USAirways Promo Registration Linky

USAirways is giving a 50% bonus on hotel points being transferred into USAirways miles through 07/31.

Normally 20,000 Starpoints transfers into 25,000 USAirways miles. With the promo 20,000 Starpoints will net 37,500 miles.

The 50% bonus miles post weekly.

USAirways begins flying nonstop from Philadelphia to Tel Aviv on July 1st.  They charge 80,000 miles in coach and 120,000 miles in business class for the round-trip.

USAirways also has a very competitive Star Alliance award chart which is far stronger than United’s due to lower rates and the lack of United’s evil Starnet alliance award flight blocking.

In addition you will be able to use USAirways miles on Continental when Continental joins the Star Alliance later this year.

So here’s the real question, what’s worth more to you, 1 Starpoint or 1.875 USAirways miles?
Vote now!

T-Mobile is increasing the cost of going over your plan minutes to 40 or 45 cents per minute effective 09/01.  The exact changes for your plan will be sent out in your next cell phone bill.  You have 30 days from the date of receiving notice that this cost is rising to cancel your plan for free.

According to T-Mobile terms and condition there is no way to simply cancel your contract, you must terminate your service and you will not be liable for the ETF.

Even if you have never gone over your minutes in the past you still have the right to cancel your plan as you may go over your plan minutes in the future and T-Mobile is unilaterally modifying your contract in a materially adverse way.

It may take a few phone calls to customer service, but you should be able to find a rep to let you out of your plan for free.  If not you can always write to T-Mobile saying that you do not accept the new terms and you wish to end your contract.

If you want to port your number out of T-Mobile be sure to tell the rep this before canceling service so that they can notate your account to waive the ETF upon completion of porting your number to another carrier. If you cancel your plan before porting your number out of T-Mobile you may not be able to get your number back.

If you try to cancel be sure to let us know what happens!

Here are the relevant T-Mobile Terms and Conditions:

“5. Our Rights to Make Changes. Your Service is subject to our business policies, practices, and procedures, which we can change without notice. UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY LAW, WE CAN CHANGE PRICES, CHARGES AND ANY TERMS IN THE AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME. IF WE MATERIALLY MODIFY THESE T&Cs IN A WAY THAT IS MATERIALLY ADVERSE TO YOU, OR IF A CHANGE INCREASES YOUR SET MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGE(S) (the set amount – which does not include overage, features, optional services, taxes and fees – you agreed to pay each month for at least a one-year Term), WE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH AT LEAST 30 DAYS NOTICE AND YOU MAY TERMINATE YOUR SERVICE WITHOUT AN EARLY TERMINATION FEE (WHICH IS YOUR ONLY REMEDY) BY NOTIFYING US WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER YOU RECEIVE THE NOTICE. IF YOU FAIL TO TERMINATE WITHIN THOSE 30 DAYS, YOU ACCEPT THE CHANGES.”

United Eliminates Award Expedite Fees!!!!

Monday, July 27th, 2009

Effective 07/30 you will no longer pay any expedite fees on United when booking or changing an award ticket!

Expedite fees originated in an era when paper tickets were the norm, and booking an award ticket close to the date of departure had real fees (overnight delivery, etc.) for the airline.

However as the airlines migrated to e-tickets the award expedite fees have stayed and even grown to as high as $150 on Delta.

United charged as much as $100 to book an award ticket within 21 days of departure or to change an existing award ticket to a flight to within 21 days.

What’s really nice about this change is that many airlines now only open up mileage seats at the last minute when they see that the seats won’t be sold and when they will reap an expedite fee.

Hopefully the other major airlines will go ahead on match United in eliminating expedite fees.

Here is a chart that I previously made before this change on expedite fees, based on how many days before departure the mileage ticket is booked (No airline charges an expedite fee for tickets booked 21+ days before departure, USAirways offers a $25 online discount through 08/12 and is the only domestic airline to still charge a fuel surcharge to all US originating award flights) :

SIZZLING! Get Free VOIP With Free Nationwide Long Distance With Google Voice And Gizmo5!

Monday, July 27th, 2009

Update: Since the time of this posting when unlimited calling was allowed, Gizmo5 has instituted a 3 minute call limit while the service is in beta testing mode.

If you already have a Google Voice account than this procedure is quite simple.

Yes there are tons of other great uses for Google Voice, but this one is pretty neat…I’ll definitely be trying it out when I go to Israel next month!

If you don’t have one yet, just request an invite and within a couple weeks you should get one.

Once you have set up your Google Voice account,

-Go to gizmo5.com

-Sign up for a gizmo account and download their VOIP app.

