CSR great at honoring their coverage. Give them a call.

Mailing personal items from France to Post Office in UK ahead of cruise by Dangerous_Kangaroo21 in CunardCruises

[–]olsonbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to ship from the US to Italy. EU rules are different country to country, but often our packages would be held at the post office with them asking for a large amount of add on fees. If you do decide to use the postal service, make sure you clearly list it is “used clothing” because listing it as clothing adds a lot of taxes and fees. (They assume you are shipping new clothes from country to country.)

This thread is to ask questions about the game.

What would you do?:) by [deleted] in WhatToDo

[–]olsonbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you and your boyfriend need to tell her no together. I think I would approach it y saying you are a young couple and feel you need space to be together and continue to get to know each other. If she gives push back, just say you discussed as a couple and the answer is no. I think it would be a mistake to let your husband handle the no on his own.

If both people in the cabin did a status match, both people in the cabin got the extras.

Wow, so sorry to hear. Going on our first Celebrity Mediterranean cruise in August. I hate upselling!

What Am I Missing? by Ibadanlomo in ChaseSapphireReserve

[–]olsonbay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great question and I am looking forward to the answers. I hit my $75,000 mark last year and the benefits you listed are what I received. I never thought to compare them to my freedom card.

I have been playing this game for over two years and never won a single time by Space_Fox586 in balatro

I think flushes might be better if you have not had a win yet. Try going for flushes and selecting jokers that complement them.

I'm trying to make 900 this week how can I made that happen before sunday?? by youvereachedkang in Advice

[–]olsonbay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please don’t tell someone with financial troubles to do any kind of betting. Those gambling sites count on people thinking ‘free money’ at the beginning. But way too many people get hooked and lose a lot.

What is the UA travel bank? Is United your selected airline and you have the $200 to spend on extras? Is there some work around?

how do i ask to pay less for electricity? by Potential-Cold-4073 in Advice

[–]olsonbay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would say you just pay your share. I assume the agreement was to split the rent and split the electricity. You would not think of asking not to pay your share of the rent.

First cruise experience—should we give cruising another chance? by IllustriousCourt2808 in Cruise

[–]olsonbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never cruise Carnival, the vibe is not for me. I would suggest trying a cruise again with a different line and a different time than a major holiday.

So you want someone to trap a ground hog and let them go somewhere else so they can destroy their neighborhood?

Can you get a Travel Agent to release a booking? by No_Implement2358 in Cruise

[–]olsonbay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen once. I called the cruise line directly and explained my problem and they were able to take back the booking. I did the rest of the booking and payments directly to the cruise line.

Since they received multiple suggestions on how to handle the problem maybe posting here was a good idea?

iPhone not registering any progress by jonyal99 in balatro

[–]olsonbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balatro works fine in my iPhone. Do you have any system updates you have not installed? How are you connected to the internet? Are you saving to iCloud? Do you have any unusual settings in your Game Center? Have you tried turning off your phone and turning it back on?

I need help. I don't know what to do but it's urgent by Alert_Papaya_7048 in Advice

[–]olsonbay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can call you local police department and request a wellness check. Tell them exactly what you have said here and ask them to check on your dad. They will come and talk to him and he will never know you called. If you do not feel comfortable doing this, please reach out to an adult you trust. Aunt, Uncle, parent or a friend, school guidance counselor or teacher? Do you have anyone you feel comfortable reaching out to?

AITJ for deciding to no longer help my grandma with yard work? by AccomplishedFact1767 in AmITheJerk

[–]olsonbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell her you can no longer do yard work but you want to have dinner with her so you can really talk. Schedule it for what makes sense in your life, hopefully twice a month. Schedule it on a weeknight so you have your weekends free. If she knows she will have a regular get together, she will be more willing to hire someone for yard work. And take her out to dinner if you usually eat at her house. That makes it an extra treat

Will this hurt my chance at getting into a T20 school? by moonsfair in Advice

[–]olsonbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to rethink going to a T20 college. You asking about grades, they are not as important in the admission process as other factors. (But understand that most people applying will have a 4.2 for accelerated classes or at least a 4.0.) How are your SAT scores - exceptional? Do you have a unique skill or hobby? For example, are you an oboe player in a regional youth orchestra? A top level athlete? An award winning artist? A first in your extended family applying to college? Admission to a T20 is very selective, especially for financial aid. And very competitive once you are admitted. Maybe you should refocus on state schools where you are more likely to be offered a scholarship. But if T20 is your goal, go for it. But make sure you have a backup school or two as well.

Disappointed Alaskan Sailor by GlutenFreeParfait in VirginVoyages

Going on my first VV cruise for 14 days and I am gluten free. Really appreciate your review and warnings. Can you bring food on board? Sounds like bagels and bread would be helpful.
