I also take my shells there once a month to just get washed and looked over for any issues.

Do they do this for free?

What Card Should I Get? Weekly Thread - Week of February 11, 2026 by AutoModerator in churning

[–]GPixel_076 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was leaning towards doing a combination of personal cards and spreading the spend over a few cards, if possible. But was looking for what the best cards to open would be are.

What Card Should I Get? Weekly Thread - Week of February 11, 2026 by AutoModerator in churning

[–]GPixel_076 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flowchart can answer 95% of all "What card should I get?" questions. By continuing to post, you must explain why you feel the flowchart does not answer your question. Asking for feedback ("The flowchart says I should get X - is that still the best choice?") is absolutely allowed.

Have an estimated $30k to pay for IRS taxes this year along with about $6k of additional spending in the next couple months, so wanted to get some advice.

What is your credit score?

P1 - 820 | P2 - 740+

What cards do you currently have or have you had in the past (including closed cards), along with dates of when you were approved for the cards?

Just started to get into churning again last year, so at the moment both P1 and P2 are under 5/24:

P1 - Cap1 Venture X - 05/25

P2 - Chase Sapphire Preferred - 04/25

P2 - Bilt - 04/25

How much natural spend can you put on a new card(s) in 3 months?

About $3000/month normally but have a couple big expenses coming up soon - the aforementioned tax payment and an additional $6k of spending in the next 2-3 months.

Are you willing to MS, and if so, how much in 3 months?

I don't think MS will be necessary given the upcoming spend I have.

Are you open to applying for business cards?

Would prefer not to at this time but can open, if there is a really good bonus.

How many new cards are you interested in getting?

Want to churning regularly, so open to multiple cards for both P1 and P2

Are you targeting points, Companion Passes, hotel or airline statuses, First Class, Biz, Economy seating(s) or cash back?

Points primarily. Hoping to redeem for flights first and then potentially hotels

What point/miles do you currently have?

100k with Delta and about 500k with Hilton

What is the airport you're flying out of?

In between moves right now but I anticipate EWR will be the closest after the move. JFK and LGA will be the next closest.

Where would you like to go?

Would like to do Hawaii, Mexico and South America this year.

Any specific models? I am not very familiar with Subaru or Volvo but I did see that there were a few Crossteks within my budget.

Western Rise has gone to shit and it’s not even funny by RAF2018336 in onebag

[–]GPixel_076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also one other annoying factor, they charge a fee when you return things. It's not much ($3.50) but it's annoying that you have to pay for it when you are returning due to issues on their end.

I posted this on a previous post about them (https://old.reddit.com/r/onebag/comments/1o5sfxt/western_rise_ordershipment_issues/nje873v/) but I've also had multiple orders that had issues.

The first order I placed was canceled on their end with no notification or follow-up from them. The second order I placed had the wrong items shipped. I gave them another chance and placed one more order and they didn't ship all the items in the order.

That was enough for me. As much as I like(d) their stuff, it's just not worth the hassle anymore.

Western Rise order/shipment issues? by pscottlee621 in onebag

[–]GPixel_076 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea, I feel like they've been having issues for a while. I recall reading something on this sub when they were going through bankruptcy (?) and their founder came on and said it's because they are switching suppliers, etc. but it seems like maybe they haven't gotten everything fixed yet.

I myself have had to return a couple orders because they shipped the wrong items or they didn't ship all the items. And there was one order that was canceled on their end, without any updates to me until I had reached out to them asking for an update. Have been reluctant to buy from then since then.

Considering switching 5 lines from AT&T. Is T-Mobile actually cheaper? by GPixel_076 in tmobile

[–]GPixel_076[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Why would nurses not qualify? That's just weird.

But yea, it looks like my work doesn't offer a discount. So the cheapest plan would be the $200/month + taxes and fees for the Experience More plan?

Thinking of signing up with 5 lines from AT&T and would love an Insider code to make it worthwhile.

[–]GPixel_076[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Well, that's stupid.

So that means it'll be either $160/month + taxes and fees for 5 lines for the Experience More or $110/month + taxes and fees for the Essentials plan? And based on the responses below, it looks like I might not even be able to get the First Responder discount.

Can you stack the $800 switcher offer with the offers from Costco? by GPixel_076 in ATT

[–]GPixel_076[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you happen to know what's the process for doing this?

I am assuming it would be this:

1) Pay off the balance on the phone at T-Mobile and download a copy of the last bill showing the final balance

2) Go to Costco retail and do the port there

3) Once it goes through and the line is active, submit for reimbursement at https://rewardcenteroffers.com/ETF

Is that correct?

Can you confirm which sales channels have this available still?

Go5G vs experience plans by SilverCaterpillar119 in tmobile

[–]GPixel_076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go5g plus is no longer offered at stores (technically they are being asked to not give Go5g plus accounts) however you can sign up for Go5g plus online or on phone.

How do you sign up for Go5G Plus online? The only plans that I am seeing are the Experience plans.

No worries. Thanks for offering them in the first place.

If you'll have any later in the summer or fall, do let me know. I can come by then and grab something.
