Saw a thread once about MS from the US Mint, Fishy selling his fish tank, or having United call YOU, but can't remember where it was? This is the place to ask!

So you could cross-post???
No, so (s)he could read what others have said about the topic.

Did you read through the AP thread to see if it was discussed?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Which posts and threads do y'all recommend to become knowledgeable in utilizing miles. I think I have figured how to obtain miles, churn, etc... I am still not so great at booking tickets. I can figure out a basic BA Avios domestic ticket, united and FB to Israel, but I feel as if I have a lot more to learn.

TIA

BUMP

If anyone can recommend some good reading material on the aforementioned topics (booking tickets with points), please chime in. Thanks

Also the BA knowledge base from DDMS. He has 2.  Also similar articles on DDMS.  Work from his tab on top 'mileage posts'.

Hi, looking for a thread (or a wiki?) on when to pay credit card bill (timing relative to the closing of the month) and how much to leave unpaid (if any?). Thanks.

Anytime before the statement closes and as little as $1. I usually leave about $10-$30. Don't pay it all because you want it to look like you're using the cc, you just want a low ratio between your utilization and credit line.

No, I pay it before the statement closes and then I pay the rest before the due date.

Make sure to read what I wrote a few posts later about still paying off the rest before it's due. I don't want to mislead you and cause you to pay late fees etc!

Is there a thread for asking questions about using the Forum itself. I searched, but couldn't find.

If you reply to a topic, but no longer want to follow the "new replies to your posts", is there a way to remove it from your list?

Thanks
