Real answer: I can refill my metrocard from my commuter benefits account

I transfered the whole balance of my commuter benefit card to two OMNY cards this week. Did it online, it didn't work in store.

Who?

I also used to do this - I had the brown MetroCard actually that autoreplenished from my commuter card... But the newer option of just tapping the commuter card directly now makes the most sense.

The new fare scheme of maxxing out weekly at the weekly pass rate now removes all other strategizing. It's a lot simpler now.

Cough cough yes. I’ve heard that IRT is merging with the rest. Can someone kindly confirm this?

Partner says it’s “just a DSUE election, decedent was ill for years, no assets.” Provides no records. Not even an admission the decedent owned a toothbrush. So I looked up the decedent’s home - it’s a joint asset. Partner was “surprised”, and still insists “no other assets”. I found file references to art and antiques.

Can someone walk me through the Do's and Don't's of AA miles? I think they're a joke.

I have 65k miles and I could only pay for a one-way ticket from PHX-JFK. I had to book 1 leg with miles and the 1 with cash, but booking the other leg in cash was about 80% of the round trip in cash.

My mom has 12k miles that expire soon, transferring them would cost me $450. I can pay for a round trip with that cash but I can only pay for a trip to my kitchen with those 12k miles.

What am I doing wrong? 😂
