    CC churning - equifax scores

    I think you will find the closure of your other card will have little affect increasing your score. Interested to hear if I’m wrong. Amex don’t currently report “Postive” information. Repayment Histrory/limits so on. They are not required to by the legislation at this time. Most Mortgage...

    CC churning - equifax scores

    A bit late on this but I have to strongly disagree. I’m very familiar with Home Loans and Credit Reports and Scores. Churning cards reduces your Credit Score due to the inquiry’s and type of credit, these have significant impact for the proceeding 12 months but continue to affect for 5 years...

    SIN - CBR - WLG SQ291/SQ292: quite good start

    SIN - CBR - WLG SQ291/SQ292: quite good start

    I believe SQ picked the 777-200 because it is more premium heavy than the A330 38 vs 30 because of the expectation for premium government and corporate flyers (happy to be correct on the numbers) @Melburnian1 Qatar has announced direct flights CBR - DOH

    Issue: Use of Fly Ahead on (points) upgraded sector

    Best way to get to the USA in Business Class

    'Full' catering not assured

    Its not that simple though as VA don't open up all seats for upgrade until a few hours before the flight and then only via the lounge. I've had waitlists not clear but been able to upgrade at checkin.
