Topic Wiki

This is the thread where you can ask any random question you have. Feel free to ask even the most basic questions that you otherwise might be embarrassed to ask. This is the thread for beginners, so veterans here will treat you nicely. Ask a beginner's Q in some other threads and no guarantee of that same treatment. ;)
People here want to help, so just have some patience, follow the tips below and hopefully someone will help you when they have a chance.

If you looking for a particular thread you once saw and can't find it, this is not the place to ask. Check out Help Me Find It and ask there.

How to ask a question in this thread:
Click the blue reply button at the top or bottom of the page, type your question, and click post!

Some helpful tips for eliciting answers from other members:
- Keep your question short and precise. No one wants to read a megillah.
- The more questions you ask in one post, the less likely any will be answered. People are willing to answer a question or two, but if you ask all the questions that apply to your particular issue, you're expecting to be spoonfed. Members don't like holding out the spoon, so ask accordingly.

As I suspected. The money comes out the next day but they check for it the same day.
You would have been better off with a late fee as that is easier to wave if you've never been late before

You've got 3 hours to delete it. ("Remove" on the top of your post.) Afterwards ask a mod to do it.

I am looking to fly from NYC to Watertown Regional Airport (ATY) but I get very funny results from Matrix. They only have trips starting in 2 weeks from now. does this make sense? is there any way around that? will a travel agent be able to better help me?

P.S. if there's a thread that'a catered for this topic please advise.

Thank you

Im an AU on a CC, and my credit limit is not at the max (the original user limited me to $2k. Does removing that low credit limit make it better for the $2 trick? Should I ask him to remove the limit?

I may be wrong, but the 'credit utilization' portion of your credit score will be based on the entire amount owed on the credit card and the entire credit limit.  Your portion won't be separated out.  So if the primary on the card would do the trick, it would help you.  If he keeps high balances it would work against you.
But if this is your only card, keep it until you get one of your own.

How do I insert multiple old posts into a post? When I scroll down, the post I'm looking for is not there because it's too old. Thanks.
