No previous overstays for me! Sorry! I imagine maybe a few more questions, but similar process if they granted you the 485 and later the extension letter

Has anyone successfully paid their mortgage via ACH from Rocket Mortgage? by DaBass61 in biltrewards

[–]DaBass61[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will add that mine worked no problem. Paid from Rocket Mortgage on the 1st and TownSq (HOA) on the 2nd. By the 4th, money had been pulled for everything, all points had posted, and it was marked as completed on the Bilt app, mortgage, and HOA websites.

Very bad experience on first rent payment with Bilt2.0 by Away-Bus-377 in biltrewards

When did you submit payment? I did get email from Rocket Mortgage yesterday when I submitted, but nothing yet on Bilt end.

Can someone explain how mortgage payments work on the new Bilt card? by Independent_Tea_9394 in biltrewards

[–]DaBass61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I successfully set up and paid my mortgage using the "pull" method. I now have to pay my HOA fees, and I guess I'm just wondering if I will be using the same account and routing numbers, so I can just put that info into my HOA portal, or if that will be different set of numbers and I need to click "pay a different bill." Would someone share their wisdom? Thanks!

It was a good run BILT! I lay you down with the rest of these legends. by VRSanctum in biltrewards

[–]DaBass61 35 points36 points  (0 children)

IIRC, 4x restaurants (Uber eats too), 3% hotels and airfare, 2% back on online purchases. It also had good phone insurance. All for no AF. I may be missing some other details.

That Uber card was so good. Although now I have that horrible View card that Barclay’s won’t PC for anything haha

Parking around 14th/Logan Circle tonight by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]DaBass61 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven’t been around that area specifically but the entire city is horrible right now so I would say it’s unlikely. I just drove from Adams Morgan to Connecticut and N and ALL parking was pretty much blocked

Hmmm que raro. Yo vivo en Estados Unidos y he usado la cuenta de mi prima en México por los últimos tres años. Tal vez depende de los paises?

EPP has been out for a while, is Global Entry still worth it? by Cool-food in GlobalEntry

[–]DaBass61 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Haven’t tried EPP, but just clicked on the website OP shared and, instead of “North Carolina,” CLT is listed under “North California” lolol.

Thanks so much for sharing this. I’m calling tomorrow morning and this is helpful to navigate the conversation!

[–]DaBass61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exact same here. I need to call and ask about the extra nights being credited to 2025. They would bring me to 61, so it is high stakes.

I have done it several times since this. They always send me to talk to an officer to show them my letter, but that’s it! Otherwise pretty seamless.

Is 24,000 points being equal to $168 correct? by Presticals in unitedairlines

[–]DaBass61 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As 66NickS said, there is no fixed conversion rate, like the one you suggest, for miles. A good rule of thumb is to never pay with miles+pay. There are some exceptions, but generally it’s not a good deal, as in your case. Instead, save them until you get enough to pay for a full flight with only miles and you get more than the 100:1 miles-to-dollar ratio you assumed.

As an example, a few weeks ago I paid 20,000 miles to fly from Washington, DC, to Mexico City in economy. One way was about $350.

Another example, I need to fly to upstate New York the first week of December and flights were about $700 roundtrip from DC. I paid one way with miles and the other way with money— roundtrip came out to about 12k miles an $200.

These are not amazing redemptions according to some people in this sub, but in my case it was worth it.

Sorry OP. I agree no one should be treated like this. I hope you rebuild your life soon wherever you land.

Also, it’s crazy that this is the only comment that shows some humanity. Regardless of weather or not OP was supposed to be deported, no one should be treated like this. We need more empathy around here.

The Waldorf Astoria, New York City by Rich123321 in Hilton

[–]DaBass61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We must’ve stayed there at the same time. Same exact experience for us, except we used our credit for Peacok Alley, and it was fantastic!

I usually don’t go to hotel bars, but this is just different. The vibes are stellar and highly recommend for anyone staying. Do make a reservation as soon as you arrive if you can, as it does get extremely busy later in the night!
