It brings in the customers though (I suspect churners are only a small proportion of people applying for cards.) I'm hoping Citi sticks around until November. After I got kiboshed for a Prestige card last week (I think my large Ready Credit facility with a large balance transfer killed off my...

Nah - they're down to close the Citi brand by the end of the year. See page 59 here: https://www.nab.com.au/content/dam/nab/documents/reports/corporate/2024-full-year-results-investor-presentation.pdf (Hopefully, they'll keep offering compelling credit cards once they do shutter the Citi brand...

Messenger was fairly efficient, unlike the phone. I suspect delays may have been due to Cyclone Alfred. I sent a message on Saturday lunchtime after ~20 minutes on hold on Saturday. This was after I realised my dad and his partner's seat selections next to mine had dropped off and (because it...

Just as EDR has become stingy, Flybuys has been a river of points for me. 2K for $50 three weeks ago, 2.4K for $60 two weeks ago, 2K for $70 last Friday, 2K for $70 earlier this week, will get 2K for $70 on Monday (and 3K for spending over $180 when I bought some gin) and complete my 10K for...

True that!

Just received an email from Krisflyer with a range of bonuses to celebrate 10 million members. Most notably, there's a 20% bonus on transfers from Krisflyer to Velocity until 31 March so you get 3871 points rather than 3226 points if you convert. Transfer bonuses also on Accor and Bonvoy...

Also just had an A359 replaced with a four-class 77W on HKG-MEL in June. I had a nice front row window in PE, only to find myself in what seems to be the dreaded row 30 instead. Ended up having to park myself and my friends down the back in row 34 to avoid the fact that row 30 is the main...

Nothing for me (except an offer of an 'in-game accessory' for Minecraft - woo). Not too worried though, as Flybuys is offering 4 x $50 for 10K points and a 5% transfer bonus on Velocity transfers.

Yes, but you can't use them on a booking with Stay Plus. So book the Stay Plus night separately

As noted, there is, but when I was looking to book, the codeshare through Qantas was about $13k (!). I’d suggest as an alternative jumping on to Expedia via Kayak as Finnair offers mixed class flights with Oz-SIN on QF in economy and SIN-HEL in business for $5k-5.5k. Then you can lounge hop to...

4x$50 for 10k (and a 2000 for $70 which stacks).

Definitely 0.5 points per dollar if you're earning Qantas points.

Did you have any large refunds post that month? Also, are you earning Citi points (1 per $1) or Qantas (0.5 per $1)?

Of course there has to be Saver availability on the days you want to fly. And there'll be carrier charges (which could be exxy ex-UK due to the APD - maybe fly out of AMS or BRU?). And if there is Saver availability, it'll typically be months out, meaning cash fares may not be much more. And you...

Latest update: after doing my carbon offset on 21 December, raising a ticket after I got the 'you've got Green tier so select your reward' email on 2 January, being told on 15 January to wait eight weeks, sending a message on 7 February once eight weeks had elapsed and calling on 15 February, I...

No

Yes they do. How do I know? Decided to upgrade my platinum (free through Mastercard using the link earlier in the thread) to titanium using the paid status match a couple of months ago. This was primarily to hopefully get early check-in at the NH Grand Hansa in Helsinki given Finnair gets in...

My Green tier saga from December continues. The carbon offset still hasn't been credited, and I was told to wait the eight weeks for it to credit (which passed last Friday). I've sent off another email but still waiting for action. Will call next Friday if I haven't heard anything.
