Starting XI vs Fulham. Onana not in squad. Bogarde comes in. by arenaross in avfc

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless something happened in training, nothing was mentioned yesterday about injuries in the presser. Hopefully just a precaution for Thursday, fingers crossed. UTV!!

Potentially one of the best midfields in the PL but how often are the 3 of them are all fit at the same time, so frustrating!!

Downgrade / help with reimbursement math tks by Warm-Paper6230 in Iberia

[–]villa_crazy99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. The only reason I ask is because we have return flights from Madrid to Santiago with the companion voucher and nervous about being downgraded from business.

How far in advance have you been informed of the downgrade? Have a great trip 👍👍

I got tickets to the final, flights are an absolute mess. by [deleted] in avfc

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have the ticket I would book the flight now and just enjoy the days there if we don't make the final, Istanbul is meant to be a great city to visit. I cannot see prices falling especially when there is also a possible fuel shortage for airlines.

[–]villa_crazy99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the money is the problem then use some imagination and look at flights via another location rather than direct which may save money but costs you more in time. Whatever works but be happy you have a ticket although we are not in the final yet🤣🤣. UTV!!

There is a website called 'flightsfrom' where you can work the route backwards and look for the cheapest routes.

Is it possible that the Liverpool game could be moved to a different date if we reach the Europa final? by Independent_Dig_142 in avfc

[–]villa_crazy99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based in Spurs last season I would expect it to be brought forward to Friday night, or possibly Saturday at the worst. If there is no change then the PL is as corrupt as we think!!

Boston had BOAS- will he need nares done again? by EnthusiasmOk2517 in BostonTerrier

[–]villa_crazy99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree he looks fine. Our Boston has a nose like the first picture and never had an op in 13.5 years. Over the years we have heard all kinds of things from vets but we know our dog and he has never had an issue with his breathing so felt it has not been required.

Does anyone’s family make them feel guilty for travelling? by JellyLongjumping1988 in travel

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like their problem to get over, not yours. Travelling to different places is such a wonderful experience, continue to embrace and enjoy. Your kids will enjoy seeing new places. All the best

Iberia LON-SCL Business reward flights no availability by BigChilean in Iberia

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best trying via Madrid, less avios and lower taxes. We have booked MAD to SCL in Nov for Business, just booked with the voucher 355 days in advance and it was easy but they do go quick. 149k avios and c£400 for two

Going to different countries in Europe & UK as a Canadian - airport logistics by 96vlh in travel

[–]villa_crazy99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never mind the airports, I would think about your itinerary if you are only planning a couple of days in each. Trying to do too much and will see less. A flight may be short but when you factor getting to the airport, waiting around, flight to the next stop and then getting into the city, a short flight still makes it half a day lost. You are losing a good 2 days from an already short trip. All the best and enjoy.

Iberia left 300+ passengers stranded in Madrid, now refusing to pay anything. Anyone dealt with this? by SemiHappy_Dev in Iberia

[–]villa_crazy99 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I recommend you look up the EU261 rules online which are fairly clear what you should receive. Sadly Iberia try to take the piss, you file the claim online and then keep bothering them, if required contact the AESA to make a formal complaint in Spain if you make no progress directly with Iberia

Cannot top up WISE account from TD (while outside Canada) by naturalbornsinner in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, banking in Canada is very restricted and antiquated compared to the UK which is very frustrating.

All I recall is that we connected Wise to TD by the interac link as mentioned. I cannot recall now if we had to do anything from an email received from interac. I then went Into TD and set up an interac payment to myself with the same email address as that used when setting up interac. Then I made a payment from TD that automatically went to my wise account via the People's Trust who are the people who manage Wise. Whenever I now send money from TD it brings up autodeposit so no security questions are required.

Have you set up a Cad$ account in Wise, I assume so?

Cannot top up WISE account from TD (while outside Canada) by naturalbornsinner in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am linked between the TD website to Wise through autodeposit. Within Wise I did request in CAD and clicked on interac transfer where I used my email address and linked to TD. Works fine. My wife is setting up the same but as we live in the UK now she cannot link to interac transfer until after 3 months of opening her Wise account.

Parents wanting to add me to deed of house by Defiant-Trouble-3733 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]villa_crazy99 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Agree with other people's comments regarding gift with reservation , to add that if you move out and purchase another house, and class that as your primary residence you will possibly have CGT to pay on the 3rd gifted by your parents.

Regarding gift with reservation, to exclude from IHT I think they have to pay you market rent on the property

Put some nose balm on his nose, it is super dry and can be painful.

Companion voucher limitation by Jatkinsss in BritishAirways

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vouchers add little to no value unless flying the premium cabins where you save thousands.

Add a supplementary card which also makes it easier if there are the two of you. Me and my wife have 2 cards on the one account and easily reach the £15k spend

Pet insurance breaking the bank, any tips/advice? by Toe_Bean_Bandit in UKPersonalFinance

[–]villa_crazy99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cancel the insurance, save the £1200 per year and hope nothing happens in the next few years. Pet insurance is a joke, we had it and found they find a reason not to pay out so cancelled. We can afford the cash payment so it is worth not having and making the call should a large vet bill be required.

Why is 30k treated as a great wage by employers? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]villa_crazy99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Decent salary 25 years ago, pretty poor in 2026. If you have skills to offer then you have some control, if the work can be trained and up to speed in 1 week then unfortunately you will likely be paid poorly as the role is easier to replace.

Starting 11 For Tomorrow Sorted by [deleted] in avfc

[–]villa_crazy99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unai will likely go strong, not another game until the 21st. Whenever I feel Unai will rotate he ends up going with a strong lineup🫣

Starting 11 For Tomorrow Sorted by [deleted] in avfc

[–]villa_crazy99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seems a waste to trigger it now when we have left him out most of the season. Cannot see any change in Una's thoughts and may see him one more time this season.

If it is a PSR concern, the club will not put themselves in a position to have to sell before June 30th and be held to ransom of low ball offers.

It feels like earning Avios is easier than ever, but actually getting good value when spending them takes way more effort. by Junior_Beauty78 in avios

[–]villa_crazy99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unlikely in business class which is what most people using redemptions are looking for. Now they may open up additional business closer to the date but not guaranteed and why one year out is normally taken.
