    St George Rewards Signature KrisFlyer Devaluation

    Is it just me or is the amplify site broken? I can log in and see my account details but no rewards at all will show. I have tried a couple of different browsers. I might have to call. Glad I didn't leave it until the 30th...

    It’s an issue that has been discussed before. I have always managed to book online but perhaps try calling: Krisflyer Booking - 'System limitation' error

    ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

    Good luck. It seems you got stuck at an interesting time with them shutting credit card payments down. To be honest I gave up on Beem completely after my missing payment experience. My payments are generally in the low 10s of thousands so $2k at a time was painful and my card didn't work most...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    I just did this yesterday (same origin, change of date and destination from MEL to SYD with no status) and was expecting it to be US$50pp, but the agent did it for US$25pp plus there was a US$6pp tax difference. Not sure if it will happen every time given the terms are imprecise but there is...

    Westpac altitude black - switching rewards programs

    Yes, sorry, I misunderstood your question. If you want to book Qantas flights you can transfer to Cathy Pacific or Malaysia who are both in Oneworld, although I'm not sure of the value there. Otherwise you can transfer to Virgin or Singapore points. Personally I value Singapore the most so...

    Westpac altitude black - switching rewards programs

    Yes. See from here: https://www.westpac.com.au/content/dam/public/wbc/documents/pdf/pb/credit-cards/westpac-altitude-terms-and-conditions.pdf I have not have the same troubles WLGFlyer had switching from Altitude to Velocity or vice-versa.

    Can someone 6ft2in tall fit in the SQ business class bed?

    I am 6'3 and have slept on 350 numerous times (long haul and regional) and the 787 no problem. I have not flown the 380 in J. You should sleep fine if you are not too sensitive but if you prefer to sleep on one side or the other, on the 380 and long haul 350 left hand side sleeping is easier...

    Krisflyer Booking - 'System limitation' error

    Are you trying to book 355 days out? It consistently does it for me on the very last day of availability that shows on the calendar. As far as I can work out it's because system thinks the connection would push the booking past 355 days, even where it doesn't and both segments were available...

    Tranfer kf to velocity to extend miles

    Hello, it's me, your new redemption nominee ! But yes, get to it and booking trips is the best way. If you can't immediately use them all on flights there are a few options, with varying degrees of value that you might want to combine: 1. Just before the points expire, book a some flights. You...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Like many other people, I've been watching availability for Europe next December/January at the 355 day limit and as mentioned above, BNE is a complete blackout. Some in/out of ADL and SYD, but MEL had the best availability. Unsurprisingly tough to book but managed to get 2x2 J MEL-SIN-LHR on...

    ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

    So the conclusion to this little sage is that once I escalated my complaint Beem offered to pay me the $2,000 with my agreement that I would repay it once the payment showed up, which I accepted. I did ask them to send me the Bpay reference number etc so I could follow up with the ATO and see...

    ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

    Just as I was about to do a charge-back, I got a response to my escalated complaint. No luck with the tracing the payment yet but they have offered an interim solution which I am happy with and I will update if it comes through.
