I mean...it's pretty straight forward. Most people haven't had it more than like 5 days. I don't even have a charge that isn't still pending lol. I've already made a travel purchase >$325, but hasn't posted so will wait and see if it just auto credits. Otherwise, how much is there to talk about haha? Some DP on walgreens GCs maybe, but nobody will be able to know what comes of that until their statement closes.

Does Samsung pay work at CVS?
I saw a thread stating that it did work about a year ago and on another thread CVS denies contactless payment. I would like to know if it's worth switching my iphone to a Samsung phone, given that I can earn 3% using US bank altitude reserve for mobile wallet.

So travel agency booking (e.g expedia, orbitz) is not categorized as travel. Where would you book your flights to get the travel reimbursement besides directly at the airlines?

...why wouldn't you book directly with the airline? Typically it's the lowest fair anyways. Why do you need to use a third party?

In theory, it should work. But some say CVS gives you "contactless not allowed" message when you try.
I am on the fence of buying Samsung phone to utilize 3x earning by using US bank altitude reserve but if CVS does not take Samsung pay, it does not mean much to me.
So for the Samsung watch, you need android to use Samsung pay, correct? I currently have only iphone so can't even try it without spending close to $200..
Please let us know your experience once you try at CVS.

If you're approved instantly it should arrive very quickly. I applied on Monday when applications opened, and the card was delivered Wednesday morning.

Wow. Thank you very much for the DP dctech! I really appreciate it.
I am just curious. Did you have to turn off NFC function to use Samsung pay? A couple of reports show that when a Samsung phone is near CVS card reader, it enables NFC, which prevent you from using Samsung pay.
