    What cheeses me off

    The notification says open the App to get the code.

    What cheeses me off

    Similar logic now but on a permanent basis with CBA. You can obviously use the App of the website to access on-line banking. Now with compulsory two factor authentication on the website, if you log in on the website they send a code to the App (not the phone itself) that you need to put into the...

    The definitive thread on Qantas IT gripes

    I am trying to select my 8K Loyalty Bonus points (status credits no use as already renewed status) and all I get is "We are experiencing some problems, try again now or come back later". Try again and it gives me the same message over and over. Even when a "Loyalty" bonus is earned QF cannot get...

    Are the days of Points collecting over?

    Did none of the "cash-is-dead" people notice how hard the banks have worked to switch everyone over from the use of "no profit" cash to "profit on every transaction" credit cards, together with the growing credit card annual fees and the reducing benefits of earning points, or other benefits...

    Wise debit card

    If all else fails read the instructions ! There is no default currency as some seem to be assuming. The default is to convert from currencies held in your account, utilising the currency with the best current exchange cross-rate for the conversion.

    Significant NAB changes coming; no travel insurances on most cards from mid-2026

    Probably the thin edge of the wedge. Let's see how long it takes for the other banks to follow, but I am sure the annual fee will not be reduced to reflect the reduction in benefits.

    That is the main reason I used to wear a tie - to keep my shirt clean !

    Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

    Same offer here. My usual is $50 for 4 weeks and that suits my needs, so this offer was a "delete".

    Qantas Red Planet

    So the "survey" sounds like it is really being used as a marketing (sales) exercise rather then a means of gathering opinions and views.

    Is Norfolk Island a Qantas International Destination?

    Australian Customs operate on NLK and apply and enforce Australian requirements on the island with some local exceptions. Flights between MEL and PER do not operate from a terminal that sells duty free. Goods exported from NLK to Australia are liable to the imposition of GST, if applicable, for...

    Qantas forcing everyone to use self-service check-in kiosks in AKL

    When I passed through ALK this week I headed to the J check-in counter to get a paper boarding pass, after checking in on-line. The QF staff said I had to use the kiosk to print a boarding pass which was basically the equivalent of checking in again. I handed them my passport and it was obvious...

    Is Norfolk Island a Qantas International Destination?

    NLK airport receives flights from New Caledonia (charter) and weekly from NZ (Air Chathams). It is also a common refuel and stop-over point for private international flights heading to Australia. It is an international airport for those flights and AQIS, immigration and customs rules apply. A...

    Qantas Delays/Cancellations

    Sitting in the Qf First in Melbourne. The paassangers on QF177 from 8 am are telling the front desk they are getting emails and texts that tell them different information about what is happening. The desk was saying they do not know what is going on. Sounds like business as usual. Update: They...

    I may come up from SYD again - provided that when a final date is settled, it is suitable.

    Cathay serve wine to 3yr old.

    Loyalty lobby authors are not lawyers. They were making a comparative observation. Public perception and potential reputation damage for CX, deliberately orchestrated by the parents, will ensure a settlement in excess of whatever they might be entitled to under the convention.

    Cathay serve wine to 3yr old.

    As Loyalty Lobby noted - if it were in the USA there would be a law suit and/or a huge settlement. They said, probably correctly, in most other places (UK, Aust etc) it would be acknowledged as a mistake and no real harm done. Public statements would be made that processes will be reviewed to...

    AMP Bank Everyday Account - earns Qantas Points

    Interest is taxable and if banks start replacing interest earn with points as "interest in kind" it will only be a matter of time before the ATO starts looking at the need to recover the lost tax revenue, provided it is sufficiently significant to make the effort. They might then start looking...
