I don't even know what an Oura ring is ... are these nipple rings or something else? Not sure I wanna know. And the membership is to what? ... clubs that require these rings?

*Looks like Oura is planning to sell a lot of these rings with AmEx Platty credit, so they juice up their numbers for their eventual IPO...
Their valuation just went up to 11B on most recent funding round & likely lots more sales soon, Thx to the AmEx Platy credit)..

That would be interesting stock to buy into. I think Cardless would be as well if they offer an IPO, hearing some rumors of this possibility but no S-1 filings as of yet.

Based on my home airports and typical destinations, AA is usually not competitive for me. I have used Hotel GC a few times with both Hilton and Marriott, and it was a bit of a hassle at the front desk. They eventually worked, but it took a while for the clerks to figure it out.

I do use the UA travel bank, but that has some restrictions.

We use UA Travelbank as well.
 
Sorry, a bit off topic, but loved how this man has regular convos with his family, about his estate plan and has complete transparency between him, his family & his adult children about their net worth, their investments & their spending etc, to avoid drama/conflicts etc. Obviously being in the 0.001% & having a Billion+ $ NW is a different crowd but loved the concept of having folks have regular convos with family re their assets (& how family may access, who gets what, so their is radical transparency)....

*Resy credit earned on Amex app (although credit not applied yet but good to see the tracker moving...)
(Amex Platy, Resy f/u from above; purchase/use 2 days ago; good news)..
Lulu (credit tracker on Amex Platty app) hasn't moved yet (but still shows temp charge on AmEx although Lulu order shipped); confident it should come through (lots of DPs at Reddit; likely they are busy with all of using our credits)...
TY!

Our credits have mostly hit, still waiting for the Oura ring credit though. Accidentally picked the Uber One monthly plan at first and then went back in and signed up for the annual. It paid for both

My Resy credit posted quickly, no sign of my Lulu credit yet for a charge from the 23rd. No idea why, but Uber said I qualified for 6 months of Uber One for free, I won't see a charge until the end of Feb. I don't use rideshare that often so I don't place much value on Uber One.

We primarily use our uber credit for Uber eats. It basically covers the tip but with uber one, you get discounts on food, free delivery, and potentially faster deliveries.

Plus, Costco has two $50 Uber gift cards for $80 so I buy those and add to my uber wallet. When you pay, it uses that credit and the amex credit

For me, the Uber one credits posted quite quickly. My Lulu credit hasn't posted yet, but the charge is still pending. I noticed on the app that there's an enrollment for that credit that wasn't reflected on the app though I did it on the web site; I've enrolled through there and think it likely that I'll need to circle back to a CSR to discuss this one (Lulu).
 
Received Resy credit already.
*Lulu tracker also shows as earned on app (likely credit will come in next week).
TY!
