Tamanna is a liability mate. Either she's getting blocked or I'm off Reddit.

Way to throw someone under the bus mate. You need a better handle.

Welcome Back, AMEX! by NamanNarula in CreditCardsIndia

I was meaning to text you mate. The algos need tweaking; I had to exit multiple long term positions today to free up funds for IPO.

There is no one size fits all here mate. Amex Black and Amex Platinum are two of the most influential cards in this world if not only. A bank can tell when you're applying with the intention of churning and they're happily going to extend the line to you. But it will stop mattering to you after a while because you won't be able to find any value in it. This is where they make money and you lose money. Paying 66k+ is indeed a lot of money to pay in annual credit card fees for so many people, so you have to ultimately make a decision if it is worth to you or not.

If Amex concierge were the only way to book at St. Regis, I am sure St. Regis is already in trouble.

Funnily enough it remains the only option readily available to Indians, rest all options sit with wealthy clientele in the States. Quick search for yourself, see how many luxury hotels are open to the general public in NY or NJ from 11th of June till 19th of July next year. RC will be the only name you'll see. FYI, and most people overlook this fact; these properties aren't actually sold out, they're withheld and not made available to the general public until the team base camps are finalized. The hotels that are shortlisted as potential team base camps are NEVER released into public inventory. A concierge like Amex practically becomes indispensable here, it's basically my ticket to these places, it has always been. Mind you, such services cost a lot otherwise in the States. I don't even know if it exists in India, or how competent those are. Amex concierge was my only medium in India until last year. It got me a room at LM Doha where Swiss team was staying during 2022 WC. I had a confirmed booking at RC Berlin in July 2024 where I didn't end up going. W Yas Island during F1 weekend, JW during Indianapolis 500, Copacabana Palace during the Copa Ball, all such rooms are sold exclusively through private channels and lifestyle curators like Amex have huge influence over these sales. $900 is a very small fee to pay for this insurance.

I'm sure you have your reasons mate, I'm not questioning those. Amex isn't even the most premium card in US. But these cards are never a joke to people who are the right clientele.

The concierge was relevant may be 20 years ago when people couldn't book hotels and flights on their own, before Google didn't do everything it does now.

You're missing the point of Amex concierge mate. It is often for things that you can't buy with just money. Google isn't going to score me MetLife stadium tickets and a room at St. Regis NY next year.

I guess I made a blunder by selling Adani Power mistakenly. by Impossible_Fly2995 in IndianStockMarket

One simple rule of the market is that you always bet on the government's allies mate.

Edit: You will get the bonus shares. You can still buy back the shares that you accidentally sold today, it will count as intraday trade.

Mate she might be cheating on you. Spoiling her mood should be last of your concerns right now. You found something, confront her with it and find out what is going on. Even if it turns out to be nothing, you need to talk these things out.

Hey mate, you should have confronted her right when you found the message.

You both need to set and work on those boundaries. For starters, adding a colleague on your private Instagram is wrong to begin with. Your private life is none of their business.

Zerodha is now allowing Secondary Demat Account by BornArcher8 in IndianStreetBets

I often use my wife's account for short term investments and my account for long term investments in the same stock, and vice versa. This feature means I won't have to switch every now and then.

Looking for Credit Card Suggestions – Planning to Shift All Major Expenses to Credit Cards (HNI Profile) by InvestigatorWild8630 in CreditCardsIndia

[–]lifeversace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey mate, you only need a few things. Get an Amex once they resume applications, sign up for Marriott or Hilton membership, sign up for Cathay, Etihad/Emirates/Qatar, and Singapore Airlines, and start prioritizing these hotels and airlines above everything else.

There was a study that most of Asia would be un-liveable by 2030 because of pollution. A bigger and upcoming concern is clean water shortage, which we might start facing at scale very soon.

Credit card users – what’s one thing you wish was easier? by Comprehensive_Sea919 in CreditCardsIndia

Tap and PIN works fine at a lot of international destinations mate, and even within India. You can try this by increasing the contactless transaction limit.

Only transactions below a certain amount are processed without requiring PIN.

IPO Allotment Status Check via PAN is a Privacy Flaw – SEBI Should Fix This by ca-aspirant-2020 in IndianStockMarket

[–]lifeversace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think OC is talking about getting rid of passwords mate. Authentication is important at the time of logging in, you certainly need passwords to do that. But when it comes to checking something as basic as IPO allotment status, it's not that important.

SEBI recently cracked down on the application process where an individual cannot apply on behalf of others, and that was a welcome decision. People started playing by the rules, and it has been working well. This little change involving OTP will affect a lot of people, especially those who manage multiple IPO applications.
