“Plugged Toilet”

Georgie F.
9/9/24

Joshua gave me excellent advice and information on how to fix our plugged up toilet. He was patient and explained the different techniques and possible reasons we had a problem. And this 83 year old female did it! Thanks!

“Wrong schematics”

Michael S.
9/2/24

Trying to find a wiring diagram for my 2021 Ford Ranger. Was sent nice colored schematics, which turned out to be incorrect. In all fairness, the Ford dealership didn't have the right schematics either. Nothing seem to match the vehicle. We identified the proper wire by using the pin that it was attached to rather than the color of the wires, which were not correct by either person.

Telstra, in Australia, is a privatised Telco which virtually dominates the Australian market. It is well respected. An IT "expert", claiming to be Telstra trained, offered the following Google advice to those wishing to extend the ring time on their mobile phones, which are mostly factory set to 15 seconds.

For Android: To extend your ring time, you'll need to make a note of and then dial a code involving your forwarding number. Dial *#61#. It will display the number the calls are
Forwarded to and the current ring time. Write down the forwarding number.

Dial **61*+1xxxxxxxxxx*11*30# (where xxxxxxxxxx is the number displayed previously and 30 is the new ring time you can pick 15, 20, 25 or 30). Dial *#61# to check the new
Settings.

End result: Ring time extended to 30 seconds but voicemail invited
Callers to leave a message and I would call them back. I could not receive
Calls. I wrestled with Google, phone plan providers and phone suppliers over
Four days, without avail. No one seemed to want to know about my problem. My
Google search ultimately led me to Just Answer and I discovered Richard, Android Expert. Just Answer is US based. For a nominal cost, within a few hours I was put in touch with Richard. Recognising my phone dilemma, i. E. I couldn't receive calls which was his modus operandi, he text me one question and within ten seconds of my reply he supplied a code which restored my phone to its normal operating mode.

This comment is unsolicited. No reward has been offered nor expected.

Jack Woodward, a very happy customer.

They advertise answers in an average of 8 minutes. I got no answer in over 6 hours, just $20 taken from my bank account. DO NOT USE.

The site is not upfront with their pricing. I was told that there would only be a $5 refundable fee for the service however I was charged a $5 membership fee which was not refunded to me upon request, plus another $39 membership which was a surprise to me. I contacted their customer service and this is what they answered me:Unfortunately, all membership fees are non-refundable. It was indicated on our website before you key in your card information. That's also clearly stipulated on the Terms and Conditions that you accepted before using our service. Memberships that are cancelled within the membership period will not have pro-rated billing, refunds or other credits also subject to be in a pay per question basis.
Do you have any agreement from me that shows I have requested or agreed to a monthly membership for $39 a month?

This is a two way process wherein both us has equal rights and responsibilities. We have given you terms and conditions to educate you about the service that you signed for, and on the other hand it is your duty to read it and understand it. I believe I have provided all of the information that you needed to know about your concern for today. I will disengage this chat session. Please feel free to reach out to us again if there is anything we can help you with. Thank you for visiting JustAnswer.

The problem is that I had never agreed to a monthly membership for $39 to read the terms and conditions for it.

I asked a question and paid the $5 trial membership

I called every day to find out why I have not been contacted regarding my question

For 7 days in a row, the customer service people were "Escalating" my question

On the 7th day, after my 7th call -- I receive an email from a Moderator name Michelle, below is the email:
=========================
Hello:

I'm Michelle, a Moderator for JustAnswer.com.

I'm so sorry that a JustAnswer Expert has not connected with you yet. I wanted to reach out to see if you still needed assistance with your question?

Please use the reply box below to let me know if you'd like to continue or cancel.

If you were attempting to reach a different company, please let me know that as well.

Thank you,

Michelle~Moderator
===========================

I am trying not to laugh as I write this review-- I canceled my membership before they could charge my credit card for a membership fee

Clearly this is a scam -- pay $5 and then JustAnswer does not respond during the trial period so they can charge you for a membership fee after the trial has ended
