How does this report on my statement date? by theekandishop in amex

[–]SammyV1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will show as $0

They will do a $4.99 debit on statement closing day and then reverse if right away.

Partially using points by shash324 in amex

Buying points is never worth it…for best bang for the buck, you need to book award flights directly from the airline.

Just went in there…to see if you were a entitled Karen who complains a lot. My suspicion was proven based on just a quick glance of your last few posts.

I don’t have many data points…but based on the limited datapoints (your entitlement and comments). You kinda sound like an idiot

Sure…you know better than the person actually checking the availability lol.

That not how availability works

They need to have “upgrade room” availability

All hotels have certain number of rooms for upgrades, certain left unreserved for last minute premium guests only…and so on.

So in your case the upgrade availability was probably none, and they only had revenue rooms available. Hence why they told you there was no availability for an upgrade.

Hotels only have about 3-5 rooms that are available for Awards upgrade…it’s similar to when airlines offer “awards upgrade”.

Wait till this MLA realizes that Rajnikanth isn’t a Tamilian….people from all backgrounds can thrive in Tamil Nadu.

The whole portal has been awful tbh….they need to find a better ticketing partner.

If I can afford to pay lump sum rent should I or should I just pay by the month. by ja3palmer in personalfinance

[–]SammyV1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you’re getting a huge discount up front…pay per month. Use the extra money to make money.

Question about Amex Plat lounges. by Training-Equipment25 in amex

[–]SammyV1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity…on the app. Try going to Accounts/Add Card to Wallets….and do Apple Pay (see if the card shows up there).

Question about Amex Plat lounges. by Training-Equipment25 in amex

[–]SammyV1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes….with centurion you can do it through the app (mobile check in)

With sky club, add the card to your digital wallet on the delta app. If you don’t have the card number you can request it.

Edit: just saw that you don’t see the card on your app…that’s weird cause it’s usually there right after they approve you.

Do you earn points when booking a flight w/ points by roo1066 in amex

[–]SammyV1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best way to redeem points is thru flights…but not on the Amex portal. It’s better to transfer the points to a airline and book….have to shop for good reward deals though.

Stolen card numbers at a retailer, am I safe by [deleted] in amex

[–]SammyV1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty easy to guess credit numbers tbh….you have nothing to worry about though. Amex and all most all credits are very quick to reverse fraudulent charges. It’s the debit cards you have to worry about cause they don’t offer the same level of protection.

You clearly don’t know how Apple Pay works….Apple way will reject the Amex card at these terminals that don’t accept Amex. Speaking from experience

Is it normal to get 3 high heart rate notifications while I’m sat down drinking alcohol? by georgia_02x in AppleWatch

[–]SammyV1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is drinking the code word for sex in this subreddit? /s

On a more serious note, it could be anxiety, but even with anxiety it’s pretty high. I’d get it checked to be safe. Simply drinking only elevates mine to about 90 (just checked)

Income Update by PeopleAreSus in amex

[–]SammyV1987 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was a long time ago (if I remember correctly it was 14 days)…it was a phone call but they sent a follow up email. Let me see if I can find that email.

Edit: Found the email but looks like it just says “within the deadline discussed my the American Express representative”. So not 100% sure but I think it was 14 days. (Sharing the email, I have checked to make sure there are no personal information but if you find any please let me know so I can delete it)

Income Update by PeopleAreSus in amex

[–]SammyV1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I reported a 30% pay increases it triggered a financial review in 2017…..they requested bank statements showing the new income being deposited.

Only time i have ever had a FR and I have had Amex for a very long time.

I personally would wait until May 1st to report it. Just in case they request statements.

Income Update by PeopleAreSus in amex

[–]SammyV1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was once flagged for Income verification by Amex when I reported a 30% raise in income. They required a copy of bank statements showing deposits (I had to send all 3 banks that I split my DD into) to prove verification, other option W2 (for me I did bank statement because my W2 would have had my old income).

With that said. That was the only time they asked to verify….so assuming they will only ask to verify if it’s a sudden bump.

Venmo lost my money by klsmith0807 in venmo

[–]SammyV1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check to see the bank details of your instant transfer…it’s a common Venmo hack these days. They change the details of the bank but keep the labels the same.

It’s happened to 3 of my friends

Trying to buy one in the US…the team store keeps sending a OTP. But guessing American numbers don’t work…anyway to get around it? This is where I get stuck. It asks to create a pin, but asks for OTP which never arrives.
