53rd bank Fifth-third bank Snellville, Georgia Lawrenceville ,Georgia ……on the border line between the 2 cities pretty much….. First for starters, I am a disabled individual and have been for the past 35 years give or take…. and now retired as well for a few years now... Have you ever heard of a bank shutting down Your credit line completely after you have paid it Of in maybe half or a third of the required time ? Not even close to the ending time, the credit line was paid off - yes….$7,000 credit line….yes with a bank account and a credit card to access it… I inquired why the decision was made and got a lame excuse which they push away somewhere out of site… This was maybe 5 or 6 years ago and paying the credit line off also allowed me to pay off a few of my credit cards as well bringing my credit Score back up to the 700’s… Not that it even dropped very low under mid or late 600’s… or even that low…. I had just used up a large percentage of my established or available credit was the only problem prior to this…. The next incident happened just a few months ago back when I made a bunch of ach transactions request using one of the popular banking apps for moving money and the bank thought I was doing something illegal I guess and their fraud department contacted me. They kept trying to verify that I was who I said I was from one transferred call to another for several hours… and finally letting me get off the phone…. I still had several credit cards with 53rd bank totaling maybe $16,000 or more at least if not more and I Inquired about them and they hadn’t closed them at the time. They shut down my online banking completely with no access whatsoever and all of my checking accounts there with that bank as well. Anyway, that was their judgment when they came back not able to find anything to accuse me off so they closed all of my accounts they had access to and shut down my online banking completely…. apparently different departments handle different things… I have a total credit worth of over $100,000 …. from credit cards of all types, lines of credit, etc. and have tried to maintain that limit for at least the last 15 years if not longer give or take with standard fluctuations in the amount as can be expected but I’ve pretty much held it there….. And of course credit scores close to the 700’s give or take, nobody’s perfect of course….
I have a phone provider that I’ve been with for about 7 years or so since I was seeking a certain Type of feature or service back then instead of Paying for a whole phone line or service just to Get that….Faxing… “RINGCENTRAL” was the name of the company and they gave me exactly what I needed back then Along with a lot of extra bells and whistles. Now 7 years later, l see everyone using SMS and have been shopping around like before to See if I could get it separate or add it to what I Already have. A lot of companies have it but have company Wide issues with it as I’ve read online but my old Service provider could add that to what have with no problem I thought. That’s was when my problems began and it’s Taken them over a month now to add this simple Service between try to hack my computer and phone thru their remote assistance app ....Yep, i watched them... they made at least 2 or 3 separate attempts... and just Screwing up my service so i keep having to cancel the upgrade and request it again and then a new problem would arise. A lot of companies have a disclaimer now when they have to access your computer or device remotely since a lot of this type of activity does really occur. So, this is month number 2 and still attempting to get SMS service. They have a department Called TCR which handles SMS for them and they require a certain type of account just to be Able to get it. Finally I research it online and find that I could meet the account requirements in just minutes by going thru a few bells and whistles with another entity online. I thought, problem finally Solved…. Nope, I try to go thru the steps myself To get the service and get charged $4 Consecutively for each failed attempt to complete the registration process and here I am again at more than 5 Attempts to complete the Process…. I finally stopped and called support and they told me to call back next week…. here We are….
I’ve been having bad experiences with my local WALMART superstore located in Centerville and Snellville - Georgia area…. Just a few bad Apples basically but maybe no one is even aware. I order groceries from the store maybe only a few miles away and this particular driver keeps delivering to the house down the street and my house number is clearly marked at my location so they are probably doing it on purpose or getting paid to do it. I’ve heard of invalid or incorrect GPS but your eyes usually should make the final decision if it’s not just plain laziness and I’ve even caught myself in the act before and decided to take a little more time to determine the correct address. The delivery program is cheaper than gas and saves me from impacting my health as a Retired Senior Citizen so it’s more than worth it. I get charged an extra $$$ for reordering the same groceries within minutes and having them redelivered sooner to avoid the wrong delivery lapse of time so you can ask for compensation and they usually actually give you a few $$$ compensation to use at your next checkout. I’ve actually walked down my street and observed the actual driver in the act and didn’t interfere of course… So I’m guessing I’m not the only person this is happening to or has happened to. This has been maybe the 4th or 5th occurrence and finally the situation is being escalated to upper level management and the driver could be fired but at least someone else is aware of the situation if they decide to sweep it under the rug… So hopefully I’ve helped someone else out in this process…
