    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    How is it that a big spender isn't profitable for Amex? The cost of points/rewards/cashback comes out of the revenue/profit. Who is it they want?

    Virgin Bali expansion, next up CBR-DPS

    I suspect there is such subsidies from somewhere but that didn't stop Batik from pulling services after just four months. Maybe the scheduling and not-Batik Air factors will give it more legs. I'm quite interested in this as I'm in CBR and my company has just initiated a "work remotely away...

    How does Hertz treat you

    They've been pretty efficient at lowering my status for the last couple of years. I didn't make PC in 2024 so was dropped to 5-star. They did send an email with a three rental challenge in three months to go back to PC but I managed only two. I didn't make 5-star last year and have just...

    Who else still holds the Citibank Free For Life Premier Card?

    Were you trying to use both visits on the same PP for two different people? If so, I don't think that one of the visits can be used for a guest of the card holder uses a visit at the same time. That's what happened to me. I used one visit and my card was charged for the guest, leaving one...

    Citibank Free For Life Credit Cards and MyCard Terms and Conditions

    Two statements in and no sign of any fee on my FFFL card. Ask no questions and they'll tell you no lies I guess.

    Have you accidentally booked the wrong flight?

    Possibly. I showed up at ROK for a GLT-BNE flight once. When you do lots of mining projects and seem to fly in/out of a different airport each time, it's worth checking your flight details before leaving site.

    YouTubers. Youtubers everywhere [Travel Bloggers]

    It's interesting that musicians make SFA for specifically-requested streams on Spotify and yet youtubers seem to make worthwhile money uploading content that many don't specifically go looking for and just randomly stumble or scroll across.

    I got Meredith Goats Cheese. By far the best freebie yet.

    Awful VA crew between Kalgoorlie and Perth

    This no "tea/coffee" on short flights is a cop out and is trash. CBR-MEL subjected to it. :mad:

    Feet on walls / bulkhead

    I think 'classic' crocs make you look like a dumbass. I wear crocs similar to these though. But never on a plane and I'd never put my feet on the bulkhead. I'm not a selfish douchebag.

    UM issue highlights systemic VA decline across all areas - will it get better?

    So is check-in cut-off time 30mins, 40mins or 60mins for a UM?

    Got scammed mycard(citi)

    I guess it's not the worst outcome but still seems like they've hung you out to dry. The fact they got your phone number and other details smacks of a data breach at their end. I'd like to know why they couldn't cancel/block your card immediately as that may have prevented the fraudulent...

    Coles gift card offers

    I happened to be at the Wanniassa (ACT) store on Tuesday evening picking up a few groceries. In anticipation of the Wednesday promotion and perhaps stashing some, I found that there were no cards (purple or yellow) anywhere on the display. When I went back on Wednesday afternoon, the display...

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    I think VA ran this promo last year too. You'll be automatically enrolled in a 10 bonus VFF points offer. Pretty sweet :cool:

    What's your Uber experience?

    We know that he did take a route different to that described in the app, unless @dairyfloss account is made up. My guess is that the app pre-determined and processed the trip according to the origin/destination, albeit with inexplicable errors in the toll amounts, regardless of the route...
