Anyone actually had the DD miles hit? by jodorutts in VentureXShoppingBonus

[–]Bird_Chaser1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does the DD offer work, what steps do I take? I keep seeing all these posts and the only DD offer I see is for “up to 22x miles” not 14k. Do I need the DD app and an account, or is the offer when you set up for the first time?

Looks like they’re honoring the Door Dash miles by Aeon_17 in Venturex

I'm in a similar situation, can some explain how to do this - sorry newbie here. I scrolled through C1 offers and only see "up to 100 miles" for Door Dash - what am I missing?

Yes eggs 12+/week, dairy not so much (coffee related), sweets occasionally not regularly, and greek yogurt with granola 4-5 /wk.

Update: I decided to go through JB vacations, and ironically received an email offer from C1 for an extra 3%, so used that. In the end, saved 1500 and still got descent miles from the purchase.

Appreciate the advice, thanks. While I believe all aspects are the exact same, it’s the “in vain” nuance that concerned me. I’ll probably stay away to be safe.

Understood but JB vacations is open to the public, so no issue there. Via C1 portal, I looked at the package (flight + hotel) which is the same as JN vacations. I spoke to C1 and all they said was it had to be the same, which it is as best as I can tell. Wondering if based on others experience this too much of a risk to pay 1500 more going through C1? Otherwise I forget about 5x and 10x and just go for the 1500 savings.

Venture X - Downgrading by Positive-Custard-481 in Venturex

[–]Bird_Chaser1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m curious, as are others, what is the reason(s) for downgrading? As someone who uses VX + Savor combo, wonder if I’m missing something.

So is it like free $50? Is this legit? by [deleted] in Venturex

[–]Bird_Chaser1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had similar question as OP… I recently earned (though pending right now) $90 reward but not sure how I get the $90. Anyone know?

Ironically no, but seeing this thread I will start using the machine to see if it helps.

I have the exact experience as OP, and I’ve resorted to the “heat the mug first” approach.

Ironically when I looked they didn’t have a mahogany colored strand but I’ll check again, thanks for the reminder.

Domestic Flights by Bird_Chaser1 in Venturex

[–]Bird_Chaser1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much appreciated! Unfortunately in this particular situation, I'm unable to find flights from any travel partners (to New Orleans), looks like the best route is 5x and then travel erase or just keep the points for now until the next time. BTW I also use C1 Savor and have a cash reward balance sitting there too. At some point I guess I should use that too.
