Good to know. Have booked using $400 explorer credit and may need to cancel so was wondering what happened given the statement credit is already in my account. Seems I should hopefully be able to cancel and keep the $400 statement credit (if I need to cancel). Fingers crossed anyway.

Thanks for the updates. Just confirming, for the people who have received their Aeroplan bonus points. That they came through without transferring your HSBC star alliance points to Aeroplan?

I was also rejected recently, but for Amex Explorer. It would have been my third time holding the card and getting the sign up bonus. Each time held the card for just under 1 year and waited around 2 years between closing and reapplying. Interestingly, I wasn’t asked for any payslips or...

Domestically have got in with 4 people on the single membership (member, an adult guest and 2 children). This has been every time we have tried (around 20 times to date). Sometimes let known that we are not entitled to it. But have always been let in to date. Obviously doesn’t mean you will...

Thanks. I hadn’t tried to book since virgin available to book online. Seems like the online system still has bugs to be ironed out.

Any luck with this one? I am having the same issue. Search only show me the first few flights of the day. I want to book an afternoon flight, but not an option. Same on every date. Award flights are available on velocity website.

Anyone know. If I apply for this card late 2023. Meet the minimum spend early 2024 and request Air Canada Status, whether this would extend until end of 2025 or end of 2024? i.e. does the time start on the year the credit card was applied to or the year min spend reached and status commences?

Cheers for posting. Not totally disastrous. But minimal sweet spots now for virgin Australia. The way I read it, best deal seems to be less than 500 mile trip business class (10k Etihad Guest v 15.5k Velocity) - e.g. SYD-BNE, SYD-MEL, etc. Otherwise there are a few marginally better than using...

Did anyone end up doing this. I am hoping to apply for 2 x 250sc’s (1 for me, 1 for partner using family pooling). If I can hold off on earning the eligible sectors for a bit to activate closer to the expiry of kris flyer gold then maximise time with either kris flyer or velocity gold. But...

Any experience with signing up for the qantas sign up bonus (70k), but then quickly changing for the velocity earn (1.5pt/$ spent Internationally). Keen for the card for some upcoming international transactions and international trips.

Anyone have any experience with paying off a greater amount so the card is in positive credit to enable an upcoming charge which is in excess of the maximum credit limit? Not sure if this will work or has a fee attached?

Thanks for the update. I have an NAB card I plan to hold for a few more months as it holds my travel insurance for an upcoming trip and a Citi card I am about to cancel, so was tossing up the order of cancelling and applying for the prestige or whether to leave this one alone. Either way, at...

Thankyou. Flying economy. Will give it a go and see what happens.

Am I right in my reading that expiry is now end of 2023? Valid for travel by 31 December 2023. Travel must be booked by 31 December 2023...

Any experience with getting this card approved with another Citi and/or NAB card already in your wallet?
