Previously, Norwegian VAT was collected after the goods were received by the customer.

Now, with the new administration, UPS and FedEx require advance payment of Norwegian VAT - the goods are not delivered until VAT has been paid.

This contradicts Norway's guidelines for payment of Norwegian VAT, which state that this must be paid after the goods have been received.

This means that the individual's rights are limited, restricted and violated.

The consequence of canceling a purchase after the goods have been received is that the customer must expect to never receive a refund of the VAT amount, because the Norwegian state in principle never does this.

A while ago I contacted ID Musikk who are Ketron's distributors in Norway.

I wanted more information about a hard drive for the Ketron Audya 76 that they sell.

Since the price was sky-high - 350 GBP, I took it for granted that all necessary files were included, but wanted this confirmed before purchase, as well as the necessary installation procedures confirmed.

The answer I got was doubly shocking:
The hard drive (an obsolete SSD type) was without data..!

I can get an identical hard drive for a tenth of the price without any problems..!

This hard drive is also a type that Ketron stopped selling many years ago, because it did not work well enough.

And guess what - Ketron USA (Ajamsonic) and ID Musikk have bought up huge quantities of these and are selling them at exorbitant prices..!

ID Musikk would not be helpful in getting a hard drive with all the necessary files - they don't know what customer service means.


So I will probably have to make it myself, as I have done before, but this is a huge job that I would rather not have to do, because I would have to reconstruct its entire OS at PATA speed.

Companies like ID Musikk result in no sensible people buying a new Ketron in Norway, because customer service is non-existent, and they have the highest prices in the world for Ketron products.]]> ID MUSIKK - KETRON NORWAY

This is a company that everyone probably knows about worldwide.

I have been a customer for many years, but will never be again.
The reason is that with my fiber network from Altibox I have "free" access to Netflix, by choosing from the points I have.

I therefore ended my many years of subscription to Netflix, and chose this "free" with points from Altibox.
When I later opted out of Netflix and chose another instead, my bank account was automatically debited by Netflix..!

I sent a complaint to Altibox where I demanded my money back and that THEY should arrange this, which they reluctantly agreed to - they claimed that this was my responsibility..!

I got the money refunded, but the same thing happened again later - my bank account was debited once again, and I repeated the claim to Altibox, whereupon they said that this was the last time they would arrange a refund.

When I go to My Page at Netflix, I see that the card details still exist, even though I am no longer a customer.
Worse - I cannot DELETE them, and there is no way to contact Netflix.

This is a serious breach of GDPR and should have been reported to the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS), but I don't trust them to do their job, as with everything else these days.

I recently had a very negative experience buying a Yamaha MODX M8 from 4Sound Stavanger via their online store.
The product did not meet my expectations in any way, whereupon I exercised my right of withdrawal.
This turned out to be problematic, because 4Sound transferred the responsibility for refunds to Yamaha Germany.

Refunds are ALWAYS the responsibility of the individual store and no one else's.

In my ignorance, I was led to believe that this was Yamaha's responsibility, and I have spent a lot of time without getting a refund - it has been over 1 month since I notified them, and a refund should have been made within 14 days from that date.

What is the basis for 4Sound Stavanger's behavior can be wondered about, while 4Sound Central is almost even worse, as they insisted that the product was purchased in a physical store and thus not covered by the right to a refund..!


I have had repeated negative experiences with my local 4Sound in Haugesund in previous years, which resulted in me choosing the one in Stavanger instead.

Now it turns out that all 4Sound branches are equally bad, and I will never consider shopping at 4Sound again.

So Norway's largest music store is the worst in the industry, and I would strongly advise against anyone shopping at them.


Yamaha has forced through an arrangement with its dealers that they call "Agent sales".
This gives the dealer a commission on each sale, while the payment goes directly to Yamaha.

Yamaha thus appears to be the very cause, and circumvents the current legislation just as it suits them.

Yamaha has developed negatively by showing very poor customer service when using the right of cancellation.

As a result of stubborn distributors, Yamaha has forced through a system where the customer pays directly to Yamaha when purchasing.
This means that the store can only function as an intermediary for the customer if the right of cancellation is to be used.

The refund is thus made by Yamaha, while the store has lost its ability to directly pay the customer back.
This model of buying and selling should never have been approved, because consumer rights are being trampled upon and harmed.

The company I bought from has been exceptional in its assistance in getting the transaction reversed, but Yamaha does not respond to their repeated reminders.

The customer must therefore contact Yamaha themselves, which proves to be very difficult, because the correct address to contact is cumbersome to find, and Norwegian customers are redirected to Germany - there is no one to contact in Norway..!)

It has now been 1 month since I notified them of the desired use of the right of cancellation, but Yamaha still has not sorted it out.

Where did my right to a refund within 14 days of notification of withdrawal become ?


Yamaha doesn't seem to be interested in getting customers in Norway, since all inquiries from Norway are redirected to Germany.

I'll take them at their word and not buy another Yamaha product again - they'll have to prove they know basic manners first.

Groovyband finally replied that their software does not work with MODX M - it only works with MODX, MODX+ and Montage.

However, it turned out that many necessary functions were missing, and that all processes had to be waited for - it was like turning back time to 1994, where everything happened in slow motion.

Consequently, I stopped the subscription, but have since been plagued with repeated reminders in the form of pop-ups, which behave like aggressive viruses with an almost threatening content.

They will soon be sent an email asking them to immediately stop this terror, and that they will remain on my blacklist until this demand is met.]]> https://chellos-keyboard-players-club.com/Thread-FORUMS-YOU-SHOULD-STAY-AWAY-FROM Fri, 01 Mar 2024 08:31:02 +0000 Chello]]> https://chellos-keyboard-players-club.com/Thread-FORUMS-YOU-SHOULD-STAY-AWAY-FROM FORUMS YOU SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM

The world's most nonsensical forum ?
I was Global Moderator there for over a year, and was active in all areas of the forum, which made the others with the same position strongly dislike my presence.
They tried many ways to get me removed, and apparently finally managed to influence the admin to exclude me.
He kept all of my work, and has it available to this day.
Almost all material you find there is stolen from other forums.
This forum's admin has launched a witch hunt to smear me, and bears a large part of the blame for others' participation in this.
Why pay for membership there, when you can find almost all the material for free elsewhere ?

PSR TUTORIAL FORUM
Made up of many of the best known in this type of forum, they generally have a low threshold for matter-of-fact and professional behavior, as most of the staff lack basic manners, and obviously haven't read the guidelines either.
The administration has for many years banned me without any valid reason, and at the same time they have systematically aspersed me and my forum.

KORG FORUMS
Consists of just about anything crawling and walking by people who have anything to do with Korg, but lacks competent moderators, which allows extremely rude comments.
Many of the moderators show inappropriate behavior, and several manufacturers act as if they are moderators, while harassing people who have a negative experience with their products.
One of the worst is the developer of Korg Pa Manager, who couldn't stand me claiming that the program wasn't working as it should.
As a result I was banned for life.

SYNTH ZONE
They banned me for life after reading comments in other forums.
That's how frivolous you can get.
