From what I hear a new joint website is in the works - along with more lounges...
Sadly, there are no plans for a Lounge at NTL

I receved a new Gold card in the Mail on Friday.
My Review date on it shows as the 31st October. There is no expiry date.
On my old Gold card it has the same review date, but an expiry date of 31st December.
Does this mean I'll now lose a month of what I had if I do not re-qualify/match?

Ok here is something I noticed this morning with my Velocity Gold card i received a couple of weeks ago..
It seems to have a proximity chip it in it similar to the paypass/paywave. I only noticed this as when i went to scan my wallet at the train station (using MyKi), the reader prompted there were multiple cards. Took the velocity card out and the reader could scan my wallet (with MyKi inside).
Can anyone shed some light on it?
I have the same issue with my EDR Mastercard and myki - need to keep them separate.
Looking the the new gold card there is indeed a chip ~1cm left/up from the bottom right hand corner.

Cute pack - took a bit to work it out - slide inner part (holding bag tags/booklet) out to the right and another part (holding the card) slides out the other end to the in unison.

Yeah I agree, I didn't know you had to pull on the left side as well. It's a nice little pack.
Obviousley they have set a small Intelligence test in order to be a gold. Wonder how many Qantas WPs will fail the test.
Must say I was very impressed with the Gold pack I received today in comparison with the dodgy WP pack I received from QF a while back.
On another note. I just opened my mailbox and found one of these neat little parcels from Virgin Australia.
The card still has Velocity Rewards on it, as does the whole package.
Except for a letter dated from Phil Gunther, and a little booklet about Gold benefits and a spiel about Platinum. Both say Velocity Frequent Flyer.
Hoping for a Platinum package to arrive within the next few months, after some more travelling.
That's what I was going to say :!:It did not fool this WP! (Of course, little does )
BTW, one does not need to pull on the left side; if you pull right gently but firmly the left side will slide out without further assistance.
This is indeed a great feature BUT it stops working once you hit platinum. I have just tipped over into partner Gold and would love to see how many more SC's i need to get by which date to hit partner platinum. Any chance of adding this VA?
