    Defensa al Consumidor - using CABA service after trying with national?

Do you know if I can file a second complaint with the CABA service for my issue, having already filed...

    Defensa al Consumidor - using CABA service after trying with national?

    I filed a complaint throught the national Defensa al Consumidor and it seems like they're taking a while to proceed. (Probably because of job cuts, IDK.) I'd like to file a second complaint through the city Defensa al Consumidor. Am I able to do that or will they see that I've already tried...

    Personal 5G service

    I just tried it in Recoleta near the cemetery. Very fast indeed. Supposedly it is only available in a couple neighborhoods, but I think even within the specified neighborhoods coverage is scarce. I couldn't pick it up even a few blocks away from the cemetery.

    Personal Internet

    My office has had some issues with Internet and TV. Internet running a little slow at times with the occasional outage; the TV out for several days. Not sure if there's any connection with the storm. At home I've had no issues.

    Is there a sugar-free Gatorade equivalent? Preferrably in powder form

    Looking for something like G2 in the USA, especially in powder form so I can mix it into my waterbottle. I only ever see full sugar Gatorade and Powerade and quickly browsing Mercado Libre I don't find anything else. Suero I guess is an option, but I think of that more like Pedialyte than for...

    Unregistered SUBE cards face higher transportation costs

    I tried going to that one 2x. It's like a little table near an escalator and it was empty both times I went even though I had come during their normal posted operating hours. To anyone reading this, I'd go to the one in Retiro as it's like a whole little office unto itself.
