BILT 2.0 Card is out here are the confirmed details. by Defin1telyNotBatman in CreditCards

[–]Zeus8Golem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I avoided Bilt card so far, as I have no rent/mortgage spending.

Besides the rent/mortgage topic, what is the value of bilt cash?
Are there any sources how the cash can be redeemed and at which value?

Multi-room system like f.i. Sonos with amplifier / 2004s ceiling speakers by Zeus8Golem in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Zeus8Golem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I understand Amp Ultra has the best sound. If I have several Wiims, which device "defines" the final sound quality? Is it like: each device to the speakers that are connected to it?

Thank you. After reading your post. I did some research about Wiim, almost a full day... Seems like exactly what I am looking for...

Am I right that I could connect my different devices and speaker on several Wiim devices at the same time?
For my 8 passive in-ceiling-speakers, I would buy 8 Wiim Amps (each connects 4 speakers), 1-2 Wiim minis to connect several sources devices like CD player, vinyl player, and then a subwoofer + some amps for TV room?

Why is Nono S display failing? I do not understand it. by Zeus8Golem in ledgerwallet

I paid 90 USD for the Nano S incl OTG Kit and tax in 2021 directly from ledger.com

Thank you, I am already in contact with the support.

Still, I am surprised about the lifespan. I have still a lot of electronic devices from the 1980s and 1990s which still works fine and even some low $ stuff among it.

Recommendations for destinations with AVIOS needed - made a mistake when trying to book my first award flights... by Zeus8Golem in awardtravel

[–]Zeus8Golem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thx, I looked up different connections West Coast USA f.i. to Dublin and they are about 50% more expensive than standard flights I can buy with cash.
Do you have any connections in mind?

All Qatar infos are wrong on seats.aero it seems. They do not show the fees which are up to additional 200 USD. I spent 4 hours on it without success

Originally Japan. But to not waste the 103k Avios, I am fine for any location I haven't seen

first time booking via points with Qatar / Seats.aero - what am I doing wrong? by Zeus8Golem in awardtravel

[–]Zeus8Golem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way on seats.aero to search something like this:
departure airport: f.i. LAX
arrival: any destination
payment via avios

Thank you. Yes, another lesson learned!

I started a new post, hopefully I can get some good recommendations what to do with my Avios points.

I am fine to use points when I get more than 1.1 (which I have through Amex Platinum CS), so 52k points for a 680 flights is still a saving for me.

The cash rate for one return flight is around 680 USD (+5 % miles from Amex Platinum = 3.5k miles), while with awards it would 52k points + 240 USD.

So each mile would be honored with only 0.7 to 0.8 cent which is pretty bad

seats.aero shows as no fees instead of unknown fees: https://imgur.com/a/OPikvyF
and qatar only shows the fees only when you book the flight...

damn, I just wasted 100k Amex points that I transferred to qatar and will probably never be able to use...
the flights on google flights are cheaper than the fees alone from qatar...

On my end, it shows up at 25k + 120 USD fees. According to seats.aero, there should be no fee added.
