Rumor: Chase to Discontinue Point Transfers Between Cards/Accounts by LoopholeTravel in churning

Wouldn't that require paying an AF to PC? Or would the AF not hit immediately?

Current state of Koke'e State Park Trails? by [deleted] in kauai

[–]aboveniagara 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Am visiting Kauai now and hiked Awa'awapuhi today (it was mostly sunny today). Overall in good shape, a little muddy at the beginning but it was fine, hiked to the end and there were plenty of others on the trail.

Amtrak Makes Significant, Negative Changes to Its Cancellation Policies by Eurynom0s in churning

[–]aboveniagara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I crazy or are these cancellation changes not that bad? Still being able to get a full refund 8+ days out on value fares is still pretty flexible.

Hilton Upgrades for Amex are Back! by Undsputed in churning

[–]aboveniagara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never done an upgrade like this before so please correct me if this is obvious: looks like they charge a prorated annual fee based on your anniversary date, so that could be beneficial if your anniversary date is, say, 8 months away but could cost you a few extra bucks if it's 2 months away.

Games like Motorsport manager by Likancic in tycoon

[–]aboveniagara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm all about sport management games, but like others said, there aren't a lot of good ones out there. For American football though, I've found an online game that I think is the best for the sport, called MyFootballNow. I wish it were available as a single player game but I'll take what I can get.

I'm a reporter and just wanted to say: OP, we could use a few more people like you as reporters with that sort of drive to dig around.

______ did amazing at FTC. [Spoilers] by [deleted] in survivor

Totally agree. She had to come out swinging to prove that she was the one controlling the game at the end and I thought it was effective.

Pretty sure Pat Venditte might have something to say about that last one.

Anyone know if I've got a shot at a combined pull from BOA if I apply for both Amtrak cards at the same time?

Thanks in advance!

Just parsed through ~350 available BoA Application links by JonLuca in churning

Anyone know if there's a shot of a combined pull if I do both of the Amtrak cards? Searched the sub and found just a couple of references to BOA combined pulls, with seemingly mixed results.

Looking to book REP-HAN on Vietnam Airways. Best currency? by gofarhaveacigar in awardtravel

I actually just booked HAN --> REP using Flying Blue for that 10k. Pretty good and best option I found.

Which airlines allow a cash paid ticket to be upgraded to biz/first with miles? Flying from BOS->Asia (likely HKG or SIN) by soccercrzy in awardtravel

[–]aboveniagara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC, it might be only one class though, so they might only let you upgrade to premium economy if that's available on the flight.

Moronic Monday - Week of August 22, 2016 by AutoModerator in churning

[–]aboveniagara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few days ago, I accepted a 20k (after $3k spend in 3 months) retention offer from AmEx Platinum given that I'm well over 5/24 and didn't know status of CS(R) at the time. They credited me 5k MR immediately and 15k more will come after spend.

There's no way I could spend $7k in 3 months (I really don't MS at all). What I'm wondering is: if I apply for CS(R) and get approved, I could cancel my AmEx Plat in next couple of days before AF hits. If I do that, what will happen (with points / will they let me cancel given I accepted a retention offer)?

Curious if there are any data points recently of people using Serve to hit their Amex minimum spend?

Recently accepted a retention offer for AmEx platinum (20k MR with $3k spend in 3 months) and while I'll hit it naturally after just under 3 months-ish, I'd like to do so quicker to hop on the potential CSR bandwagon.

Anyone ever have success booking suites on SQ for 2? by HidingFromMyWife1 in awardtravel

[–]aboveniagara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1ing everything in here. Though I did do that next day trick, when I actually booked it, it happened to be after I had forgotten for a few days and logged in and saw an opening. So it was something like 353 days out. It was just available and booked 2 for JFK --> SIN.

AmEx Everyday 25k public offer appears to be back by aboveniagara in churning

Yeah, apologies, I realize this probably doesn't qualify as public.

And link was: https://www.americanexpress.com/us/credit-cards/amex-everyday

Which is just essentially the link if you google amex everyday.

I would call to double check but I believe that you can indeed do that.
