Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Do you happen to have :
My bank was rejecting transfers in the mobile app because I had a vpn profile from an app going 24/7 and I wasn’t aware of it.
You’ll probably see really annoying behavior like being asked to solve puzzles for every other google search if that’s what it is.
The fact you get this error on both accounts makes me think that’s what it is. Try a desktop computer or something that has no apps. Or go try it from a friends house or computer. My home ISP is “range banned” from 4channel because of some idiot gore posting on a board I don’t even visit. You never know.
I don’t have a yahoo address but I have an old aol address and they’re the same company. When I get the prompt about secondary verification methods I have the ability to change phone numbers and backup emails as long as ONE of them works. I don’t know if that’s true on the “yahoo” email side , or if you’re screwed if you only have one on file. (Add one if you can get in!)
Worst case scenario, yahoo/aol let you recreate your inbox after a year of inactivity. It USED TO let “just anyone” steal your email handle. Now it only lets you reclaim it. I had to do that one time for the same reason- no access to backup methods. I was locked out for an entire year but did save a 25 year old address by just rescuing it after 12 months
