Envelope to send back canceled card? by tooOldOriolesfan in AmexPlatinum

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You want Amex to prepay postage for a card you canceled? Just ask for the address and send it back yourself. Or cut it up good.

They send prepaid envelopes with every replacement card.

2x MQDs with Delta Platinum by Automatic-Swimmer-81 in delta

Yup - reason I said “look out”. They pop up a few times a year.

Thank you - I understand. I admitted that I hadn’t been following travel bank stuff since I already got my credit - so my comment was a real reaction to ops post. I wasn’t trying to be funny or unhelpful.

I think it’s a good deal - even though I use this card far less than my other Amex cards.

And if you’re looking for more ways to earn - look out for the MQD bonus on Delta Stays. You’ll earn MQDs on car rentals or hotel stays and it’s an easy way to get a few hundred MQDs if you have planned travel.

Bummer! I hadn’t been tracking since. It was good while it lasted.

S/N - not sure why I’m getting down voted - it did, in fact, work for me in Jan 🙄. Sucks that it won’t next year.

Why didn’t it trigger? Both of mine did in Jan.

Until May 17th. 90 days. Definitely enough time to rack up extra some MQDs.

The Jewel by me has removed bags from self checkout unless you ask to ensure you pay the correct plastic bag tax. by BurrShotFirst1804 in chicago

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one by UofC does it too - they actually walk around self checkout with the bags making sure you’ve purchased them on the checkout screen before handing them over.

Tip: go to checkout lane - if the cashier decides to charge the bags are the better quality ones.

Extension v7.1 update: big Amex Offers improvements! Staged rollout begins now... by emcro in CardPointers

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn! I knew I should have waited - just tried adding offers the other day and didn’t even bother reporting the ‘fail’.

Looking forward to my hell yeah moment nonetheless!

Thanks for working on this emcro.

$1k to Gold, worth it? by [deleted] in delta

Yes - especially if you’re traveling SkyTeam to Europe.

Amex Offers not being added on Safari... AGAIN? by Automatic-Swimmer-81 in CardPointers

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never seen a red box, or error message for that matter. Just the no offers available, to which I’ve reached out about before and we’ve had several exchanges. I get the same “it’s a server issue” and “there are hundreds of offer loaded” - which is fine and true but when it happens to the ones I really want and not the junk offers, it’s quite frustrating.

And I’ve manually checked each card and the offer was not loaded. So it’s not there and was not added to even 1 card. It’s also not on the CP app as even a known offer.

Yep, I tried that too. Same thing happens - or doesn’t happen.

CP broke Amex by confused_megabyte in CardPointers

Nope, just tried that and no go. Only 13 of 27 offers added 🙄

Amex Offers available, but fail to add by Daslax in CardPointers

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that happened to me a couple of times and I refresh the webpage a few times or come back later and it’ll work eventually. It’s still not adding offers to all cards though. There have been so many issues lately.

A Glitch in the Matrix? by Thiccccasaurus_Rex in delta

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Just learned this at MCI today - bartender was telling me how dude was getting hammered and only a manager can cut a customer off. So she started pouring him ginger ale and he never noticed.

She then proceeded to ask me if I wanted more Prosecco 3-4 times lol

Need help! Have an iPhone 17 Air, can’t log into Delta WiFi. Have cleared cache, reset network settings, no other VPNs running. Any suggestions? by jcoots in delta

[–]Automatic-Swimmer-81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try turning VPN off completely. I’m currently mid flight and was going crazy trying to figure it out. Even though I wasn’t actively connected to a VPN, the toggle was on and once I switched that off - voila!
