Yeah, I've also found them good for pre-existing. Travel Insurance Direct has the TIDTHANKS, too.

I've always had to chase the points for these types of promotions (i.e. giftcards purchased through the gift card website) - so I typically avoid them now, given the low ROI.

I’ll shoot you a PM

I'm about to wrap up my 365 Day everyday (Woolies) mobile long expiry, and it looks like I'm going to move across to the Voda(fail?) 365 day option (on sale from tomorrow at Woolies for $150). Before I do, it looks like I'll have roughly ~50GB data left - if you're with everyday mobile and...

Lotus biscuit 8 pack for me.

In my experience, given Qantas Wine can't seem to properly deliver wine to normal addresses - they shouldn't try an expand their offerings to duty free pick up. Even though I stated on here "never again", I gave them another shot for a Champagne order for Christmas just gone. After weeks of no...

Really impressive - I had my doubts about BQB-MEL, but looks like it's been a success for JQ.

Between this and the Velocity offer - they really must be having difficulties selling the packages!!!

CBR? ;)

The effectiveness is absolutely useless. I have tried to use them a few times - first instance, they just forwarded my complaint back to the airline (without chasing it up), and the second time they didn't even respond to my complaint. It appears it is staffed by one or two team members, who...
