Thanks for writing. I wanted to reply, but it was like sending an email and I'm not sure how Vivinavi works, so I'll leave it here.
We did not have Liability, but had insurance on the rental car itself. The receptionist told me Liability was optional. That's not right either. This is a rental company with quite a lot of stores. We did not call Police. We had just come to the US and had an accident and were panicking.
The other driver was from Korea, but I don't know if he was in a hurry or what, but we didn't call them.
I have looked into credit card insurance and company insurance that would cover this accident, but I seem to be at a loss. We are still in the process of negotiating the amount.
Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Kapolei pet hospital in Kapolei has a Japanese vet.
I think there are some in the Waikiki area, but the only one I know of is in Kapolei.
I don't know what a reasonable price is, so I can't answer your question.
We are in a care club at VCA, so vaccinations and such are free
I don't know what the market price is. I don't know what it costs.

I believe Aina Haina Pet Hospital has a Japanese director
. I heard him on the radio once.

Thanks for your comments and additional information.


Mr. A

Thanks for the update information.
I registered online immediately, and it looks like I will have my credit card in hand within 10 days
I see that I can also register for monthly payments before they arrive.
I have time to make next month's HOA payment, so I will wait for the card to arrive before I register for input.

Hello everyone ！

Good news.

BILT credit card arrived in less than a week （ Heavy as Amex Black card ； ）

HOAFEE has also been processed for automatic debit ！

It will be automatically debited from April.

Even though it is a credit card, it has a routing number and account number just like a bank

I am so happy that I can have automatic debit for HOAFEE as well as for rent.

I am looking forward to seeing how much frequent flyer miles I can accumulate by using this card as my main card ♪.

I joined BILT with a regular Rent payment, but I will record it for future reference.

Payment is via a platform called Appfolio.
The payment is made via ACH because it is not BILT Alliance.
When I entered my account information in Appfolio, I entered my First Name, Last Name as Account Holder and Checking as Account Type as Personal Account.
By the way, when I asked this question in BILT chat, I got a reply in seconds. I was surprised at the speed and accuracy of the reply.
Since I activated BiltProtect, I think it is treated as a Debit payment and will be deducted directly from my bank account.

And I just received a notice from both Appfolio and BILT that the payment has been processed. I was nervous because it was my first payment with BILT, but it looks like it went through.
Appfolio has recently started taking the ACH fee ($ 2.49€), which was not covered by the BILT fee waiver, but was charged here.

Minimum use of BILT （ 5 times ） but I will digest 4 times, excluding Rent payments, in small amounts for me （ because I have other main cards ）.
For example, Amazon gift card charge can be done from $1 per transaction （ It seems to start from $5 if you schedule it ） .
If I can't make very small purchases, I'll charge them to Amazon while I digest the frequency.

There seems to have been an information leak at Wells Fargo, the card issuer, around last year, but it seems to be under control now.
Just to be safe, I have set up my Wells Fargo online account so that I will be contacted when I go online or $ spend more than 10.

I will figure out how to use the points now.
Will I transfer them to airline frequent flyer miles, and if so, which company, or use them as BILT points for travel? etc. etc. etc.
Not very efficient, but they can also be used for Amazon purchases （ Not very efficient since the redemption rate is 0.7%, i.e. 1000 points are worth $7 ）.

So I will use it patiently.

Topic.
I have completed all the procedures and debit (credit card and HOA ）), so I will give you the updated information.

I did not want to open a new bank account, so I was able to debit the BILT payment from my bank account in Hawaii.
I also made various payments with BILT and received triple points （ $ for eating and drinking ） 300 points for 100 .
After a few years, I was hoping that the mileage would accumulate a little faster as I accumulated them.

Also, referrals seem to give quite a few points to both parties.
If anyone wants to be referred
please contact me directly by clicking the letter mark ♪.

Hi ！ Thanks for the Feedback too.

I don't have automatic debit for card payments either.

Immediately after registration, my Hawaii bank was not reflected, but a few weeks later my Hawaii bank was reflected, so

I chose my Hawaii bank and debited my BILT credit card payment manually.

If the 1st of every month is the day you get more than double points, it would be a good day to buy something on the 1st ！

Thanks for sharing.

My HOA company automatically deducts money from my BILT because they don't charge me a fee by doing an automatic deduction.

It's mutually beneficial for both renters and homeowners to make referrals because the person making the referral is happy to do so.

And the referral code doesn't have your name, just a number and an English code, so you can refer without knowing each other's real names.

With an annual income of $ 200000, that's 2 mil.

I'm also worried about medical expenses in my old age, so I might as well make Japan, with its low cost of living, an option.

＞ Social Security has a limit on how much you can get no matter how high you pay ？

That ！ ？ "no matter how high you pay" is impossible.
Social Security, I believe, only covers up to about $80,000 of your entire annual income. So, no matter how high your income is, there is a limit to how much you can spend. Naturally, there is also a limit to the amount of money you can receive. The maximum amount you can get is about $ 4,000 per month. （ The numbers are random, as they are more than 10 years old. ）

It is great that you are in your 30s and worrying about it now.

In my case, it was a low-flying self-employed life, but real estate rose steadily in value, which helped me to build assets.

I see, that makes sense. If there is a limit to both the amount you can yield and the amount you can receive, it wouldn't be unfair. I was taking it easy until recently, I was a little impatient with the coaching. I think I will save enough to not be a burden for now. Thank you.

＞ If you become a U.S. citizen, you will receive generous protection.

2500 $ You can rent a one-bed apartment for a few hundred dollars depending on your income. You must be elderly and low income, though. If you are over 80 years old, you have a big advantage, so you should apply for it now.

But if you get to that point, you may choose to go back to Japan, but the climate here is hard to beat.

hello- Thank you very much for the information.
I understand that you have to apply online, get your application approved, and then have an interview at the airport when you enter the country. ？

They really take your money quickly.

I think it took at least 6 months to get preapproved after applying online.　I remember how tiring it was to write all my work history, address, etc. as if I were a permanent resident when applying online. It's not easy to get. Because I thought they were checking my criminal background and probably everything. You can do the interview at a lot of different places, but I chose the L.A. airport.

I only use it twice a year and it's economy class, so I can get through immigration early without having to wait in line automatically, but I end up waiting with my suitcase, so I don't see much point.　Personally, if I were someone who only had carry-on only luggage, it might be useful.

Thank you very much hello-.　　I thought it would be nice to be able to bypass security at the airport when I depart...I will apply right away as it looks like the rates will be going up again in October.

I think there was a TSA or something different to get through airport security quickly, but that was only for domestic... I know there are a lot of different passes on the site.　But discovering the differences is difficult.　I know it's hard to wait in the departure crowd ～.　Will the price go up again ？ I haven't received any updates at all.

Even with global entry, you can get through quickly in a dedicated lane when flying domestically.
I recently experienced renewal and my husband experienced reissue due to loss, and both received their cards within a week.
Did you 50 inquire or anything ？?
