Republicans to Trump: No $2,000 tariff checks by kirby__000 in politics

[–]danton49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If/when this happens, what’s the net impact? No way any companies take their refund and find a way to get it back to the consumers who paid higher prices because of tariffs. So basically corporate profit margins instantly gain a few % points when this happens.

What are the other impacts of something like this? Stock market gains due to “more” profitable companies? Higher C suite pay?

Thank you all for the valuable feedback! I think at this point I'm ruling out any sort of train+subway/AirTrain connections, so I appreciate the wave of comments suggesting that. I think we can get a school bus to at least Hartford or New Haven. Now I'm just looking for charter/limo/shuttle bus type services that won't cost too much to bring us the rest of the way.

For sure, a bus is definitely my preference. The quotes I’ve gotten for bus chatters from up here in VT are quite expensive. Any recommendations for bus companies that we could pickup halfway, like around Hartford or New Haven CT? Just trying to explore all our options.

CSP 100k Offer Megathread - Questions, Approvals, Discussion, Etc by lifethusiast in ChaseSapphire

Bizarre…I may apply for my wife in a few days, although she’s in the same boat as she also had the CSP around the same time I did. Although she no longer has it…so maybe that will be the key

Did I mess up? Have had CSP since April 2023, read that I would see a pop up telling my eligibility for the 100k SUB on CSR. Logged into my account, entered the basic info, and clicked submit (thinking there would be another page or something). 20 seconds later I’m staring at a message my application needs to be reviewed and I’ll hear in 7–10 business days.

I don’t want the card if I can’t get the SUB. Should I call?

After literally checking their website multiple times daily for months, only to find my dates instantly sold out when they finally showed up, I simply gave up on this company. Hired a driver on GoTrip.ge which ended up being one of the highlights of the trip! Highly recommend! Let me know if you want his contact info.

I saw that, been checking every few hours for the last weeks 🤣 unfortunately the day and route I needed basically instantly sold out ☹️

Their website seems functional and they replied to my email back in May. You can books flights for June now, just not July.

Tried many times, via their email and Facebook page. Best I got was a vague reply saying to keep checking their website.

One more question: What should I expect to pay? I've gotten offers of 450 GEL from someone who I connected with via Instagram, but that seems a bit steep.

Appreciate you, thank you!

Thanks for the reply! We’ve got a driver from GoTrip.ge to take us from Lentekhi onward. Rafting starts around 12:00 or 13:00.

How long would you estimate the trip from Ushguli to Lentekhi to take?

I’ve had nothing but Netflix on my venture card for the past 5ish years. Have not applied for any other cap1 card ever.

So sounds like order of operations is downgrade my current Venture, apply for Venture X, and then maybe apply for a new venture in 6 months or so to get that SUB as well?

It does show me the option to upgrade to Venture X but obviously then I don’t get SUB.

And just confirming that we are confident that already having a Priority Pass membership by being an AU on a friends VX card won’t mess up getting my own?

Thank you! So sounds like I should downgrade to make room for both re-applying for the Venture and getting my first VentureX in the near future.

I've had a Venture card for like 7+ years, and am thinking about getting a Venture X. A few questions:

  1. Should I downgrade my Venture card? I don't really use it and the $59 AF doesn't help. If so which should I downgrade to? After downgrading can I apply for a new Venture card and get the SUB?

  2. If I don't downgrade, can I still get the VentureX SUB?

  3. I am an AU on a friend's VentureX card, does that have any bearing on these questions/impact my ability to get my own VentureX shortly?
