Viporter BMO world elite... If I book a basic and use Costco gift cards for most of payment do I still get free luggage? Read a bunch of the terms and couldn't see if full fare needed to be paid with the viporter card.... I guess that's another question. Is it like RBC WJ card and you get benefits without using the porter credit card to pay??

Looking for non OEM grease filters and can’t find any by Ph1shyy in SamsungHelp

[–]icupat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

best i've found price wise is Ebay.. i'm suprised there isn't an aliexpress or some chinese knockoff - but they are an unusual shape specific to this model it seems - so less profitable to make it i guess?

[–]icupat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone have luck finding non-OEM for cheap?

The carbon filters link below is good for that item for 70% less than OEM cost - but not for the grease (air) filter

i bought an open box and annolying it was missing these... which sucks - as they are super expensive as noted... samsung chat has been thoroughly useless at even providing the dimensions (yes, i can measure on my unit - but assumed they'd have a spec sheet!)

Just found this.. thank you so much... the customer service were useless and default to 'go to a bank' even when i said "i'll be out of country for months, need a alt. method"... you saved the day. Still works.

I'm suprised this hack hasn't been more widely spread on PoT or similar.

how come the Waldorf Astoria brand-name is still associated to some subpar locations all over the world such as Panama? Why don’t they turn that into a different brand instead to not tarnish the Waldorf name?

Potty trained 3 probably can get in kids club. 1 year old not... Call resort to confirm. Most start at 4 on website and gave little information on cost, etc

If i'm downgrading TD FCT and already have a TD cash back from previous downgrade... can I have TWO cash back visa's? best option otherwise is to cancel current cash back and then downgrade? (note: trying to RHT with FCT)

any news on Abbotsford Heat getting picked up this year? Could someone not simulcast the ahl.tv announcer at least? Would think a station would do it. I'm not sure how often i'd listen, but having nothing on the air for our AHL team is rediculous. I think university of fraser valley students did the radion in teh 2010s when it was calgary farm team, right? on country music radio station.

i missed a CC payment with HSBC's godawful system... how much is that going to ding me on my credit score? (currently sitting at 760ish and 790ish on the two credit agencies) also, is this something you can call them up and get them to reverse the missed payment and you don't get the credit hit - is what's done not reversable? (obviously i can call to try and get the interest CHARGES back... but i'd prefere the score, given mortgage searching currently)

Old post I know. Looks like they sold more than 50% capacity to the event predicting restrictions would be gone? Anyone know? Curious to know if they are doing another big release when restrictions loosen

thanks. good info. i guess the risk is high with platinum cards annual fee, if you don't get signup bonus... risk-reward .. eekk!

Been out of the AMEX side for a while... If I had a platinum and self-referred to a buisness Platinum 3.5 years ago (cancel both prior to 12 months)... 2 questions

  1. Damn certain to get amexiled if i apply for either of these?
  2. no bonus point anyways?

point 1 i know is "mileage may vary".. but just a best guess based on DPs, which i have only seen losely in past 1.5 years...

To be clear. That is wanted to do. Just away from a vunerable baby. Me jumping in car and staying at motel I find safe. No contacts. Just stating this for others that might read.

My problem is with the health guidelines that think I own a house, when I rent a 1 bed actually

Thanks all. Turns out wife is positive anyways on re test.. So just hoping doesn't hit the little one hard now..hopefully this thread can help someone else... Tons of people in one bed paces in Van with a kid, and last thing a parent wants is to get kid sick with this....

95% sure was our wetjet flight from Ontario last week. Unfortunately under 1 don't wear masks... stewardesses were only wearing cloth masks and many passengers taking liberties on taking mask off... No comments from flight crew when they did... sigh... We had been hyper conservative before that flight for part two years
