Law / Millennium Bank Complaint (their entire functional website is in Polish!) [15]

The thing is that once I log on with my Millekod, I couldn't find a link for English. There is before I log in but then I get nothing. I looked everywhere and I'm VERY computer literate and capable. Yes, I was feeling a bit like an idiot but after I clicked on everything available I found a 'profile' page where I could finally choose English. It's just not exactly intuitive considering that I log in from English.

Thanks for your help.

Law / Millennium Bank Complaint (their entire functional website is in Polish!) [15]

I really, really want to like Millennium Bank but they are making it so hard! They have this beautiful website in English and it looked like a good choice for an online bank. But noooooo... Once you sign up, the entire functional website is in Polish!!! I can't understand hardly anything and it is so difficult to use Google translate to figure it out! I'm trying hard to learn Polish but I really, really, really thought this would be one place I wouldn't have to struggle so much. AS IF.

Law / Signing a contract from Poland Telecommunication (TP) I didn't understand [20]

I'm so dumb... a courier showed up with a contract "aneks" for me to sign from TP. He assured me in my broken English that it didn't change my current contract but only gave me a special rate. Now I know I renewed my contract starting October 1, which is definitely what I did not want. I'm frustrated at myself for reacting that way and feeling like I had to sign right then and there because of the courier and I'm made at TP for putting me in that position. Now I have so much more empathy for all the Spanish speakers in the States.

Now I am left wondering if I have any legal recourse or way to get out of this contract. Thoughts?

Language / Bookstore in Warsaw - Polish in 4 weeks LEVEL 2 [19]

Use Rosetta Stone....trust me works like a charm.

I have to second this recommendation. It is fabulous. I've been able to wow a lot of Poles with what I learned with Rosetta Stone. It won't get you the nitty-gritty of the case grammar but it will get you quite far.

Food / Organic Produce in Polish malls? [7]

Is there anywhere to get organic produce besides the Organic Farma Zdrowia stores in the malls? Are there any vendors in the markets?
