Car engineers that think using an Allen head sump plug is a good idea. A Mazda one stripped out today. It made a relatively easy oil change into a bloody saga. Luckily a friend who owns a two post hoist was able to use a chisel and hammer to get the bastard out. The replacement one from Repco was a hex head plug.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.

Allan head plugs are the biggest bastards in the world and belong only in aviation. But on saying that I’ve been progressively working loose Allan head screws from my Territory roof rails (been a bastard), but probably good for anti whistling on rooftops. Why wouldn’t sump plugs just be big old fat hex nipples?? Some uni graduate thought it would look nicer probably.

ANZ Bank.
I am well paid, I work hard and add value and its taken a lifetime to reach where we are. Today my wife went to transfer some funds from the business account only to see the account was restricted, she had bills to pay etc, so rang the bank, sat on hold for 80 mins before Debbie in Bombay answered. Oh yes your account is frozen, we are conducting periodic random reviews of clients accounts and your account has flagged because of the sums going thru the account - You need to justify and prove the funds are from legitimate sources - like WTF??? Check the account history, been like this forever - NOPE, call back and speak to Kevin in Malaysia and plead your case and have your evidence ready to send. Upon successful review the bank will unfreeze your account. This world is getting out of control and there is nothing the mug punter can do to change it. Swap Banks - yeah maybe an option except all the strings attached to the account and it probably may happen again - dunno, wife pissed off at the inconvenience, me, simply annoyed that my money isn't mine unless some AI algorithym says it is. Tomorrow, another chapter, can't wait!!!

Am going through similar but not as painful mate. Had an unidentified US$10 charge on my business card from some medical supplier/place. Commbank flagged it with me which was good, but had to close the card down and put in a dispute on the charge. Account is still operational. They’ve given me the replacement card on the app but I don’t know how to use it physically. Waiting on the hard copy to arrive. Pain in the arse but has to be done.

Yeah, its all identity update for fraud protection. Would have been great if there was a way to identify if their emails are bonafide to begin with. Anyway, 30 mins on the phone verifying I am not a radish with pinko pinko tendencies and all accounts unblocked.
Did you know there is a second licence number on your drivers licence? Is on the back side directly under/on the last digit of the large 4 digit date of birth number - in bloody microdot - and they wanted that confirmed as well - which wasnt possible due to the way the licence is actually printed - its partially covering the number - sure if I had an electron microscope and a CSI Lab it would be easier.
Haha you bloody pinko.
Yeah also got a letter from VicRoads last year that my licence details has been leaked through a finance company called Latitude. Never been with them I thought, but then worked out back when I was broke in the early 2000’s I bought white goods on a buy now pay later scheme through Betta Electrical. Yep you guessed it, via Latitude. Bastards still had my identity documents 20 years after the loan was paid off then hey get hacked. Absolute MOFO’s. Latitude still advertises too the scumbags.
