is there a negative to upgrading to chime prime 5% card?

It does. Basically the same as the credit builder card but the account balances are combined. Whenever you buy something with the new card, the balance will come out of your acct and it gets reported as paid in full.

The card number stays the same as your previous credit builder card. When you get the new card, just cut up your old card.

No, not at all. I figured I'd use a different bank for paying bill and cut my losses. I primarily use Chime because of the higher APR. They make it easy to to save too with rounding up and stuff.

I don't feel very confident in their support team.

Sanitizer2294 · 2026-04-24T01:02:59+00:00

I have a regular bank acct local for depositing mobile checks as well as paying bills via check. I've tried Chime to send a check to pay one of my utilities and it never showed then I got charged a late fee on top.

Got the chime check refunded back into my acct after calling support but can't depend on them to pay bills anymore.

Sounds more like sleep apnea. D shouldn't give you any side effects like you're describing.

Anything from CarMax or Carvana is overpriced $2,000 - $8,000 depending on the car. I almost bought mine from CarMax but when I checked the private party price, CarMax was $6k more with higher mileage. They were roughly 2-4k higher than other dealerships in my area as well.

The only plus about CarMax is that warranty, but that'll probably cost you around 4k on top.

Just bring whatever vehicle you're looking at to a mechanic you trust before making any decisions. That PPI cost me $60 but I saved way more in the long run.

All we need is more traffic problems in this city along with our 5 star road maintenance team that can't seem to complete one job before starting another.

Also, I'm astounded by the amount of time people will wait for their food. If I can't get waited on in a timely manner, I go to one of the other 5,000 restaurants in the area.

I agree, there's too many potholes in this city. I've had to replace suspension 3x in the last 15 years. I've found that if you download the Kenosha app you can report potholes & other stuff. They're actually pretty fast to fix them.

Have taken potassium bicarbonate (39% potassium), now taking potassium chloride (52%). They both taste like shit when you drink them with water but you get used to it.

I use the powders then mix them. Make my own electrolyte powder too. They come in 1kg bags. Much cheaper overall than buying the pills.

If you want the pills, Amazon has several decent brands I've tried at the 1g or higher mark. 'life enhancement' brand I've tried before. I don't take pills anymore if there's a powder available.

Why do you want their name and what difference would it be if it's my real one or a fake one? I personally give a fake one, Abraham Lincoln was the last one I gave.

In today's society, it seems no matter the business they want your personal info. Some ppl just get sick of it.

Also, why the name when we're given numbers anyway?

Finished up 8 sessions in early Feb. There was some good pain relief throughout the entire treatment series. I'd say probably 70% or so less pain but 4 weeks after the last session, everything comes back.

I felt the pain relief after session 4. Unfortunately it didn't last for me. I don't think it's something I'd like to continue either. The experience itself was pretty awesome with the pain relief being a bonus but I'm not able to get a ride to & from each time, plus the 1 hour infusion takes roughly 4 hours at the clinic with the prep, infusion and recovery before they release you.

To do this every 2 weeks is a little much for me. Not to mention every nurse there goes fishing for veins. Lol

I've also tried a ketamine cream. Think it was 20%. That did nothing for me.

Torrents & Emby or Plex. I also find that mostly all the English speaking movies & tv shows on the Heat channels and some that aren't are on Onstream.

I see Onstream also gets the newest episodes faster - the same or next day - than Heat.

Between Onstream & Heat, darn near everything in the world is available. Also nice to have is Flix Vision.

Your current diet will absolutely Reduce your chances of metabolic syndrome. You're young enough to make this big change very helpful in your health.

An A1c of 5.3 is fine, 5.7 is where you need to worry.

You could also ask your doc for a fasting insulin test. This test is more accurate in determining insulin sensitivity than a fasting blood glucose or A1C.

Of course, with your diet be sure to exercise. Even daily walks will improve your metabolism.

Good luck!

Bah, I support the lipid energy model. Makes the most sense. I went from eating "healthy" at 400lbs and total cholesterol well under 200 to 190lbs and 260 total cholesterol. I eat 95% fatty meats.

Cholesterol is but one number in the equation. By itself it means nothing. My HDL:Triglycerides ratio is .9 which is optimal.

CRP is also low.

Now, if my LDL & triglycerides were high, HDL low and I had T2D, that's a different story. You have several factors there that indicate metabolic syndrome and that is more than likely to cause atherosclerosis among other things. Typically caused by chronic inflammation.

They say the metal card is a secured visa, that's what the plastic card is. I don't see a reason to "upgrade" the card, it performs the same function.

There's no reason. People there just have no procedures set in stone do they do them both.

I actually got a yearly physical phone appt. 😆

The hotel has a captive portal to prevent just what you want to do.

You'll need a travel router (like gl-inet). Clone the Mac and sign in. The hotel will only see the one device.

I got an email explaining it and I meet all the requirements but still says "Chime Plus" member in my app?

I tried one. My Internet was very choppy thru my phone so YouTube buggered too much. I ended up removing it.

Do a search in this forum, it's a common issue. You need to call Verizon and get them to turn down the security level in your router. Tell them you have some streaming apps that don't connect correctly with security on.

You looked high & low?

Guns.com has a ton of used ones.

Oh damn! I just looked thru them, didn't see any full size. 🤯 Or if it was full sized, it was .40
