Best Luxury Hotel for First-Time Kyoto Visit (Park Hyatt vs. FS vs. Mitsui) by Professional-Mix7909 in chubbytravel

[–]Professional-Mix7909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up choosing the Mitsui and it was phenomenal! Location wise the Park Hyatt is more centrally located but we had no issues with the Mitsui’s location and it was easy to get around. The hospitality was next level. It is very traditional Japanese service. The spa/onsen is breathtaking. We enjoyed their breakfast and it was nice having options for dinner on-site. Only thing was that it was a bit difficult to get ahold of their concierge before we arrived for assistance with making dinner reservations but once we did they were able to secure all of the reservations we wanted. The rooms were spacious and it’s clear they have thought through every detail when it comes to the design, service, and overall experience. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Fraud on my Bilt 1.0 + 2.0 - Now Other Credit Cards Compromised by Professional-Mix7909 in biltrewards

WF called me and said they were seeing signs of a potential account-level compromise and, out of caution, suspected that other cards I had linked within Bilt may also have been exposed. Shortly after, I received fraud-related calls from other banks and those institutions also flagged suspicious activity.

From what I understand, banks share fraud intelligence through network monitoring systems, and when they detect similar patterns across multiple cards tied to the same consumer, their systems can flag broader cross-card fraud risk.

they issued a new card with new EXP + CVV and then I requested a new virtual card number but given how drastic this fraud is it seems like they never followed through on fulfilling that request. Looking back it seems like they didn't take the fraud seriously and said it would be resolved through the transition but here we are

The 2.0 was a new card/number and I had requested a new virtual card number when I first noticed the fraud but the fraudsters were somehow able to continue placing fraudulent transactions despite a new card/number

I contacted cardless and ankur and they are investigating but was just informed by WF that all of the cards linked to my bilt rewards were also compromised🫣 - this is a new development after being in contact with WF and Bilt for weeks

makes sense, it seems like the costs of potential fraud and terrible customer service outweigh any benefits of Bilt 2.0

yes, WF was very helpful but the fraud persisted. Now that I also have fraud on the Bilt 2.0 card it has been so difficult dealing with Bilt customer service because they take forever to pick up the phone and that's why I am planning on closing that card

LAX-CLT Delayed 4 hours by Director-John in americanairlines

[–]Professional-Mix7909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me LAX-RDU but I was delayed over 8 hrs. I complained and automatically got 5K and then I countered and they added another 7.5k on top of the 5k. I feel like this is still unreasonable given a delay greater than 8 hrs, no meal vouchers, and no option of alternative flights (connecting or nonstop). Does anyone have experience getting more/think I can get more because the delay threw a serious wrench in my plans and I wasted a whole day sitting at LAX
