This week, I got call from them that there was a new credit application submitted using my identity. I told them it’s not me and application is fraudulent. They told me they will investigate it and get back to me. But they did tell me that application was submitted with Chase. So I called Chase to get more information on the application but they didn’t see any new application under my name or social security in their systems. I am not sure if I will 100% trust them because people I talked to seemed a little confused.
Two days later, LifeLock e-mailed that their investigation is complete & application is stopped. I called them to get more details so that I could file a police report but they told me that police need to subpoena them, for them to release any further information. Seems a little stupid to not release enough information to help police investigate this and actually prosecute someone.
In a way, I am glad that they did caught this and informed me but if they are not going to help me get these crooks caught, what the point of using their service.
I think sun, rotation of earth, evolution, solar system, everything got it wrong. Not all humans need 24 hours day. I remember reading somewhere that if any clue of time is taken away from humans, like lock them in a windowless room, they will stay awake for 24 hours and sleep for 12.
Anyways since I don’t have any obligations to get up at any particular time, I am pretty much living 36 hour days. However, every once in a while I have an appointment when I should be sleeping. And it is really tough to stay awake after 24 hours. So I discovered Melatonin.
Melatonin resets your sleep cycle. I take it well in advance. I can fall sleep when I am not sleepy and be fully alert during appointment or meeting later on. I think it should be prescription only drug, but for now it is available over the counter. What so great about this drug is that you need to take it only once. You will likely get sleepy at same time next night. I am able to change my sleep cycle at will. And I haven’t noticed side effects at all.
Well one of the side effects, is that you will dream vivid dreams. But I love vivid dreams. In fact, lately I am taking Melatonin to experience vivid dreams. Just be careful, don’t take it after watching a scary movie cause nightmares can get really scary too.
I hate doing stuff like this but since I got nothing really to do at work, so I just call people. Well I call people to complain.
For example, other day I ordered 3 KFC Snackers at 11PM through drive-through. I know at 11PM, just an hour before they close, you will not get the freshest sandwich but these Snackers were grossly stale and old. I threw them away and didn’t think about it until next day when I found the receipt in pocket at work.
So I called KFC complaint/customer satisfaction line, told the guy on phone exactly what happened, I didn’t really expected anything in return but KFC is sending me $15 gift certificate.
Then other day my A/C start leaking water inside my apartment, and it didn’t feel cold enough. Normally, it takes couple of days for my apartment management to fix stuff. I gave my apartment management a call. Usually, I would just say that A/C is broken, please fix it ASAP. But this time I spent 15 minutes talking to the manager about how hot the weather is, how hard it is to sleep in a hot bed, how I am so sleepy at work, how I could lose my job and how it will be his fault if I lose my job. The manager was trying his best to get off the phone but I kept on talking until he promised they will fix it before I get home. They did, in fact, fixed it before I got home.
So sadly bitching works better for you. My next step is to call my auto loan provider and have them lower my interest rate. I have 8 hour, 5 days a week, 3 weeks to talk to them.
