    What's your Uber experience?

    I dont think they would consider one call harassment, seems like there wasnt any threats made or anything. I would say he would of been booted, or given a good talking to. If you reported he called you after the fact, from what I have heard they would drop him straight away

    Will Sq hold an award (phone) booking whilst pts are being transferred?

    Are you transferring from VA or credit card? If its VA all reports are it transfers straight away, so u could ring up find the flight, transfer and book all pretty quickly. credit cards probably a little longer, might have to have them find 2 flights that suit? just to hedge your bets

    VA can't access my booking - Any advice?

    Try asking delta for your virgin PNR which should be different to the delta PNR number, that's the only thing i can think of... if that doesn't work you might have to try tp have it escalated, probably with delta first

    AMEX Qantas card vs Black or Platinum card from Big 4
