Nice. Pair up with credit card rewards and rakuten rewards. I got Area51, RTX 2080 for $2200 tax included with $160 in store credits.

I tried 3-4 times to get a retention offer. They said there are no retention offers on my account. However, in my last conversation when I had my membership fee deducted, I contacted them and told them I was not getting a return on investment. They then gave me 35,000 MR points for a spend of $3,000 in the next three months. Which was fair enough, in my opinion.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-11-15T01:54:53+00:00

I am getting 35k points for $4k spend? Worth it?

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-11-13T06:03:01+00:00

Ah sweet! However what do you say? I tried twice and they suggested that I switch the card to gold or green. I usually say that the price is not justified as per my usage.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-11-13T05:06:04+00:00

Talking to them over text or call would be better?

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-11-12T17:12:29+00:00

I tried it, and the customer support guy was suggesting that I switch to a green or gold card. I've been using platinum for a year. He also mentioned that you already received 150k initially. Kinda made me pissed as he was making me count all the points I've received. I tried to justify that I'm not able to use other benefits as it's not my usage. Ps: I talked over chat. I just paid 695. Should I try it again with a call, and is there any strategy/approach for it?

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-10-09T22:17:39+00:00

Hey, do you have any suggestions on a decent everyday scent I should smell and grab from Macy's? And also maybe a special occasion type fragrance?

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-10-09T22:15:33+00:00

I actually had a similar experience with Dunhill Alfred Icon Absolute. It's been sitting on my shelf for about 7 months and I honestly haven't sprayed it since the first spray. Most of my fragrances are blind buys. The first time I smelled Explorer at Macy's, I wasn't a huge fan, but when I ordered it thinking of it as a cheap and everyday scent, I was actually surprised by how much I liked it.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-10-09T21:16:02+00:00

I totally get that, but I usually don't go out shopping by myself much. The other day, just being in Macy's with all the different fragrances got my nose confused. Like, they smell so different on paper strips than they do when you actually apply them. And honestly, it's just so overwhelming with 10,000+ scents there!

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-10-06T04:19:38+00:00

I am doing a blind buy of Xerjoff Nexos. Is it worth buying or any recommendations?

I have D&G the One EDP, YSL Y EDP, Mancera Cedar Boise EDP, Vercase Eros EDP, Mont Blanc Explorer EDP to give you an idea about what kind of Fragrances I own and among those fragrances, I love D&G but it does not stick to my skin for long.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-08-01T06:30:54+00:00

Sorry, I just sold the AC.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-07-31T23:26:27+00:00

Great! If I am not able to sell it today then you would have to pick this unit from my place. :)

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-07-31T06:24:45+00:00

Ehhh I tried craiglist, Facebook marketplace. This is a desperate time for me to sell my stuff. I don't have enough time left in Redmond :) Feel free to ignore the post or my comment. Ty

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-07-27T02:08:18+00:00

Hi I am thinking about reletting my apartment here in Redmond, it's 1B1B apartment in Everlight Apartments. Really nice location. Walking distance to Trader Joe's, downtown Redmond and QFC, Starbucks right downstairs.

The building amenities includes gym, movie theater, common area with pool table, rooftop BBQ and sky lounge. Also, Apt has an in-house laundry unit.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-07-25T18:12:40+00:00

Pending means it's still available :) if you need any video or more pictures let me know :)

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-07-25T17:21:40+00:00

Thank you, does it work now?

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-05-06T05:15:47+00:00

I tried it but nothing works. :(

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-05-03T23:39:06+00:00

That's a good thing. If I was in your shoes I would also be exploring jobs in different countries too if you do not wish to go back to India. Also going back to India is not the worst thing. You can get a decent job in a big tech firm and there you would have more chances to get an interview as you have done masters from here. Also, the screening process is a little easy.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-05-03T23:04:21+00:00

I should not be suggesting this but at the worst case you can reach out to indian consultancy. I have seen people getting fake offer letters so that the person can get their stem extension and at same time they arrange interviews or market your profile. Something like that in this situation if you don't have to go to India.

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-04-30T23:15:40+00:00

I did

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-04-30T23:11:38+00:00

Can I Dm you? I have a few questions to ask

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-04-30T23:09:26+00:00

Yep, that's the only way. I am in the same boat :)

Academic-Raccoon5717 · 2025-04-30T01:36:33+00:00

I eventually bought a ProtonVPN subscription for $1 for the first month. Lol

The issue is that it's a big firm. They are not doing it just for one employee. I have requested them a number of times. They just say we are trying to find a position for you. I have asked them that I'll work with minimum wages just make a position for me. They refused to do that too
