    Fuel top up con

    I personally rent from Hertz (due to Pres. Circle status and cushy CDP code) but I also know an Avis outlet and how the Avis system works. When checking out, there is a fuel out code, y/Gx. x = integer of /8th of how full the tank is, so it can either be 7/8th full or full (or less). This...

    Error with AdBlock Detection

    Said laptop has since been formatted after my last post, and hasn't been used much since. At the moment, I'm on a V/Line train and tetethered through my mobile, and again I received a Adblocker warning. I am using Chrome, I am signed in to my Google account and so the same extensions that are on...

    Qantas - Sorry But I Am Over You

    I put a company wide ban on fuel reimbursements for 7 Eleven purchases following the 7 Corners revelations about wages. But, now I read about Caltex etc and so a 'boycott list' just becomes all too hard.. Especially as I'm already managing a kill list, revenge list.. and forth

    Woman Goes Through X-ray Machine

    I put a bag thru at SYD once that apparently touched the sides. This caused the machine to shutdown (line was closed and everyone diverted to adjoining lines). If the machines are this touchy, lets not use them as an alternative to getting medical imaging. I'm pretty sure they take a y & z...

    Toronto collision: passengers insist on taking carryons

    I like to board last because standing in a line of people in an aisle, watching one person who can't think "if I stop fumbling looking for something in my suitcase before putting it in to the overhead locker and step out of the aisle for a few seconds, 20 people can pass me and we can get on our...

    Hertz Rent-a-Car - Some Community notices

    Due to the CDP attached to my profile, I'm fairly loyal to Hertz (and have been a pres. circle member for quite some time). In a previous post, I happily reported that I've had no billing dramas or faux damage reports, and while the latter is still true, there are some cracks starting to appear...

    Hit the shops and be rewarded - QF points on non earning MasterCards

    I received some spam welcome correspondence from the flying roo today about their new My Cards program. Qantas Mall My sceptical understanding of it is that you allow QF to access your transaction data from other Mastercards in exchange for bonus points when you accept offers from affiliated...

    Error with AdBlock Detection

    I had this popup appear today for the first time while using my laptop (Chrome). I don't, nor have I ever used Adblocker. The only difference today is I'm on the family's wifi (which is using a stock standard iiNet modem)

    Free Pair of Qantas Gold Q bag tags

    Sorry @Casual Class another user PM'd me 7 minutes before your message... Unless I cut them both in half and give you two halves each?

    Free Pair of Qantas Gold Q bag tags

    Just received a pair of gold Qantas Q tags in the post. Having only received a pair not long ago (reaching silver) I really have no use for these. Free to a good home. First in, best dressed.

    Fuel top up con

    Depends on the location (and the brand). If its a franchise, then up to 50% But franchise or corporate, of course, there'd be an incentive to upsell

    Destinations you wouldn't go to?

    India - My perception is the whole country is just overpopulated, full of beggers and has a poor human:toilet ratio. Been to Vietnam earlier in the year though, felt completely safe (though I was in regional DaNang)
