    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    Just checked and my rollover SC have showed up sometime in past few days. Always a relief when not having to move to actively chasing it up

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    Ditto, but my carry over is 500 sc and I'll need it this year. Expired 31 Jan. Am wondering at what point to try to contact them

    Personal reflections a year into COVID-19: What has changed? What have you missed?

    What have you missed? As others have said, definitely overseas travel. Apart from great holidays, I used to compete in ultradistance amateur sport around the world in cool places, which I haven't been able to do, and miss a lot. Had been doing really focused training over an 18 month period for...

    Pointless accumulating points?

    I'm still doing the odd card churn and still watching my points balance grow, but probably not quite as focused as sometimes before. I like the idea of having a good points war chest for when overseas travel becomes an option again, although yes I get that redemption could be an issue...

    Is anyone still Platinum?

    Still WP until 31 Jan 22. Haven't flown since March 2020. Need 500 SC to retain. I'd booked a few DSC domestic trips in next 6 months which would retain WP, but already the first trip to QLD weekend after next I suspect won't get to happen as I expect the border will close before then

    Points Club Impossible to Attain?

    Yep i obtained it again this year with no points from flying at all, it was mostly just through a couple of credit card churns plus the additional points earned hitting the min spends

    Card Promotions StGeorge Amplify Signature - 80,000 QFF bonus points for $0 fee

    Exactly the same experience as last time I had this card, I received the bonus points with the 3rd statement this week. Had hit the min spend in 1st month and stopped using the card. Cancelled it on Saturday after checking the points were in my ff account. I do like how easy this card is to...

    Is it Time to transfer/withdraw points from Velocity?

    Suprisingly, my coleman headlamp from the velocity store showed up today! I ordered it a few days before they closed the store back whenever that was, and had received the email after the store closure reassuring me my order would still be honoured, but it had been so long by now I'd given up on...

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    Points have finally shown up back in my ff account. Credit date is 7 May, so 5 days after the fees and charges were refunded on my credit card.

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    Update on this - my fees and charges showed up credited back to my credit card on 2 May, but there's still no sign of the points back onto my QF account. I didn't expect things to happen in that order! Wonder if I'm going to end up needing to chase up the points down the track

    Call Centre: "Your SC do not get wiped out for the year (2020)" [incorrect]

    Yeah I was thinking about that after I posted actually, you're right

    AMEX travel credit questions and reviews

    I've been wondering a few things around this too. I have a Qantas Amex credit card. I'd used the $450 annual credit and made a supplementary payment with it for a booking in May that was cancelled. So I now have a $620 travel credit with Amex travel for qantas flights to use up to December for a...

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    My experience has been similar to other comments on this, I've had a few refunds lately for various cancelled things to 3 cards, 2 of which I'd cancelled several months ago. In the case of NAB, I didn't even realise I'd received a refund from QF until NAB sent me a statement to advise me I had...

    Call Centre: "Your SC do not get wiped out for the year (2020)" [incorrect]

    Interesting they haven't offered to sell you the final 10sc to obtain gold status for 80K point or whatever the going rate has been. It'd be a good way for QF to reduce some points liability for something you may not be able to get much use of for a while anyway.

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    In mid-March I used manage my booking to cancel J reward flights to and from USA (as seperate PNRs) scheduled for June and August. Got points and cash back for the August flight home pretty quickly, but not for the June flight there which seemed to be lingering in manage my bookings but with a...
