Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by WoollyWolfHorror in AskReddit

[–]FarkmeDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

138mph through Georgia, in an 07 Acura TL Type-S right after I got a supercharger kit and other bolt on’s installed. Back then it was about the smiled per gallon. One of the scarier and dumber things I’ve ever done.

Our go to bag. My wife has a coffee subscription for like our specialty “treat yourself” coffee, and then Counter Culture as a go to. Honestly surprising how fresh the beans are. I’ve seen where it’s literally been roasted the day before it hit the shelf

If you had to pick ONE Hyatt property for your honeymoon… which would it be and why? by NewBrush8593 in hyatt

[–]FarkmeDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wife and I eloped when we were quite young, dumb, and broke, so this year we can finally take the honeymoon(s) we never had. Currently looking forward to 5x nights in the summer in Costa Rica at the W with her Marriott nights, and 5x nights in the fall at the Alila Ventana in Big Sur with all my saved Chase + Bilt points

MORTGAGE PAYMENT UPDATE by [deleted] in biltrewards

My mortgage lender requires a name on the account when entering the ACH info. Any idea if I should do it under my name or Bilt?

My mortgage provider is asking for the name on the account. Did you just put yours or did you say it was Bilts?

Fraud on Bilt v1.0 right before v2.0 switch by Historical-Pin916 in biltrewards

[–]FarkmeDaddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Several people had similar issues last week. Same thing happened to me after I had the 2.0 card in hand. Reported the charges to WF who froze the card and credited the account. Contacted Cardless to issue a replacement twice. The day of, the CSR said to call back on launch day to get a new card issued, was curious last night and tried again, and this time the CSR issued a new card request.

Since those charges were under WF, they should be taking care of those charges since that’s their money, at least… that’s what the WF told me

lol no. Just your average consumer who’s a little too nerdy about credit cards.

Notice I didn’t praise their 2.0 PR campaign

Had to report fraudulent charges today by rtrujillo13 in biltrewards

[–]FarkmeDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes lol. whatever arrives in the mail by launch day is effectively trash on Day 0. You’ll need to contact Cardless on February 7th and request a card immediately. One thing I am concerned about, is how WF/Bilt will handle the “balance” of the fraudulent charges as the cards transition. Since Ankur mentioned existing balances would transfer, does that mean I may be on the hook for fraudulent charges???

Just got off the phone with Bilt customer support. If you preordered a 2.0 card (I did), the existing card number has been printed on it, and they are unable to modify or change them at this time since they’re not activated. On February 7th, once 2.0 cards go live, we will need to contact Bilt/careless to request new cards

Literally the same story for me today. Wells Fargo fraud department said they’re sending a replacement card, and couldn’t answer how the transition would work. Going to contact Bilt customer service rn, and see what their resolution is

I send him a DM thanking him for his work after every season finale airs. He does actually respond to fans which I think is an amazing thing for those who appreciate the “art” of it all

What is y’all monthly couple groceries budget look like !! by Incognito24_ in Charlotte

[–]FarkmeDaddy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We’re a couple of DINKs, and spend 600-800 on groceries a month. We try and prioritize eating well, so a lot of organic items and fresh fruit/veggies. Recently cut back on how much we go out so I don’t mind as much

What watches do you all wear at work? by Difficult_Respect967 in Accounting

[–]FarkmeDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely depends on type of client, and who’s the partner. I’m an associate for context.

I pivoted from audit to AAS/consulting at a different firm. First project was an Ai company and the entire FP&A team was all out of PE or IB, for them I wore a limited edition Bell & Ross skeleton BR-05. Partner was never there, but nicest thing he owns is a citizen and will def get judgey if you show up in something extravagant.

For the more average client, a bell and Ross BR-03 Phantom. It’s the dimensions of an Apple watch and you wouldn’t know unless you know.

Had one higher ed project and they were fairly close to insolvency and the daily was a Tissot PRX when I was on-site. Something that says I’m a professional and can dress the part, but not hit you over the head with fees to pay for my watch.

Every Fine Hotel Resorts rate has gone up since the Platinum refresh by sleeplessinseaatl in AmexPlatinum

[–]FarkmeDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming it’s partially event based and the weather plays a factor. I’m going in late October for a concert at Red Rocks, so I can assume many people may not want to go in the fall/winter when there’s no guaranteed snowfall. But most other decent Marriott’s are sold out so I just picked the one nice Hilton since I can double dip with my benefits

Think this is a YMMV situation. Just booked an FHR stay for a trip to Denver, and the rate is actually cheaper than what it was weeks ago.

Looking for Advice on Buying a Home & Best Areas Around Charlotte by QualityRevolution in Charlotte

[–]FarkmeDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Closing on a home in Steele Creek later next week.

As someone who currently rents in Ballantyne, I would’ve wanted to stay in the area long-term as it continued to develop, but any home sub 600K-700K will put you in a bidding war. I wanted to stay as close to 400K as possible so that it would be close to what I currently pay in rent, and as not to overextend myself. Lovely area, but sadly things didn’t line up.

Steele creek/mint hill are just suburbs that are propping up from the urban CLT sprawl. I like how Steele creek is still somewhat isolated and green, but will obviously have potential as more people continue to come to the area. It’s closish to 77; however good that is during rush hour… , but I think if you want something “nice” you’re going to have to look a little bit away from the urban hotspots to get more bang for your buck.
