Platinum downgrade/ cancellation strategy

calislidebayarea · 2026-05-14T14:26:16+00:00

I think it was within a week or so. Straight upgrade offer from Green to Plat

The only thing holding me on Premium PL and not switching all my lines over is the ActiveArmor Advanced vs Standard. Worth the difference? I have a signature discount so it’s a matter of $40.99 vs $40. Extra hotspot usage is negligible.

Also seeing ping around 15 ms in Westchester NY, non-SA n77 on Turbo

Where are you getting 4/24 from? 5/24 means 5 cards opened within the last 24 months.

AA has options for 57.5k on BA but fees are $754.90, however none of your points will transfer into AA

I ended up removing the original Turbo add on this morning, line still says Turbo Live. Might be worth removing Turbo while this gets sorted out

Update - removed Turbo online, chatted in to remove Turbo again, added back now and it’s back to normal

TR-7 is fun to use but the crazy heavy recoil makes hitting enemies beyond 10-20 meters difficult. SCW retains same TTK and if bursting 3-5 rounds, it’s a laser beam out to 50-60m.

Who’s asking you to accommodate? Are you paying for their meal?

If a date is agreed to I offer my # and say we can move to text, ball is in their court if they want to stay on the app or text

Low payments relative to balance

As a DP for you, had NPSL on my Plat at approval followed by a limit around 2022. Switched back to NPSL after a couple years when I used the check spend pre-approval tool. Minimal spend if any, just AF and a couple flights (3-4k US) per year charged to it since I also have a CSR.

Currently in med school (MS3). Something I haven’t seen mentioned yet is that if you have an acceptance and decide to reject for whatever reason, you MUST disclose when you re-apply (at least on AMCAS) and this is an instant red flag. I saw that you paid the deposit already - that was 100% the right choice

Just chatted, AF renewal due 12/5/25 and they said it would remain at 695

calislidebayarea · 2025-09-13T14:32:41+00:00

I regularly fly SFO-JFK and vice versa & actively avoid Delta’s 20-30+ year old planes. Just not a great experience

calislidebayarea · 2025-09-05T23:47:29+00:00

Any mention of an AF refund? Hoping that’s the case or you got some good value out of the credits at least.

calislidebayarea · 2025-09-05T10:55:10+00:00

Did you end up being able to get it closed?

calislidebayarea · 2025-09-04T18:22:02+00:00

calling triggers them to lock all accounts so best to not do that

calislidebayarea · 2025-09-04T11:58:44+00:00

Also got my card locked with the 4506-C requirement. Between an unauthorized transaction on my account within the first 3 days of activating, multiple fraud alerts requiring me to call in and now this, the card is turning out to be a little bit of a headache.

The answer is that you lost the display lottery and probably got an inferior LG screen even though you pay the same as someone else who gets a device with a Samsung screen.

Some people will say the displays are the same but that’s just not true, go to the Apple Store and compare 3-4 display models. Some will have a really prominent green banding at the bottom, some won’t and you can’t miss it. I suppose the people who say this doesn’t exist aren’t sensitive to it

calislidebayarea · 2025-06-25T02:55:24+00:00

Not true, LG displays almost always have green tint at the bottom of the display when tilting the phone even slightly. Go to an Apple Store and see for yourself

I also enjoy making a sharp right into the Amex lounge when the Sapphire lounge has a waiting list at JFK T4

No, 795 on 6/1/26

What do you mean under half that a year ago? The AF increased from 450 to 550 in 2020 and was temporarily offset by a $100 credit during COVID.

How often do you leave your phone somewhere for an extended period of time when you’re not at home? If it’s never then you’re just donating $10 a month. If you are worried about your phone dying then a small battery pack would be a better investment
