  1. My new 2020 Mercedes came with a three year warranty, not the four years that's standard NOB. Who's zooming who? SunFan
  2. I suspect car dealerships in Mexico have their hands in politicians pockets. No pricing competition between Dealers. List price. Sub standard options offered on many models. Shortened warranties. Locked in to original Dealer servicing during warranty. SunFan
  3. Rod sold two new cars to us three years ago and managed the sale of our "trade ins". Couldn't have been happier with the whole transaction. He was persuasive enough to talk me into a new SUV rather than a used one. He has a keen sense of customer service. He follows through on the minutest detail. He'll do very well I'm sure. I do feel badly for Karen and Spencer at S&S,losing such a key employee. They did a fantastic purchase for us 8 years ago. Karen is top notch. SunFan
  4. Whenever I get into a snit about Mexican business practices my wife always calms me down by reminding me I should be grateful that Mexico will never be competitive for world dominance. SunFan
  5. ACD. Thanks for the heads up. Do you have the name of a recommended plan you could share? SunFan
  6. And here I was just going to post to ask about Totalplay's reliability after enduring a four day iLox outage. They "lost" Tuesday's work order and will be here Saturday. Every time I'm about to board a Volaris or Aeromexico flight I think about the competence of Mexico's technicians. SunFan
  7. I don't know about Weber but I've had my BBQ attached to the house propane tank for 6 years now. I'm using a Napoleon grill. SunFan

    AT&T

    same Same story I got on the phone to AT&T. Their agent should never have sold me the plan. But no admission of any responsibility for employing crooks to service their customers. Seems like a new Narco enterprize. SunFan

    AT&T

    I was told by Telcell you have to have an active AT&T account to enable Telcell to port your number. Catch22. After AT&T cancelled my 2 year contract after only 19 months I had to buy one month service for Telcell to port my number. The bastards at AT&T insisted their lowest cost one month prepaid plan was 500 pesos. Still waiting on a response from PROFECO. AT&T's staff should at least wear eye patches and have parrots on their shoulder who you know who your really dealing with! SunFan
  10. I have no experience with accident claims so I was surprised to hear the insurance company dictates where you can get your car repaired. I continue to be dumbfounded that for a society that values family and society so much, Mexicans continue to allow government and companies to flaunt customer rights and service. Whether it be government services, banking, automotive sales, retail or insurance. SunFan
  11. And you say that with a straight face! SunFan
  12. I donate 300 pesos for an interior/exterior wash and leave the latest copy of a car magazine which they get a kick out of. I used to be in and out in twenty minutes to half an hour but with the promotion they're getting I suspect it might take a little longer. SunFan
  13. Do you mean to secure a sliding door so it can't be moved out of the track or do you want some sort of screen or bars on the slider to prevent entry? SunFan
  14. Go Solar 660 watts. Be still my heart. I have a twelve year old system using 240 watt panels and a 5 kilowatt inverter. Is there a way I could add newer panels with microinverters to augment or replace some of the older panels and still retain some the existing panels and inverter? SunFan
  15. I was there last Friday for an 11:00 AM cita. No one ahead of me. I was out in 20 minutes with my renewal license. SunFan
  16. I cleared my cookies a week ago to fix a problem with my banking app. That may be why I wasn't recognized when I signed in to mercadolibre. Many thanks for the phone number. I'll give it a try when I get back from my appointment this morning to renew my drivers license. I hope that goes well. SunFan
  17. Thanks Mostlylost but....... Catch 22 The website for chat requires me to sign in. That's my problem to begin with. mercado libre tells me my account has expired from lack of use. I have never used mercado libre on my smartphone so it asks me to enter my email and phone number then it tells me it doesn't recognize either my landline or cell phone number?????? Unbelievable for an online retail website. SunFan
  18. Went to make another purchase this morning and got a message that my "key has expired" They said I hadn't made a purchase in over three months. Absolutely untrue. I've made three purchase in the last two weeks. But they would kindly allow me to sign back in if I followed their verification process. First a code sent to my email on record. Then a whatsapp sent to me. Then I had to enter my CURP. Then they wanted me to send a scan of my passport. Finally they wanted to photograph my face using my laptop camera. I couldn't get an acceptable photo after trying 6 times. Said the lighting wasn't acceptable. I gave up. What the hell is wrong with this outfit? I've been a regular customer for over 8 years. I can see no way of reaching them. Only a Q&A section. No Chat, no phone number that I can see. The sad thing is I have 91 of their shares in my portfolio. Any ideas to offer? TIA SunFan
  19. Yes, but none that provide me the free withdrawals I enjoy with Scotiabank. SunFan
  20. Exactly the same thing happened to me a month ago. I had a two year contract and they cut off service after 20 months. After proving I had a valid two year contract the reps in the branch called their office and it was explained to me I should never have been given a two year contract in the first place and the rep that signed me up is no longer employed. They are thieves. Totally without integrity and they expressed no shame. The final insult was I had to restore AT&T service in order to port my number to Telcel. Guess what, their lowest cost plan was 500 pesos a month no matter how much I protested. I went off to PROFECO. Lets see what happens, if anything. SunFan
  21. My wife was there this morning and no it's still out of service. SunFan
  22. My point was there is no reason why a competent water system cannot be available Lakeside. It's not rocket science. The SIMAPA water usage fees alone should enable maintenance of the system. The addition/expansion capital cost of wells should be charged to those who benefit. SunFan
  23. It's a sad comment on SIMAPA. Chula Vista, for example, manages its own well system and has for over 50 years. They have their own ownership contract of two wells with CONAGUA, pay CONAGUA rates for each litre extracted, pay for the total extraction quota, perform regular maintenance and test water daily for bacteria and quarterly for heavy metals, arsenic, etc.. The key point is they are able to provide 24X7X365 potable water to residents and fully recover all operating costs by charging SIMAPA rates per cubic meter. Shouldn't SIMAPA be able to do the same? SunFan
  24. My understanding is the deductible is 5 or 10 % of the assessed value of your vehicle. Fortunately, I have no direct experience. SunFan