B E W A R E - F R A U D - and hack attempts as XFINITY reps all of a sudden on a call try to sell you something especially a new phone... I had an indian female rep on the phone who suddenly diverted me from my original call to an attempt to try to sell me a new phone but by fraud by trying to instruct me on how to respond to certain questions as well as try to convince me of the type of phone i had or would be trading in towards the new phone. -- Trying to hack your phone -- since i noticed someone on 3way listening in... i originally called for a quick few minutes response on how to return some useless Cameras which you can only use on their system to them and ended up being on the phone over an hour with the rep steadily trying to be convincing. They basically had me running around town to the wrong places to return their Cameras.... Which i finally ended up driving to one of their local stores to return - very quick and simple.... Btw: Out of the 6 Cameras i purchased, only one of them worked and their indian tech support couldn't tell me what the problem was except they may be having issues on their end of some sort to try back in 4 hours.... No, I didn't buy their phone since the rep quoted me the wrong prices and model numbers of the phones as I found out when i was shopping around elsewhere... F R A U D. - F R A U D. - F R A U D - I recently had a problem with one of my internet services (i have several) from a cable tv and internet provider XFINITY and where i upgrade from basic internet to 1200 megabits or 1.2 gigabit as they call it. i was getting maybe 30 megabits down and it would fluctuate and sometimes even 200 megabits down range depending on whether I connected using router or modem directly....strange.... The Standard Xfinity Max offering is 1.2 gigabit down and 20 megabit upload which is known as "FAKE" internet....or only HALF an internet and you have to ask XFINITY - where the other 880 megabit upload speed ?? One of my other internet providers - AT&T - gives 900 megabits both upload and download at all times so there's the difference in what you get and what you are actually paying for when you dare to ask what your network can handle - cameras - servers - computers - phones - or anything that uses a lot of bandwidth - my AT&T held 12 to 14 cameras recently with 10 to 15 other items im guessing since i was busy updating it and i just happened to notice it getting just a little sluggish but it bounced right back up... --- My new - XFINITY - internet or network at their 1.2 gigabit and 20 megabit download that was running right beside it almost DIED with barely 5 or 6 cameras running and 2 almost new extra empty routers attached... whole internet would FREEZE and cut in and out... i had to call XFINITY to find out why their proprietary cameras were not working - i could only add one and no more... they gave me the runaround pretty much... still Indian techs of course.... Their proprietary cameras only work on their network or internet so if you drop their service - their proprietary cameras are totally USELESS - can't use them anywhere else... they are just door stoppers... I shouldn't even have to mention the price difference where you get what you pay for except one wants all your fingers along with your arms and legs....lol Other providers are seemingly the same way so you can always tell when you are with the best provider... No complaints since you've already shopped around... Anyway, There appeared to be indian techs assisting me and several of them it turns out since i started at 10 am with a regular guy and then later after running to the store and purchasing replacement equipment i ended up with 5 or 6 indians assisting me till maybe 9pm that evening and still not able to resolve the problem after texting back and forth on a text call for me to test my speed. Text call finally dropped ending the call.... it seemed like a just a joke to me since indians were assisting me since i got back from the store. i just called it "Coming to America to live the dream" or just gay bashing... This was really the XFINITY ASSISTANT acting like Indian techs and only made for quick fixes otherwise they left you in a endless repair loop like mine... i called a different day and a 10 minute equipment reset took 45 minutes so i had to call back and the XFINITY ASSISTANT finally recognized that my reset was complete...so they don't even keep track of time.. The regular guy was trying to get me to lease the company internet equipment which i refused to from the very beginning since i had a choice of providing my own. Then he offered me a free gift which i still had to pay for service on and I refused that as well since I already had a cellphone and watch service with them already.... so I finally left the call and went to get replacement equipment. I assumed the techs thought i was using an old laptop which i had been attempting to upgrade from the 10 megabit to barely 100 megabit Ethernet and wifi to the new gigabit speed I paid for. i ordered parts after reading reviews from other people who attempted to upgrade their own laptop and mine was 20 to 30 years old or so I'm guessing. Yes I successfully upgraded both Ethernet and wifi to gigabit and was only doing research when ordering the other parts to see if i had any other options since the views had mixed outcomes with most of them failures. Also, this laptop had early Windows 7 on it which i upgraded to Windows 10 Pro 64 bit with an upgrade disc or compilation i made so the upgrade does work but you must know how to do it yourself and get past the compilation errors. So i made both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows 7 to Windows 10 upgrade discs or compilation disc. i suspected these people knew i had an old door stopper as they called the old equipment and were going to laugh at me when a service tech is scheduled to come out since i would get charged since the problem would be my old ancient laptop. Issue is still not resolved till now and no one would known about my research or upgrade attempts considering all the parts I purchased which didn't work if i wasn't still under investigation by law enforcement from prior times. So people - keep your nose clean because the investigations never really end at all... i never said they didn't know what they were doing since i had an incident on a new job years earlier when I didn't know what i was doing at a pizza joint and the Customer grilled me over the phone - yep grilled me and spit me out because I didn't know how to do something. i had speech problems anyway growing up and all thru school (even now) and this didn't help matters any. Of course the guy who hired me took the call when the customer called back and was very apologetic since i overheard. A manager came in not too long afterwards and wanted to hire the guy away somewhere else because of his performance. i was never trained there but had worked at pizza joints before since I knew what to do but i never made a salad before in my life and i got grilled over the phone for that. i had other similar situations in other prior jobs - no training - MONTGOMERY - WARD...Bladensburg, Maryland....They sent various people to my location there...even PROSTITUTES...and i just managed and of course i'm not working there anymore. Anyway i notice i had company other times when I visited that same pizza franchise LITTLE - CAESAR different location.... an agent with glasses just looked at me from time to time with a grin on his face as the people there claimed to get my order wrong or made me wait an extra hour for a 10 minute pizza... Nope, the investigations are never really over and yes i'm still taking the crap....and yes i still do get other visits as well from time to time....

