Typically how often do Woolies or BigW offer bonus points on visa gift cards? I’m after a stack (~50 to 100) but would rather hold off until they offer the 1000 QF points per card. Last time I remember I think it was BigW that did it back in May.

Has anyone noticed a delay in the processing of Coles transactions? Usually my points post the day after the shop but I've now got at least 6 separate transactions over the last few days that haven't come through.

I got a $60 x4week for 10k points which is great considering we usually spend $1.5k monthly at Coles. Also received an offer of 20% bonus velocity points with an unlimited transfer rate for the month of July. I’ve got ~400k flybuys points and most definitely will not be transferring them...

My latest statement issued yesterday made mention of a Membership pack delay. Couldn’t care less about the card but wouldn’t mind a couple of luggage tags..

I'd certainly be contacting them to see what happened. As others have mentioned with any luck you drop to gold after June and you also get enough Qcredits through the match to upgrade a one way economy to Europe to business. Even if you don't intend on flying before June, or can't given the...

I was matched to platinum a couple weeks back but have pretty much written it off as I can’t see us being able to travel properly any time soon as per Joyce’s announcement though I get that he doesn’t speak for the government. Hopefully it drops to gold. Either way my plan is to book for Europe...

Have you made multiple accounts? Could always alternate between cards or if you are going to make a large purchase split it across a couple different Flybuys accounts? Pain in the cough but I suppose Flybuys aren't going to offer low targets to people making large spends. I typically spend at...

Still too hard to tell if we’ll be able to take advantage of this for international flights but I’m wondering if I were to make a booking for Europe a week before status expires could I still use the qcredits to upgrade that flight, even if status drops before the flight date?

Is there a limit to how many eBay gift cards can be used to purchase a single item on eBay? I know the egift cards through flybuys could only be used one per transaction.

I haven't really been following this too closely but when does it all wrap up and we have an idea of the outcome of VA? I'm still curious what will happen to Velocity and points balances. Suppose no one really knows yet.

That’s pretty much the generic response they send out so I think it’s safe to say you’ll be matched. My friend was matched around the same time as me but used his KrisFlyer gold status as he’s silver with Velocity. He was obviously matched to QR gold but it’s interesting KrisFlyer don’t really...

Anyone know if they send out anything in the mail like bag tags, physical membership card, etc?

When booking with QF for an international flight is there a way to use the QR status to gain lounge entry but retain the QF frequent flyer number on the boarding pass to collect the points? Now that I’ve reached VA platinum and it has the extended review date (assuming VA pull though) I’m...

Also received the status match confirmation email about half an hour ago. Nice that review date isn't based off the original application date. Now the next challenge will be if I will be able to get some benefit out of it seeing as we're still a while off unrestricted travel. I'm new to OW but...

I think the initial timeframe was 10 days but then changed to 20 days. I wouldn't be too concerned as the promo was open to a number of programs so no doubt the received an influx of applications which will take time to go through. Bit optimistic and premature to be booking for Europe this...

Early this morning I received a second confirmation of the Velocity statement which they requested. It’s now under review so I guess we wait and see what happens. Based on the chart they provided in the promo it seemed they would match silver, gold and platinum members to their own equivalent. I...

You're probably right considering they seem to have ended the status match early and then reintroduced it minus VA. They're probably combing through the mass VA applications and they may be down staff because I'm pretty sure the next couple days are religious public holidays in that region.

Thought I'd add some from the most recent trip to NYC. Only there for a few days. Plan to go back but who knows when!

My response from them was the same with the June 20th date. I've already replied as I received the Velocity statement faster than I expected. I presume they have copped a lot of requests so it might take them time. Isn't there also some sort of Muslim event happening at the moment? That might...

Also received a follow up email regarding details provided. I have a physical card but did not have a statement at the time hence the screenshots. They said they cannot accept screenshots but I have since received a PDF statement from Velocity as I requested so I will send them that. I guess...
