I just noticed that HSBC has increased their bonus points from 10,000 to 20,000 for their Platinum Qantas Credit Card. It looks like it runs until the 31st of March at this point. Full details can be found at HSBC Platinum Qantas Credit Card | HSBC Australia - for those that don't have QP access...

I got a similar offer, but at 5.99% interest for the balance transfer - so yes, it can get even lamer. :)

Just a heads-up for those who are in the Sydney CBD - the Woolworths at Town Hall now sells bus tickets and travel passes. Just bought myself a significant number of them given the forthcoming price rise on the 2nd of January and with the additional hope that they qualify for the 5x bonus points...

The new HSBC Platinum Qantas Credit Card appears to tick all the boxes - see Qantas Credit Card - Platinum Qantas credit card rewards | HSBC Australia for more details. It earns 1 QFF point per dollar (or 2 points per dollar spent overseas). It also includes travel insurance (when travel is...

[/LIST]Thanks for the confirmation and good to have you on board. Given my Platinum card comes up for renewal in March the decision becomes a very easy one whether to keep the card or not.

Re: Qantas Everyday Rewards Qantas Credit Card 1st Birthday. Celebrations...or not... I'll add my voice to the others in regards to getting the annual fee waived. Once I paid down the balance to zero and called to cancel they waived the fee. Before paying it down they offered 1000 points to...

I was just in Coles last night and at the bottom of the receipt there was a couple of extra deals for earning bonus Fly Buys points (one was 300 points for $25 worth of meat or fish and the other was for triple Fly Buys points). I noticed the following link provides more details -...

Has anyone else seen any details about this offer? It doesn't appear to be on the Jetstar MasterCard website at the moment, but certainly makes it a more attractive choice if that option becomes open to everyone.

I just received an email from Garuda with some very competitive pricing through to Amsterdam for next year. It does mention in the small print that seasonal surcharges apply, so I'd imagine the lowest price is only available in the FEB/MAR timeframe. Yes, it is Garuda still, so not a desired...

Add me to the list of those that received the invite in the mail today as well. Also hopeful that it can be used by a supplimentary card holder rather than me too.

Yep, I got exactly the same letter, I'll be taking the credit limit increase too.

I'm another of those that received the offer - I got it back in April, running from mid-May 2011 for 12 months. I've taken up the offer, I'm sure I can make use of it before paying it all off next year. The rate's clearly reflected on the statements, so that's a reassuring positive.

Re: QF CEO speech - dom fare restrucure, profit update, RR settlement, Int Route chan Being a semi-regular flyer on the CGK route I wouldn't be surprised to see that being shifted to JQ (though the J class cabin does usually seem pretty full). But with GA going from all flights going via DPS...

Received the following details in an email from Garuda Indonesia - might be of interest to some depending on their destination: Ex Sydney Ex Melbourne Jakarta $608* $589* Bali $608* $869* Kuala Lumpur $734* $714* Singapore $740* $721* Bangkok $742* $722* Canton $880* $860* Hong Kong...

Further to Mal's experience, I just completed a stay booked through hotels.com and I also received the 5x bonus points at the same time that the charge hit my MR account. I didn't go through the AMEX landing page - actually I redirected through from hotelscombined.com. Not too shabby given that...

I was offered a $450 credit to retain the card. My wife's pressure to cancel the card due to the $900 fee was the reason given (and my wife's spend on the card was probably the reason they wanted to retain me! :p ).

For me the bonus offer this week was to spend $15-$25 on Vitamins - 150 points for $15, 200 points for $25-$35 and 300 points for $35 or more.

Re: Can anybody better this earn rate? Was just in at WW Town Hall in Sydney and they have 90ml bottles of Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner for $2.99 each - 66.88 points per dollar. As an added bonus, they're small enough so you can carry them on the plane, if you feel the need for a mid-air...

The fare type of the original ticket is MHBasic: MHbasic Discount level: Up to 65% Where to buy: All channels Advance Purchase: Anytime Payment Ticketing: deadline applies Baggage Allowance: 20 kg* Advance seat selection: Not allowed Enrich Miles: 70% Change of booking: For a fee Upgrade: For...

Just checked for my forthcoming flights on MAS and for SYD-KUL the upgrade would be $530 and for KUL-CGK would be $92. Probably more than I'd be looking to spend, but more reasonable than the previously quoted price from Perth.
