Yes $1450 seems a bit steep but if you add all the benefits it's easy to get enough value out of it to justify the yearly fee and definitely worth it in the first year thanks to those 200k bonus points :) Adding my referral link below, if you want to share the love I'd appreciate those 45k...

They usually look after elite members very well when it comes to upgrades, although during school holidays the whole place is often fully booked. Make sure you go back with your newly minted Platinum status during a less busy period of the year and you'll definitely notice the difference!

Nice! Nope nothing here, you must be spending quite a lot on your card?!

Nice! Did you have many points in your account? I have north of 1 million points, not too keen to play the cancellation game in case the go up in smoke...

What a joke - at the end of the day some of the benefits of the Platinum Charge card are simply gone (eg access to VA lounges) others are borderline useless (eg Priority Pass) and others are much harder to redeem thanks to travel restrictions (eg travel credit, Accor Plus, etc). Big fail from...

I received the same email from AFR with subscription ending 31/10 (Platinum Charge) Card is due for renewal in November, will definitely that it up with AMEX

Sorry I never stayed at the Lindrum, I usually stay at the Sofitel (when they have decent specials) or the Pullman on The Park (not very central but only a quick tram ride to/from the CBD)

Yes I've been to the Pullman Melbourne on Swanston earlier in the year (pre-Covid), love the location being so central and the executive lounge (I'm Platinum so I get free access) but then again the lounge is probably still closed atm

Talk about surprise pack :) Actually I did order a bottle of wine to go with it so I could use the $50 discount voucher mentioned earlier and the AP tracking is for 2 boxes... can't wait to see what's inside! It's coming today Most recent update Onboard for delivery

Mine also listed as Shipped - 1 case Placed on 19 October 2019 at 12AM

I ordered just one case, personally I feel if customers abuse the system by ordering multiple cases it simply increases the chances of having the merchant cancelling all orders and spoiling the fun for everyone else.

I ordered a case last night, let's hope they don't cancel...

Pretty good deal for $49 annual fee in the first year (normally $149) and you earn 140,000 Citi rewards Points 140,000 Citi rewards Points convert to... 56,000 Velocity Points (2.5:1), or 46,666 Skywards Miles (3:1), or 46,666 KrisFlyer Miles (3:1) ... and quite regularly Citi & Virgin...

Never had an issue, only drawback when dining with other "Accor Plus friends" (we managed to convert quite a few over the years...) is having to hand over a pile of smartphones to the waiter :)

Definitely against T&Cs, on the other hand I've never been asked for ID when using it at restaurants.

Yess breakfast is also included - keep in mind it's 50% discount for 2 ppl, 33% for 3 ppl, 25% for 4 and so on

Has anyone else had issues claiming the free brekkie for Platinum? I stayed at Q Station in Manly earlier in the week - clearly showing in the list of APAC hotels where Accor Plat are entitled to free brekkie here: List of hotels with an Executive Lounge and I had to argue with the manager to...
