Yeah I looked at Crowne Plaza Changi Airport and that ended up being only a minor saving when booking on points. More upscale is where there's value
, I agree
The credit card sign-up bonus? You still get that even if you are an existing customer, as long as you haven't held any of their rewards cards in the last 12 month
Buying points extends expiration period, right? I just got an email saying my points will expire next month but I have no travel booked until September
Edit: I bought 10k + 11k bonus. Expiry warning went away, and I get some cheapish points
I uploaded two recent payslips.
But as I've been made aware, this issue arises when someone's changed their address's since last applying, which I haven't
At least the benefit of having retired from work is that you can be much more flexible in your travels. That makes for easily finding award flights. Assuming your wife is also retired, that is
No reason for anyone to pay the full fee when it's generously lowered for "existing customers". Just open a free savings account and apply from inside the netbank.
I think my first year fee for Westpack Velocity Black is $150
Yeah I was surprised too.
I don't think I've ever missed a payment so it's not that. Could be time spent at my current employer but that seems a bit harsh. One or my debts is the remainder of my secured car loan but it's less than $10k. I couldn't select "secured", the only only option is...
I applied for my first Citi card (other than Citi operated Virgin Money) and was declined automatically upon application submission.
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendation on how long I should wait before reapplying for a Citi card.
No idea why I'm declined. I'm near the top tax...
I accidentally booked my sister as Mr, booking with Qatar through Virgin Australia. I called them up and they said it shouldn't matter.
I call her Mister Sister now, though, so I got something out of it
I'm a bit late here, but that's almost enough time for two Lord of the Rings movies or approximately 20 episodes of Arrested Development, so that's probably what I would do in the flounge
Good on Gordon for enforcing that! But my little guy is still to young to sit by himself.
We're trying for another kid at the moment so the premium cabin flying will come to a halt eventually due to cost and lack of award seats.
Good luck!
I worry about my kid having never experienced long haul economy. He's growing up thinking business class is the norm. In a few years when he's tall enough to suffer, I'll book us some Y seats SYD-DXB-LHR so he gets to experience it 🙂
