Re: Google Finance Still Plagued By Data Problems!

Google finance has failed, after a number of weeks, to correctly display names and current prices for some of the Canadian TRUSTS that have recently (Dec10/Jan11) converted to corporations. I've notified them numerous times over the past weeks, yet still cannot get some of them to display, or display correctly. For the time being, I've moved back to Yahoo Finance for my main portfolio... this is really maddening!

Awesome, thank you so much. I just noticed that I've been charged since April of 2009 at $12 a month. Unfortunately, the moment I noticed the charges I called the phone number that is listed on the charge on my bank account and canceled. I have the affidavit and they have promised to reimburse me for four months but I'm worried now that since I canceled I'll have a hard time getting the rest of the money back, what do you think? Wish I had read this first I would have just claimed a child did it!

That site was shut down by Tim Hortons, the new site is www.thetdlgroupltd.com and I have started adding stories of others who no longer care what Tim Hortons threatens to do to them as we want everyone to know what is REALLY happening.

I tried to get on the site you indicated, but all it was was a title and nothing more. Please elaborate.

I agree with Greenwa4, what is their motive for bashing Dolf? Do they themselves have any hard evidence against the man or are they too pushing their own agenda (read profits) makes you think.

Greenwa4 — Sat, 23 Oct 2010 01:10:29 -0000

John T. Reed, Sarah Newman and other want to be advisers seem to think that by bashing other that make them experts... WRONG! I have used Real Estate Ideas and become set for life in less them 3 years... not because I obtained any great value from Dolf or many others but the basic idea and connections from gatherings of theirs has been of help to me. John sounds like a low level bum.

Re: Einstein On Compound Interest (Rule Of 72)

Glory — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 23:11:15 -0000

True... applying the formula of F=P(1+i)to the power of n... taking the consideration of compounded monthly interest rate...

that is F= future value of money
P=Present Value
i=rate/time
n=time*months of compounded rate in a year

e.g. F=100,000 (1+72%/12) power of (12*1)
= 100,000 (1.06) power of (12*1)
= 100,000 (2.01)
= 201,219.65 (double from 100,000.00)

I just noticed that I've been charged for the past 3 months - $12 a month. when i called they told me that i signed up for this service through shutterfly. bull@^*(! when i went to my shutterfly account, my account history shows no orders in the last 6 months -- so...how could i have "agreed" to this service three months ago when i haven't ordered from shutterfly in over 6 months???? and, yes, the guy on the phone from reservation rewards was VERY defensive and down right rude to me (tell tale sign that they know they are a scam). i can't wait until tomorrow when i can call shutterfly and tell them what i think about them-- and ...sadly, i've been a customer since 2000. how can the state allow this place to stay in business? i willl be putting in a call to the atty. general's office as well. what a bunch of scumbags...

Re: Bubble Watch: Real Estate Waiting For A Catalyst

rmoore321 — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 15:35:21 -0000

The media does tend to sensationalize their real estate news reports. Some creative license is normal for newspapers and TV shows that need to sell themselves. As far as Vancouver goes, there is no real estate bubble in this city. Vancouver's real estate prices are a simple function of basic supply / demand economics. Supply is tight, demand is steady and strong. Under this scenario, home prices tend to rise more often that not

I can't trust Google Finance either. I created a portfolio and added my stock and bonds. It kept all my stocks and deleted all my bond symbols. I have recreated this problem over 4 times. I manually add the bonds (not through edit portfolio), then I click edit portfolio, SAVE, and then all my bond symbols disappear. EVERY TIME. Sad isn't it that you can't be heard on these simple issues. It's like you would want to be a columnist so they would see what your writing to the masses and take you seriously or even just to get noticed. Not in a hate full way, but just to get there bugs and problems taken care of.

I have just found out that I, too, have been charged 12 dollars a month for 2 years from Reservation Rewards. I bought flowers on-line, they offered a 20 dollar refund if I joined...apparently, all I gave them was my email address. "Martha" at the help desk tells me that by giving this email address I gave permission for them to take my visa information from my florist bill and charge me each month.
This is outrageous. I am seeking legal advice.

Re: WebLoyalty (aka Reservation Rewards) Scam

Thankful for your Posts — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 11:16:33 -0000

I was just asked to join WebLoyalty after purchasing tickets through Ticketmaster. It does clearly state that in order to get a $20 voucher you must pay $12 a month after an initial free month. What it doesn't state is how the rewards program works and/or what rewards are available. A quick google search brought me to various blogs such as this one. I will not join and thank each of you for having posted.

Go check out the sites www.thetdlgroupltd.com and www.timhortonslies.wordpres... and see what this company is all about. How does someone else own the name of the company that owns Tim Hortons, how can a company this big let that happen? A group is gathering to go public about this, promissory notes, the reselling of the same stores over and over. Not a stock I would want to own. That original site timhortonsfranchise was shut down but these 2 new ones are up and running

just found out myself i was being charged 10 a month for the same thing since 2007. until 2011. almost 500 worth of charges. they offered only 40 bucks of refund!!! what can i do ?

Re: WebLoyalty (aka Reservation Rewards) Scam

rtn_dtn — Mon, 10 May 2010 14:18:33 -0000

Reservation Rewards got my DISCOVER credit card info when I purchased at Orbitz for air ticket. There is no warning that I had agreed to membership in email or postal mail. They promised to cancel my membership & refund but that remain to be seen. I call DISCOVER card dispute center & they finally admitted that they are ware of this scam when I told them I found such complaints online as well as on ABCNews 20/20 which happened in '06. Now it's '10 & it's still happening to me & others, obviously Federal Government USPS is not doing anything with all the complaints they received including mine.

Google Finance data is crap. Try looking at the 200 day simple moving average on a 5 year chart. It is TOTALLY wrong, I mean not even close at all. Really disturbing that people might be making serious decisions based on this junk, based on Google's reputation in other areas.
