How long do points last when banking?

I'm an elite plus memeber and I am interested in knowing if there is a cut off date for points? I have $90 worth of point saved up and I am planning on saving them hopefully for christmas was just wondering how long they last. I looked on the points section of the eliteplus membership page and I could not find anywhere where it stated.

Hello AWBrown,
I hope you are having a pleasant day so far.
That is a really great question!  There really isn't a cutoff period when it comes to how long our Elite and Elite Plus members can BANK their points.  As long as a member with Elite or Elite Plus status requalifies by spending $1,500 (Elite) or $3,500 (Elite Plus) on eligible Best Buy purchases within a single calendar year, they should be able to continuously BANK their points and issue certificates when they decide.
I looked over your My Best Buy™ account using the email address you registered with the forum and can see that you requalified for Elite Plus status during the 2014 calendar year, so your status will not expire until February 2016.  If you were to not requalify for Elite or Elite Plus status by 12/31/2015, then your status would be downgraded in February 2016 and any banked points would be converted into certificates down to the $5 level.
If you have any additional questions or would like for me to go over your My Best Buy™ account with you in additional detail, then please do not hesitate to send me a private message and I will see what I can do to help.  You can send a private message by clicking on the blue button found within my signature labeled "Private Message."

  • How long does it last

    I have a 2008 Mac Pro that i bought when it came out and it is still in perfect condition. It has 8 cores, 8gb ram, 8800gt video card 3tb hd. at the end of this year it will be three years old. I use it for final cut pro and other things. about how long will it last
    -it is in perfect condition
    -has a very stable power supply
    -never had one problem yet
    -still edits blue ray video stable
    should i upgrade this year or next
    thanks

    I am still answering queries about Macs discontinued before the turn of the century. The Hardware will last a good long time. You may have to replace a memory module ( FBDIMMs run Hot) or a Hard drive along the way.
    The software you are running today will do the jobs you do today, using your current workflow, for decades.
    Whether your needs will expand beyond the capabilities of that particular computer remains to be seen. And whether new "must have" killer Apps will come along and make your Mac seem slow, or lacking in some other way, no one knows for sure.
    \[But that is what happened to most pre-1999 Macs. You can't give them away. Folks don't want them because they can't run the latest Web Browsers or play YouTube Videos].

  • Does the computer lock me after a certain amount of failed password attmepts, even when i finally have the correct password? recently changed root account password, but then forgot today and when tried again didn't work.  if so, how long does lock last?

    Ok. So I just changed my ADMINISTRATIVE ROOT PASSWORD the other day and when I tried to log in today I forgot it.  I tried different variations of
    the password I had set, because I wasn't sure if i had maybe set it in Caps Lock or used a different number in the sequence.  I got the message several times
    about "too many attempts, try again later".  Does the computer lock me from signing in even with the correct password after a certain amount of failed
    attempts?  If so, how long does this lock last for?  When can I try again?  Or is there something I need to do to remove that lock now?  I'm pretty sure I
    had the right password finally but it still wouldn't accept it. 
    Also, I don't have any other administrative users set up on my macbook pro.  I'm the only one who uses it, so I've always just used that original User from my
    original setup.

    Do this:
    1. Reboot
    2. Hold apple key + s key down after you hear the chime. (command + s on newer Macs)
    3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
    (Type these commands very carefully)
    mount -uw /
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    shutdown -h now
    4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can change the passord on the old one.

  • How long SHOULD battery last?

    I've read 100's of posts on this and have yet to get an answer--how long should I expect my battery to last when my ipod is on, with screen on (auto lock on NEVER), doing nothing, no apps open (actually I removed all apps for this test), wifi OFF, location OFF, everything possible OFF, so just the screen on. This is ipod touch 8gb "3rd" gen, has os 4.2 but problem was same before with os 3.1. I get about 8 hours before battery dies. Is this normal? Warranty is just about up and I need to decide whether to pursue this with Apple. Thanks!

