I love credit cards so much!

Enjoy the trip! NYC is so great. We'll be back next weekend thanks to the Ritz 2 free nights.

I want to go! But older daughter won't be back until Sunday and I want a companion that will enjoy it!

I think I'll look for some nights for the following weekend, but we'll need two rooms.

*****Finally, I need some advice.****

DH is going to Vegas next Sunday for work via Frontier. I actually have a seat on that flight too HOWEVER my work kind of needs me to stay back so I also have a flight to Vegas via United on Wednesday. I swear I read on Frontier's site it costs $99 to cancel a flight and then I would have credit for the flight for 3 months. Well the flight didn't even cost that much to begin with... I hate to be a no show (DH and I are separate PNR). What if someone needed that flight and I didn't give it up? Does anyone have any advice? Think I can get that cancellation fee waived?

Quoting my own post - I need help with this. Anyone?

The train ride is fine, but early to mid morning is commuters going to work. Walking with luggage is not fun. Wheels on luggage is really not equipped to handle cement, stones, broken black top. A taxi or Uber will only be $5-$10.

@DisneyMandC this!! I walked a 5 min walk in NOLA with my luggage when we changed hotels- ugh! Cobblestone meet luggage wheels did not go well.

I should’ve added no luggage since we’re just going for one night and I booked basic economy on United! So all we have is backpacks to fit under the seat in front of us, so not much to carry/pull on the walk to the hotel. Thanks!

Well I decided to get SO the Hilton Biz for our wedding deposit and he got the pop up. Guess I’ll be putting more spend on his cards and I will try again in a few weeks. Guess our wedding deposit will just be netting us 8,000 MR with the Blue Business.

I had terrible mobile wallet luck over the weekend. 0 for 2 here.

First, I was at Target and scanned the wallet barcode... but for some reason it defaulted to having no payments selected at all, even though my Redcard and a gift card were loaded in there. So if you scan it and they aren't selected, it won't work at all. I ended up having to have the whole transaction voided because the employees can't remove the wallet/cartwheel scan.

Then DH and I decided to go see Wreck It Ralph 2, and killed some time at the mall beforehand. I found a shirt at the Disney Store (of course... I mean, it was a Meeko shirt! How could I not buy a Meeko shirt?) and told DH, of course I didn't bring along any of the cards we're trying to put spend on now. But then I realized, I'll use Samsung Pay/Chase Pay. Which I did, but for some reason it defaulted back to pay with points, which I didn't see until after!

I just don't understand, I've never had these issues... since I turned off pay with points in Chase Pay the first time I used it, I've never had to do it again. And I've never had my payment methods become unselected in the Target app. No recent updates to the apps I am aware of, but I've never had the issue with other updates either. Just weird. At least the Disney Store purchase was only $13 - though I did SM Chase about it just now, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask if they could change it...

Ugh I am so sorry to hear that!

I never use the Target wallet app, but I probably should.

I had an issue with ChasePay at Best Buy on Thanksgiving. I was breaking up two orders to hit two $25 transactions. First went through no problem. Second took 4 attempts. Luckily the cashier was very, very nice. I for sure thought my card was going to get shutdown for fraudulent charges on Thanksgiving. Lol

I hope Chase will reissue your points from Disney!

Amex offers on my Gold Card this morning: 4 separate offers 40 of 200 at each of Courtyard, Fairfield, Springhill Suites and Sheraton Four Points.

I'm going to try the Courtyard first to see if I can score it on a gift card. It does say gift cards excluded.

 

[Limes96]

I’ve been waiting for an Amex deal for Undercover Tourist to Buy my two sons single day US tix. Our trip is in just a couple weeks and still no offer. Guess I’ll go ahead and get them. If I remember right, UT will count as travel credit on my CSR. So I have to decide whether to put it on CSR (MSR already met recently) or DH’s Amex Plat (MSR not yet met).

@amalone1013 On DOC this morning - 15% off at Stubhub with promo code Cyber2018. Didn't you just buy gift cards to use there?

 

[elgerber]

OK, I know you guys are tired of my whining, lord knows I am, but I applied for the SW personal on the 15th and got the two week message. It's the 26th now, and still nothing. Has anyone had one take this long? Should I try to talk to them?

Ugh, everyone is getting new Amex offers but me! I really wanted that Chewy one since I needed dog food, but I haven't seen it on any of our 3 cards.

Darn, why are they all on my Biz Gold instead of my SPG Biz???? I think I'll add some of the offers that I'll never use on the SPG and see if the hotels appear after freeing up some space. If not, I'll just add them to the Gold since I know we have an upcoming Fairfield stay.

Of course, I have the Chewy offer and we are a pet free home.

I didn't get the Chewy either, and sure needed it.
I do have all those hotel offers, but no upcoming stays LOL.

Ugh I saw that, apparently it was posted yesterday which is when I bought them - I would have waited until today! Always my luck.

 

[Psychodisney]

Wow! TBH there isn't much difference in the two cards. It's just a slightly different colour. I have to look at the number to be sure I'm using the correct one.

But they need to send it...

I just got mine Saturday!

Being that it's a personal card...I'd call. I haven't exactly had a lot of experience with Chase recon in the past couple years though, haha! We used to be close pals back in 2015 and when I had a card go pending I'd call immediately. I've never heard of anybody sitting at 2 weeks for that amount of time, I'm assuming it's caught up in some sort of verification.

Thanks, I think I might try. I already talked to fraud on it, on the 16th. I figured it would get approved right away after that.

I need it too and don't have it either. You are not alone.

Off topic - if anyone sees Classic Tall II Uggs - size 8 in chestnut brown on sale for cyber Monday, please let me know. Thanks.

Has anyone had an issue with their purchases showing up on Chase lately? My new CIU does not, and has never, shown any recent transactions. It shows my total balance, but not that anything has been purchased recently. The only way I can see what I bought is to go to my URs where every purchase, back to the first one two weeks ago, shows up as pending. This isn't the usual Chase business website having purchases disappear temporarily. None of them have shown up ever. Ideas?
