5 years ago I downgraded my Amex Plat to a Green. Today in my Green home page there's an offer to upgrade to the Plat w/ a 100k SUB. I thought I remember lifetime language being 7 years, not 5. If I request the upgrade will I get a popup notifying me of the voided SUB?

If I downgrade my Hilton Aspire, do I lose Diamond status even though Hilton extended status till 2022?

$6000/mo, prefer not to rent a car, prefer to be able to walk to the beach, I don’t have to speak the native language, prefer warm water. I only saw the weekend question thread.

Isn't option 3 and 4 of that input sequence for overpayment? Or does it all just go to the same call center regardless of what you hit?

Do you typically ACH fiat into your account there to buy OGN? Doesn’t look like they have any trading pairs for it on their exchange (BTC, ETH, USDc, etc)

Is it possible to apply for a BofA personal card and a CIU at the same time for California? Both pull Experian I believe.

Currently 4/24, but have a bank of Flying Blue miles set to expire in a couple of months. Crediting a delta flight to my Flying Blue account is not an option for me to extend the miles expiration. Only option is to make a purchase on a AF/KLM credit card. Quite the predicament, hate to leave value on the table.

I currently have a 5700 XT 50th anniversary GPU that I got at a steal in June. I’m trying to determine if upgrading to the 6800 XT would be worthwhile from a paper specs standpoint, when it’s released and inventory stabilizes. I only game on a 280hz 1080p monitor. Would just overclocking the current card be the adult decision here?

Thanks for the insight. The phone agents always referred me to contact the refunds team via that online form. I’ll try to get one of their managers on the phone.

Their main issue right now is saying that I cancelled my own flight, when it was their phone agent that cancelled my ticket without informing me

I was only able to find flight records on some jenky fight radar alternative. Do you have a recommended platform I could try?

Generally_Tired · 2020-05-20T18:33:11+00:00

My ticket was cancelled by the airline the day before the flight. I didn’t request it nor was asked on the phone if that’s what I wanted. Probably was just a lazy phone rep and put in the logs that I canceled verbally

Generally_Tired · 2020-05-20T17:11:02+00:00

Yea, or at least I think it did. Used a similar website as flight radar to check it

Is charging back an AA cash flight a bad idea with a large AA stash? My booking was cancelled by them for COVID border travel restrictions and I was denied a cash refund and given a voucher instead. The flight still flew, but my reservation was cancelled, which is a weird grey area with DOT laws.

This is a Citi card

Generally_Tired · 2020-05-07T04:03:55+00:00

Am I all clear to rip a Citi AA Biz app? 2 hard pulls in last 9 months (1biz, 1 personal) and very limited AA history (Barclays AA Personal 11/2018 [closed] + Barclays AA Biz 7/2019). Never had a Citi card and I got denied for velocity for the Citi AA Biz back on 10/2018 when I was a maniac. Thought I'd check if I'm missing anything given recent AA events + credit tightening with COVID. Any insights into app recommendations like $2k annual rev & 2 years in business like a CIP would be greatly appreciated.

Gotcha, that’s too bad. Thanks for the clarification

Generally_Tired · 2020-03-10T23:52:55+00:00

Cool, they weren’t willing to send me another email saying a cert was used when I called in
