Feature Request: Saving custom multiviews

Would anyone else find it handy to be able to save the custom multiviews that you create? I create a custom multiview every morning to watch a couple different local news channels and one national channel before starting the work day I'm sure this would come in handy for other purposes as well including local channels during football season as one example.... Does anyone know if this is on the radar for Google?

2 Noobie Questions

Hello everyone - Ive been at it for about a week now. I have been reading the subreddit, getting very helpful tips! My 2 questions are:

- Mileage: Do you start tracking as soon as you get to the store and stop tracking after the delivery, or do you continue to track until you are done for the day?

- Cell phone allowance: For those of you that do this in the evenings after work and on the weekends, do you "expense" anything for your cell phone bill?

Thank you.

I have magical powers....

I just started Sparking this week. It can be as sunny as can be and as soon as I start working here comes thunder, lightening, and flash flooding!

Edit: I finally had a good trip though! 4 miles, 3 small items, $16. My shoes got soaked though, there was a few inches of water in the road from the rain.

Fidelity Visa or Amex Blue Business Cash for 2% catch all?

So I have 2 different credit cards that pay 2% cash back. If you had both of these cards which one would you use for anything that you're other credit cards didn't pay higher cash back on? My thought process is the Amex card since it has the extended warranty as well as stolen / damage in the first 90 days of a purchase. I don't travel internationally but if I did of course I would use the Fidelity card. If the store or vendor doesn't accept American Express then of course I would use the Fidelity card.

I use Fidelity for my banking so the Fidelity Visa automatically puts My rewards into my account but the Amex automatically gives me a statement credit for the cash back, so both are hands off when it comes to managing rewards. I'm just wondering what everyone else here would do and if there is something that I am not thinking about or considering.

Edit: With the US Bank Kroger card going away I'll be using these more now :(

Porkbuns email hosting

I am thinking about using Porkbuns email hosting. I already have a domain with them. Looking for any positive or negative experiences from the subreddit.

Is there a limit on attachment size? Sending and receiving.

Also is there an option with more space besides 10 gigs?

I tried to configure Fastmail with Porkbun but couldn't figure it out.

You can now redeem Verizon Reward Dollars to your Statement via Synchrony Website

/u/julknits replied to a post I made about this feature coming soon: "I was able to apply Verizon Dollars to my Verizon Visa account today. This was from the Synchrony website, not the Verizon app yet. Tapped on Rewards, then saw that "Apply Verizon Dollars to your statement balance" was available with a Redeem button. It seems to be the usual thing where you specify how many of the Verizon Dollars to apply to the Verizon Visa balance. It will take the usual couple of business days to show up."

I was also able to do this as well this morning. Nice find u/Julknits !

Wells Fargo Fraud Detection

I went to a grocery store about 45 minutes from my house and attempted to spend $107 because I had a cash back deal on my Wells Fargo Autograph card. The transaction got declined. I used another card (Not a WF card), no issues. Two days later I get a text and an email asking if the charge was legitimate. With any other card I have ever had this happen with I would get a text and/or an email immediately asking me if it was me so I could say yes and then attempt the charge again. The email said if I didn't respond that future transactions could be denied. I called customer support because I didn't want to risk clicking it it was an authorized charge for it to get through since I already used another card. The person told me there is nothing that needs to be done. When I questioned how the fraud detection was handled he said it's working as it is intended because I got an email and a text. I explained I got them two days later and usually you get those immediately. He said he could transfer me to the fraud department if I had any more questions. I just said no thanks and ended the call.

I used to brag on their customer service to everyone but here lately it just continues to get worse. For whatever reason I cannot transfer my rewards to any reward partners and even after several escalations it still doesn't work.... Now this. I think I'm done with Wells Fargo.

Has anyone else had weird fraud issues or bad customer service experiences lately?

Verizon Card Holders: Coming Soon - Use Verizon Dollars to Pay Your Credit Card Bill

If you log into your Verizon account (from the app) and select Verizon Dollars and scroll down you should see: Coming Soon - Pay your credit card bill. You'll be able to use them to pay your Verizon Visa Card Bill.

So essentially a statement credit. I think a lot of customers will be happy about this change.

Edit: Thanks /u/dinklebot2000 You will also get 3% cash back for paying your Verizon bill as well instead of 1% along with the 4% we already get for groceries, gas, and restaurants.

Final Bill question

I cancelled my service and got my final bill which is due at the end of the month. I have removed the auto pay options. I'm waiting for the Visa gift cards from Verizon and it looks like I won't have them until 10 days into June. Does anybody know from experience if they will go ahead and deduct it from my account anyway that was connected to it? Has anyone successful even able to call AT&t and push the final bill due date back a few weeks? TIA

Has anyone filed a warranty claim since it offers an extended year of protection? If so, was it pretty painless? I know some banks make it easy and some dont. I am considering using this for my catchall for expensive purchases or things that don't fall into a category for another card because of this perk.

Thanks for any input
