    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    So its ok to misrepresent others through using their name and email for your benefit, however paying a phone bill which is well within the terms and conditions is abuse? Also, i have no intention to take this card overseas, that's what the citibank card is for. You'll need to come up with a...

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    Its scheme debit, so from the merchants prospective it looks like a CC. Fees for debit generally are a fixed rate though however the bank handling the transactions probably charge the same rate (normally a percentage)

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    My regular card was deactivated within a week of receiving the platinum card, from the sounds of it though it is a manual process and depends really if the staff memeber remembers to follow it up.

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    The standard card appears to have been cancelled, I think the guy who took my request was quite alert. He said specifically last week that he would contact me today to arrange to cancel the card. No one contacted me however. I'll go to a BW branch tomorrow and ask to be downgraded to the...

    Optus have done a horrible job managing this. If the 1c payments really offended them, all they needed to do was stick a captcha on the payment screen. Actually i better not give them ideas :oops:

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    I tried applying for a second Qantas transaction account but it was denied since I already had one open. There is a clause in the online application process saying that you're only limited to the one account. Was your account approved in error by the bank? Maybe I can try and open a second at...

    I wouldn't ruin your credit rating over it. I'm not sure if the TIO would really do anything about it since other payment types are still accepted (unless CC payments are explicitly mentioned on the contract, in that case it would be a breach of contract)? On another note, if you weren't happy...

    For now at least. I was advised that the standard card would be cancelled, this is yet to happen.

    The transaction points normally get posted after the month has finished. Last month it was on the 4th. I didn't get any points on the first month, instead they credited them on the following months statement.

    I'll be getting a letter from the SDRO in the coming weeks. I wonder if micro payments are accepted :p

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    Absolutely identical with same ccv and expiry. I requested a platinum card today and was advised that the existing card will be deactivated, I'm assuming this isn't the case, unless they have changed it?

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    Awesome! I actually called up a while back and said that my card had snapped, unfortunately they sent out a replacement card which was identical to the original. I'm going to order a platinum card now. In addition you can also set up an awards account. Same principle as the QF account, its just...

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    The MasterCard website has a table with all the possible fees levied my MC. The fee for micro payments(≤ AUD 15) on a debit MC is $0.004. In reality though the bank would probably charge a higher rate on top of this. Interchange rates | MasterCard®

    ANZ Platinum, 50k bonus QFF points after $1500 spend, no annual fee first year

    Points got posted to FF account today on the base card. I'm tempted to close the account and reopen. Considering they were allocated prior to me spending $1500, I suspect their system might have a few more loopholes.

    ANZ Platinum, 50k bonus QFF points after $1500 spend, no annual fee first year

    I have to make a payment next week which is above my credit limit. Would I be able to deposit the amount into the card so it is in surplus, and make the payment following this? Would FF points be credited?

    Amazing video of Pyongyang (short at 3.5 mins)

    I visited NK last july during the victory day celebrations. The Air Kyro flight in was interesting... That DHL truck at the end was strange, I don't remember seeing anything like that. The only foreign vehicles I saw were those from WHO. Edit: apparently DHL have been operating in NK since 97'...
