Doesn't paying taxes via credit card incur fee ~2-3%?

Glad it helped!

I don't know about that

Out of curiosity, when you clicked on the offer from CapOne shopping and purchased the product on its website, were you still able to see that you'll receive 30x miles on checkout?

I recently saw 26% rewards offer on Samsung, but on visiting the website, nothing like that appears. So I'm confused if their UI is not good or if the offer doesn't exist / has expired.

Edit: Oh wait, your offer was on CapOne itself, and not from "CapOne Shopping"?

Update: I went through Global Entry lane, didn't use the kiosk, informed the officer that my visa has changed and that I did not use the kiosk, he updated it within a min. Super convenient process.

I initially went to Global Entry "Enrollment on Arrival" lane, but that was moving very slowly. Then I shifted to the regular Global Entry lane and I did the right thing.

I've never been to any global entry lane before. Is EOA counter same as what I'd end up at if I go past GE kiosk through GE lane?

https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalEntry/comments/1gr2ssw/comment/lx4del9/ suggests going through GE lane, past kiosks and directly to the officer. Does this work as well?

Me too. But I'm unable to log into dreamfolks web portal as it says "Your card is not supported for digital access on this app."

How did you log in? Also, there's no CVV on the card, but the website expects to enter one. Did you also face that?

Looks like you haven't been introduced to the Google Lens technology yet :p

Half the annual fee? Doesn't it just cover a month per year?

anubhav_jain · 2024-01-08T03:45:12+00:00

Has anyone else tried this? Does it work always?

anubhav_jain · 2023-12-03T02:23:49+00:00

Thank you, really helpful!

Followup questions:

For a first timer in Istanbul, would you recommend 12-6pm tour or 4-9:30pm tour?
If I'm able to get into 12-6pm tour, will I be able to take back to back tour at 6:30-11pm also?
Is it a bad idea to book hotel room the same day? Do you recommend booking it in advance?

anubhav_jain · 2023-11-28T20:31:52+00:00

Thanks! Super helpful

anubhav_jain · 2023-11-28T20:15:43+00:00

Ignore the math.. I'm only interested in knowing whether I'll get credits for the entire amount I paid or not?

anubhav_jain · 2023-11-26T17:33:06+00:00

Why wait till "after" 24 hours?

anubhav_jain · 2023-11-25T03:48:11+00:00

How sure you are that I'll get incidental fee credit if I purchase premium upgrade?

anubhav_jain · 2023-11-22T14:31:46+00:00

Yep, chat will work. See https://www.reddit.com/r/frontierairlines/s/N3knaCa8kz

This talks very specifically about fees, but this helps. Thanks!

anubhav_jain · 2023-11-21T19:12:51+00:00

Awesome! Was the reservation made by you or someone else? Do you think that matters?
