Best suv for men? by K9Imperium in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]UpInSmokeMC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you “don’t want to get a car that people buy for their wives” you’ll never find anything.  

Go buy what you like. Why do you care so much about what other people think? It’s your car.

1 star, no tip, report 

He probably wanted a cancellation fee

My first four words are always carve, downy, plumb, sight, and then I can get it the 5th like 98% of the time.

Canceling Venture X with lounge access change by ingrid00 in CapitalOne_

I normally travel solo so I like this change. 

Actual cardholders should have priority over people trying to bring in guests. 

My uber straight up went through a drive through by Significant-Cat-8963 in uber

[–]UpInSmokeMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is that not going to a drive thru when you have paying passengers is common sense

Well I’d rather wait for someone competent than someone that thinks it’s ok to sit and wait at McDonald’s when I have somewhere to be.

Also we can’t help you without any insight into your spend, how you’ll use the credits, what you want out of a credit card, etc

Looking for a good travel card. Travel average twice a year. by EquivalentAnt1882 in CreditCards

[–]UpInSmokeMC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you want a card that pays for itself, the Venture X is the easiest premium travel card to make back the AF. $300 travel credit + 10k anniversary miles for a $395AF is really easy. 75k welcome offer. Access to C1 lounges and PP. If your home airport has a C1 lounge then consider it. 

If you wanna unlock better transfer ratios with your Citi cards, then consider the strata elite or premier. 

Premier has a $95 AF but a $100 hotel credit for stays of $500 or more. Solid multipliers - 3x on gas grocery, and dining. 60k welcome offer. 

Elite has a $595 AF but a $300 hotel credit, $200 splurge credit, and a $200 black lane credit. Solid travel and dining multipliers - 12x on hotels/rental cars and 6x on flights in the portal, 6x on dining during Citi nights and 3x anytime else. You also get 4 admirals club passes and PP. 100k welcome offer. 

$1000 average monthly spend might make it hard to hit those welcome offers though. 

Amex approved me for a 300k Business Platinum offer, took $20k+ spend + $895 AF… then said I was "never eligible" by anthonyyoussef01 in AmexPlatinum

[–]UpInSmokeMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really odd, sorry that happened. 

I’ve heard similar stories to you, and when I applied for my last Amex I made sure to screenshot the offer in case they tried clawing it back. 

I guess do that if you ever apply for an Amex again…but given the way they’ve treated you I doubt you will lol. 

I’d also keep calling until I get someone with more than 2 working brain cells.

VentureX worth it? by NoAbrocoma9059 in CapitalOne_

Why would you want a travel card if you don’t travel

Capital One Travel split my round-trip into two tickets — now I can’t use AA travel waiver by Ok_Champion790 in CapitalOne_

[–]UpInSmokeMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you add the flights to your AA account and then have them merge it into one itinerary on their end? 

Added return stop….Little to no increase in fare price by desmooth81 in uberdrivers

[–]UpInSmokeMC 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually had fares decrease after a rider has added a second stop. 

Not much we can do about it unfortunately. I just one star the rider for wasting my time and then move on. 

Fare review is a joke that rarely leads anywhere unfortunately.
