    I’ve heard the only way to recover property there (SYD) is go in person.

    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    Hilton are great about not playing that BS game of “we upgraded you to a club room without club access”. I’ve never heard of any Hilton-wide brand hotel doing it.

    Credit Card Offers HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card: Fast-Track to Star Alliance Gold Status

    One off. Seems like some nonsense misunderstanding tbh that gets blown up because no one takes responsibility. Should post asking for an update, if I remember to do it

    HSBC Premier credit card - too good to be true?

    Not sure anyone has money with them. Everyone on here seems to have set up the same auto transfer. Takes about 2 min to setup on my banking apps and it’s done, I guess I lose 1 month of coughulative interest on 9k, with 3 days per month that money is out of action. Not insignificant but the card...

    ANA Perth-Tokyo flight - now year-round

    Yes and no. Its first season was 2019 Sept so it stopped running in 2020, of course. Also I think this has a thread already and was posted when announced.

    Amex Application: Is 1xCC better than NO CCs

    It is taken into account. If you had an issue prior you’d get even less credit

    Finnair Flight disruption - Overnight layover support

    The answer is always book in advance. Sort your own stuff out and get compensation later, if any. At least you’ll be comfortable, and only possibly out of pocket

    Skyscanner cheap flight booking sites

    Do you pay Skyscanner? There’s your answer as to why they promote various sites. You get a rep for selling the cheapest flights on any search. Even if people book a level higher or a different site, you go back because they were so much cheaper.

    ANA Perth-Tokyo flight - now year-round

    SQ have their own lounge. I am certain which lounge ANA use firsthand, as my only trip with them from PER was in 2020, but I’m pretty sure it’s Aspire. NRT, while longer, has some simple connections esp for Shinkansen and certain domestic flights. For my purposes is works well, but HND would...

    Linking 2 separate rewards bookings

    what he said. Though it’s about a single ticket, it is technically possible to put them in the same PNR; but it’s irrelevant because the ticket is not 1 single ticket with protections.

    Got an invite to Delta silver medallion today via HH. Not sure who is eligible. Well timed before a Garuda flight- better than nothing!

    Japanese Yen - Cash

    Wise is a poor idea compared to a fee free debit unless you only want $350 a month. After that it adds a bunch of fees

    Yep. Hoping for a business sale to promote it!

    more than 1 Australian Amex?

    I have 3. The edge still earns more points at supermarkets and the annual fee is offset by the credit anyway, so it’s net win. The reserve gives me free travel credit for no annual fee (no longer available) and the plat is my main card.

    What cheeses me off

    If you want the points should get a Bankwest credit card for overseas. Points plus no foreign exchange fee. Best of both worlds. Or CBA if your regular spend is higher

    What cheeses me off

    Not all. Pretty sure Bankwest still charges for them all!

    Manually transfer points to Velocity in November & December 2024 for a 10% bonus

    Last time this came around I had that worry but it credited fine, it just took forever and no manual intervention was required.

    Uber cancellation request from Driver; is this the norm?

    Sorry, I’m confused. I thought we were talking about scams. But you just seem to be arguing that the amount Uber charges/pays you is lower? Regardless, if the driver is stuck in traffic I’d assume they can cancel it themselves. I understanding with some apps that otherwise this would create a...
