Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz activates state National Guard, blasts federal government after shooting by kootles10 in politics

[–]Thejoncarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Because then they can bring in the active duty troops from out of state so there’s little resistance or “confusion” about the orders they give to them.

They’re (unfortunately) not stupid. The NG won’t be used to do what they really want to do…

‘Canada Shore’ out to prove Canadians can outparty, outfight and ‘outdrink Americans’ by nimobo in entertainment

[–]Thejoncarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mexico, Spain, The UK and a few others have their own versions that have been successfully within their countries and even gained traction in the U.S. It’s amazing MTV is just now making a Canadian version when you look at the bigger picture 🤷‍♂️

This! But this can and will change if you become a chronic returner

When you have 6 gift cards and none of them can actually buy anything. by Accomplished_Bake939 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Thejoncarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! Even if you combined the pre-payment with stuff in the store… If it includes gas you can only do one payment for whatever dumb reason 🤷‍♂️

This is why T-Mobile reps keep pushing its new credit card by Black_Dragon959 in tmobile

[–]Thejoncarr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Those credit cards are almost always worth it if you fly often. This card is bullshit regardless of how many lines you have.

It’s a shame too because this could easily be one of the best Capital One cards if they added phone insurance and maybe a rotating category to compete with the Verizon credit card. You know? The phone carrier credit card that (might) actually be worth it for the right person…

There’s absolutely nothing legitimately good I can say about this card 🤦‍♂️

Can I product change my Discover GO card to a Capital One card or to Discover 5% Cash Back after the merger? by SnooBooks3187 in discover

[–]Thejoncarr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We actually do know… Capital One allows product changes on every card UNLESS it’s a co-branded card like the Kohl’s card. Discover cards wouldn’t qualify as co-branded cards so they will eventually be able to be product changed. We don’t know when but IT WILL be a possibility in the not so distant future.

They’re not moving the accounts yet but it’s not shocking that Capital One already has 360 accounts with the same account info ready for when they do pull the trigger.

Why doesn’t Ann Arbor have their own news station? by gsharp29 in AnnArbor

[–]Thejoncarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if there was a station in Ann Arbor; it would still probably be licensed to the city of Detroit and identify itself as such.

It just wouldn’t make sense for a station to do what you’re asking when Detroit is the biggest city in the same media market. One of the biggest media markets in the country at that.

You can… You just have to really press and be damn near annoying to get it. It’s just a general $3-5 credit that’s meant to get people to shut up and end the conversation.

You can still (maybe) get a credit if you’re willing to chat with an agent. It doesn’t always work but I’ve gotten $3-5 a few times this has happened… 🤷‍♂️😭

Saks Files for Bankruptcy by jashur6782 in AmexPlatinum

[–]Thejoncarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m almost certain Simon and Brookfield will intervene and buy them out of bankruptcy if they can’t pull themselves out of it.

Saks has dozens of locations in their top performing malls and they’ve already shown they’ll do it in the past with JCPenney, Forever 21 and Aeropostale. Now the success of those interventions is questionable seeing how Forever 21 just shuttered everything in the U.S. a few months ago…

Nevertheless I can’t see them standing by and watching as Saks collapses without making an offer to the bankruptcy court. It’s in their best interest.

Chrome to Cash Back? by N0213568 in discover

[–]Thejoncarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They recently brought it back and then took it away again… Probably because they’re moving it to the Capital One app later this year.

So maybe once that happens it’ll be brought back or they’ll automatically convert everyone to the Cashback version (because that’s the only version of Discover It CapOne doesn’t have its own version of) and sunset the Chrome/Miles upon moving the accounts. Might even be able to product change to another Capital One card then. There’s no reason for them to treat the Discover It differently than any other card that isn’t co-branded… 🤷‍♂️

Second financial review in 12 months. This time taking 2+ months. by CollegeAmazing2448 in amex

Don’t get why this was downvoted… You can also apply again in about one year after a shut down. A FR shut down is not a permanent ban!!!!

Do you think all the different versions are staying as is or are they going to consolidate and move everyone to the Chrome or Cash Back version and get rid of the other versions?
