With Curve no scrapping the travel insurance, car hire excess and phone cover could anyone recommend some other service with these and perhaps some additional perks. When the subscription with Curve finishes the
4 year whirlwind romance is unfortunately at an end.

I would be very grateful to recommendations for a like for like insurance option. Really liked that benefit of curve metal. Going away in Jan so would like some good options.

what/who is FGS?

[idontfly]

Same experience as Roger, reset confirmed, small test, then total of £3k spent. Google calendar is going to be helpful.

I don’t see a way of adding PayPal on my curve app. I am a curve metal user.

Any ideas how to add PayPal, thanks

🙂 more threads like this please, reminds me of the uplifting moments that kept me sane during 2020. If only Paul the destroyer had the mealdeals card, it would have been at least 2035 before he ended up paying on date night.

y fronts will be on 🙂 thanks

Thank you, there was a flash sale so the price was very good. Wondered if any spend at the hotel could be used to generate some IHG reward points. Thank you

@lyn @sandj thank you very much for you comments, looking forward to the trip.

[idontfly]

@lyn thanks for the comments, will be visiting at the end of August, early September – are the mosquites really bad there at that time of year?

[idontfly]

Thank you very much for your input, will review!

[idontfly]

Thanks Rob, my wife hasnt taken my surname so it looks like it isn’t going to work. Never mind, thank you.

[idontfly]

Yes, this works for now. Just be careful.

How do you get a Covid recovery certificate and can you get it for free?

[idontfly]

Hi all! If I recently had and recovered from Covid, do I still need to do the Day 2 test when coming back to the UK? Does anyone know as PCR can be positive for weeks or even months.

[idontfly]

@AFKAE, thank you

I might as well add that the controversial comment that crypto.com visa card offers cashback (paid in CRO currency) of varying levels, for example 2% when you stake £300 in CRO for 6 months.

Still quite undecided about this to be honest. If you can earn £300 back then I guess it is fine. Is it possible to use with H+L top ups for example or is it as restrictive as the chase card?

something isnt quite right with Curve just now. I’ve just been charged a fee.
I’m well over the £10k for December, but I’ve been careful to toggle “fronted On” when needing to pay off credit cards and then “fronted off” straight after. For transactions I had toggled fronted on I still have nearly £1k available to use.

Yep, same situation, I wrote to them in the chat but nothing back so far. A bit concerning to say the least.

We are staying in a hotel for a few days when we first arrive, then a BnB on Day 5. Can we avoid airport PCR in this case? i.e. just do antigen with hotel on Day 0 and self test on Day 5? Does anyone know? Thanks.

[idontfly]

@TGLoyalty, will try that next time, I just thought to use the V+ card with ernie I should use their approved route.

thanks, I am well under, well under 10k. Just hesitant to contact them because anytime you ask questions they just close accounts rather than helping!

[idontfly]

@TGLoyalty – From the curve fronted page on the app:
Curve Fronted
Curve fronted lets you pay with Curve using a credeit card where it would not normally be accepted like HMRC, NS&I accounts and payments to financial institutions.
Curve Fronted 1.5% transaction fee about £10,000 per calendar month.
When off, you will only be able to pay for eligible transactions using a debit card.

I have spent far less than 10k.

[idontfly]

Pending on V+ with the extra curve surcharge. Will wait and see if they amend on Monday but not good.

[idontfly]

yes correct!

Can you not just use your PDF copy valid for a month?
