I've reported on multiple occasions the criminals selling high profile current movies on USB sticks. I'm talking about dozens of ads doing this. Offerup's own policies are being violated and they are completely ignoring this and allowing it to continue. Any site that willingly allows criminal activity to continue isn't worth the time. I believe the site owners should be brought up on charges. I pay to rent movies from Apple and Amazon, and this site allows people to sell 50 at a time on USB for like 30 bucks a pop. If I was to try this the cops would come to my door and arrest me. How they allow it to go on without being busted is beyond me. The site should be shut down.

Okay I got this one year black Friday thing for a buck a month. Good enough to try it out. Didn't really need it got way too much to watch already. But I tried it.

Watched a movie or two, no biggie, seemed like the normal amount of pauses for ads.

Then I watched an episode of Seinfeld a week or two later. An OLD show mind you.

Hulu thought it necessary to stop my watching Seinfeld FOUR TIMES in the first 15 minutes and show me at least two ads each time! I was like WTF? And the show was only half over! It blew my mind LOL. So I didn't even finish watching it and haven't even looked at it since. Deplorable. There's far too many things to watch free with limited ads, like Prime. Hell, get a VPN for 100 bucks a year and download almost anything you can name, with no commercials at all. This Hulu is definitely NOT worth paying for, I hate it for 99 cents a month, definitely would never buy it for any more. Their little Black Friday "plot" to get people in the door real cheap is backfiring largely on them I'm sure.

I have been a Geico customer for over 10 years. 2 years ago for some reason, they started sending me paper bills. I told them to stop it I don't want them. The option in my account for Paperless billing has always been on.
They told me that certain things don't go paperless. But they had been for YEARS before! I let it go. It happened on the next 3 billing periods, I contacted them and was given the same BS each time.

I emailed them last night, got this response from Sara:

"There are certain documents that will be sent through the mail even when you are on a paperless option. This is the case with the renewal bill and the renewal paperwork, including the insurance cards."

Oh but it WAS explained to me. But noone can explain to me why this policy changed two years ago, and why they still have the option for Paperless Billing in accounts.

I called just now and spoke to a Supervisor named Darryl.

He told me there was no way to logistically do what I asked. He could not explain to me why it wasn't a problem til 2 years ago. He tried to get me to change my policy billing to monthly and told me that if I did that I wouldn't get paper bills.
I said, "REALLY? Why would I want to pay the extra fee for monthly billing ($5 a month), just to get you to stop sending paper billa? Does it make ANY sense to you, what you just said to me?" He agree it didn't make sense but that that was the only way to do it.

I threatened to cancel, he did not offer at all to track this issue down. All companies do paperless now! Except, it seems, GEICO insurance.

If they truly went to sending paper bills 2 years ago, how many tons of paper do you think they have needlessly used? NO explanation at all for this action.

I will further quote THEIR OWN WEBSITE:

https://www.geico.com/auto-insurance/paperless-options/

This specifically tells people how wonderfully glorious their paperless billing option is! WTF GEICO?

There is a SYSTEM ERROR causing this in my opionion, and everyone I've talked to is too inept or too far out of touch with anyone that can resolve this issue and are just feeding me nonsense.

If indeed it is intentional, then SHAME ON GEICO for being jerks and killing the planet and wasting TONS and TONS of paper when they are trying to look all goody-two-shoes and claim this "awesome" paperless billing policy on their site!
