    4 Velocity rewards plus credit card rewards

    I have done a quick google search and these Vcards cards don't seem to come up. The BP gift cards seem to be only of use to buy petrol at BP stations. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance

    Westfield XS card

    If all else fails, just say you're paying by savings or whatever the card uses, act dumb and rotate between outlets. In the past I did a lot of testing of different products, this included pre-paid and refillable cards, this included refilling with gift cards - tried a lot of things. Often it...

    Westfield XS card

    So it may not work on AMEX OWNED CCs, but it can/could work on bank/store issued cc's. Only 2 thinks that need to be checked / updated on: 1) Classed as a cash advance, Yes or No? (name/shame any that are cash advance on here) 2) Every month when the statement(s) (ie: more then 1 card...

    How much are frequent flier points worth? [in relation to CC programs]

    Hi, I hope this isn't too much of a newbie question but I haven't found the answer by searching. I consider myself a bit of a credit card reward aficionado. I generally convert my points to either gift cards or cash back. I've found I tend to get approx 1.7% cash back/gift card reward on my...

    Love...... The Journey

    Mon 9 Apr Now you're entering the Virgin Australia Lounge at SYD T2 I approached the front desk at the lounge and explained the situation with my checked bag and wanting to use the lounge. The front desk attendant seemed a bit annoyed at my story, so when she asked how long was I going to...

    New EDR PrePaid Mastercard - very handy for mums!

    Having looked at this I thought I should provide some comment. Each to their own situation and preference of course. It appears targeted towards people in financially insecure situations, similar to secured credit cards in the US so tread carefully. There are cancellation fee and fees for when...

    Credit Card rewarding points for BPAY

    NB, AFAIK there is no way to get a cash advance in Australia, and earn points. In the USA, you can get cash (coins) from the Mint, for free ( Buy Presidential Dollar Coins with CC @ Face Value, Free Shipping - Page 604 - FlyerTalk Forums ). You might be able to get something like cash, i.e...

    Westpac Singapore KrisFlyer Credit Card

    I think what Sarge1 was really asking is that can they buy some cash equivalent so that they can cycle the card and get endless points for no cost and just the effort of doing so. In Australia the answer to this is generally no. In Australia you can buy Gift Cards and the like (and eran...

    Westpac Singapore KrisFlyer Credit Card

    Both. Experiences vary. Some people have earned points on purchasing cash instruments and other transactions by other members have been unsuccessful. For instance, buying a $100 gift card at Coles would probably earn points as Westpac may not be able ot determine the nature of the purchase...

    Advice: Points for Credit Redemption

    Good suggestion, thanks. Checked and it was only I think Freedom furniture and some other jewellery shop vouchers with discounts, not really helpful. I think I might just do a cash advance on my Citibank visa, they have a promo of 9.99% for 12 months, paying some interest is probably better...

    Opt in to Earn 10 Bonus Points for every $1 spent

    It states on the back of the card that it is not redeemable for cash. (With grand visions of being a new Pudding Guy I had thought briefly about cashing in the card for many re-uses!!!!.....so was looking for the fine print on this!!!) Therefore the card is effectively purchasing goods with...

    Travel between AUS and Europe?

    Re: CC points to AA With the Amex Rewards Maximiser, you are automatically enrolled in Ascent, which has this in its T&Cs: So, the answer is no, you cannot accrue points for cash advances using the Amex RM and I doubt for any other Amex card - at least that's the way it looks on their website.

    purchase gift cards

    Yep. I do this regularly. I can buy the $500 cards for $475, making it a good value way of earning Amex points and saving 5% on grocery purchases. Definately seen as a normal purchase from Amex and not a cash advance - at least the way I buy them through API.

    purchase gift cards

    Is buying a gift card from coles or woolworths treated the same as a regular purchase as far as Amex is concerned? ie, not treated like a cash advance?
