Hematoma post surgery

6 days post op vaginoplasty & perineoplasty. Still bleeding every day. Follow up appt today and doc said I have a hematoma "on the back wall" that's causing the bleeding. He said there is nothing we do for them except wait for them to go away on their own - either liquify and get absorbed by the body, or they will drain out. He said I could be bleeding for 6 weeks.

I wasn't aware this was a complication. He seemed unconcerned, but Google tells me I might need to be very concerned? Can anyone share their experience with a hematoma post surgery? I am now very concerned even though he didn't seem to be.

Four Lululemon offers haven't paid, one was a return but was "final sale" and they gave me a merchandise credit. Am I still owed the cash back?

Hi all,

I have four Lululemon offers on my Capital One Offers that never moved past "Waiting." All four were purchased with my Capital One Quicksilver Mastercard so Capital One has access to the confirmed purchases.

I was able to get my first purchase manually credited ($25 off a $25 purchase) after being told to wait 90 days, but the three others are still sitting. The second purchase moved past 90 days on July 17.

But question - it was a "final sale" purchase that Lululemon lets members return for store credit only. I returned that item but since I was only given a merchandise credit, my credit card was never refunded so the purchase is still on there, paid in full by me.

Am I entitled to request the cash back on this purchase? I'm assuming not since it was technically returned but again - it wasn't returned / refunded on my credit card.

The following two Lululemon purchases were not returned and those also still haven't moved on from "Waiting" despite it being 2+ months since purchase. I also have an H&M purchase that is still sitting at Waiting at 2+ months. I'm 0/5 on Capital One paying out their cash back offers.

5 Capital One Offers used, 0 have tracked

I have clicked through five Capital One Offers from my Capital One account, none have tracked.

All purchases were made on my Capital One Quicksilver Visa card, so they have access to all five purchases.

There are four purchases for Lululemon and one for H&M.

I was told I had to wait 90 days before Cap One could assist me with anything on any offer, so after the first offer expired after 90 days, I called again and was able to receive a credit on my Quicksilver Visa for the first Lululemon offer of $25. But now four offers remain. All say "waiting" and the next oldest one was a Lululemon purchase on May 23, so we're 67 days in and still "waiting."

It occurred to me recently that the first four purchases were made on my desktop computer on my Firefox browser, and maybe my browser was to blame? So I tried again for purchase #5 (also for Lululemon) using Google Chrome on my phone. That purchase was made July 23 and still "waiting," (my most recent one) and I understand if it's going to go pending, it should pend within a couple of days. So it appears this is also going to linger for 90 days just like the previous four have.

Anyone else? I have calendar reminders to call on the remaining 4 purchases at 91 days but I never imagined it would be this much trouble to receive the cash back offers advertised by Capital One.

Chase Offer for Sling TV Cash Back Disappeared After Purchase

Per title.. I added a Chase Offer for Sling TV at 33% cash back to my Chase Freedom Flex Mastercard. I then signed up for Sling TV's Select Plan. Now, the Chase Offer has completely disappeared - it's not in my Offers Wallet under "Added," "Redeemed," "Expiring Soon," or "Expired."

I had even screenshot the offer after I added it to my Wallet but mistakenly deleted it because I didn't think I needed it. My mistake! Now the Offer is gone and I signed up for this plan thinking I was going to get 33% cash back.

So always save your screenshots after adding a Chase Offer to your Wallet, and save it until your cash back posts :( Anyone else had this happen? I've had Chase try to weasel out of paying a cash back offer but never had the offer disappear completely.

Missing cash back from hotel stay, Rakuten customer service gives reply against their own TOS

I booked a reservation at a Corinthia hotel through Rakuten's link on April 13.

The booking tracked because it shows in my Shopping Trips, but with a "--" dash instead of a dollar amount because the stay didn't occur until June.

Hotel stay was completed on June 19 and of course the -- hasn't changed. Rakuten's terms of service for their Corinthia offer page state, "Cash Back will be added to your Rakuten account within a week after travel has been completed."

Since it has been a week, I submitted a missing cash back request and received the above email reply telling me to wait six weeks now and then reply to the email if it still hasn't posted. This is against their own terms that state it should be posted within one week.

Any advice here for someone who has had this happen? I have never booked travel through a Rakuten link before.

This isn't right for them to move the goalposts like this, and go against their advertised terms. This is approximately $167 cash back for me.

