Way too realistic

Edit: If the site becomes unresponsive, try disabling your adblock. The site doesn’t serve any actual ads. The issue is probably unintentional, but actually it does add to the realism xD

    Also LOL at Dennis saying he can’t see the survey because apparently it goes to another team, but then says that he knows I took the option that I’ll miss him on business days.

    Brings me flashbacks to trying to cancel a telecom subscription in France.

    They have services there that will take 15eur or so to do it for you, and yep… it’s worth it.

      Still in the EU, I used a service to switch electric companies. All the telcos offer to cancel your old contract, but then they fight each other and you’re always the loser. It’s unreal.

        Not my experience at all. There are well defined processes, you pay 2 bucks to send a letter with delivery guarantees and its done. Yeah, that’s old school and not online, but it works, comes with legal guarantees and has always been absolutely hassle free for me.

        That being said, not all EU countries are the same.

          You know, I think my mistake might be doing this in person. People can “yes, yes” you all they want, but, like you said, registered mail is legally hardcore.

            You should always assume you’re getting screwed over without a paper trail, plenty of reasons why that would happen, plain greed not being the last of them.

    It froze and forced me to reload the page four times.

    10/10.

      I was frustrated by how buggy and unresponsive this was.

      Tap for spoiler

      Then at the end it told me that it froze on me 4 times for the lulz. 10/10 top troll.

    How come clicking doesn’t do anything? Or is that the point? Just to see how long (or how many clicks) it takes before you realize that nothing is interactive and you’re just looking at a static image?

      As others have mentioned, adblockers seem to break it somehow. It’s probably not intentional. The page doesn’t serve any (actual) ads, so it’s safe to try disabling your ad blocker. For me, refreshing the page a couple of times also fixed the issue even with uBO enabled.

      You’re not missing much. Every single click simply gives you a cheeky error message. This isn’t realistic at all.

    That was fun! And a reminder that laws, not the market fix stuff like that. smiles in European
