    ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

    That's a bit worrying. How do they even know if you have a VBFY account? Do you need to signup to the giftz.com.au and then link it with your VBFY account? thanks Edit: I found this in T&C's, see blue highlight, i think this rules the 'mobile pay' Mastercard out of receiving the points?

    Can anyone use this to pay a tax bill or is it for business' only? Do you simply purchase the pre-paid card and use it to pay ATO directly? thanks

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Hi guys, I was wondering what the process is for transferring AU MR points to US MR reward points. How do you initiate this? I have read upthread this can be done only once per year. Is that once per Jan-Dec period or do you have to wait 12 months to transfer again? thanks

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I can't see any swift details or any account numbers on the amex statement. To make things a bit more complicated for some reason I cant login to the amex site using my Amex US login details. I do have access to the amex US app on my phone though.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    This is interesting. This might be the reason why the Amex card is not being delivered to my friends apartment if the second line includes the apartment no. We will need to call Amex again and try for a third delivery..

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I noticed you said you opened a Chase checking account. I had a look at their application process and note that they ask if you are a USA citizen or have a green card, if you answer no to both then then you can't progress. How did you get around that? Additionally they ask for a US drivers...

    Thanks for the tip. Is there a way to manage this? Can you set it up for no automatic repayment or do you need to say retain a balance owing of say 10 dollars and keep automatic repayments at 1 dollar per month? thanks

    Thanks. And that balance can be as low as $1? So transfer 500 out to my own bank, then transfer 499 back the next day and then wait for points?

    Why do you need to keep it open for 4 months? Is this in the terms somewhere or is this how long it takes to get the points? thanks
