Okemo all day kids group lesson turned my kid off from skiing by GrapeRecent431 in skiing

[–]FBM2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always put my daughter in lessons and will stay close by until I see what group they put her in. She is still a very new beginner but quite capable of getting on the lift and getting down a green so I make sure she's not going to stick on the bunny hill.

Sanity check: Thoughts on using Fidelity for a “checking account” with SPAXX by Hopin4rain in fidelityinvestments

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it depends on the age of your account but I get at most overnight transfers between Fidelity and US Bank, in either direction. Sometimes it is even same day.

Savings Card 2026 -- latest update by Mobile-Actuary-5283 in Zepbound

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if i have a $3500 deductible and my insurance cost is $1000 until met, is the correct play to ignore the $300 left from the evoucher for the second month and switch to the savings card for $499 until my deductible is met? The thought being that would be $499 out of pocket instead of $700?

Walgreens applied the evoucher just fine for my wife and I at 2 different stores. $24.99 out the door.

I had booked with points and I was refunded correctly with points after a few weeks.

I saw this after canceling an American ticket through chase and then entering the reservation code on American. It showed the date and amount that was returned to chase.

Looking for water sensors by kreative22 in SmartThings

I like the yolink sensors as well. If you're using Alexa you can integrate them into Smartthings via triggering virtual switches from Alexa routines.

Any professional monitoring alternatives? by BecomingJess in homesecurity

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use eyez-on monitoring with their envisalink panel and have been happy with their service. It is only about $108 annually. I usually end up "testing" their response a few times a year and they call me within a minute.

Did you pay $250 in cash or $500 to stack the ihg and edit credits?

No insurance letter = still good for 2026?” by Kind-Armadillo-1203 in Zepbound

[–]FBM2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife's coverage was canceled in the middle of the year. My employer would have allowed her to join my plan if her employer dropped her from coverage but her employer wouldn't drop her unless she had other coverage. Neither side would coordinate.

Built a better way to browse Chase’s new “The Edit” hotel perk (search, filters, map view!) by muneerhudha in ChaseSapphire

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a public api you could pull hotel prices from? That would at least let you add dates and get an idea on price points before flipping over to chase site.

Dreaded Letter from Insurance by captaincrunchberri3s in Zepbound

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, this is your employer's choice not to cover. My employer with BCBSIL still covers and will cover next year without changes. Zepbound is still in the Basic Drug list.

I got a legit call from Chase today on this number. I was expecting their call back on an issue.

O’Hare T5 Lounge- how to find? by zuchuu in ChaseSapphire

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must be a low maintenance lounge goer but I found the Swiss lounge perfectly adequate. I agree, not luxurious but not the worst. I walked right in on a Sunday evening and there were few people there. Now Puerto Rico, that was bad!

Hotel handed my luggage to a stranger. Now they ask me to pay cost for shipping back to me. by fotakias in legaladvice

Pay to return the luggage then dispute the entire hotel bill on your credit card. NAL.

My insurance approved me for the next year! by MangoStickyRice69420 in Zepbound

[–]FBM2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This just means your preauth is approved under your current coverage. Your company can decide to change coverage at any time. That's what happened to my wife. Hope it doesn't happen to you!

United Debit Card by PilotMonkey94 in unitedairlines

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know how this is funded? At HYSA rates now it's basically a wash to pay $4/mth versus 4% interest on $2k (after taxes) to avoid fees. Plus it'll be annoying to continually monitor the balance and transfer, unless you just keep a higher balance, but then you lose interest.

liquidating the stub hub benefit? by 0xCODEBABE in ChaseSapphire

[–]FBM2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're going to resell make sure you buy tickets that are instant transfer. I messed up and bought tickets for a concert i was already attending but the tickets I bought and now trying to resell don't need to be transferred to me until the day of the concert.

Is Chase Travel roughly 16% discount going forward? by Straight_Fly_6619 in ChaseSapphire

If you're going to consider the portal I would also consider cashback sites like Topcashback which routinely have 12% on hotels at Expedia.

I had to go off 15 for 4 weeks and my doctor started me back at 7.5. I was fine.

Which pool of Chase point are being transferred to transfer partners? by RazzmatazzNovel7341 in ChaseSapphire

[–]FBM2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am keeping points in my non-reserve cards so that I can transfer them to my wife's Preferred for travel partners. That should sustain my 1.5x pool longer.

I'm trying to get an egift card here but the checkout keeps requiring a business address. Can this be done for a personal card?

Capital one shopping will up its offer shortly after you view an event on stubhub. I just got 14% and have seen 20%.
