In that case I thank cashrewards for telling us in advance, I cannot find anything on the NSW Seniors Website !!

Does anyone know if the NSW Seniors card will still be offering the 5% off Woolies cards?

The Qantas site seems to conflict with itself. If I am travelling from Sydney to Frankfurt via Singapore and change airlines/flights at Changi into a QAN flight, can I take on board, in hand luggage Duty Free alcohol purchased in Sydney.

I have discussed this "fee waiver" matter with a number of phone staff at the CBA. They say that the bank has made a 'Business Decision" not to allow fee waivers. When I mentioned the fact that I know of one person who did get a fee waiver, no names mentioned of course, and further questioned...

Does anyone know which section of CBA or whom to contact at the CBA re a fee waiver on my Platinum Mastercard?:confused: The call centre said they couldnt help me and put me on to my local branch manager. When I contacted her, she said she doesnt have the authority to waive annual fees on...

As this is NOT an "I told you so forum" but a "i learnt from you" forum I must say that you must do your self due dilegence checks before you make any reasonable size purchase. Its not logical or sensable to say "I do not want to die rich" or any one of those ignorant rationalisation sayings...

Yes, I agree rich and miserable is not the aim of this site. But richer , smarter, well informed and happier are surely 3 of many aims. If you buy something for 2 to 4 times its actual value when on this site you had been advised/warned of the facts then you have basically wasted the time you...

Just re read my previous comments on this issue with particaular reference to the NTA backing of the units. If you do you will realise you probably paid 4 times the value of the units. As there should be a cooling off period of at least 2 weeks , just do your sums and you decide. I am only...

Why do you say that re Harvey World? As i am using them to pay for a holiday?

Has anyone else been advised of a merchant charging an extra 3% for AMEX purchases over an extra nothing "0" for Visa/Mastercard?

Could I sell it and get some value for my Ansett FF points?

Velocity NON AMEX card gives 1/2 point per dollar spent and its 120,000 points to fly SYD to London thats $240,000 spent. Just as one example. Velocity has only flight awards that are of any value, no store /petrol vouchers. That seems like a very bad rate compared with almost ALL other...

Does anyone know how many points the Velocity credit card gives you per dollar spent?

Yes, there WAS a competitor for Cabcharge a few years ago, it was "Taxi Credit". It faded away, as its costs where to high and could not compete with Cabcharge. Keep in mind Cabcharge has unusual expenses that other similiar companies do not have. For example, what if a drunk person gets...

Indonesia, interesting. A report released recently shows in the last 5 years more Australians have either died or been seriously injured in INDONESIA than in Afganistan, Iraq and Nigeria put together. Would travel to this country be wise?
