If they wanted BGs they wouldn't have added quantity limits on most products sold

They probably have to do that as part of their agreements with the manufacturers.

They could easily cancel orders the way best buy and b&h do.

Why not become an authorized officer? I don't think there's any legal paperwork required.

VS requires 48 hour advance booking for KSML only. Every other meal requires 24 hours.

BA too. KSML and Halal iirc require 48 hours.

45 days probably refers to the 3 free months offer, not SIM validity.

Was able to downgrade 2 Arrival Plus to the regular Arrival

I believe this is always possible through a supervisor.

Covered Trip means any pre-paid tour, trip or vacation when some
portion of the cost for such travel arrangements less any redeemable
frequent flyer miles, points, coupons or certificates, or other types of
redeemable Rewards has been charged to your Account:
• while the insurance is in effect
• to a destination of greater than one (1) mile from your
primary residence
• and is for a time period that doesn’t exceed sixty (60) days
in duration
Rewards means points, miles, cash Rewards, or any other type of
redeemable Rewards, provided that all Rewards have been accumulated
through use of a Rewards program sponsored by Chase Bank USA, N.A.
and/or its affiliates.

You should be able to HUCA AA for a fee waiver though.

Not sure how reliable this is.

UPDATE: Uber has managed to fix the problem. All accounts should be restored soon.

Up In The Air / Re: Any reason to change Maiden Name on Passport?

« on: January 26, 2020, 05:11:02 PM »

I know this was already discussed, but people at Social Security office claimed that old passport is invalid once you change your name with them. Sounds like they don’t know what they’re talking about, but can anyone provide DPs?

Thanks.

I can. They're wrong.

(Didn't get a new SS card, just notified them of a legal name change as required.)
