I created an order today for an SSD, and realized after that it was the wrong one. It allowed me to cancel the order after it was made, and it now shows cancelled, but I'm wondering how long it takes for the refund?

And does it matter the payment was with a prezzy card? I've never had to cancel an order from there so I'm not sure what the process is. Does it automatically get refunded or do they give store credit?

It's not a huge deal, but I ordered a 500gb SSD instead of the 1TB version which was actually $3 cheaper (same brand the 1TB is gen 4 the 500gb is gen3 from the manufacturer).

Any advice is greatly appreciated. Cheers.

This is the most tone deaf bullshit I can imagine them doing right now. People are struggling to eat due to high food prices, and they decide to spend multi-millions rebranding.

I wish the government agencies had the balls to put an end to these massive prices, especially when the companies are splashing out on things like this, while making record profits and at the same time there are commercials on TV talking about how people can't afford to eat.

I'm so fed up with this bullshit and having to decide weekly what we do without this week (in addition to what we went without last week) because we can barely afford to feed ourselves.

Oh dear me, won't somebody think of the poor landlords!

I hope there are some severe penalties levied against the train driver as well as the company. This is inexcusable.

Edit: Typo - sever to severe

Pretty sure it's the latter

Thank you that makes more sense. Even if it is asinine.

If it's capped, how do places like PBTech get away with charging 1-3%? Genuinely curious.

Prices will continue to rise in the next three months as almost 60% of retailers fail to meet sales targets and others fear closure within the year.

Surely raising prices will help them sell more!

I just search around every year for whoever has the best deal when my contract is up. They seem to be pretty much the same these days.

Surely there are laws around that right? Like they can't just keep the extra for themselves and say "Welp, we fold, even though we sold all of your info and your account to another company"

Thank you very much! Sorry for the delayed response, I was out of town over the weekend. Cheers!

I tried to sign up for a few, and all of them are invite only. I just gave up at that point and figured I'd post here instead.

Hopefully it's okay to ask here, but does anyone have a Calckey invite they'd be willing to share? I'd like to check it out and would prefer a local instance.

If this is the wrong place let me know.

I've used Matrix for ages, in fact it's the chat service my wife and I use (self hosted on my home server) to chat. Other than that and dipping my toes in to Mastadon, I've not used any others.

It seems like this happens once a year or so.