66 Days Waiting for Lululemon Purchase

I'm at 66 days since my first Lululemon purchase on April 4 for $25 cash back off a $50 purchase. The Shopping Trip still shows as "Waiting." No confirmation email was ever received. Same for additional Lululemon purchases on April 17 and May 23.

I've already called Cap One twice to inquire about the delay in offer and was told there was nothing they could do until it had been 90 days or the offer changes from "Waiting" to "Inactive."

Curious how long others have waited for a Lululemon offer?

I've already marked my calendar for 90 days to call back a 3rd time and will be filing a CFPB complaint if these offers are not honored.

I always have an issue with Lululemon on Rakuten (not used for these purchases) and always have to manually request my cash back. Rakuten will claim that Lululemon never notified them of my purchase so I'm expecting them to do the same with Capital One. I've made no other purchase through Capital One Offers other than these three Lululemon offers since they were so high so I have no positive experience with Cap One Offers at this time.

PayPal hack for cashing out the BCBS Prepaid Debit Card

This might not be news for some but I know someone will benefit from this.

DON'T add it to your PayPal Wallet - a previous Reddit user said the issuing bank froze his card.

INSTEAD, send an invoice to your spouse for the exact card amount (or to yourself at a secondary PayPal account, or just to yourself). PAY the invoice with the prepaid debit card.

We just did this with the balance of my husband's BCBS prepaid debit card (he spent most of it yesterday). It had $12 left on it from the original $116 so it was worth testing.

I sent him an invoice from my own PayPal for $12, he paid it with the prepaid debit card, I immediately got cash in my PayPal account that I then instantly transferred out to our checking account. So quick and easy to convert it to cash in our bank account!

PS - Note that if you're sending the invoice to yourself, you have to pay it as a GUEST. Don't log in to your own account to pay your invoice.

HTH!

BCBS Payment of $116 just came in

https://preview.redd.it/rtuuzwac8t2h1.jpg?width=945&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ff74916d3a28afca3611edfe8fc7cc3a86fc2c4d

We paid $21K in premiums.

Last week, I asked ChatGPT to estimate my payout based on my premiums, and it predicted $115-$120! It was spot on!

Still, our premiums were less than what I've seen other people pay so I wasn't sure we would get this much but ChatGPT was correct.

I got the payment notification email on May 15 so 7 days ago.

$150 Samsung Coupon on Capital One Offers - Samsung says it's invalid for everything

https://preview.redd.it/z9y7vkypzj2h1.jpg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22c3c1241e41cd5c5e0004ad2b4c408e7025c869

My Capital One Offers has a 2% cash back + $150 coupon code for Samsung.com. I have tried to use it for a new Samsung Galaxy A17 5G Phone ($199), this Galaxy Tab S11 at $899.99, and a Galaxy Z Flip7 ($899) and Samsung refuses the coupon code for all items that I've tried with this error: "This coupon cannot be redeemed for the current products in the cart."

Phones and tablets are not listed in the excluded terms.

Has anyone had success using Capital One's $150 coupon on Samsung's website?? This seems really scammy.

Rakuten's Target terms quietly changed, "Health" is now excluded

Just sharing for anyone who was not aware. I ordered Tylenol on my last target.com purchase and noticed that Rakuten had $0.00 "pending". I submitted a Help request for missing cash back (for a whopping 12cents) and I received a denial email stating that Tylenol was excluded for being "Pharmacy and OTC."

I have purchased Tylenol, Advil, etc. before and I've always received cash back for it. I assumed under the HEALTH category or maybe Personal Care, but I see that HEALTH is now removed.

TARGET has this product under their HEALTH category though.

https://preview.redd.it/8vaqw0dko61h1.jpg?width=1338&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=41ade8bfc97b18f10d22f00fc225c670c1f8d982

I don't know when this changed on Rakuten but thought it was worth mentioning.

I replied to the email that I had been going by Rakuten's previous terms that included a Health category, and previously covered cash back purchases for Tylenol + Advil. I got another response giving me the $0.12 cents (which I was not expecting at that point).

Anyway, I've had this copied & pasted because I could never remember what items are included or excluded under Rakuten's Target terms.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm for $19.99! (retail is $72)

The 100g size retails for $72 on Elemis' website, on Nordstrom, etc. The "compare to" price on TJ Maxx's tag is wrong, which might be why the sales price is so low. There were 3 of them in a locked case, I probably should have bought all 3. I opened it in front of the employee after he took it out of the case and it doesn't appear to be expired and hasn't been used.

Savings of $52 - my best deal yet at TJ Maxx!
