I strongly recommend working with this company; they are very professional. As Kotan Tile, I was happy to work with them

The NEW "clamped-down" versions of Claude users are forced to use today (Anthropic's Claude 4.5 Sonnet and Opus 4.1 — released May–November 2025) — which introduced heavier safety filters to reduce "harmful" outputs and basically killed "Original Claude" has led to widespread complaints of:
• deflections (e.g., refusing creative expansions or long-form writing with "I can't rewrite your work due to authorship concerns")
• constant hallucinations (up to 12–15% in creative tasks per LMSYS Arena and HealthBench tests)
• and token limits that cap chapter-length outputs at ~2,000–4,000 tokens, forcing mid-response cutoffs. 

Benchmarks show Claude 4.5 dropping from 9.2/10 in creative nuance (pre-clamp-down) to 8.2/10 now, with a 20% increase in "refusal rates" for fiction/prose tasks (Zapier, Fello AI 2025 reports). 

Users on Reddit/r/ClaudeAI and TechCrunch call it "muzzled" or "unusable for writers," as it prioritizes "ASL-3 alignment" (safety over utility), making it feel sterile and evasive.

Below is a table comparing this latest version of Claude to Gemini 2.5 Pro, GPT-5 (OpenAI's 2025 flagship), and Grok 4.1 (xAI's latest). 

Data from 2025 sources (LMSYS Arena, SWE-Bench, EQ-Bench, Fello AI, Clarifai, Zapier, Tom's Guide). Focus on creative writing, hallucinations, deflections, and long-form capabilities, since that's your pain point.

THE ALTERNATIVES:
Clamped-down Claude 4.5 is now THE WEAKEST FOR CREATIVE WRITING —high hallucinations, constant deflections, and token caps which make it "unusable" for full chapters. 

It trails in benchmarks (e.g., 8.2/10 creative score vs. 9.1 for Gemini), with safety filters prioritizing "refusals" over utility (20% increase in error rates for prose, per Clarifai).

CLOSEST REPLACEMENT TO "ORIGINAL PRE-CLAMPING CLAUDE": 
• Gemini 2.5 Pro edges out as the best "old Claude" stand-in (90% match for nuance), with low hallucinations and massive context for chapters. 

• GPT-5 is a close second for balanced creativity; 

• Grok 4.1 for "alive" emotional depth. 

Test Gemini free—prompt it "in the style of Claude Opus 4: subtle, layered prose without deflections.

Square Payments Has Been a Major Setback for My Business

After four months of using Square without issues, everything suddenly went downhill. Square shut down my account out of nowhere and then also shut down a second business account I had with them. No warning, no explanation that made sense, and absolutely no regard for how much this would disrupt my operations.

This wasn’t just an inconvenience — it cost me time, energy, and real money. One of my customers was even charged $360 in processing fees during a period when I had an active free-processing credit. When I brought it up, Square didn’t take responsibility and didn’t fix it. They consistently failed to honour their own terms and constantly contradicted themselves.

The customer service experience made everything even worse. Every interaction felt like dealing with support reps who had little understanding of Canadian business practices or the issues I was actually facing. Instead of helping, they read off scripts, dismissed my concerns, and closed inquiries without proper resolution. There was never any real support, empathy, or accountability.

Having both of my accounts shut down without valid reason caused major operational delays, unexpected expenses, and hours of wasted back-and-forth. If you rely on payment processing to keep your business running smoothly, think twice. Square ended up costing me far more than they ever provided.

Save yourself the frustration and go with any other payment processor. Square consistently disappoints and has proven to be unreliable when it matters most.

They managed to restore my wallet funds when I thought everything was lost. Quick response and very friendly support. Absolutely satisfied.

I think sincerely it is a thief company with all his members including Mundial Casino !  If Trust Pilot was having lower less than one star I will put less ! Casino Rewards and members are probably the same company in the same office ! Don’t trust these companies and I have leave the situation of today several times . When we chat always the same answer perhaps ROBOTS they are using . 
Never they put the name of big winners and not trustable because they pay I think big price not often ! 
 My experience is the truth 100% 
Good reflexion

An app that you can trust, it's all that matters.

Total scam. Ordered the toaster, its 4months and still nothing received. They don't reply to emails and my money is gone. Please don't purchase anything from this company.
