In reply to Allen Y.

Thank you so much! You are the first cc conversion this month. Just when I was about to add this to tomorrow’s post 🙂

If this blog does not sell a card a whole month it is game over!

So, I have two in April, one in May, will June be zip and time to move on?

Burned some more Hyatt point and Capital One points today, details tomorrow.

George, I lobbed in a Sapphire Preferred app via your link this morning before 80k goes away. Had to call the recon. After 18 mins, and moving CL, it was approved. I got you one more conversion for the month. Thanks for the good work.

1-800-625-7866

but not sure how up to date this number is…ymmv.

CO bank is weird. Can not have more than 2 personal cards. Will not approve you if you got one of its cards in past six months. May not approve you if you have too high of a score or if you voted for Biden or Trump or…whatever they come up with. So…u can try reconsideration but don’t have high hopes. And try again by early Fall.

Nice to see you back.

hey Guys,
Does Capital One have a reconsideration number? The Venture X (395 year) seems to be the only card on the planet I can’t get approval.
Thank you.

In reply to GeorgeTBB. I thought Andaz was all about Lemon Poppy Seed pancakes! What’s the point going in 1st class if you don’t drink alcohol? It’s not like the service and seats are that much better.

I agree with the Andaz in SDiego, I stayed there and was completely…underwhelming!

Yeah, let us know how the ones at Pattaya and Singapore are.

In reply to GeorgeTBB. Only other experience I have with Andaz was the SDiego hotel which did not rate at well. Awful vibe due to the surrounding homeless encampment and think the American faux customer service falls flat. We have booked Andaz Pattaya and Andaz Singapore for later this year and a friend is booked for Andaz Bali so will report back. Weirdly we are not at all the intended demographic for the brand but we find we like it way better than the stiff and formal tired attitude of the GH or PH brands. Maybe because it was staffed with youngsters full of enthusiasm for life and the job at hand vs the old and tired and burnt out going through the motions.

Volunteered to be the designated driver at the wedding so I am still at zero alcohol consumed in 2023! Will see how it goes rest of the year…

Will likely not make Globalist in 2023. As of now, I will be at about 30 nights…registered for the Bilt promo just in case things change. The Andaz hotels I have visited so far just have not been anywhere near the reputation they have. Similar to my Kimpton experiences.

Have you or anyone else been to the Andaz at Turcs and Caicos? Client visited the island recently and keeps raving about it.

Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers!
