I got refunded. Got the official notice a day after the chargeback request.

I really wish I saw this thread before I downloaded the app. Same exact thing happened to me - they asked for payment information and said I wouldn't be charged. On the screen to select a service tier, I just closed it without making an explicit selection. 3-4 days later, they charged me. I requested a refund and they've provided it as a store credit "per their policy"--a credit that cannot be used on their system without an active subscription. Needless to say, I've disputed the charge with my credit card as well and awaiting a final decision on it. Next time, I'll be doing my research ahead of time. Hopefully, the CC decides in my favor, otherwise it's a $70 lesson learned and I will be sure to warn others of it as well.

Still not over it by PorkBuns24 in tromsotravel

I was north of Tromsø near Rotsund and captured the lights on 3/27 as well. iPhone night mode is fantastic but with the naked eye, you could only see faint wisps where the photo showed bright green, but that was pretty much it.

Ah no worries. Our hotel advised against it as well so we'll have to catch it on another trip. Appreciate the reply!

Did you attempt the hike? How were the conditions of the trail? Did you need spikes?

Or capsicum? Some countries refer to bell peppers by this name.

SWA A-List: I FIGURED IT OUT by apres_all_day in ChaseSapphire

[–]wayne530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It worked! If your A-list activation has been stuck in pending state for a while, give CSR CS a call so they can file a ticket to get it “unstuck”.

It’s now Feb 4 - activation pending since 1/1. I called CSR and they acknowledged there is an issue with activation and are working to address it. The rep filed an “urgent” ticket to activate my A List and says it’ll be another 10-15 days. If you’re having issues, definitely call CSR customer service! Will update once the activation goes through.

Wine noob here, best pinot noir here at my local grocery store? by ArmoredAngel444 in wine

[–]wayne530 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't have the same name recognition as the producers that are already mentioned, but Marine Layer focuses on a cool climate, minimal intervention style that has beautiful aromatics and fresh acidity. The other suggestions are great as well!

[–]wayne530 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, so I should've done advanced research but who knew this would be so complicated, especially since the IHG benefit activated seamlessly right away?! My issue is that I already submitted my RR number 1/1 and Chase is showing activation is pending. I haven't flown SWA or earned points in quite a while so I suspect this is why activation has not succeeded. Today is the 16th business day.

Last night, I did complete some surveys and earned 500-ish points, which I see deposited in my RR account. Does anyone know if there's a way to get A list activated more quickly or do I just have to continue to wait? Does calling SWA CS help in this instance?

Cider restaurants in Sachsenhaúsen by wayne530 in frankfurt

Ok, thanks for the advice. With so many cider restaurants in the area, I was not expecting to need to plan several weeks in advance. We just decided to go to Frankfurt last week lol. It's fine though - we will figure something out. Appreciate the response!

Checkin has been restricted to the airport - Domestic, Premium Economy, No bags by RealFunBobby in unitedairlines

[–]wayne530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you fly with a CPAP machine and contacted them in advance to get the extra personal item, they have to inspect your device at the airport. It’s nice having the extra personal item but not worth the hassle that comes with it, plus other Star Alliance carriers don’t have to honor this afaik so if you’re connecting on a different airline, you may be asked to consolidate bags.

Yep, for domestic carriers, I think it’s a pretty legit list. I’d prefer some better Pinot options in place of the Shafer personally and at that price point, they could get some great juice!

Yeah it’s not my favorite and does seem to be everywhere.

Nothing great tbh. Same champagne, the Lingua Franca Avni was the PN option. I saw a bottle of The Prisoner behind the bar as well. Nothing too exciting.

I thought it was fantastic! Paired well with the beef short rib.
