of one who got back their entire refund but I don't know everyone.  But my attorney definitely told me that for three years if I have anything coming, I will not get it.  I work both as an employee and have my business.   I just estimate and don't overwithold.
Rapid Refund
Has anyone tried any online rapid refund tax services.....
So obviously anyone entitled to a refund....sm
then will be eligible for this?  I also know people who don't pay a dime all year and then end up getting a refund at the end of the year because of the earned income credit, etc.  So those people will definitely get this, correct? 
Tax break, tax refund
Yes, Bush is waiting on Congress to pass his emergency tactic to keep the economy from nose diving. He says this will stimulate the economy by us spending it. I say, it's another Bush tactic to try and stave off a recession while he is turning out his last days in office. I say, it is ridiculous. Take care of the infrastructure, the middle class, strength education, jobs, job retraining for older adults, etc., etc., etc.
quesion on tax refund
for those of you that filed early how long did it take for you to receive your tax refund check in your direct deposit account? Thanks!  Trying to estimate when I can expect mine. 
Are the people who are talking about a refund only the ones on DQS? (nm)

pathetic refund back to CEO
you go girl!! tell him you want your postage reimbursed - haha!!
Tax refund is NOT abusing welfare. If you

Anyone efile with H&R? How long before you got your refund?

I efiled with direct deposit and am just wondering how long I'm gonna have to wait... the kiddies are hungry and the paycheck isn't cutting it. 


 


They WILL refund your money as long as you complain
loud and long enough.  I did and I got a refund.  I turned around and plunked that money on the Career Step course and have been transcribing for 11 years since then.  Good luck to you!
I did it that way and had my refund in 5 days deposited into my account. sm
Your information is never truly safe from anyone; however, I think giving it to the government might be safer than not.

I have no qualms doing it.
My refund was for 2 cents. I am sending it back along with a letter to the CEO
and ask them why per contract I did not get the raise promised me in 90 days. I no longer work for them, but hey, I am not going to let this opportunity slip by.

It makes no sense to spend more money than the check was to get it to you and for a company to be that wasteful, you wonder what is in the back of their mind. For both you and me, good thing we did not go run and try to spend it in one place!

Something stinks there!
Details?

Can you give us any particulars as to what goes on?  Is it like the dolphin industry used to be with indiscriminate capturing of dolphins along with the tuna?  Is it the numbers that are horrific (heading them towards extinction), is it the method they use, or what?  We all know that seal hunting goes on, done by the Inuit and so on, but has it spilled over commercially?   Please let us know and tell us some FACTS.   I am a softie but I do not like to be manipulated falsely, either.  Care to comment? 


(For the record, I would definitely boycott their food and tell them why, as well, if you relay true and brutal information.)


details
Need to know a bit more about the account.  Tapes with p/u and delivery, printing, or will it be all digital?   Are you doing gross or cpl?  What is their volume? Just me but if it were pick up and delivery of tapes and printed material, I would probably go for 0.12 cpl.  With the same dictators and chart notes you will be able to get a lot of standards set up and Auto Corrects and so should be able to get close to 300 lines per hour once you are used to the account.   Do a search as this has been discussed many, many times in the past.   What do you want to make per hour? 
To Need Details
Hi, I can answer a couple of your questions.  HandyBits is a free download to encrypt files. After you encrypt them, you send them as email attachments.  It's very easy and after you encrypt them there's a red circle on each file showing that it's encrypted.  Hope this helps!
details..
It was all over this board a few years ago. I'll try to find it and gladly pass along the info.
Details, please?
With regard to the horrible account in Florida, what exactly renders it horrible? Is it poor sound quality, horrible ESL, no work, or something else (or all of the above, lol)? When I hear an MT generalize as horrible, all sorts of nightmarish possibilities run thru my addled brain.

Thanks in advance :-)
Yes, write some letters to the Dell people....if you make some noise you will get your refund.
and mail/fax whatever-- get their attention....don't be outright nasty but you can get pissy a little. It will work and you will get your money back.
Details---I will explain
Promised there would be others on my accounts in the hours I worked there was never a single person on during the hours I worked on Army accounts. It was a huge disappointment. After being with for a month they finally got me the IM list it was never loaded when software was installed. I know several others here in my state that have worked for them and have quit for the same reasons. Poor management......
what exactly are these three MTs suing about? Any details? Do they

That sounds like you want details
so you can live vicariously?
Could you please give more details on what
kind of macros you use? I'd appreciate it immensely.
There is something new - Registered MTs - but I don't know details
dd
yes, give us some details. we all need 60K

how many hours a week?


