That's right, Macq also changed the HH card to no ATO from 11th May or so, and have reduced the monthly 1;1 cap to 4,000, after that only .5 to 1. I was hoping to warehouse a lot of HH before the stopping of ATO earn, even though QF points are "better value" at .42% than the HH points but I...

Any refund that is requested will ALWAYS be a cheque or a direct deposit, as you pay the RBA when paying by card, the RBA remits funds to ATO, so basically the ATOi s just receiving a cheque from the ATO, in effect not knowing of the credit card payment. Presently having a dispute with...

Baggas mentioned an offer from Bankwest for World MC plus 50,000 pts @ $199. I feel sure this may be incorrect, as I am not aware of any offer being available for the World card, as I thought they were an "invite only" card. There was an offer from BW for the Platinum MC.

Would be interested to hear some "legal comment" re any pax who are killed in a terrorist bombing either after they have checked in or waiting to check in (in line) Would they be covered by carriers liability cover?

My suggestion would be to open inventory (make available the ability to request redemption seats) would be a great benefit for LTG, in my opinion this would be fine without the need to offer deals on WP etc as would still give access to 1st lounges when redeeming J or F seats

I think that would be difficult, what is "pro rata" for a "lifetime fee"?

Paid for Life QC about 20 years ago, now achieved LTG, can I put my Life QC on hold "for the next life" and just use my LTG?

With the demise of ANZ Black on Feb 26, I wonder if it actually cuts out on the 26th or will it be customers first statement period that ends after the 26th, ie my statement month runs 15th to 15th basically, so do you think there is a chance that I will still be able to work the system up to...

Sitting in the SIN lounge waiting for the 2350 to Syd, I understand that HK has some system to allow premium frequent flyers to register for their smart gate system, but have not followed it up yet, see what I can find and report back later.
