    Gift Cards at Supermarkets

    A potential word of warning. Over the past few days I've been into three Perth Metro Coles stores to source $100 Coles Gift Mastercards. In all three, the remaining cardboard sleeves had been opened, and the card removed. At first I didn't think anything of it - now I'm starting to think...

    Gift Cards at Supermarkets

    Nope. DJ's are able to be redeemed online - did so today. Used a $50 gift card I purchased at coles, and paid the remaining $25 of my purchase using my Visa.

    VA won the 2016 Freddy Award in the following categories; Program of the Year Best Customer Service Best Redemption Ability Don't forget to vote for them again this year! :p [As an aside, I agree how awful VA is to redeem, being based in PER. Europe and USA is difficult, unless you want to...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Explorer Offers & Discussion

    Sounds like the agent I spoke with a few weeks ago, she was said I was smart to move to Ascent given the better value. Points transferred almost instantly. Only problem - the $400 travel credit disappeared from Amex travel website upon linking. I've had to call a few times to chase it up.

    American Express Explorer Referrals now live - 110,000 points!

    Re: AMEX Explorer referral With only a few days left, I'll throw my referral link out there again; http://amex.com.au/refer/wesleed0nK The card costs $395 a year, but is easily offset by the $400 Amex travel credit which can be spent on flights, hotels etc. In addition, by using my referral...

    VA v Etihad

    By mid year, they'll only be flying to AUH from PER, and few days a week at that. I'd select the EY flight from SYD.

    EY J award flights following changes

    I won't redeem my points for EY following the fee introduction. Not only do I consider the fees too steep, but I wasn't impressed with EY after my J redemption last year. AUH is an awful place to transit - I've always found the corridor to transit security to be packed and disorganized, with...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Explorer Offers & Discussion

    For those who have linked their Explorer Rewards to their Plat Edge Rewards - do you still keep the $400 Amex travel credit when you log into the travel portal, after the points have been transferred across?

    Woolworths reviewing partnership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

    I'm in a battle for 8,700 points which were manually transferred back in November. Still no sign of them. It's been a joke - passed from supervisor to supervisor, who keep telling me that the 'help desk' is still looking into it. As an aside, the automated transfer on 15 December worked...

    Duty Free Alcohol Rip off

    I just online pre-purchased 2 bottles of Bombay Saphire (1 Litre) for $56 AUD from JR Duty Free Perth Airport. Very happy with that price.

    Woolworths reviewing partnership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

    I always found that they were willing to put through the conversion request immediately (subject to x amount of days to transfer across), instead of waiting. However, as is anything Woolworths related - it involves a lot of patience, and many follow up telephone calls. From my experience, if...
