    Citi Ready Credit - 70k Velocity points with $500 balance transfer

    My reading of the terms and conditions was that you had to call to get the promotional interest rate and therefore be eligible for the bonus points but I have not yet received the points.

    Be careful not to leave too little in because your minimum payment could pay off the account in month 1. If you are in this position you might need to make a 2nd transfer because you need a positive balance to receive the bonus points.

    Visiting Niagara Falls, connecting in JFK from Int or going another day.

    Thanks, everyone for your input here it was really helpful. I think the best course of action is to travel toward another airport such as LGA, stay the night and get an early flight out to Buffalo the next day. As others have mentioned the border crossing is quite smooth, we won't be driving...

    How can/should I use my Expiring Miles?

    I booked two flights from SIN-JFK in J for APR '23 I was really impressed with the availability, especially from other countries in Asia, I had more options flying from Bali for example than SIN. Availability from Aus is really low. Is there a place or places you want to go to in particular?

    Citi Personal Loan Plus=Velocity.

    Quick question did it take a while to show the correct balance on the loan account for anyone? Do I just transfer the money to the BSB and ACC? I'm a tad confused because I would suspect the unpaid balance to be the 10k but I assume you pay into the account and the surplus credit amount will...

    Booking Mel to JFK business saver reward with stopover manually

    Thanks @vmile, taking a look now. Looks like I missed the boat on this one. So I'd really need another 190k points before March 2023 to redeem a flight in J for Melbourne to JFK :/

    Booking Mel to JFK business saver reward with stopover manually

    From as recent as May it seems I can still do it if I call up. Alternatively, is there a better use of my points because doing this will require another 100K points for two people?
