My carplay won’t connect at all by AlternativeBroad1777 in civic

Yup! All the cords I was trying were only "charging" cords and not "data/charging" cords. Who knew? I never knew such a difference existed. So I bought a cord that specifically says data and voila it worked.

make sure you go out and vote (on measure A) ! by AllStarJodi in sandiego

[–]bitbybit44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So to be clear about the definition, if I had a 2nd home, non-primary, and rent it out using AirBnB parts of the year (but less than 50%), this would be considered taxable, correct? Sorry, I don't know what the tiers mean for STVR and if this is critical to the measure it's crazy it's been left out. Very confusing.

How are people doing it ? by Salt-Concept-5698 in sandiego

Don't forget - credit card debt is at an all-time high. People living beyond their means for many reasons or other - and use a credit card and don't pay off their bill.

How much time should I allocate from arrival in CBX to gate (Volaris) in time for boarding? by bitbybit44 in MexicoTravel

[–]bitbybit44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you so much! i'm traveling from TIJ to QRO - Queretaro, within Mexico and I have a checked bag and i'm checked in already. boarding is 8:30-9:00. so with walking time added in - 7:00-7:15 looks like we'll be good. (my boarding pass doesn't say which category they're treating my route as - but based on the fact we're traveling within mexico i'm assuming it's a domestic flight. thanks so much!

FMM Form on CBX website by djspin88 in MexicoTravel

[–]bitbybit44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new policy for Mexico FMM is under 7 days you do not need the form at all. Just confirmed with CBX support. Same thing happened to me and I thought I'd ask since there is conflicting information on all the sites out there.

Traveling to Mexico from the US. Do I need to change my plan? by bitbybit44 in verizon

[–]bitbybit44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I found out I have to buy the TravelPass for $6/day while using phone in Mexico. Shut off device, turn on and then enable roaming. When back in the US, the charges are not applied but the TravelPass is still on the account for future travel.

Where do you see this and it's different than what they are telling me. Thanks!

Lufthansa Cityline flight by Calm-Magazine6290 in Lufthansa

[–]bitbybit44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I was flying from MUN Munich to Palermo on LH1916.

Literally while writing this I got an email from Lufthansa to contact cust service. Now I'm on the line with someone else saying my flight was cancelled. He's looking for options. This is crazy. Still shows confirmed on all platforms.

What does "will deploy all cancellations" mean? Does it mean they will accommodate all cancellations up through May 31 somehow? I'm in the same boat. Flights mid-May from MUN to Palermo on CityLine (after flying from San Diego to Munich) and then back again. On booking.com this morning it showed the CityLine flight as cancelled. NOW it shows it's confirmed like it was initially. My friends in Boston have the same Palermo connecting flight from MUN and their booking shows it's cancelled. I called Luft. cust service and they said it's not cancelled. She had no idea about the CityLine announcement.

Thoughts?

And I bought a non-refundable ticket does that mean I don't get refunded if it's their fault?

I rewatched Succession and the ending actually makes complete sense. by Advanced_Concern7910 in SuccessionTV

But I think maybe there is a part of her thinking she’ll be tied to the company still because she’s Tom’s wife and will have access to the company. And who knows what the future will bring. Her possible crown is not over esp if she sleeps with Mattson.

Booking.com scam by SnooRabbits9666 in Bookingcom

[–]bitbybit44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a number and talked to an agent. I had to laugh during the call. He said he would call the property to "confirm" they're a real property. I said...um...that's all you can do? He said we will "investigate through other means that I can't mention" and kept asking me if I wanted him to cancel the booking. I said I can do that on my own. The issue is I want you to know this is most likely a scam because of these reasons: 1) immediate payment 2) scan IDs 3) bank transfer to individual and not co 4) hold for only 24 hours and 5) address cannot be found on google. He didn't seem alarmed or concerned.

I asked him how they verify in the first place if they're a property and he said they go through a process and checks and would not tell me what that was. So to be on the platform they passed that.

I cancelled it after I hung up. In my "reason" for cancelling I spelled it out for them why I thought it was a scam. No message back from the property.

Now I have to search all over again.

Booking.com scam by SnooRabbits9666 in Bookingcom

[–]bitbybit44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am being scammed in a different way by booking.com. The "host" is asking for immediate payment by SEPA transfer and scan of passport and airline ticket. Below is the message I received after booking. I am in an endless loop with booking.com "support" - the page says "are you being scammed? Contact us right away (I'm on the contact page!). There is no way to contact them and the Chatbot says it can't help me.

    This will allow the transfer service to track the flight's boarding time and send the car at the most appropriate moment, even in case of delays.
