    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    Called 2 days ago to add additional card holder, as there is current promotion ending 31/05/2018 to get 3000 MR points. Guy was very friendly (from Philippines). Since he was super friendly I then made a comment saying on the lines of "Hey, I understand if I threaten to leave, your system will...

    What to do with 350,000 points?

    175K VFF, would have been enough (for us in Perth anyway), 2x J to Hong Kong/Taiwan on Singapore airlines. Ah well, each to their own I guess.

    AMEX Platinum Edge 50,000 bonus signup by 31/05/18

    Something to think about as well for the transfer. If you are ultimately going to redeem the 50K MR for Krisflyer points (KFF), do not swap to Velocity (even with the nice 15% bonus @FreddyFattler mentioned above). Math: 1:1 MR to KFF = 50000 KFF 1:1 MR to VFF (+ 15%Bonus) = 57500 VFF 1.35:1...

    Westpac Altitude/Qantas Platinum Visa/AMEX no annual fee up to 90k points

    Not worth it based on the 2 credit checks done by each institution. I understand that creditscores are bit of a joke in Australia but dont want to harm mine anyway. Though personally I cant apply anyway as had only cancelled my black 3 months ago.

    Starwood upgrade thread.

    Yeah wasn't expecting a suite or anything as still gold. Was just hoping for a higher room or something. Definitely not staying at Westin anymore, not because of the service, but of the damn huge clock!! Can't sleep in.

    I got the card 2 months ago. In the first statement I got charge $395, but 2 weeks prior to that charge I got an entry of $200 credit. I suggest you ask her to check if she got the -$200 as well.
