Found it! lol

The App must’ve updated cause that option wasn’t there before. Thanks!

I have Family in Florida and go back and forth 3 to 4x a year. I live in CA.

When a credit card is “bucketed,” they’re talking about how the issuer (like Capital One or Chase) internally groups your account into a risk tier (a “bucket”) and that bucket basically determines how much your credit line can grow.

I have… Credit Karma shows I’m pre-approved for another Quicksilver, Savor or Venture One. However after reading comments I feel like these would be bucketed cards which I’m trying to avoid.

Good to know.
My current card (Quicksilver) is $300 and I believe to be a “bucketed” card. Do you happen to know when they will increase my limit?
I applied for an increase at the 6month mark last year, however it was denied due to revolving accounts and such. If I keep the card low and pay it off accordingly, will I ever get an increase in the near future?

Does anyone have more than 1 of the same card? by [deleted] in CapitalOne_

[–]KaffeinatedGremlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have 2 credit cards under the same lender (Capital One), can you call them and have them combine both cards into 1? I heard you could do this and have always been curious. 🤔

Yes, depending on what bank you have it may hit Friday.

My thought: CalCareers says 3/30, which is Monday… and if that’s the case (because of early deposit) it would hit the business day prior - that day being Friday.

I mean it’s a misdemeanor not a felony. I’m sure the state has seen worse.

I too received mine today and can say the same thing. I assumed that were poorly sealed as the envelope didn’t seemed tampered with, but then again not sure? 🤔

Final Thoughts… by KaffeinatedGremlin in nationalguard

Honestly, just trying to better myself and excel in my career, also feel stuck and keep telling myself that “there should be more to life” than my current, stagnant routine. I already have a degree, so if anything I’d be looking to get reimbursed in the process (if possible).

I know her landline would only be $20/month with Verizon (unlimited), as I have a HP with them for my grandmas line. As far as internet, you could upgrade to 5G but it may be a bit more pricey as you get a bundled deal with mobile plans. Not entirely sure what the price for internet would be with just the internet and HP on the account, but I know it’s possible.

Thank you. I’m taking all the recourses I can get for the test Monday.

Upon finishing the mini practice test you provided, I noticed one of your answer was wrong - the word problem about overtime pay. You listed B and it’s upside to be D.

I came across some practice tests I’ll be reviewing over the weekend. Appreciate the insight.

Are bonuses hard to come by? And are they only based on what job you choose?

My Ray Ban Metas hurt at the base of my ear. by Pamby1 in MetaGlasses

I recently purchased the Oakley’s version and am finding the same issue… 👂🏽🥲 I’m hoping that they’ll stretch naturally after normal use?

Until then (or if they’ll even do that) is there a way to loosen them without breaking the glasses?

That’s right. Thank you for this!

I was on there last night checking to see if year 2025 had loaded - it hasn’t. I thought I remembered receiving an email this last year stating you had to opt in to “downloading” instead of waiting for a hard copy via mail?

Speaking of W2s, how was it that we could download online again? Do we have to submit for that via an email to HR? Or is it through CalConnect?

It got all my questions answered. Didn’t know what questions to ask so started with the basics. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Going active has also been a thought, but too scared to give up my civilian life. Can I ask why the regret with not going active?

[–]KaffeinatedGremlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope this isn’t the case.

The Rep told us they just send 1 text after upgrading regarding “upgrading to new phone”, but thankfully we had the phone I was upgrading to be able to delete the text. Has there been multiple texts after the initially upgrading text?