 If they didn’t already tell you, Cisco license used to be 
 only good for only a few years then you have to renew 
 

 or loose your license - yep -  don’t know if they 
 changed that yet since I studied for it years ago and 
 

 walked away - used to be 
  
 $ 1 , 5 0 0   
 
 just for
 

the first exam and there are probably hundreds of 


exams by now.

  So get the experience and walk away unless you 
  

  absolutely love spending money and working because 
  you are really just promoting them….


  It’s just expensive computer networking technology….
  

  Same with Comptia A+ and Network+ licenses now I 
  

  think but us - OLD TIMERS - don’t have to renew.

Quick Computer Technology Tips

!!!!! Windows 7 to Windows 10 Upgrade still Available !!!!!
!!!!! And maybe even upgrade to Windows 11 !!!!!!
So those people who still have Windows 7 don't have to buy a new Computer unless you really just want Windows 11 which is a little difficult to upgrade to but it can be done....
You may not even be able to buy a Windows 10 computer for that matter unless you find one on clearance....
if you notice, there's almost no support for anything older than Windows 10 unless you know how to find it yourself....including software....unless it will run on Windows 10...
you can keep all or most of your installed software and all of your files - upgrade software will let you know what's upgradable or Compatible with Windows 10.....

this upgrade solution is available on at least one of the Microsoft forums if you know where to look - i haven't been back there in quite a while.. Yep it sure is, i looked all over the internet for a solution and found one there but the ones mentioned there didn't always work since Microsoft kept upgrading their windows and everyone had questions and needed help...
yes i did successfully create a 32 bit and 64 bit upgrades from their solution not too long ago and upgraded an old crashed Windows 7 laptop just recently which i reloaded after backing up the files and software and reloading them back then upgrading just to see if it would work. i found solutions to other issues as well in the process so it was really worthwhile.... problems probably plaguing other people... but i'll keep that and other things to myself for now...

……….Unofficial……

 if you are still afraid of waking up to this then 
   maybe you should run your windows installation
   as a virtual machine...
 you
Can port or create a virtual machine out of your
Running windows and run it on VMware, some 
Servers, Synology, Windows emulators, Macs / Apple 
(these come with their own virtual Windows for
Free).   Otherwise the rest of the virtual machine
Compatible mentioned above are paid software
Requiring you to have the base system to run them
On.   Virtualbox is still free and runs on both Mac /
Apple and PC and Unix and others as well..



The virtual machines are usually able to catch and
Repair the Microsoft BOD - Blue Screen Of Death
- among other things…most of the time…
I’ve been breathing a sigh of relief many times as well as panic when
I got the BOD on my Synology server and VMware
Installations… but they fixed themselves 
miraculously….  I had to pinch myself really hard 
When my windows booted back up….

Yes I dabble in bitcoins and ethereum as such for the last 10 to 15 years at least if not longer. I started out with the all-in-one bitcoin services like a drive-thru that provides everything for you and of course you pay a price for the services. They have a bullseye on you pretty much and you do tend to get hacked from time to time, just like fresh fish…or meat…easy targets…

Every now and then someone would approach you for a business venture and yes I’ve been taken at least once maybe twice for quite a bit of doe, even just help someone on a dating site and they wanted you to pay in “bitcoins”….so be wary of requests to pay in “bitcoins”….so no no more ventures….

