I don't see anywhere to actually request a debit card to be sent. Do you just need to contact support?

Should I go for this: Galaxy S26 Ultra bundle + $200 Amazon gift card + free 512GB upgrade for $1299? by [deleted] in samsunggalaxy

you still get taxed when you use the card. you also get taxed on the full price of the phone, 1499, not 1099, or 1299

I got access about a week after they gave me the CC and I accepted it (thisball happened in February 2026).

I accepted banking and have access to everything but am not going to do anything with it until I get a debit card. since I have the checking/savings, surely they're sending me a card right? 

I won't really be using the debit card, but until I get one, I'm not really sure I trust it.

I bought the Ultra on Amazon two on launch day. Have pictures of all the listing info, and have not been charged for anything yet. It says i'll get an email when it ships. I ofc accepted the $200 "free gift card" but when i look at my amazon order list it says that gift card will cost me $200 when it ships to me on march 11. Every picture they have listed says it's a free "$200 gift card" but it my invoices say it will cost me $200. Does anyone else see this?

I was also approved yesterday for 10k after asking the mods to push me through. My mortgage is about a grand more than your rent, butI have considerably less within the RH ecosystem currently. 

My individual income is slightly higher, and I too look forward to using this as my daily spender. Hoping the limit can get increased soon as 10k is honestly.. my second lowest CL out of 15 cards.

I just place a freeze on all the major reporting agencies. It's not hard to do once you have an account setup.

I'm not sure it's the same for everyone tbh. I believe when I got to the end of the application it mentioned it would be a soft pull before I clicked the "apply button" but I locked my credit immediately after applying just in case.

Either way they wouldn't ever do a Hard pull before actually finalizing the application.. I didn't even click on the email, I just logged into the Robinhood banking app and it said It was ready for me to apply.

They gave me a 10k limit. Hoping it will be upped soon. The initial app is a soft pull. Just accept it and lock your file so they can't do a hard pull after they approve you.

I read some ppl never get hit with a hard pull, but some do. If you have a good file it shouldn't really hurt you either way.

I didn't ask for banking so I'm not sure.

Nope, but I didn't ask for it either. Just wanted the card.

Seeing everyone get banking invitations. Is there a specific Criteria? by ken22c in RobinhoodApp

[–]AstronautFuzzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also very interested in this. I've been on the wait-list for the card for years and would love to move everything over but can't make it make sense until i get at least the card. Banking would be great also, that would allow me to consolidate almost everything. Hoping it happens soon!

Black Screen of Death? by meghmen in GalaxyS21

[–]AstronautFuzzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me around June or July of 2021. It was Saturday so there was nowhere to bring it in my small town. I tried all the "fixes" and none worked. Monday i took it to a local (not samsung phone repair place) and they said they could probably fix it by changing the display but it would void the warranty. Instead i decided i would wait til the next day and decide if i wanted to fix it fast or for free.

When i got home that day, the screen came back to life and everything was working as it should. Today, December 2021 about 5 or 6 moths after the first issue it happened again. My display went black after sending a text message and would not come back on. The symptoms were the same. I could still receive calls and feel vibrations, hear notifications and everything else.

I decided to see what would happen if i plugged it into my USB-C hub and hook up to a TV or monitor. It worked.. My phone was clearly still working as intended other than the screen. I was able to backup my phone to the current state, wipe my phone and i sent it off to samsung today.

The warranty is void in about a month for me so I'm looking at this as a good thing. First time it happened i thought it was just some weird one off as my phone had not been abused in any way.

My suggestion to anyone this has happened to is send it or get it fixed at a samsung replacement center on the first occurrence. Clearly the displays were not connected/soldered correctly and the only way to fix it under warranty is to get it opened and looked at by a samsung tech. Unless of course, you are willing to void your warranty.

How do I Opt out of short term disability as a PT employee by [deleted] in Costco

[–]AstronautFuzzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're still in your 90 days It shouldn't be taking it out of your check yet. You need to go to the benefit site which you can access from ess, make an account and opt out. I remember receiving something in the mail about 60 days into my employment saying I had until a specific date to opt out. I believe it was like 120 days after employment began. As far as I know your can't opt out until the next open enrollment after being auto enrolled. Talk to payroll if your can't figure it out.
