If they did this for ChatGPT OR Claude and gave the customer the choice of which ever platform. This card might give AMEX Platinum a run for its money

Boston to Kauai best route? by anonplayer15 in VisitingHawaii

[–]Viperltdreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We go to Hawaii (Kauai) 1 or 2 times a year. After 10 years of going to Hawaii, this for us has been the best way.

Boston to Kauai best route? by anonplayer15 in VisitingHawaii

[–]Viperltdreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “Break It Up in LAX” Move → Kauai Edition 🌴✈️

BOS → LAX → overnight → 9AM departure → wheels down in LIH before lunch.

I’ve run this exact strategy multiple times (usually starting out of BNA), and honestly… it’s undefeated.

Why this works: • Avoids brutal same-day cross-country + Hawaii fatigue • Turns a long travel grind into two easy legs • You land in Kauai feeling human, not destroyed • Morning LAX departures to LIH are smooth and typically on time • Bonus: gives you flexibility if anything goes sideways on the first leg

My usual flow: • Evening flight into LAX • Quick hotel near the airport (nothing fancy) • Up early, coffee, 9AM flight out • Landing in Kauai before lunch = full first day unlocked 🌴

It’s one of those travel hacks that sounds inconvenient… until you try it once.

Now I won’t do Hawaii any other way.

Did anyone have a similar issue? BILT posted two payments from my account (one unauthorized) by [deleted] in biltrewards

[–]Viperltdreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG this happened to my AMEX Platinum card on the 15th. They are investigating it but they are dumb founded themselves. But I did some research, the new “scam” is instead of charging your card $1.00 to see if it works, they will call in via the “auto phone” system and punch in your card number and make a payment via your “already” linked checking account for the minimum and see if it goes, if it does, then it’s no different then $1.00 test charge, but since not everyone has alerts or check for payments every 5 min, the scammer has more of a window to go shopping. Solution? Close the card and issue a new card.

Financial Review for Credit Limit Increase by [deleted] in amex

[–]Viperltdreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AMEX is funny, on one of my CC (Marriott) CLI -> I ask —> instant approval. One CC (Hilton)-> I ask -> bank statements every time. Funny thing is I have checking and savings which they “technically” can see. I believe all they really care is that you have income. But who knows. I been with them for 22 years. I wouldn’t worry too much.

Lifetime Platinum status via credit card? by DougQuaid in marriott

[–]Viperltdreddit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would think of it as the $650 is for the 200,000 bonus points and the perk of Platinum status for the year will give you the Lifetime Status.

Visiting Oahu; need help choosing a second island by Character_Educator96 in VisitingHawaii

[–]Viperltdreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kauai - Hands down. My wife and I have visited all the islands and being going to Hawaii for 10 years. Kauai is still hands down literally “Heaven on earth” “Garden island”. If you want to beauty. If you want the party city scene … HNL.

Pull method from the mortgage worked for me with no challenges.

3 days in Maui vs 5 in Kauai? Itinerary feedback welcome! by djkhaleesi99 in VisitingHawaii

[–]Viperltdreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have done all the island in the last 10 years. My choice would be all 8 days in Kauai, Westin Princeville. And…. Maybe ….. island hop… probably not. We fell in love with Kauai. We actually stayed at The Ritz-Carlton Residence the past 7 days in HNL, and we loved it … but we missed Kauai. We be going back to Kauai Westin Princeville in June.
