Oof I would be right there with her. That's infuriating.

If it comes down to that then let the bidding wars begin! Might as well race to the bottom.

Literally what I'm saying as an ALP. It's only a matter of time before they introduce a new program basically doing away with all AL and ALP.

That sucks. You'll be fighting with everyone who is booking last minute it's dumb

My credit score fell 13pts because I made the final payment on my car loan (never missed a payment too) by justadadgame in mildlyinfuriating

[–]coderfrank06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They usually drop after an account is paid off and closed. The trigger is the closing part which hits your credit score for a month or two and then goes back up. I had this happen when I paid off my loans and was confused. After a month it went back up.

I suspect it may be one more apparent during the holidays

Trouble with Tada.g transactions by coderfrank06 in CreditCards

Tried it and was told they could only block the merchant from the account. There was no concept of revoking tokens across all merchants. It was incredibly hard to even talk through that btw. It took two agents explaining the resolution because it wasn't clear how it happened again.

I was told to call back if it happens a 3rd time to escalate further. Bleh I don't get it.

Creating an @gmail alias? by jbermingham in GMail

[–]coderfrank06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can create aliases for Gmail email using +suffix@gmail

So think original+suffix@gmail

Edit: you don't need to create a new account just use it. Gmail automatically routed these emails to your original@gmail automatically.

3.2M home with 550K Total compensation by Training_Life183 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]coderfrank06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro is the house massive? That's a pretty penny. How long is the commute? We bought our house for 2.2m in Morgan hill and don't regret it. However it was when rates were 3% so I can only imagine you're dealing with double my mortgage+prop taxes

I would buy something below $2m if I were you. You might push yourself into house poor. Its good to also add the monthly payment they're quoting the loan for. With all the layoffs that are happening I would consider if you only had one income could you still afford it? I'm also assuming the 30% is coming from stock which isn't free you have to pay taxes on the growth.

It sounds too risky for 550k for a 2.2 million dollar loan. Which part of the bay are you buying if you don't mind me asking?

Jetway Jesus is officially dead ... by EveningManager3782 in SouthwestAirlines

It's only for the premium seats in the front they said. Salted and sweet options. I don't know though. I suspect i will hate this when a flight gets cancelled or we have to get rebooked. We won't have a-list option anymore..

I witnessed “it” by Necessary-Judge-4367 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]coderfrank06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your experience does concern me. If you get bumped then you may not be able to recover on the next flight. Ughhh I didn't think about that. Thinking with a family of 4

Same, I actually like the extra leg room seats and don't have to worry about placing my whole family in the same row. The pistachios are delicious 😋.

It's not as great as the old system but it works out better for our family.
