    Ta, I was viewing on my phone and got a bit lost in the off-topic comments 😊

    That sound sensible! Can I ask which insurer you used?

    I've just encountered the same problem with the $250 card. 'Your payment has been declined. Please contact your financial institution'

    ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

    Thanks for the heads-up on the gift cards! I just purchased one $750 Mobile Pay egift card, used it for ATO. I'll wait to see if the VBF points post before doing more. I wondered if the Activ VISA Egift card from the same site (giftz.com.au) might serve the same purpose, as the activation...

    Coles gift card offers

    Thanks for the tip! This saved me $$$ on a new Macbook Air at officeworks. And cheers to the VERY patient OW staff member who put through my 37 gift cards (I could only find $50 and $30 cards, since it was the last day of the offer). :)

    Card Promotions Velocity Flyer Card: 25,000 Velocity Pts (with $1500 Spend Each Month) for 4 Months, $129 Virgin Voucher, $64 Fee @ Virgin Money

    I had the same thing happen. The card took 2 weeks to show up, which left me with 2 weeks left until the end of the statement period. I had no idea until the statement appeared, and of course by then it is too late. Apparently the statement period started the day they approved the card. After...

    Card Promotions Velocity Flyer Card: 25,000 Velocity Pts (with $1500 Spend Each Month) for 4 Months, $129 Virgin Voucher, $64 Fee @ Virgin Money

    Don't stress to much, all might be fine. After I was approved (but days before I got my card), I was emailed a statement showing $0 balance, over the period of 20 March-20 March. As I didn't have my card I hadn't even managed to activate it. I had to speak to customer service a week later on...

    Out on the street today I’ve noticed a lot less people in masks, the majority have been wearing them outdoors too.

    Singapore Airlines dropping mask wearing mandate

    I’m flying SIN to MEL at 12.25 am Monday. I am really hoping at the stroke of midnight we’re able to take masks off. It will be interesting to see what happens :)

    Is hotel housekeeping a lost art?

    I must have passed you at the breakfast! We arrived on 8th August, and just arrived in Singapore last night after a stay of ten days at the E&O. It was my third visit, I also love the hotel. I've stayed in the Victory Annexe all 3 times. I was surprised to see online that the annexe building (as...

    BYO Eye Mask and Ear Plugs in SQ Business ?

    When we got to our seats there was already eye masks, socks etc, we didn’t have to ask for any of that. We just had to ask for the amenity kits. I can see that it could cut down on waste, I guess that’s a positive, but the kits are very underwhelming if you have memories of how they were years ago.

    BYO Eye Mask and Ear Plugs in SQ Business ?

    We also got the little green Penhaligon ones on request on SQ218. Little hand cream, lip balm and face mist. Once you’ve had the first class kits these seem so tiny, but anything is nice. Note that the hand cream and face mist are available in the toilet area on the plane anyway, so it’s only...
