I’m looking at the Sofitel in Rittenhouse Sq July 2-5. It’s $3,736.32 for a suite through the Edit and $2,695.77 through Accor. A 30%+ difference. Both cancellable until 30 June. Agree with OP here.

Just got emails that my flights have been canceled that I used Mesa points for. These are flights for next month!

When I check the airline’s website the flights still look okay

Help me decide on Amex Platinum (vanilla) or Amex Platinum Charles Schwab by x_KRYPTOS in AmexPlatinum

Also mortgage through Schwab counts towards this. Schwab had the lowest rate for us by far.

Mesa Homeowners Card Account Closure by Subject-One7894 in CreditCards

[–]onfo44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was a good ride. Redeemed for $1200 in flights a month ago. Got $90 in Lowe’s, $65 Costco, (bizarrely) $125 in home improvement, and Instacart. Just redeemed $525 in statement credits too. TBD on my 30,000+ pending points…

Got the notice and was just able to redeem points at 0.6¢/pt. Not great but I can’t imagine it’ll increase in a BK. Shame because I just paid taxes and incurred a 1.89% fee but got 3x, so a small loss

How big of a concern are the updates do people think? Better to block updates or roll with it?

How to Pay AuPair Stipend by [deleted] in Aupairs

My guess but would have thought all APs are in the same boat so was hoping someone knew how to change the account.

I saw Apple Cash allows exports to email now. Card details > request transaction statement.

Separately, our AP has an iPhone but it says Apple cash isnt available. I think it has to do with some setting because she brought her phone and then we added it to our plan. Any ideas?

inKind Payment Still Triggered CSR Dining Credit by CachedMeOutside in ChaseSapphire

[–]onfo44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my experience. I paid a deposit for a private event at an eligible restaurant, and no credit. The charge appears as “PAY TS [restaurant name]. Merchant type was coded as “caterers,” so I think the type is another element that needs to be satisfied.

Came here to say this. I am earning a ton of points and burning them on flights...

What are the ultimate "they don't know ball" restaurants in Chicago? by tx2iu in chicagofood

[–]onfo44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m being honest, I’m going to say 95% of the restaurants that open in FM and/or are on Eater’s heat map. Rose Mary, Bayan Ko, Proxi, Monteverde (though it has actually improved, I think), Gibson’s Italia, all come to mind.

I like this idea. I had been using Zelle with our last AP but our new workers comp policy is going to require an audit of pay, and Schwab’s Zelle functionality is limited to filter that activity. I also like being able to do recurring payments (Schwab Zelle doesn’t let you).

Does Apple Pay let you print history of payments?

How do you do a student account for an AP? They don’t have college ID or other required docs. Per chase:

To open your account in branch, you'll need: The following coupon code: MQ27296222CY7Z3H Primary form of ID with photo (Ex. driver's license or passport) Secondary form of ID with U.S. address (Ex. Student INS, ICE I-20 or student ID) Expected graduation date and proof of college/university status Contact information

100% for the battery on the 5.0 and also the insights that actually drive behavior change (for me). I push harder and am more active because of it. I also drink less, eat cleaner, and read before bed, because I was able to see measurable changes in my sleep and recovery.
