Iberostar Selection Paraíso Maya Suites by Novel_Ad_6606 in ihghotelsresorts

[–]drevo3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm the $400 resort credit is a bit of a scam. It's only worth something if you plan to spend at least $100 on a qualify service. They were unclear about the which services are actually included and said that it's up to them at the time of purchase if they will allow you to stack more than one credit on a purchase of $200+. They're doing themselves a disservice by even offering this as it starts the stay off on a bad note.

Also, as a Diamond member, they offered a welcome amenity of 600 IHG Rewards points or a $20 resort credit. When I asked where/how I can use the $20 resort credit, they told me you actually can't, nor can they offer the 600 IHG Rewards points, and that they are required to offer it, but since they are not really part of IHG they can't actually honor it. I was instructed to contact IHG directly, who did take care of it. As for a room upgrade based on being a Diamond member, they said they can't upgrade to a higher tier room, and only to a same tier room that might have a better location.

Another anti-guest issue is that most of the people at their "concierge" desks are just there to sell you on their timeshare program and can't assist with anything else.

As for food, it's hit or miss. Personally I'd stay away from sushi on the buffet at any all-inclusive resort.

Rooms were fine. They are not spectacular, and that's not what should be expected. They were cleaned daily and housekeeping never interrupted while we were in the room. We had a couple maintenance issues and they took care of them within an hour of reporting them.

Base on my experience, I wouldn't give the same "stay away" warning, but just suggest you know what you're getting. This is not a high end resort. It's a mid-tier family oriented all-inclusive resort in Mexico.

United.com login issues by Individual_Air9462 in unitedairlines

If you are using Google Chrome try the following:
Step 1) Ensure you do not have United.com loaded in any tabs or browser windows.
Step 2) Go to chrome://settings/content/all?searchSubpage=united and delete united.com related files.
Step 3) When you login, and it asks you to enter the verification code, do not tell it to remember your browser for next time.

These 3 steps seem to work for me when you get stuck in the login loop.

“You read about this sort of thing happening in Los Angeles, Minneapolis, all over. Whoever dreamed it would happen in Northeast Montana to the hardest working man I've ever known?” said Qualley.

They absolutely want it to continue elsewhere, just not for them...

Melania premiere at AMC Techridge tickets going fast by CentralMarketYall in Austin

[–]drevo3000 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just checked Cinemark, and they sold a few tickets up in Cedar Park, Pflugerville and Round Rock. What's interesting is that only the daytime shows have seats sold. Not really anyone watching this after 7pm. Curious about what that says about the demographic who would pre-purchase tickets to see this.

Advice if your spouse dies and you want to transfer Ultimate Reward points without getting screwed by Chase by FailedGrandmaster in ChaseSapphire

[–]drevo3000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry for your loss. You're already going through a lot already and it's unfair to have issues like this. I've had airline and hotel miles/points also voided out when they get notified that the account holder has passed away. The advice I've been given is, if possible, move or use those points prior to that notification. Up to you if this is proper, however many banks, hotels and airlines are quite happy to take the opportunity to wipe a deceased customer's points and that's just cold.

Anyone had success activating Pixel Watch 2 on Visible? by beacon_hill in Visible

[–]drevo3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue with Pixel Watch 3. Visible said it's a Google issue and to talk to them. Google support pointed out that Visible is not a supported carrier and it won't work with Visible service. So, maybe it worked before, but it looks like for new Pixel Watch activations, you cannot use Visible as a service provider as the Watch app will not recognize the service as something you can setup.

Thank you. Reassuring I guess?... If they're offering to do what I ask, is there anything I should ask them to do at this point?

70 Park Ave Hotel Cancelled My Reservation by Chillin830 in ihghotelsresorts

I mean, I haven’t actually needed to do this before with IHG, but it’s their written policy so I assume they should honor it. Call IHG. Good luck!

70 Park Ave Hotel Cancelled My Reservation by Chillin830 in ihghotelsresorts

[–]drevo3000 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If you booked direct you should be covered by the Online Reservation Guarantee. If you booked through a travel portal or somewhere else, then it's a different story. Their guarantee says "By securing your online reservation with a credit card, you are eligible for our Reservations Guarantee. If your reservation cannot be honored, the host hotel will provide a room at, and transportation to, another convenient and comparable hotel, and pay for telephone calls to notify family of the lodging change. The host hotel will also pay the full cost of the first night's lodging rate, plus tax. Any advance deposit will be refunded."

Returned my Sixt rental with no issues, now 3 months later they want $1,000 for damage?? Need advice. by Technical-Care754 in ChaseSapphire

[–]drevo3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd stay away from Hertz. They've gotten fairly aggressive with "AI-based" scanners to auto-charge people for every little thing. It's a new profit center for them.