Please let me know the details of the union.
Yes we do need a union
I would just keep it basic, without details. - sm
When I left my ex-employer, I had all kinds of grievances. But the bottom line is, they already knew each and every one of them, because I had already told management about them (in addition to the other MTs telling them the same things!) As an inhouse job, they also dud exit interviews. I skipped that, too. If there was something they didn't know about why I or anyone else that worked there was leaving, they could just figure it out for themselves.
I don't know any details, but my hubby

Bush sending checks out again.  He wasn't sure of the amount though, and I didn't ask him where he heard it.      Would be awful nice though huh? 


I'm a home MT but I can see details
of time of dictation and transcription of my work and other work.  If you don't have access to see what has been typed and when it was dictated to confirm your suspicion of cherrypicking, then you need to ask what is going on.  If they play dumb, tell them you can't afford to do all garbage all the time and that you will be looking for a new company with fair work distribution.  See if they find some good work for you in a hurry.
I will give you details, no BS
I make 35 to 40K a year. I work for MQ. I have 13+ years experience. I do acute care, lots of ops, about 50% ESL, 20% ASR, and use expansions extensively. I work my schedule (split shift), 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I don't allow interuptions while working, and I do not browse this board while working. I take advantage of any OT. I appreciate the national pool when my accounts run low. I have been with other companies who run out of work a lot and came back to MQ because I have a family to feed and need the consistent work and paycheck MQ offers. I have never been without a job as MT.

I know many MTs who make as much and some more than I do, some with their own accounts and some full time with nationals.

Just my personal experience.
Ah, the truth is in the details. :)
You didn't say another program was being used to cap for you. My Instant Text automatically caps for me where Word will not.
I too am from Monrovia and have yet to hear any details!
Please share if anyone finds anything out!
Yes....$50 per week...details inside..SM
What a God-Send it is !  We have 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2600 sq. ft altogether.  She cleans top to bottom, changes linens, hand scrubs my kitchen floor (tile), and does "extras" once monthly such as Murphy's oil to my kitchen cabinets, cleans out the refrig, cleans the oven (self clean but racks too), cleans the windows, 2 per week, baseboards, high dusting, pulls out the refrig every 4 months, and any other projects we do together such as cleaning out cabinets, closets, pantry, etc.  It is SO worth it.  My hubby and I used to argue about whose job it was to clean (when I worked outside the home), so someone suggested a cleaning lady and it was worth not arguing.  I kept her when I started working at home.  I get paid for something I do well, and I am the first to pay others when they can do something better than me and something I HATE to do (toilets anyone?)...She is there for about 4 hours every week. Hope this helps you!  It sure helps me and I thank her when she gets here and thank her again when she leaves! 
Thank you, I will make note of those details! nm

independent setup details

Have you considered a consultant?  I know a very good one who not only works with independent transcriptionists but also assists acute care facilities with new information systems.  I would be happy to send you the info. 


Find us the details of this lawsuit.

Details? Just general accusations do no good sm
A lot of generalized mud slinging with absolutely no facts. I'm very, very happy at OSi...best move of my career going with them.
You can also get the details of the line count. That's very interesting.
For those who want to see how MQ arrives at your line count or want to see the old report. It's Greek to ME but geeks might learn a thing or two about MQ "weights" and line counts. Let me know if you find anything out of whack or interesting!!!
Without knowing the details of your finanacial situation . . .
it's impossible to know.  If you have good credit 18 points shouldn't be hard to do.  Didn't he have any other suggestions?  One thing you can do is, if you have a good banking relationship, get a small signature loan from that bank and pay it back in 30 days.  That will raise your score, but ONLY if the bank doesn't pull a credit report, since that takes off a few points.  Get a $500 or $1000 loan, let it sit in your account, and then pay it back.  It will only cost a month's interest and should raise your score enough.
