It seems like I won't be receiving mine this week.

Thanks for the advice. As far as I understand, it doesn't cost me anything unless it takes me a while to pay it off. It also covers me for lost or stolen cards, issues when I'm overseas etc, which is what I'd like to be covered for. I'll look into it a bit closer as it's proven useful with my 28...

Makes sense. I guess it would be a good idea to take it then, as I don't have income protection. I pay my stuff as soon as I put it on the card anyway, so I wouldn't be hit by any fees anyway.

It's a Bankwest Qantas Mastercard – the basic one. Gold and Platinum come with Credit Card Protection, which is what I actually meant by 'insurance' (pardon my phrasing–I wrote the comment on the go).

I was approved the Bankwest Qantas Mastercard (working in not for profit and all that; nevertheless, the credit limit's rather high). It was mailed out to me on Monday, so I'm waiting for it to arrive so I can book my flights to Europe. Would you recommend getting insurance? I have it with my...

I just talked to a Qantas rep and was told that a simple load of A$1000 is sufficient to become eligible for the 3,000 QFF points. I was told no currency transfer is needed. I'd still check that though, as I've been burnt before. I guess you can always spend that grand in Australia, too. Edit...

Gosh, why does it always have to be so complicated – can't they just explain what we need to do and be done with it?!

Yeah, I've no idea why I expected that to happen. Hope perhaps? :P

Oh yeah, my mistake. I was asking about adding the QF flight number, not just adding the QFF number. It's possible to add the QFF number while booking, but I was also trying to find out if they allow the airline code change as well. So, the latter is not possible.

I was just told this is not possible. As long as I still get SCs, I'm not fussed.

Thanks for that, moa999.

I'll check it out, thanks. I should also check MH – they might have some good deals, which might get me some decent SCs.

Thanks for that, Aus ATC. I am after SCs indeed, as I'm chasing Gold again. I'll be around 160 short, so I'm aiming to get really close to that. QF has flights for around 1,5000 (vs. 1,150 with CX). I'll look into PE, but I'm afraid it might be a bit too expensive.

Has the Live Chat become unavailable? I can't see it on the website. :confused: Edit: All right, I just saw it pop up the first time.

Hi, I've fried to figure it out, but most of the posts are rather old, so I thought I'd ask here. I'm checking out flights from Perth to Manila and although I can easily figure out the SCs on QF, I can't figure out what I'd get on CX (via HKG). The website says that Status Credits are earned...

Hi, I've got a $10 Woolworths coupon to give away with today as the end date. If someone's doing some online shopping and could use it, PM me and I'll send you the code. Cheers! P.S. I hope I'm posting this in the right spot.

Hi, everyone. After weeks and weeks of emailing and phoning Bankwest, talking to different representatives and (senior) managers and trying to sort it out, I lodged a dispute with FOS. It was long overdue and it wasn't even about the points for me anymore, but a matter of principle. I ended up...

I'll never move away from Silver. :-|

Sure thing. The Qantas consultant said that he couldn't see an account linked up and that the points are probably getting accumulated with Bankwest until I give them my QFF number. I told him that I received some points (from the amount kept in the account and the transactions made) so they...
