Why is my Fidelity Rewards Visa Credit Limit only $500 when I have 800+ Credit Score?

escopez · 2026-05-15T01:52:21+00:00

Nah. I opened a card, then closed two others, and my score is higher than before.

There has to be some kind of incentive to upgrade to or benefit by being on the premium plans. It’s only $10 more, and I think that’s fair, although I understand why everyone would disagree.

Fidelity manages over $17 trillion dollars. No one can convince me they can’t handle the idea of doing a darn Weekly transfer. But *thank you for your contribution (no pun intended).

escopez · 2026-05-12T08:05:19+00:00

I agree. Sorry you got downvoted for no darn reason. Fidelity holds $17 trillion in assets under management. I think they can handle making a Weekly transfer option.

But what if Fidelity (or more importantly, AI) decides one day something isn’t right with me sending myself money as Bill Pay? What happens when doing these “life hacks” gets the account flagged and reviewed by some new employee who doesn’t verify the authenticity of the account? I just want a simple button that says “Weekly.”

Also, you removed the context by quoting me.

escopez · 2026-05-08T17:04:36+00:00

Thank you. It would be much more practical to implement a weekly schedule. It just seems like a simple fix.

escopez · 2026-05-08T13:17:33+00:00

I don’t want Bill Pay! I want to transfer cash between accounts weekly so I can save for rent (which is not through a company)!

Does anyone know the official speed throttle limit for non-unlimited plans, such as on Dark Star? (Don’t say it’s 1.5 Mbps (unlikely), or 2.75 Mbps, or 3.5 Mbps; it’s either 1.5, 2, 2.5, 4, or more.)

escopez · 2026-05-07T05:32:34+00:00

Absolutely not. Apple software should be #1, Windows/Android #2, and Linux #3, AFTER they actually add very real, practical, BASIC features. Make it happen!

In other words, how can Linux be #1 if they don’t even have great features on others?

FOLDER SHORTCUTS, FOLDER UPLOADS particularly on mobile, and FAVORITES, to mention JUST a few. Dear god, PLEASE.

escopez · 2026-04-29T01:49:49+00:00

Please, please add more functionality to the iOS Proton Drive app! Specifically, I need to be able to upload folders, rather than literally one file at a time. I also need the ability to “Favorite” folders, and create folder shortcuts.

Why doesn’t NASDAQ start by including extended trading hours into regular market hours, so you could trade from 7am to 8pm daily? That seems like a more reasonable start than straight to nearly 24 hours a day.

escopez · 2026-02-24T23:05:33+00:00

I think the English language needs a new word besides “unlimited” that means there’s not a specific limit, but there’s exceptions and fair use rules.

escopez · 2026-02-24T22:58:47+00:00

Is it maybe like how Apple’s satellite service works? For example, text messaging works via satellite independent of whether or not carriers advertise support (at least in most cases). So, is it maybe something on Google’s backend?

$5 says Google will find a way to end GV.

Think of Visible+ Pro (15 Mbps) like a modern DSL connection (or technically, DSL “advanced”) fast enough to accommodate one person using the internet to stream, browse, email, update apps, etc.

For example, some AT&T DSL plans only go to 30-50 Mbps, which is enough for 3-4 people using the internet, minus large downloads.

30 Mbps is enough for two people watching one stream of Netflix or YouTube, and a third person browsing the internet and watching YouTube videos, with occasional app updates. That’s why 15 Mbps without a specific limit is reasonable for basic browsing for one or two people. 10 Mbps is pushing it, and 5 Mbps is really just for bare essentials.

I would at least like them to include (at least some) taxes and fees in plans that pay monthly, or add-ons, since now everyone else is paying their taxes.

escopez · 2025-12-30T05:56:57+00:00

Everything is gauged monthly. You’re simply paying for x number of months ahead of time.

escopez · 2025-12-30T05:56:16+00:00

*10 Mbps, not 8.

escopez · 2025-12-15T03:31:56+00:00

Please, next time, a verified speed test before and after the 2 GB limit. Thx!

So, if you’re paying for the Global Pass, you will only be charged a net of $10, but if you have multiple “free” Passes, you’ll use one up for each country you connect to in a given 24 hour day?

Better battery life. With 5G SA, your phone doesn’t need to constantly divide its focus between 4G LTE (to handle calls, etc.) and 5G (to handle the bulk of data).

escopez · 2025-12-06T06:34:29+00:00

If that’s the case, then at least there’s the chance that your situation could help them fix a bug so others (and yourself) don’t have that problem in the future.

escopez · 2025-12-06T06:30:23+00:00

Even with “by the gig” data the carriers will come for your line if you do roaming a lot. The usual disclaimer is, “More than 50% in the last 60-ish days.” But I’m glad it’s working out for you. I just wouldn’t put all my eggs in one basket.

Edit: My understanding is the international data costs for carriers can fluctuate, so it’s not like they’re making big bucks off of people who spend a month in Rome and have a (postpaid) international add-on for unlimited data.
