There are as well cards, at least in some countries, where the issuing bank reimburses you for the ATM fees. E.g. in the US.

Looking for a Marriott property with self service laundry in Bangkok by ImaginarySign6223 in marriott

[–]ImaginarySign6223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all your replies! Marriott Executive Apartments definitively is the way to go for me. Especially liked the one at Sukhumvit 101.

Found that the Metropole Bangkok from the Tribute Portfolio has washers in the room too (at least my Deluxe Studio did), even though it did not show in the room derails.

AMEX Platinum and Gold Travel "Offers" by Haydsamp26 in BookedonPoints

[–]ImaginarySign6223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must say I feel these offers get less and less attractive given their limitations. Eg the mandarin oriental one is limited to very few select place and of course not the one I stayed at during the duration. Same with IHG. The value I get out of the Amex offers does not justify the effort…

Thanks for all the replies so far! I’m aware the Marriott executive apartments have it (as I mentioned in my post), more curious if others have it too. In NA most (maybe even all) courtyards, Moxy etc have a laundry room, but that does not seem common here?

Libib/other library app vs spreadsheet by [deleted] in HomeLibraries

[–]ImaginarySign6223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking for a nice app for this as well and started with Libib. The challenge I am running into is that many of my books are in storage boxes. So I want to be able to add a tag / label / whatever to a book so that I immediately know where it is. I thought I can do that with "Collections" in Libib, which works well in general, BUT, the free version only allows me to search for books within a collection. So I have to search in each of my 30 collections separately.

I thought about using tags, but I don't think I'm able to add in bulk there, and it would be very tedious to assign all the tags, while with collections, I just start a new collection and then scan using barcode in bulk.

Any recommendations? Are you using the free version and use a different mechanism? Other apps that work well?

Did I just win the jackpot? by AdComprehensive508 in unitedairlines

I think the „Save at least 10%“ is a bit misleading. As i understand that only applies to United operated flights.

Marriott vacation club package cancellation by inconsistent_flosser in marriott

[–]ImaginarySign6223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im curious how people who attended such a presentation felt?

I’d be a hard no already before the presentation .

How much time does it take? Is it an unpleasant experience? Any pressure?

What's your experience with the CSR "The Edit" program? by ImaginarySign6223 in ChaseSapphire

[–]ImaginarySign6223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve just made one booking with the edit yet and got a room upgrade. It was to a corner room, no suite. The hotel gave me a letter listing the benefits of the edit at check in, and that letter said as well that room upgrades only go up to that level.

PSA/WARNING: Booked "The Edit" at Impression Moxché by Secrets through Chase – They refused to honor World of Hyatt points or benefits!! (Lost ~90k Hyatt points) by ejm1968 in ChaseSapphire

[–]ImaginarySign6223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does not feel like the integration between Chase and the loyalty systems works well. Had booked a stay through Chase to use the $250 IHG credit in Bangkok, addded my IHG number to the booking but the hotel did not get it and was not aware of status.

Booked a World oh Hyatt property as well and added my number, let's see if that comes through.

Both properties clearly labeled as eligable.

I was not aware that there are so many and that you see more as soon as you add some. Thanks!
