    Future of Credit Card Sign-Up Bonus & Earn Rates

    The image in the article looks as though it has come from a survey. I wouldn't count on that survey being from Westpac. Amex have been doing surveys, and often present scenarios based on whichever card (with an Amex attached) you claim to have. Different people get the same scenarios, but the...

    Tigerair Australia Delays/Cancellations

    I was under the impression that a Cherter and a Wet Lease were different things (main distinction being who hasoperational control of flights). Anyway, the harshness of the Indonesian response suggests to me that there is more going on than we have heard. I suspect there is some history behind...

    I can't contribute any stories, but I am always interested in stories about the hobbies and what not of others. Doesn't change what I do, but I think it is an interesting thing to write about.

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    I guess we all have a different moral compass, but I see nothing wrong with churing - I am sure banks accept that a certain amount of that will happen. Scripting 1c transactions when one would ordinarily make a single payment of a bill is a completely different stiry to me.

    Ice-cold cutlery in business class

    I don't think any carts are refigerated. Actually, there is little rerigeration of any type on many passenger planes.

    That's my understanding. But for ANZ Rewards members doing the auto-redeem things, I believe it is a 35% bonus during November. ANZ Rewards offering up to 35% bonus miles transferring to Velocity - TravelPoints

    Narrow seats on QF B789

    I don't think this is true - Non stop flights PER-LHR is bigger than Perth Airport. But one of the bones of contention that I have read is that Qantas want international facilities at their domestic terminals. This is absolutley contrary to 30 years of planning at PER which has envisaged that...

    Anybody with any experience getting wiped points reinstated?

    Until someone litigates, we will never know. But, one thing this thread tells me, is that no-one here has actually read the terms and conditions of the program. If they had, they would know that Qantas is sending the warning in the manner they said they would:

    Credit Card Surcharges with Virgin Australia

    My understanding of the regulations is that Card Payment fees can only recover a clearly defined notion of the 'reasonable cost of accepting card payments.' If they are saying they are charging other things as well, forward their response to the ACCC for investigation.

    Some Accounts suspended for "potentially" dodgy points transfers

    I guess if I had received a letter like the one shown here I would be a little miffed. But it doesn't look shoddy. Perhaps a precious petal? Just go through the investigation, and move on.