    Not as long as if you let the screen turn off. As lllaass mentioned, the screen uses a lot of power and as far as I know, when Apple test an iPod's battery time, it's on the assumption that you do not leave the screen on. Their figures would be based on that and it's largely the reason why watching a video has less battery time that listening to audio.
    So if you're not watching video, the battery will last a lot longer if you set the auto lock to - say 1 minute. More to the point, if you're not looking at the screen, why leave it turned on?
    My own choice is for the auto lock to kick in after 1 minute. That way, - if I'm browsing the music section, or reading a web page or browsing my Apps, my constant navigation around the Touch keeps the screen on. If I stop doing that and simply listen to music, after 1 minute the sreen turns off and battery time is extended.
    You say that you have yet to get an answer to how long the battery should last. If you check the technical specifications for the latest iPod Touch, http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/specs.html you'll see that playback time for video is 7 hours and playback time for audio is 40 hours from full charge. So if you have auto lock on never, I suggest that 8 hours is probably reasonable since it's the virtually same as watching video.

  • If you cache credentials in Safari how long does it last for on iOS?

    Can anyone verify how long cached login credentials last in Safari, and when they get cleared without user intervention?
    I have been reading other posts relating to a change that was made to Safari but not sure if it is related "Several people have reported problems that Safari’s cache prevents them from browsing a web site’s current version; instead Safari loads pages from previous cached files  (iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch). It has also been reported that clearing cache, cookies and history does not fix this problem."
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Mine just quit, it froze in the rebooting screen and does nothing else, please help. How can I restore it to factory state

  • Is it possible to estimate how long battery will last in 5th Gen Nano based on playing time?

    I just got a 5th gen ipod nano.  It looks like it was never used.  I tested the ipod as Apple suggests --It charges enough to play for 13 hours, not 24.  Is it possible to estimate how long the battery will last from this point?  Does the ability of the battery to take a charge fall off gradually, or is it a quick process?  Thanks.

  • How long do Notifications last?

    Question,...if i subscribe to an item or folder and then receive a notification in my "Notification Portlet", how long does that notification last before the system deletes it?

    I do think Oracle periodically "swings" by the forums and posts replies, but it strongly depends on which forum you post it to. I (not with Oracle) tried to post a reply to your post earlier, but the forum wouldn't cooperate.
    In 9.0.2.6 at least, subscription notifications default to 24 hours, but can been overridden by both the administrator by editing the defaults of the notification portlet or by the end-user by customizing the notification portlet. We usually set our default to 96 hours to account for long weekends and/or travel. You can set this by clicking on the edit icon on the notification portlet and going to the subscription notification section.
    Hope it helps,

  • How long do batteries last after full charge on Equium A200?

    Hi
    Just bought an Equium A200, and charged it for around eight hours, when I start up the battery life doesnt seem very long to me. Is says about 1hr 12 mins of life left. Doesnt seem like very long after an eight hour charge.
    Is it normal to only get just over an hour of use time on laptop after fully charged? Never had one before. Appreciate any input.
    Thanks

    Hi guys
    The battery life time depends on the notebook usage! So its not easy to say how long the notebook should run on battery power. But I think the 1hour 30min is a realistic period.
    However, if you want to run the notebook for a longer period then you could buy a stronger battery which provides more power for a longer time
    You should take a look at the mA value; the higher the better ;)
    Furthermore please dont forget that the installed Vista OS needs more power as a early OS like XP.
    The Vista needs more power because it wastes more computer resources.
    I read that an same notebook would run 2 times longer on battery power with preinstalled W2K or XP.

  • MBP in Battery mode...How long does it last?

    Hi Guys,
    I ve got MBP 2.0 w2GB RAM.
    How long does the battery last if i am only doing surfing?
    I was running an audio application called Ableton Live (which is similar to Garage but much much better) and it only last for 32 minutes.
    I ve got Bootcamp, the other day I was running on XP and complained about the not having enough power . I only unlplugged the AC for 15 mins.
    I double check the battery's serial against Apple's battery re-call program but serial is ok so it is not in re-call list.
    thanks.

    You should calibrate your battery: wait until the sign indicating "low battery" appears, then wait at least 5 hours (computer "sleeping") and finally charge the battery without interruptions until the battery is fully charged. During the charge, you can use your computer.
    This procedure has to be done every month.
    See under About this Mac (Apple menu), "more info", "power" (I think). There, you will see the actual maximum capacity of your battery. The value for a new battery is nearly 5500 mAh but can be a little higher.
    Don't forget to turn Bluetooth off and to lower the luminosity of the screen.
