What ever you decide to do, don't make it about the salary. All that will do is make an awkward situation worse.

If we switch the phone to airplane mode and back we get the following error:

As I said, I've checked them against the details in my phone and, unless I've missed something, they're identical. But I will double check.

The frustrating thing is that no one we've talked to at customer support seems to understand what the problem is. They don't seem to have picked up on the "R" thing at all.
ChrisF

Just checked the website and can't see anything.
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 20:49
They didn't suggest that, so I'm guessing not.
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 20:39
Well I've posted a question, let's see how that goes.

We've talked to the operator and they sent a new sim - which exhibits exactly the same problem. Their last word was to the effect of "it's a problem with your handset".
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 20:29
We'd worked out that the "R" stands for roaming ;)
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 20:00
What keywords should I be searching for?
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 20:00
Other than that, is there anything we can do to get the phone to recognise the correct network?
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 19:59
We haven't tried a factory reset of the phone yet.
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 19:59
I'm also with Plusnet and if we swap sims hers works properly in my phone but mine still shows the "R". This make me think it's something wrong with the phone itself.
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 19:58
The operator piggybacks on EE and the name at the top left says "EE - plusnet", but there is an "R" over the mobile signal strength indicator.
ChrisF
Aug 16, 2018 19:57
Going to Settings -> More -> Mobile Networks -> Network Operators shows a list of possible networks (The usual UK ones: EE, Vodafone etc) but not the one she's with.

My wife has recently switched mobile operator and now can't get mobile data. Phone calls and text are OK. WiFi is OK.

I have a question that I'm not sure is on topic & I'm not sure how to frame it as a good question either ;)

It is a hold over from the camera I had before the 450/Rebel
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:40
The 70D still has the red locator dot so my old (and probably crappy) 75-300 would still work.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:38
I'd like to be able to take action shots, but I think my lack of skill is the main thing holding me back there ;)
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:37
No that's not what I meant - non zoom is what I meant
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:37
To that would be a fixed focal length lens?
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:35
So this weekend I wanted to use it a wedding and if I'm on holiday then I'd like to take the scenery.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:35
Portraits and landscapes I suppose.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:33
Ah right.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:32
I was thinking of upgrading to IS lenses.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:31
That one's got the red locator dot and it older technology. So I could get a body and new longer lens.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:31
@PhilipKendall The 18-55mm that came with the Rebel kit and really old 75-300mm.
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:30
So the lower the number of digits in the name the better?
ChrisF
May 6, 2018 20:29
@PhilipKendall Ah. I did wonder
ChrisF

A quick search of Canon products has turned up the 1300D, but should I be going "up" a model or two? I don't want to spend loads of money though. For example, I've found a second hand 1300D on ebay with two lenses for £400 - ebay.co.uk/itm/… - is this the bargain it seems to be?

I've got to start saving up for a new camera. My SLR died at my brother-in-law's wedding yesterday. It was a Canon EOS450/Digital Rebel. Quite a few year's old. I don't do a great deal of photography these days but still like to use an SLR when I do.

@MaskedMan You can disagree while still being civil. No one is suggesting you can't disagree.

@MisterPositive If you need to prefix your comment with "not to be a jerk" you are clearly aware you are being a jerk. While room topics can vary, if a mod asks you to keep it on topic, I'd listen.

@PaulWhite Will do. I've got half a dozen other things on the go at the moment so it might be a couple of days before I get round to it.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 14:00
@PaulWhite Probably. At least we're not using a float :)
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:59
@PaulWhite The problem is that the SQL<>C# conversion is done in generated code and I it's rather a large file to search and examine. I think that that's my next step - find the actual code that does the conversion and see if there's a difference there.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:57
@Lamak It appears to be repeatable.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:57
@Lamak Yes. That's consistent.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:56
@PaulWhite That's what I was afraid of.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:55
Is it worth asking this as a question? Or am I missing something obvious?
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:55
But the database that's incorrect is also on SQL Server 11.0.6248
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:54
Well the database that's correct is on SQL Server 11.0.6248
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:53
@PaulWhite Ah.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:46
@Lamak It's a C# decimal. I'm thinking that the problem is in the conversion but I can't see anything obvious.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:44
@Lamak The code is C# and the value is decimal, the database is MSSQL and the column is money
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:44
@sp_BlitzErik I had that thought, but the calculated value is independent of locale.
ChrisF
Aug 9, 2017 13:43
I'm saying "appear" a lot because they should be the same, but I haven't checked everything.