Bitcoins transactions usually can’t be traced or investigated if someone robs you blind…..or you may not even be aware until it has already happened and you are flat broke…..

Yes, a high demand for bitcoin knowledge and money as well. You see it on tv from time to time, these people that get caught using bitcoins the wrong way yep, yep you still have to report what you make.

It’s a learning experience and yes it’s like having another bank account just for bitcoin saving and transactions. I eventually branched out and left the all-in-one drive-thru service and got my own separate thing which you can do and life has been great without all the hidden fees and money they make off of you newbie’s lack of knowledge.

I had started mining bitcoins and it was pretty Lucrative at times and unregulated earlier on but after a while everyone had to report in to big boys and you know who they are…..yep, you have to pay taxes on your earnings now or not too long ago too just like those new banking apps where you transfer funds back and forth.

The big boys count some of transactions as income believe it or not, even if you are just helping someone out in a time of need. They are all electronic transactions, can’t hide them…. Somebody sees them…. Even your bitcoin accounts….all of them….

Bitcoins is not cash or credit, and cash or credit is not bitcoins so don’t confuse them. Bitcoins are bitcoins, cash is cash, and credit is credit - none of that has ever changed not that I know of….even today…. You just interchange them like foreign money, they are just recognized foreign or Internet or digital currency.

Only few people accept bitcoins today so you still have to convert them to the dollar in order to use them just like any other type of currency. Yep, I’ve both made and lost money in bitcoin like anyone else but it’s still an experience that many don’t have since I have my own thing now as they call it and not using the all-in-one service that I started out with.

I almost cried when I saw the fees when going to transfer my bitcoins funds out - they didn’t want you to go…. even for just a few bitcoins, you almost had nothing left at the end of the transfer but I left anyway.

The mining has its ups and downs and completely collapsed about a year or two ago but I still monitor it just like the stock market to see how things are going…. Yep, just like the stock market….. Gotta know how to understand it just like reading an electronic or building blueprint or drawing….

Like they say, nature always finds a way to fix itself when something goes wrong or somebody screws something up…. when you just don’t know how to do something, you find another way…. always another way to learn or do something….

Also, have you considered getting “VONAGE” phones or box ?    It’s an internet phone or box you just plug into your network switch or Internet router and plug a
regular home phone into it and get your normal dialtone and Can work from anywhere that has internet…. Both are different though but the same principle…
or just get standard ip phones that works the same way but they are proprietary.
Technically you can unplug this and take it anywhere with you and plug it in anyway where there is an
Ethernet connection or port or hardwired internet connection and it should start working again with the number you ported or were using.
The home or residential phone option is still the best deal so far since most of the bugs have been fixed so far.
The commercial or office version is buggy and still full of bugs.
They managed to finally get sms or texting working over the Voip phones and might eventually make it to the home or residential phone setup in the future.
That feature just went down recently on the commercial version so more problems still for their commercial product.
Anyway, It’s one of the original VoIP or ip phones… and you can even use your same home phones in some cases, you just need their VoIP box….
  I’ve had one myself for quite a while…
Once you port your numbers once you can take the  Phone or box anywhere….
  You don’t even need a full office anymore or a office  anymore for that matter…

New Printers

I suppose some of you may have been in the market for 
a new printer and have discovered that
you have to be really specific and detailed now in what 
you purchase.
The new thing is that some of the newer printers only 
work with certain computers or laptops
now, especially Apple or MacOS.
If you have an older Mac then your Desktop or laptop 
will not work with a newer printer unless
of course it can install and run the latest MacOS or 
something close to it
otherwise you are just out of luck and have to buy a 
new Mac computer.


With Windows you are usually fine except for the 
problem of finding drivers for your specific
desktop or laptop.

So Windows is a bit more flexible and usually supports 
most printers except for the really old ones.

So, watch out and don't get rid of your old printer 
unless you have a good reason to or you just can't
find drivers for it or it's not supported at all.



   Old Monitors 
  
 

 Some of you may have older vga or hdmi monitors 
 laying around for emergencies but you may discover 
 that they might not
 work when hooked to a newer pc either Mac or 
 Windows.
  
  Yep, you usually get the "Scan out of 
  range" error message or "Resolution out 
  of 
  range" error message. 
So those monitor will probably only work on an older 
PC or Mac unfortunately and may actually be totally 
useless to you. 
So check your old monitors or even tv's with vga or 
hdmi ouput because
they might be just taking up valuable space for nothing.
