I've had a couple of the QFF carry-on bags now, the first one lasted over five years of pretty brutal treatment and the second one is still going strong. The design is pretty good overall, though they modified the design a bit on the newer one which I didn't find quite as good (the main...

I received the offer as well - my points promo was also 5000 points for every ten transactions over $30, though mine was to a maximum of 25,000 points. Promo period is from 1st November - 31st January, and sign-up for the card has to be undertaken by 30 September. For me it's certainly worth...

And also remember by redeeming points you're forgoing the points you would have earnt with a paid ticket too, along with any progress towards status.

Add me to those that lost 1,000 points yesterday and 3,000 points today - though at least that took me back to zero in total, rather than with a negative total out of all this.

Re: CBA AMEX offering Citibank Citibusiness (Fee $130 + $30 sup): Visa $1 = 1.25 QFF - 80,000 cap per year (transfer in multiples of 10,000). Not holding my breath on how much longer they'll be able to keep that earning rate though, given the way the competition is going. But it's now by...

Given that there was another thread that mentioned a big promotion coming in September to encourage everyday spending (in Supermarkets/Petrol Stations etc etc) it certainly sounds plausible that it's linked in with that. Oh well, time to run down all the supplies between now and September I...

Certainly concurs with my experience, though there's a couple of others that seem to have gone beyond that already. I guess we'll see in the next couple of days if more people hit that barrier.

Well it looks like the points have stopped for me - I've received 4x1000 points, the last on the 9th of August. I've had about 15 transactions since then and no more appearing. Hopefully that's not the monthly cap - though I guess at least it won't take too much in the way of effort to reach...

Having transferred points just last week, I can guarantee the Citibusiness Visa definitely still allows for transfers to QFF at a 1:1 basis (in multiples of 10,000) - you just have to phone to transfer the points, the online transfer option has been removed. At 1.25 points per $1 spent it's...

Just checked my Membership Rewards account and noticed a couple of notations of "Bonus 1,000 points for 5 transactions" - looks like it commenced from the start of this month. Don't have any more details at this point and haven't received anything in the mail. I haven't registered for...

I haven't had the pleasure unfortunately in CGK, only using the lounge that Qantas uses there (though at least that's been nicely renovated now - but is still just OK) and the Citibank lounge (which was pretty ordinary, but given it was Rp50,000 for entry with a Citibank card, and just buying a...

Agreed that the Garuda website isn't much help. I found info at FIRST LOOK: Garuda Indonesia's new cabin products - Business Traveller Asia in relation to the seats, including a pic of the lay flat seat in the A330-200. I'm sure more pics will pop up soon enough with the flights commencing now...

Just noticed that Garuda has some pretty cheap fares for the new SYD-CGK service they've just commenced. The economy class fares are around $650 return (a bit less on travel.com.au and others no doubt) but more surprisingly is the business class fares for under $1200 return. Given the new...

I'd recommend buying Ambassador status for a stay like that (well so long as the stay is booked through the InterContinental/Priority Club website and the stay will include a weekend stay anyway). Most of the time the rate at IC GS is more than US$150 per night anyway, so you'll save money...

All linked now for me as well! :D

My bonus points are still posting fine as well.

Unfortunately it appears the confusion is on your behalf there Gordo. The QFF program will be linked to the Everyday Rewards card (the orange card). On the new card that was attached to the brochure there is a new Woolworths logo and a QFF logo where the Caltex/Woolworths logos are on the...

The terms listed on the back of the brochure are: Qantas Frequent Flyer: 1. Earning of Qantas Frequent Flyer points through Everyday Rewards is subject to the Everyday Rewards Terms and Conditions. The following are only some of the applicable terms. (a) To be eligible to earn Qantas...

I spotted a new Everyday Rewards brochure in my local Woolworths which has the details of the QFF earning (though doesn't outline when it actually happens - I suspect they put it out early). Quoting from the brochure:

I've been paying by Direct Debit on Amex for a couple of years now (they had a promo giving you 2000 points for signing up for it back then). It hadn't been available as a payment option on their website in the past though from what I can recall - so definitely a bonus.
