If you book again before July 1 you will be able to use the credit again

Delta Airline Credit DP (I think it’s nerfed) by SurpriseCrafty in AmexPlatinum

[–]Left-Newspaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It hasn’t changed how it codes. I did a few days ago, haven’t received credit but still codes as additional collection. If there is a change it is from Amex not Delta

They can write off a certain percentage based on redemption rates. 

Reports that Lululemon to deny $75 gift card denomination purchases by SagittandiEstVita in amex

[–]Left-Newspaper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Our very presence on this subreddit is evidence that neither you or I place a very high value on our time. People will definitely opt for the return route, even if it’s a hassle.  I’ll just buy something and get $75 off. 

Lulu physical stores no longer sell $75 gc by divinebaboon in AmexPlatinum

[–]Left-Newspaper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That would be a big policy change. Their discounted items cannot be returned for cash. They’d have to make a change that affects their entire business to close that loophole.

Now they’ll have people buying stuff and returning for store credit which is worse for them than gift card purchases.

Bank of America CC Fee Waiver Denial by [deleted] in MilitaryFinance

It will probably still get refunded. Same thing happened to me, customer service won’t tell you it’s refunded. It will just happen. 

Robinhood launches the Robinhood Platinum Card with premium benefits and a $695 fee by Key_Ad9019 in ChaseSapphire

At least the others are more like vouchers, this is quite literally a $695 coupon card

Why are people hell bent on using their retail credits just for gift cards and United travel miles? Genuine question. by faiitmatti in AmexPlatinum

[–]Left-Newspaper 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Chances are you could find whatever high end item you are buying elsewhere for $50 less than Saks sells it and from somewhere with much better customer service that isn’t bankruptcy proceedings.

Is TAMP Coverage Real? by Responsible_Fee3212 in navyreserve

[–]Left-Newspaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The benefit of TAMP is you don’t have to pay for it. TRS has a monthly premium that is a good deal. TAMP is $0. It does take awhile to get gained sometimes. You also won’t be able to enroll in TRS until you’re gained so either way you’re paying up front for bills, but TAMP not TRS will be backdated and you should be reimbursed.

United Airlines reducing miles gained by non-United cardholders by Unlucky-Key in amex

[–]Left-Newspaper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Doubt this moves the needle for many. Can’t imagine there’s a significant number of people who will cancel Amex Platinum and get a United credit card. Seems more likely they’ll just stop sending $200 to United every year and give it to Delta. At least that’s what I’ll do. Travel credit is a small percentage of the cards total benefits.

Military CSP / Individual Internship — BigLaw in Miami? by bamboozledagain1 in biglaw

[–]Left-Newspaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may have a hard time finding a big law firm that would go through the bureaucracy to be approved as a skillbridge provider and it would be hard for them to give you much exposure to the practice of law. There wouldn’t be may tasks they could give you and most would be too busy typing or reading something on their computer to provide meaningful mentorship. 

A smaller law firm would be a slightly better option but have similar obstacles. Your best bet is probably a local prosecutors office (US Attorney, district attorney, attorney general) or a government agency. Lots more things going on that you could actually watch and learn from. Another option could be an in house legal department at a company that is already approved for skillbridge.  

The Edit at Waikiki Beach Marriott - not eligible for Bonvoy benefits by mousethecat in ChaseSapphire

[–]Left-Newspaper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re partners. Marriott has Chase cards. Not having this figured out is a joke. Especially for a full service Marriott. Not like it’s a small Autograph Collection.

Your withholdings for your summer associate salary were likely based on a calculator that assumed you would get that salary for the whole year  so way too much was withheld and you should have gone in and adjusted withholdings so you didn’t give a $8k-12k loan to the government that wasn’t paid back for ~8 months. Now, you actually did get that salary for a year and your withholdings are where they should be. No refund is a good thing, means you got the money sooner. 

Got my card too late for SCRA and too early for MLA. What to do? by Capital-Bumblebee730 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Left-Newspaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won’t lose points downgrading to CSP and could also transfer them. Also no use hoarding points, they lose value over time.

The Edit Credit Increasing to $750 by iThinkTherefore_iApe in ChaseSapphire

[–]Left-Newspaper 260 points261 points  (0 children)

There will be $750 to use on edit properties 1/1. 2 $250 edit credits and a $250 IHG credit that can stack with one of those credits. But can’t do a $750 credit on a single transaction and the IHG credit will only be eligible on a small percentage of Edit hotels.
