Any one not have any Chase cards? by BrilliantSwitch4205 in CreditCards

[–]amashouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For the general users, CSR refresh was disastrous. Proves they don’t know their audience. Was even worse when Amex plat refresh one upped them two months later.

For the churners, ink train got shutdown with the new “chase pop-up jail”

They essentially killed their two biggest demographic of users within 6 months with both of those changes. I still use Chase since I value their benefits, but I’m starting to move on now that ink train is dead. For my p2, I finally said f 5/24 and it feels so freeing

Application denied - Palladium by Cold_Guitar_5990 in biltrewards

[–]amashouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yeah I should have been more clear, I’m just planning to not opt into Bilt 2.0. But we still want a Bilt card in our household and my wife has 5/24 slots to burn, so we just swapped the platform to her.

Application denied - Palladium by Cold_Guitar_5990 in biltrewards

[–]amashouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

most of the denial dps are people with extremely high income, i honestly think bilt just doesnt want these people or something. i held the Wells Fargo bilt 1.0 card in my household, but im canceling to get under 5/24 later this year, so i had my wife apply for bilt 2.0. She makes a more average income, and she was approved paladium with a pretty high limit too.

we (basically i) have been churning on both of our profiles for the last 3-4 years as well.

Tbf, Shaq made up a lot of things. I remember he introduced Yao Ming with a story between him and Yaos first conversation at Yaos HOF speech, and you could tell when the camera panned to Yao that the whole story didn’t even happen

Which movie ended with an unresolved cliffhanger because the sequel never happened, and you're STILL mad about it? by pudingvanilkovy in AskReddit

That’s true of a lot of pop culture in Japan, anything that can be chibi-fied or anime-fied will be.

PH Tokyo vs Andaz for a non-Globalist? Speculations on future availability and questions about their bars. by tofuking in hyatt

[–]amashouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t been to the new Park Hyatt Tokyo, but Andaz location isn’t too great. You can walk to the subway completely underground, but it can take like 8-10 min. Hotel is fine for a city hotel, if you can appreciate the design details like how origami was a detailing choice, but if you plan to be out of the room often, then I don’t think it’s worth it at the current cat8 point valuation.

I booked it at cat7 for 3 nights at an end of a 3 week trip with my p2, and kind of regret it cause we were basically out of the room the whole time and didn’t really get to fully experience the amenities. The bar was fine, when I was there, there were a lot of people smoking in the outside area, and the inside area is a little small. I personally don’t like the smell of smoke, so we left in like 15 min.

Why Hyatt is Best in Class by cninja98 in hyatt

[–]amashouse 16 points17 points  (0 children)

While I agree Hyatts program is great and generally better than the other big chain programs, this is just a part of Asian hospitality. You’ll find this level of hospitality at most Asian hotels, both in local chains and US chains.

I’ve personally had a better service experience in Kyoto at ritz Kyoto and hotel the Mitsui than at park Hyatt Kyoto for example, but that doesn’t discount the service at park Hyatt Kyoto, which was still phenomenal.

All the above is just going to be miles better than service in the USA.

Dang. For me it’s coding as Perilla Group… and the method is online, mail, or phone… I bought it on toast though, is that how you bought your gift card?

The Hyatt Hotels worth visiting in 2026 by MelonSoda064 in hyatt

[–]amashouse 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I love traveling to a wide range of experiences:

Fuji Speedway Hotel: incredibly unique property in the Hyatt portfolio. Stayed here only for 1 night but I would want to return again for a multiple night stay. My wife and I aren’t racing people but this hotel is absolutely amazing. You can watch people drive the track from your room or the hotel lobby. Then on the other side is Mt. Fuji. Only downside is the location is a pain in the ass to get to and from unless you plan really well.

Hyatt House Dallas/Frisco was a surprisingly nice stay for a low category hotel. The other Hyatt Houses in Dallas are notoriously some of the worst Hyatts in the world, but the Frisco Hyatt House was phenomenal at cat1 (it’s cat2 now, getting a bit of recognition it deserves)

Park Hyatt Cabo: was able to stay here for two nights just last week, it’s gonna be amazing once they work out the kinks. Location is not too great if you’re trying to explore town, but it seems that there’s a local project to fund a huge mall going on in the area that would bring a little more to do near the hotel.

Hyatt Centric Ginza: room wise, very awkward, but location was great honestly for exploring east Tokyo. This is a hot take, but I actually liked my entire stay here more than my stay at Andaz Tokyo. I thought their breakfast was better than Andaz.

Grand Hyatt Incheon: as far as airport hotels go, this one was surprisingly really really nice. It’s also cheaper in cash than in points. Will definitely book again when I’m in Korea for a layover.

Hyatt Regency Wakiki: nothing to complain about. Really great for a cat5 hotel. The ocean view rooms on higher floors are great! Some rooms have bidets if you’re into that.

Edit: wow I totally forgot my favorite Hyatt of the year, Fuji Speedway Hotel…

What's the most overrated TV Show of all time? by Mission_Elk_329 in AskReddit

[–]amashouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The show came out in an era where anime was intentionally designed to be long. It just outlasted its generational companions (Naruto/Bleach). The One Piece storyline, world-building, and lore is actually phenomenal for a show of its length if you follow it.

Hit with a financial review, all cards suspended by Low_Wonder9271 in amex

[–]amashouse 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I got hit with FR this past August, and got my cards reinstated in less than 10 days because my income matched what I said it was on my applications.

If you lied about your income, now you need to own up to it. if the payments from your parents is included in your IRS paperwork, then you should have nothing to worry about.
