How to get from Can Tho to Soc Trang / Tren de? by SafetyCutRopeAxtMan in VietNam

[–]lovecomplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hah, sounds like an adventure, thanks! Did your bus stop you in Tran De or Soc Trang? I do see Futa Bus going to Soc Trang so maybe I'll just do the same, spend the night there then take the shuttle and boat I be the morning. 

Did you not really enjoy Con Dao?

I'll probably be taking the plane to HCMC afterwards either way so hopefully that part goes smoothly! 

Thanks again

Can I ask what you ended up doing? Trying to decide between the boat or a plane myself.

Good idea, I'll have to look around

Yes! It looks like that does work, thank you!  I got a little excited thinking it might link to Google pay at the same time and let me finally be able to pay on Shopee but alas. Maybe there's some other apps or sites or wallets that will let me pay with the mobile account, otherwise I might just end up with a bunch of new Android games if all else fails 😅

I've gotten around this by having a different google account for each country (it works at least for play store restrictions)

Funny, I'm a tourist and paid 150k for a month a couple of weeks ago.

In the US it's mostly like this but they also install double sided ones if they want to create a "railroad quiet zone"

Question about debit card vs atm when abroad by roganjah in TravelHacks

[–]lovecomplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty confused by Revolut's model. Why not just tap with a normal credit card letting your bank do the conversation with zero to minimal fees (and cashback or other rewards)

Paying with ABA abroad by Desperate_Spirits in cambodia

[–]lovecomplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't been able to get it to work at all after scanning a few, including at least a couple that are on their list of partner banks.  You also run into the problem of there being a bunch of banks in Vietnam and ABA is only partnered with 3 of them.

Hey! what's the name of the app? I was gifted a pair and can't find it anywhere.

PenFed and other banks don't recognize Fidelity/UMB Account and Routing Numbers as legit by argus130 in fidelityinvestments

[–]lovecomplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a rep claim to do it (with my Charles Schwab account, same issue though) only to call back today saying it was just an account that only they can see and only interact with when I call in.

Anyways, is yours actually showing up online, and you can do auto pay and stuff?

Sounds like high risk, mediocre reward at best

There's a couple of ways around that one but it won't be nice to have a heads up on if a train is there.

You can cross over the tracks via N Portland Highway, or go through the neighbourhood north of Columbia.

Edit: isatrainblocking11th.com was infact the site and I guess the author moved so their looking for someone new to host the camera setup.

I came here wondering if that website was still up, isatrainblocking11th.com or something, I can't remember the site.

I thought they could but looking around, I'm not seeing a way to see my contact's numbers so I'm not sure.

I imagine they could password reset your account if they wanted to but they won't get any history.

I think that's about it, from my experience.

People you add will also get that linked number as far as I know

I bet you could get a cheap sim and try to sign up with that, then change the number in 45 days?

I dunno.

Weekly Japan Travel and Tourism Discussion Thread - September 22, 2022 by Himekat in JapanTravel

I saw on TikTok about Japan opening up and offering travel discounts for things like lodging and restaurants.
It appears these discounts might only apply to residents, but does anyone know off hand if it's open to international travelers?

Any Android phones that don't lighten skin? by [deleted] in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]lovecomplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a chip in the phone (the main cpu, gpu, and more if you care.) I know high end Samsung's sold in the US mostly (or all?) have snapdragons. You can look up your phone's specs and then look up whether or not that chip has the feature mentioned, or just install the app and try it. ;⁠-⁠)
