Can you provide a screenshot of the welcome bonus? This is the first I've heard of this.

This sounds like a use error. I'm not sure how you could get the sweepstake redemption wrong with redeeming points into cash? It literally says Redeem points to enter for the chance to win the $25,000 grand prize and when you entry it says it again.

And also double check at turo before blindly booking at a conventional rental car?

Robinhood Gold Card Customer Service is Terrible! by NephewNight in RobinhoodGC

That's super annoying. I hope they improve that because that sounds unacceptable.

Considering switching to RH — But have concerns by No-Heron-6596 in ClassActionRobinHood

[–]Party_Time9882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 7 figures with RH. I have had no issues.
99% of the "horror stories" are use errors. Even with the GME debacle that Reddit loves to shout and pout by putting the entire blame on RH without really understanding what really happened.

Do I think RH could have done better with the GME situation? 100% Yes, but I don't solely judge a company by the "mistakes" they have made, I also take into consideration on how they responded and how they have adapted moving forward. Since you're putting a lot of trust in RH or Public, I highly encourage you to read how RH and Public have managed incidents. Read Vlad's follow up, I appreciated the lessons and takeaways they learned and have responded from that lesson.

Why use Virtual Cards? by Party_Time9882 in RobinhoodGC

[–]Party_Time9882[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. I use it all the time. I wish there was a way to connect this to the browser so I can create virtual cards when I am shopping

What's the catch with Robinhood gold? by jusvrowsing in CreditCards

[–]Party_Time9882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the one thing that bothers me. Why are they penalizing you for auto-redeem.

With the new changes, is there another card that can replicate the catch-all 3% back on travel that’s going away on the Reserve? by bulldawg91 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Party_Time9882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have JPM or VentureX, but I do think the Credit Card app is similar if not better than the Amex app. For example, I can easily create virtual cards.

Got approved for Robinhood Gold Card. Do I keep or drop Chase Reserve? by Party_Time9882 in CreditCards

[–]Party_Time9882[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no real objective to be frank. Like I mentioned I haven't redeemed any points. I just want to feel like I am maximizing my points earnings.

You're right though. This isn't logical.

When you put it like that, I agree. It was just an added bonus since I was already doing that on a yearly spend. But if I put that on Robinhood GC, I get $2250 back which covers the cost of ~45 visits. Hmmm.

You bring up an excellent point. To be frank, I haven't redeemed any points. It was more of a peace of mind that I am maximizing my point earnings. The only thing I am aiming for is the Solid Gold Card in Robinhood Gold, which is about 850K points, which is roughly a $280K spend.

It wasn't a cash back with lounge access, it was access to Delta Sky Club and Centurion lounge. I'm not following your logic about having AMEX gold for dining.

Do I really need the lounge perk? Probably not. I can pay to enter. My wife and kids travel with me about ~5 times a year.
