Had to laugh when I looked at the Gold versus Plat pack and noticed that the plat pack comes with extra helpers on how to work it!

I picked up on that too. My Platinum pack came today as did a gold pack for Mrs H!! :)
 
What are they trying to say about the intelligence level of Platinums? :rolleyes:

I think they have me pretty well summed up. I still struggled to open the package despite the clear instructions!!! :oops:

I actually like the packaging better than the QF WP one. Loving the metal rings and luggage tags.

So the Gold one is Velocity Rewards and the Platinum is Velocity Frequent Flyer?

Both are the new packs AFAIK, and both received in the last month!
 
Maybe they should've got some inspiration in designing the packages from the deodorant blonde joke. :p :D That would've been a real hoot of an intelligence test!
 
As I already mentioned no problems for me; nothing that a knife didn't fix.

Gold package arrived today - had the special assistance tag.

Cue complaints from WP of erosion of benefits.....:p

Did yours have Velocity Rewards or Velocity Frequent Flyer written on the box? Sounds to me like they've created a second batch of them.

The two packs that turned up today at Chez Hancock were different from Mark's photograph. Apparently Gold's are reduced to the Platinum intellectual level!!!!....and Velocity Frequent Flyer is the go.

Wish I had the contract to do the boxes, I would be on next years BRW rich list :).
 
It struck me as a lot of packaging. Like the qantas bag tag packaging. Nice to behold, but in the age of environmental awareness.......

Probably better than the QF packaging - no foam.

It would certainly be recyclable and possibly even be made from recycled materials ...

My gold pack from when they relaunched Velocity still said "Rewards" (as did the card and bag tags) but my Platinum pack says "Frequent Flyer" on everything.

You should get the pack soon - I got mine nearly 2 weeks ago and hit Platinum the day before you from memory?