-On the Gizmo site is a “My” tab. In that section is a place to enter your Google Voice login information, enter it and save it.

-On your Google Voice Settings page add your Gizmo phone number (1+10 digit phone number found in your Gizmo account page) and verify the number.

-Use the Gizmo5 VOIP to make phone calls to anywhere in the US and receive phone calls with your Google Voice number for free!

North Of The Border Starwood Envy? Get The Canadian Starwood Mastercard From MBNA!

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

Update 2: The current signup and spending threshold bonus for the Canadian Starwood Mastercard is slated to expire on 08/31! Be sure to sign up before then to take advantage of the current offer!

Update: Some interesting things to point out from tipster up North:

-You only need to spend $40CAD in a Starwood hotel to qualify for the first stay bonus.  So if you have a cash and points stay where the cash portion is at least $40 and charge it to your Starwood MBNA card you will get a 5,000 Starpoint bonus.  You can also qualify by adding other incidentals to your hotel bill even on an award stay as long as they hit $40CAD.

-You are able to have more than one Starwood MBNA card and they can credit all to the same Starwood account, so that if you reach $30,000CAD in annual spending you can switch to the 2nd card, as the 5,000 Starpoint threshold bonuses for hitting 10K in spending ends once you hit $30,000 in a year on a card.

Originally posted on 03/09/09:

Starwood Canada MBNA Credit Card Linky

Canadians rejoice-You too can collect Starwood points via credit card spending, plus there is no annual fee for the Canadian Starwood credit card.

The Canadian version of the Starwood credit card is a Mastercard and offers 5,000 Starpoints after your first purchase.

You earn 1 Starpoint for every 2 Canadian dollars spent, and there are threshold spend bonuses. You get a bonus 5,000 Starpoints for every $10,000 CAD in spending, up to 15,000 Starpoints for threshold spending annually.

You will also get a bonus 5,000 Starpoints after your first stay in a Starwood hotel. (Would be interesting to know if a purchase from the hotel bar would qualify as well…)

Besides for the obvious appeal of being able to transfer Starpoints into miles of dozens of airlines at favorable ratios, there are also some great values at Canadian hotels.

Take the Westin Harbour Castle in downtown Toronto.  (Side note: I have the best memories of this hotel as a 10 year old getting the autographs of the ‘95 World Series bound Indians that I described a couple years ago in a post titled “Manny being Manny.” I believe that most visiting teams still stay at this hotel)  A random date check (06/07) on spg.com shows a rate of $279. Using points, which have no capacity controls, it is available for 7,000 Starpoints, or a value of about 4 cents per Starpoint.  Better yet, it is also available using Cash & Points for just 2,800 Starpoints and $45, or a value of a whopping 8.4 cents per Starpoint!  It would take a solid Nights & Flights Starpoint redemption to beat that kind of valuation!

Earn 2.00% APY On A No-Penalty CD At Ally Bank!

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

Update 2-07/23: Tomorrow (07/24) the Ally no-penalty CD and online savings will remain at 1.9% and 1.85% respectively.  The regular 1 year CD will go down from 2.05% to 2%.

Update-07/16: I have been informed that the Ally bank rates will decrease tomorrow (07/17) as follows: The No Penalty CD will go down from 2% to 1.9%, the 1 year CD will go down from 2.1% to 2.05%, and the online savings will go down from 1.95% to 1.85%. Open a CD right now to lock in the higher rates!!!

Originally posted on 07/15:

Ally Bank Linky

Ally Bank has a unique no-penalty 9 month CD offering a 2.00% APY.

Normally you must leave the money in a CD for the entire predetermined term.  With the no-penalty CD you can withdraw your funds at any time from the CD and you will get back your entire deposit with all accrued interest without any penalty!  That way if rates go up in the near-term or if you have a need for the funds you can earn a  great rate and not worry about locking up your money.  The 2% rate is guaranteed for the 9 month term.

The advantage of a no-penalty CD over a savings or money market account is that the rate of the money market account can be dropped at any time, whereas the rate on the CD cannot be lowered, and if it goes up you can always enroll in the higher no-penalty CD!

They also offer a traditional 12 month CD earning 2.10% APY and an online savings account earning 1.95% APY.

Ally compounds interest daily and all deposits are FDIC insured up to $250,000 per depositor.

The good: 2 free bags and no change/cancellation fees.

The bad: No assigned seats, no true elite status/airport lounge system, no first class, and they don’t fly internationally so forget about using your miles for a “once-in-a-lifetime” first class international trip.
