Online?? None of my offers are limited to online only. Thankfully.

The opportunist in me says to have a rummage through those bags. At the very least, I'd be inclined to hand it to a hostie with information of the owners location and, if appropriate, ask them to remind the pax that rows 15 and beyond should be boarding from the rear.

I got a roll of dog food. The Staffy will be delighted.

On my explorer (nice surprise) and supps (nicer surprise). Not on Vel plat (no surprise).

Never had to do it personally but the pain would be better than potentially having to deal with a suspended or cancelled card, or juggling part payments regularly to stay under $3k.

Really interesting post, thanks. As someone who has only had a brief view of the aged care system from the outside but is likely to be forced to engage soon, this info is utterly frightening. I'm sure a separate thread for aged care discussion would be useful and well patronised. The thing...

That's not correct. I've put more than the limit on my card several times but not in one go though. I'd pay the 5k in a few installments, paying it off immediately and if its going to be regular thing get a limit increase.

The flight schedule makes it rather difficult to combine CCK with XCH. Stopovers are permitted but essentially you have to stay on each for seven days. I don't have time for that, and would probably baulk at the cost anyway, which is a pity as I have the opportunity to go on Nov 17 which is...

PSA regarding the Tech Head cards via the Special GC deals via Amex. The Tech Head cards seem to no longer work for utilities no matter the payment method. I couldn't use one to pay Origin or actweAGL direct, via postbillpay, or via paypal on postbillpay. Those utilities don't have paypal as...

Same boat here it seems. In July I had ~8k with ~5k on VA needed. Now I have ~7.3k with ~4.7k on VA needed (ie all). Not something I will focus on.

There is a temporary unavailability of redemptions across the program between those dates. But SQ, Etihad, Qatar and Cathay will not be redemption partners from 16 Nov.

It would be easier to make decisions if NAB provided some/any info relating to points after the MyCard migration.

It was 20x three weeks ago for almost the same cards. Annoyingly the retailer I wanted (Officeworks) wasn't on a $100 card then so I got stacks of $50's. The patience of some checkout dude is going to be tested.

I’d check the T&Cs for any cutoff time past the booking time that invalidates the booking. If there’s not one then picking up late is not an issue. I’ve done that quite a lot in Australia (usually hertz Mitchell act) without any issue. But I did it in Italy with a car through Rentalcars.Com and...

Don't forget that EK now also limits F awards to its own elites, meaning that transferring credit card points to EK without Skywards status there has limited use. Another nail in my FFP coffin.

Are phone bookings the norm for Cathay awards? I'm also thinking this is a good deal for my Amex points but know little about the Asia Miles program.

Not limited to QF Hotels. I recently tried to book on Expedia. After doing plenty of searches over a week, where the price didn't change, I came back to book and was quoted that price [X]. When I hit go to checkout a few seconds later, a box appeared saying something like "We hate it when...

Only in the worst possible scenario does 100k-120k points cost $120k to $240k plus surcharges. This weeks Woollies gift card offer sees 100k QFF cost a tick under $1,200. And that's not an especially good deal but you do end up with $20,000 of visa cards to pay bills that wouldn't normally...

Ampolcash is listed as a retailer. As is BP and Caltex. The Citi cashback offers are ending soon, aren't they?

$110 for 2000 points. Lousy.
