Late last year I planned a OW RTW journey and booked this through the Nadi QF Office. I then told the office that we weren't going to proceed - however the bookings were still appearing under "My bookings" on the website.

Fastforward a few months and the original departure date has come & gone. I have since noticed that the J JFK-LHR and the J BUD-AMS flights have credited to my QFF account - odd, considering I never stepped foot on those flights.

Has anyone else had this happen before? Do QF usually pick up on these things, and reverse the credits?
 
Read our AFF credit card guides and start earning more points now.

AFF Supporters can remove this and all advertisements

In 1997 I did an extended US & Europe trip - according to my activity statement:)
 
I wonder if someone did travel those flights with your boarding pass. Perhaps someone with a similar name, and when handed a J boarding pass they did not complain and enjoyed the flight.
 
There used to be a trick with a certain FF scheme where booking tickets a certain way and then not flying actually would often end up crediting.

The systems aren't foolproof and mistakes happen.

(Note that loophole has been closed I believe, and didn't affect crediting of points to QF).

If anyone has a guilty conscience over points that may or may not have been incorrectly earned, I am willing to adopt them as a "family member". Transfer those ill-gotten points to me and thy conscience (and soul) will be cleansed without a single Hail Mary needed.

Happy to be of assistance.

Haha, why didn’t I think of that!

But then I would have a guilty conscience of tranferring points to a "non family member". ;)

knowing that the non family member is probably out enjoying free J lounge booze gotten with your points will often put your mind at ease... :D
