Lobby Guidelines
You've made it through the revolving doors and now you can mingle and mill about. If you feel like spamming, please head down the hall to the right to the RecRoom. But, if you'd like to meet people, chat about nothing in particular, you know...have polite conversation that doesn't seem to fit easily into any of the other rooms, this is the place!
The Lobby is not for serious debates, there are other areas for those types of conversations. It is more for relaxed chatting or discussing things that don't fit elsewhere. Politics, religion and philosophy have their own place on the site
But remember, always play by the rules: here

I've had State Farm since the 80s. They're very good to me.
I had this rental incident where there was paint transfer found on it when I returned it. My mistake was not referring it to SF right there and then. This was when I thought my rental car rider would cover rentals I took out. The rental place docked me 500 bucks (credit card). SF got my report, asked why I didn't call them, and got me to undertand my rider was only for when MY car was out of action and then worked on the rental place.
It so happened the place had given me a bad one...the steering was chattering badly and I had to have a death grip on it. I didn't go back and demand a replacement because I was bound and determined to get to that conference. When I got back I had shared my unhappiness with them. Before the paint transfer was discovered.
Upshot is, I was reimbursed all but 25 bucks. And I figured out that no matter what, it's not worth being on time if it meant putting up with a dangerous car.
SF also saved me in the flooding at my house even though it was my fault.Last edited by DesertBerean; 03-25-2019, 02:31 PM.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette

And so far in order to get all of the specific channels I want, it would cost me even more to try it using streaming. I would have to buy Hulu AND Sling (both packages) and I would still be missing a few channels, and there are really only about a dozen channels that I want.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostYeah, similar to "customer retention", and as for "loyalty" - I often will call when they have a special deal for "new customers only" --- I ask them "do you really believe that NEW customers are more important than LOYAL customers?" I usually get the discounts. I've even used this when a brick-n-murder store tries to con me into signing up for their store credit card with a 30% discount --- "do you REALLY believe that credit card customers are more important than LOYAL customers?"

I guess they figured since I haven't left yet, I wasn't going to.

I have no idea what you mean.
