两个礼拜前，我要改我的保险的自动扣款账号，其实也就是从工行的一个账号换成另一个账号。于是打了电话到保险公司的客服热线，客服态度不错，解释的也蛮清楚：只要到他们网站上下载账号变更申请表，打印出来填好签名，再附上新账号的一张银行流水单，寄回到他们公司就可以了。听上去蛮简单的，我就照做了。昨天突然接到那家保险公司的电话，号称是我的保险代理人打来的，他说我的账号变更申请没通过审核，因为我的申请表上面的签名和三年前我买保险的时候在保险合同上的签名不一致。我当场被气得七窍冒烟。比对签名的做法，以前只听说信用卡签单时是需要的，账单上的签名要和信用卡背面的签名一致。除此以外，从来没听说过有要比对签名的。护照上是要签名的，但从来没有哪个领事馆要求签证申请表上的签名要和护照上的签名一致的。签名嘛，有时候工整，有时候潦草，潦草和工整的放一起，像是完全两个不同的人签的也很正常。况且，谁他妈的的记得自己三年前的某一份合同上的签名是怎么签的呀。
招商银行也让我很崩溃。上个月去泰国玩，先到的香港转机，在香港停了一天，买着买那的，刷了几万块钱，刷的都是招商银行的信用卡。然后到了泰国，在酒店入住的时候要刷信用卡预授权，我还是拿的招行的那张信用卡。结果刷不出。当时以为是那个酒店的POS机的问题，就换了一张工商银行的卡，刷过了。哪知道之后几天，在那里吃饭、购物，招行的那张卡在哪里都刷不出，就一直靠着工行的那张卡撑着，还好也没再买什么大件。幸亏我每次出去都带两张信用卡的，一张招行一张工行。等回来以后第一时间打电话给招行，客服说卡的确是他们停掉的，因为他们的系统觉得我在泰国入住酒店那笔四千多泰铢的刷卡预授权有问题。客服说，他们的后台系统发现我五月中上旬人还是在美国的，有很多刷卡消费，然后突然就冒出一笔在东南亚的消费，而且东南亚属于信用卡欺诈高发地区，于是他们的后台系统就触发了一个风险警示，当时试图打我电话和我确认那笔消费，但电话打不通，就暂时性的停了我的卡。我听了哭笑不得，多年来对招商银行累计起来的好感和忠诚度瞬间荡然无存。
招商银行之所以当时联系不到我，是因为我的手机到了泰国没法漫游。其实我的国际漫游问题最早是去年十月去香港时候就有了，症状就是开机连不进当地的网络。当时是和苹果一起去，她的手机就没问题，可以漫游，可以收短信发短信。把苹果的卡插到我的手机里，也是可以漫游的。但把我的卡插到苹果的手机里，就不行。所以当时就很确定是我的SIM和我的手机号码的漫游设定有问题。回到上海以后打电话给移动，移动的客服不认帐，说他们那边系统里的漫游设定是好的。结果就不了了之。等去年十二月份去西班牙，问题照旧：我的卡插哪里都不能漫游，苹果的卡在她的手机和我的手机里面都是好的。再之后，上个月去美国和泰国，都是一样的问题。每次出国回来以后打电话给移动，移动的客服都是那套陈词滥调，先是说说是我的手机的问题，然后问郑先生你有没有试过手工选择网络。每次都跟我说，郑先生，你现在已经回到国内了，我们无法帮您检查您的国际漫游的问题，只能等到下次您再出国的时候，如果还是同样的问题，请您到时候再联系我们。我对移动的客服说，我人都到了国外了，手机不能漫游了，我还拿什么给你们打电话呀？你大爷的。
Finally, it’s posted. Was written on May 26 and stayed in pending status for about three weeks until got published yesterday. It was a bit too long. I’d rather to believe that it was because they really reviewed every post seriously. (I guess) That made their site and the reviews worth trust, which is only most important thing for such a review community site to be successful.
Here is my review:
My wife and I took 3 days PADI open water diver course at Thailand Divers from 5/24 to 5/26, for 14000 THB per person (the same price as they listed on their website). We picked this facility after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor.
I am totally satisfied by their services. Signup process, document works, hotel pickup and cars, driver, instructor, gears, pool facility, course materials, breakfast/coffee/lunch on the boat, the crew on the boat, everything is as good as I expected, if not exceeded. They are very professional in handling every single detail.
I am particularly satisfied that they are not trying to sell anything to me. They don’t recommend gears to me; they don’t recommend their other dive tours to me; they don’t try to get me signup advanced course. This is beyond my expectation. They did excellently and very professionally in separating the PADI course from the other business that they are doing.
The instructor Ryan Fryer, a South Africa young guy, is superb. He has been diving for 8 years and in Phuket for 4 years. Nice guy and great teacher. Experienced. Knowledgeable. Patient. Adaptive to different students (slow or fast, aggressive or conservative, shy or open). I am very happy to meet him and had him to bring me into the dive world.
If one day I come back to Phuket to take the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course, the Thailand Divers will be my first choice. I will also recommend every of my friends to choose Thailand Divers if they consider to get Open Water Diver course and certificate in Phuket.

刚刚拿到一辆车的时候，尤其是一些大车，会对车子的位置感比较欠缺。比如，倒车入停车位的时候，从驾驶座看出去，感觉后保险杠应该马上要撞到墙上了，但不是很确信是否感觉的正确。这时候，除非是非常天才的驾驶员，对大部分人来说最好是把车停住，离开驾驶座，下车到后面看一下，到底实际距离还有多少。这样做几次，以后就算不下车看，也会比较有把握能把车子基本停在自己想让它停的位置。
说话很像停车。比如，第一次和新组的全体成员见面，要把自己放在那些老组员的位置上，想想这个新成员说什么会让老组员感觉比较舒服、比较容易接纳这个新成员。虽然这样子的一个思考过程比较辛苦，但多做几次以后，比较有体会有把握了，就算不做换位思考，也能基本有把握听者听到的就是自己想传达的。
西雅图这一片儿，车多，而且好车多，在上海马路上很显眼的车在这里显得非常泯然众人。在上海，满大街的桑塔纳、帕萨特和别克，中间突然出现一辆甲壳虫或者Mini就会有超高的回头率。
这儿满山遍野的车，高速公路上扑面而来的，乡间小道擦肩而过的，从路边咖啡店窗外飘过的，一下子抓住眼球的车并不多。我会回头看的，也就这几种：HUMMER，Z4，MX5，Escalade，SLK，FJ Cruiser，XLR。而且还要分颜色，FJ Cruiser要黄色和蓝色的，HUMMER要黄色的才扎眼，SLK要银色的，XLR要黑的，Escalade要么是一身乌黑的要么是全白的。
但是有一台车，无论是在哪里，无论是白天还是黑夜，无论是什么颜色的，无论有多远，那个轮廓，那个身影，只要出现在我的视野里，周围的一切都瞬间变成了黑白照片，只有它还是彩色的。
