Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    While you were typing that you could have clicked on both links.

    To be honest I'm glad of anything that takes up a bit of extra time at the moment!

    I was going to post that people could at least say what links are for?
    They mightnt be SFW !

    We have operated various calling services for many years from the UK to allow international calls to be made using inclusive minutes on mobiles and landlines.

    and who's we?

    I posted details of a service that people can use to make free calls from their inclusive minutes from Ireland, but the moderators here don't want anyone to hear about it. They have sent me a warning and have deleted the post. I would have thought a service which just covers its costs to help people stay in touch during this pandemic would be helpful. It seems not.

    It did look like spam tbh, maybe if the formatting was a bit better it would be acceptable.
    Knowing nothing about the site itself.

    Rosetta Stone only allows Free up to Lesson 2 then asks you to purchase future lessons. Bit of a bummer

    When I go to the Rosetta stone site it says it is free only for students

    I wonder could we have the first post with all of the links to the great bargains rather then having to scroll through the whole thread?

    just fyi, search shaw academy here in boards and there's a few posts that are not complimentary to shaw academy...so buyer beware, even if it is free. I've never used them, so maybe they're fine, other people may have positive things to say about them

    I'll give my 2 cents, i got a free sports nutrition course when signing up to a running event a few years ago and really enjoyed it, I got alot out of it personally as opposed to using it to benefit professionally tbf.
