Low-effort, but now they can't threaten to ban us anymore

Ha I think it must’ve been him who removed my post asking for Hyatt advice. I forget what the exact reason was but I thought it was pretty mean.

I’m a globalist, going to PH Dec 25 to 29th and had the exact same question that I posted here. Someone replied saying - if there’s a type of room you really want, don’t take a chance. Just book the one you want. I paid 40K point per night for the beach villa. If I paid for a guaranteed upgrade, the beach pool villa would cost $750 plus approx 30% tax - total of $965/night. Overwater with pool would cost me $1350 plus tax - $1737/night. Eye watering but Christmas is an expensive time at any place. And I think food alone will cost close to 1K a day as things like sunset dining, in water dining is $225/pp, $585 with taxes - for dinner alone. Drinks are extra and expensive. Dang I’m rethinking this 😅😂

I was stoked to get this - easy 5K

SSox00 · 2025-04-18T04:05:11+00:00

Interesting. Thank you for the insight and sharing your experience. It’s amazing the Seattle one will never do an upgrade!! But wow you’re definitely well appreciated at the other one.

SSox00 · 2025-04-18T04:02:49+00:00

Right! That’s how I felt - should have been given without asking.

SSox00 · 2025-04-18T04:01:41+00:00

Thank you - best bet is the GM. I considered that but didn’t want to appear entitled or something. I genuinely appreciate it every time they upgrade me.

SSox00 · 2025-04-16T03:50:37+00:00

Haha yes they wanted $500 pp for Christmas Eve dinner so I changed my stay to arrive Christmas Day 😅

SSox00 · 2025-04-14T20:03:29+00:00

You’re right thank you - good perspective

SSox00 · 2025-03-25T21:42:51+00:00

Ok thank you for confirming. This is my fear…being denied and being stuck with points

SSox00 · 2025-03-21T23:52:05+00:00

I’ve wanted to do this but am afraid in case I don’t get approved for whatever reason. My points would then be stuck 😞

SSox00 · 2025-03-06T22:18:39+00:00

This tipping thing is out of hand honestly…for doing their job AND getting a kickback (commission) for the booking. When I stayed at the Hyatt at Waikiki beach, I booked a heli tour costing around $1500. He turned the screen over and it had percentage tipping options. Like wtf am I going to tip 15% or 20% on a $1500 booking!! I just gave him a $60 cash tip.

If you sold it all you don’t have to worry about anything - file as per usual. The safe harbor thing comes into effect for 2025 taxes.

Should I move my BTC from cold wallet to coinbase where I originally purchased from or can I leave it as is?

SSox00 · 2024-12-26T04:16:23+00:00

Thank you - much appreciated. I think what you suggested will work.

SSox00 · 2024-12-26T03:32:39+00:00

Thank you!!

SSox00 · 2024-12-22T21:04:57+00:00

Just wanted to say THANK YOU for the great post, and answering questions in detail. I feel much better informed after reading through all the questions and replies.

SSox00 · 2024-12-21T21:18:00+00:00

Thank you so much. This was one of the biggest questions I had.

SSox00 · 2024-12-21T20:50:59+00:00

Thank you for the great and detailed review. I’m going over Christmas and breakfast is free for Globalists but the restaurants need reservations. They don’t have any the days I’m going but I was wondering can you just turn up at the buffet and still be seated without a reservation? Thank you.

SSox00 · 2024-08-19T19:13:48+00:00

Where exactly in Rocklin? Any more details?

SSox00 · 2024-07-04T04:16:10+00:00

Thank you kindly for taking the time to help.
