@BOIndiaOfficial Hey @BOIndiaOfficial - tagging again, please help a fellow citizen. Thanks.

Hey @BOIndiaOfficial , we applied for a 5 year e-visa for our child, were charged a fee for the 5 year visa, but then granted a visa for 90 days. Please get that corrected and the 5yr evisa issued, as requested. Tx.
Both parents of the applicant are Indian citizens.

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

@BOIndiaOfficial I can send the application details via DM.

Hello @SECGov and @CaliforniaDFPI - I've submitted a complaint about with each of you. Looking forward to your help with the resolution. Thanks.

Hey @RobinhoodApp I'm a RH Gold member. Plz get me in touch with someone from your support team. I've tried calling (only get a pre-recorded message) and emailing (get a preset unhelpful response). Even tried escalating internally through a RH employee but no luck @AskRobinhood

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

Update: No progress still! @RobinhoodApp

Sent an email to the social support last week, got a templated reply. Asked for an update on Friday, and got a response today to send an email to the same address! It feels like I'm just chatting with automated systems, not real humans.

Feel free to reach out if you want to know the details of my frustrating experience. The VFS folks are apathetic to applicants time and other commitments. Shame on you @vfs

You should know that applications for other Schengen countries are progressing normally. Only Slovenia applicants are stuck. I was going to visit Slovenia for tourism but I'm reconsidering now.

@groby Fantastic!

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

Since I didn't get the letter, so I'm not the one at fault, could you please revert the penalty fee for me and send the letter again so that I know what kind of testing I need?
I'm happy to send the car details in a DM.
Thank you 🙏

Hello @CA_DMV - I never received the ca registration letter from DMV. My registration was due last month. I realized that today, went to the website to pay the fees, and realized: 1) I'm being charged a penalty 2) It isn't clear which kind of smog test I need.

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

@lcamtuf This happens some times in the Bay Area also, which is to say: I'm not sure it is related to lack of techies in the area.

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

@CA_EDD Thanks for letting me know. I did discover this yesterday and left a request for update in the account and now awaiting response 🙏

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

Hello @CA_EDD - we filed a non-work-related disability claim in Nov. Got mail saying documentation missing but we did send all the docs through the practitioner. The helpline always force disconnects ("too many callers"). Can you plz help? Happy to share details in DMs. 🙏

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

Here's Chrome confirming that link as deceptive. So, @GavinNewsom, can you please get this fixed asap? Thanks.

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

Mr. @GavinNewsom - there's only one way to contact @CA_EDD and it doesn't work. This tape can't get redder. Can you please investigate?
See https://t.co/QLS5GvOzU6 - every single tweet to them is about dysfunctional phone lines.

[Varun Khaneja 🛡 @aawc]

That tweet has been removed by Twitter now but here's a screenshot. They're posing as EDD and posting deceptive links.
