Today is the last day to cancel your storecard/DJ Amex if you don’t want your info passed on to Latitude.

Store card seems to be ineligible for transfer using the online links on the Essentials and Platinum Edge pages. Hopefully they provide an exit path when I can get through to the right person on the phone. I have a Heritage card. DJs and Amex never came good on the promise of special offers for...

Hmmm. On desktop, the only Hilton card showing for me under hotels is the Surpass, and the direct Aspire link goes to an error page. It’s also missing from the carousel of all cards at the bottom of the Cards page - it says 15 cards, and shows 15 cards, not including Aspire! After seeing your...

Hopefully I’m mistaken but looks like the Hilton Aspire is no longer available for new applicants? Despite the very recent changes, it’s still attractive to me, but those changes may only apply to existing cardholders? I had held back for some time to align with Diamond expiry, but it seems I...

Has anyone heard anything about the new offer and/or transfer? We are creeping up to the announced start date of September David Jones signs Latitude as credit cards partner in exclusive 10-year deal | Media Releases

I use it every year to book Fiji or other in demand seats at Christmas. Has been brilliant and have always got the days and flights I want. They push the 3-day rule if there are points seats avail on those days, which never happens for the high demand period I use it. …so as a platinum I am...

Thanks both. @dairyfloss that was enough to make me put aside some more time to call! I managed to get through on the phone, and they were able to resolve after some back and forth. I now have tickets! I admit to being slightly spooked by recent news and chatter. I have to compliment the Fiji...

Hi all I was fortunate enough to snag a family’s worth of QF Classic Reward tickets on Fiji Airways (on a non-QF, non-Jetstar route) over the Christmas school holidays. Nearly 48 hours on, the booking has not been ticketed. Payment was taken immediately for the taxes and the points were...

Thanks @nightelves, will dive in to the HSBC application experience and get myself gold!

Hi, any suggestions? TLDR: Can I access SQ lounge using Krisflyer Gold status with VA Velocity on the ticket?

Hello all! I am a VA Platinum, travelling with family (total 2 adults + 12yo + 10yo) to Europe on SQ via Singapore with ~24hr stopovers (both directions). I understand I'm entitled to only one guest in the lounge, regardless of whether they are adult or child. Anything more is subject to the...

Late reply, but might still be helpful. My experience is that the earliest date holds, and you’ll keep it (or can ask for it) when you return to AmEx. More often than not, with a new card they’ll get my starting year wrong (and not always a year that makes sense!), but a quick call or online...

For Velocity cards with annual fees due between May and August, the annual fee due date will be deferred to November 2020. I rang to cancel today and was advised this was just announced internally. Comms will be sent to affected cardholders shortly.

Does anyone have any insight as to why DL40 diverted to HNL yesterday (19 jan)?

Double points for Nov and Dec on the MasterCard landed in my email inbox today. They are trying to keep the m/c in our wallets. Too little, too late for me.
