I tried to apply for the Companion card (hold PC) and when I go to the application I get a message saying I already hold it, anyone else seen this before? I hold the explorer card and recently cancelled the Palt Edge so I can apply for the Companion card

Dragon visa? Do you mean St George Bank? I was thinking about this one as well, the earn rate if you don't spend much in the bonus categories is not bad, but I think if i'll go for a Visa earning card i'll probably go for the Citi card - the benefits justify the higher price compared to the St...

Same here, did plat challenge and its valid till Jan 2020, and I need 14 nights to renew

Agree with above comments, book Y to LAX then rev ticket from LAX will be better value probably

Background I currently have the Plat Edge linked to Explorer combo. I won't get into what a point is worth, but if you use RP and the other platforms using the above combo we are looking at circa 1.3c per point (including GST etc). This will be hard to match but i've done some research and...

Thank you so much @auflier for this, May I ask, why did you apply for a different card to the US Platinum? Any reason?

It's been a big year. Circa 80k miles (international, too many domestic to count) all in either J or F, spent most time at TPR in Singapore, all on points for myself and my missus. New countries visited including Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Mexico, Russia. Spent 14 nights in Japan on points (RC and...

Hi Fitz, Why dont you max out the Amex payment then use bpay for the balance? My bpay to Amex gets processed same day (around 10-11pm) if I make a payment before 5pm

There's an easy solution to the "kids in business class" problem. Charge parents more for the child - something like double or triple, if the kids behave refund the difference to the parents, if they don't pass the money to passengers that were impacted by the bad behaviour. Win / win for everyone

Have you tried this method and did it work for you? I thought that you don't need credit history if migrating your card from Aus? Did you find a way to set up a bank account remotely?

Hello, I'll be relocating to the US soon, has anyone used the overseas Amex transfer service? I have some questions Thanks

Between RP and similar platforms i've done $1.2m since joining, can't see myself continuing to use any of these platforms post deval. If Amex devalued the points cause "fees are lower" then they should lower their fees as well, 1.2% or less is where it should be

There are better ways to deal with this, and the responsibility should be with the parents. If the baby cries during the flight, the parents should pay extra and the money should be disbursed to the other passengers. Something like $200-$300 per passenger. If you can afford J for your kid you...

Charcoal Grill on the Hill, Kew (Melbourne) is my go to spot. All meals I had there were excellent and they have a very impressive wine list

Amex to Martiott transfer is now live but there is no "Transfer Now" option. Apparently will be back live tomorrow

Accoring to Point Hacks, Amex announced the new transfer rate and it is TERRIBLE From 2:1, it's going to be 3:2 How the merger of SPG and Marriott Rewards will affect you - Point Hacks Did anyone get an email or similar? So under the old program, a hotel that was 20,000 SPG (or 40,000 Amex)...

Any idea on how MR will convert to Marriott?

I will be interested to know how Amex to SPG conversion rates will change?

Thanks, Do you know if they same applies if flying from say Osaka - Haneda (JL) then NRT - MEL (also JL)?

Hey everyone, Suppose I want to fly SYD-AUH (Etihad) and from there go by land to DXB and catch a Royal Jordanian flight to Amman, do you think this will be still considered one award on AA? I've done SYD-AUH-AMM in the past with EY / RJ, but not sure if the land segment is allowed? Thanks!
