Qantas Points Club Discussion

[RB001]

How many SCs did P-ers and P1-ers get?

Lowly bronze this year and got 40 SCs which is still nice but won't help me quite get over the next tier. Less travel this year.

Note that:

150 and 300 respectively.

150 and 300 respectively.

The one year I don’t need them (and I’m only 1 mth in). Also about to take points for GT, first time I’ve done that. Probably will op for Double Points (not DSCs)!

Edit: the bonus PC points and 2x QF Hotels points will come in handy for retaining PC again. There’s also 2x bonus points for QBR members (and of course, we can xfr 20k towards PC each year.

To be clear SCs are not going to Points Club - the topic of this thread.

Actually, all “active”* QF members - including PC/PC+ will get some SCs even if they have zero, but are earning points.

*some activity in the last 18mths

Only PC/PC+ are getting the bonus points however.

They are going to Bronze members, yes.

But the Points Club gift is different to this.

Ie, this isn't the thread to discuss SCs.

I think for PC+ the extra points somewhat offsets the increase in points cost for CR redemptions for my next booking. Better than nothing

The 5K points should arrive by 8th Sept.

30 Sep was for Bronze FF.

According to the Qantas FAQ in the Qantas Points bonus gift section for PC and PC+ members:

When will I receive the Qantas Points gift?
If eligible, the Qantas Points gift will be credited to your account by 30 September 2025.

and

Where will I be able to see the Qantas Points gift?
You will be able to view the Qantas Points gift on your activity statement in My Account on qantas.com or in the Qantas App by 30 September. The transaction line item will appear as ‘Thank you for your loyalty’.

So I have no expectation that I will see it in my account until 30th September, No mention of 8th September for the Qantas Points Bonus Gift. The 8th September is only mentioned under the section for Status Credits bonus gift.

We'll see. I think the page has been poorly written, as there is no separate status gift to points club members - only to FF members (which of course includes PC members).

It seems odd they would award the same amount to Bronze PC members as regular Bronze members, but credit it earlier just because you happen to be a PC member. I guess it's possible, but that would be very odd. And the idea of the loyalty gift is pretty odd to begin with.

Perhaps they are prioritising bronze SC gifts in order of PC membership. But then they could just as easily prioritising the PC gift in order of status.

As WP/PC, I'm expecting both by 8th September, We'll see.
