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.

Did you mean to ask that here? - https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=51056.0

Edit: Or is this thread for questions about anything? I thought it was for Qs about DD and the forums.

Is there a way to download a video from twitter on mobile ?
This should work. Copy tweet link, and paste it in the app.

If you have no cards and are not an authorized user on someone else's card, you're unlikely to be approved for a Reserve.


I can't think of what to get.  DDF?

Why not try for Sapphire preferred?

Same issue if you don't have any cards yet.

I would try for the capital one Journey as a first card to build credit now and then possibly possibly try for a sapphire preferred card Pesach time as you may have built enough credit by then but YMMV. Even then it may be too early.
