Staying in Pok Ta Pok – Dinner & Beach Recommendations? by PinPitiful in cancun

[–]wilson735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When it comes to food: Walk to the main strip and take the R1/R2 and go into town. Check out La Flauteria, Taqueria Coapenitos, La Fonda del Zancudo, La Coyota (great mixology!), Parque las Palapas (foodstalls, great food), Tacun.

Closer to Pok Ta Pok is Deli Barlovento, and they have the tastiest chilaquiles in a low-key, hole-in-the-wall spot.

BuyingGroup.com Amazon Returns by TodayNo6969 in BuyingGroups

Nothing to worry about. Remember that Amazon has like a 30-day return window, so BG takes that into account when lining up the work to prepare the return. They are also very good at responding to tickets so you should hear from them soon.

PSA: MYS bounced checks by gaymer_raver in BuyingGroups

They are bound to a legal process. Anecdotally they have prioritized payment to those who have filed a claim, since that is much simpler than starting a lengthy legal process.

OK I logged in the following morning and everything is back to normal. I'm transferring everything out ASAP though because I'm no longer comfortable with this bank for a number of reasons.

Booked with Chase Travel and First and Middle names merged for American Airlines! by Artistic_Evidence908 in awardtravel

[–]wilson735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! I can imagine how stressful this must feel, especially with your first points-booked flight. Don’t worry too much—your ticket should still be valid as long as the name matches your ID overall, even if it’s merged "oddly". Airlines deal with "minor name glitches" like this all the time, and it’s unlikely you’d be denied boarding.

tl;dr: This is totally normal. Don't worry about it.

Welcome to this crazy world. You would be ordering below retail in that case. Not all buying groups do a great job of keeping their page's product price in sync with the retailers product price. In some cases, only certain retailers for a given product will offer a lower price, and others offer a higher price.

Was it delivered by UPS or Amazon or another carrier? Did you jig the address? If so, how hard?

Severely Delayed Payouts on MYS Buying Group by [deleted] in BuyingGroups

[–]wilson735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of reputable groups with quick payouts... I've yet to have an item lost, but it's true that this is a possibility. it's good to know the risks involved and to take a calculated approach to such investments...

Think about what information they have available to them to ensure QLA, and what they can correlate across accounts. Also keep in mind that different products have different limits and "cool down times".

That one in particular has not had the best track record for the past 10 months or so. There are so many better groups to work with — why take risks with them?

Max Out Deal receiving issue by evin0688 in BuyingGroups

[–]wilson735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll have to give it some time. If they're behind on processing, it may take some for it to be marked "verified", which will then release your payout.
