    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Tello Vo2ndsim works on iOS only. This is not a Tello issue, this is an Android issue. Note every Android is a bit different so maybe it works on your specific device but 99% of pixels, Samsung galaxy, Huawei, etc will not support it properly. VoWifi works even if it says no service. 🤷

    If I modify an existing OWA after 5 August do I get recalculated at new rates?

    Yeah...that's not going to happen ever. Its a popular route even in off season. I think this idea is too ambitious to ever work.

    At the end of the day, it is up to you how much you want to fight it. At some stage, if it costs you 300 hours to get a good agent and you make federal minimum wage of 22 per hour, you have spend 6600 aud to save 20k QFF points. Thats one way of looking at it. But unless you have...

    You need to hang up and call again 300 times. Make sure you fold 1000 paper cranes while you do so and roll the magic 8 ball. Also buy a powerball ticket. You could try learning tagalog to explain what you want from the manila agents or become an elected MP to get access to the chairmans lounge...

    It should say APT or Suite instead of PMB because nobody lives in a PMB

    CheckMyTrip Update - No more desktop access or ticket numbers

    Ticket numbers was the big thing - if it updates in semi-real time can still help against QF incompetence dropping flights for lack of ticketing

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Just adding to this, DPs from others that most Hiltons outside of US/Canada are billed by hotels so pre purchase rates SHOULD work at non US hotels. Close to Australia, there is Surfers Hilton, Queenstown Hilton, Conrad Bali, Hilton Pattaya, Doubletree Penang, Hilton Tokyo Bay, some random...

    Does pulling direct from Wise still work for new Wise accounts that may or may not be in your name?

    I think some ACH transfers are more equal than others. Doctorofcredit has a pages with some DPs for what may work.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I'm not intelligent enough to figure out how to MS with Fluz. Buying GCs and then reselling them on dodgywebsite.com is the best I can come up with but is so absurd it can't possibly be right.

    Article: Why is Dynamic Currency Conversion Even Legal?

    I think I agree with the general sentiment that as long as you avoid DCC you are fine with pretty much any other option. Assuming you travel an above average amount and spend 10k per year overseas in person-present transactions, 0.5% Mastercard/Visa spread = $50 3% Bank FC rate + 0.5%...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    No I never "received" the original card, I got a replacement card sent to Australia. But the emails keep asking me if I have "received" the original card. Agent said that they cancelled the original card when they sent the replacement, but I also keep getting marketing emails for the original...

    I keep receiving "did your card arrive yet" emails for my original card at regularly scheduled intervals. I am already using my replacement card. Safe to ignore these emails?

    Duty free list in Singapore or Beijing

    Hi Mate, If I'm not too late, I am 99% sure that is only available (legitimately) where it is produced in Germany. 99% sure it has to be Düsseldorf ot immediate vicinity as well, because it probably has similar EU protections to champagne etc so if it is available outside it might have a...

    Article: Why is Dynamic Currency Conversion Even Legal?

    Bad consumer practices are bad, but 1. If you don't have a no FX fee card in AU, a 1.5% wouldn't be the worst thing in the universe 2. If it is truly only a 1.5% fee on top of the mid market rate (and not Ubers made up rate), this honestly comes close to a notary FX fee card because i have...
