Heh. I had to call Citibank a few times recently for this "premier" card. Firstly to get my wife's card activated (could only activate my own card on the app), then they couldn't tell me what was available for reward redemption. I asked them cos it changes on 20 Sep. Then I tried messaging...

Hello. I'm wondering if this is the correct thread for discussing the Woolworths visa card monthly 10% off your shop discount? I had some questions, and presumably some people on this forum are better at utilising the discount offered than others? I noted there was a subtle change to the...

Just thought to share this information. We visited Hong Kong 2 weeks ago and picked up the One2Free prepaid sim card - the price is no longer HKD $88, but now $100 (cash/credit card was fine, and they dont need your ID or anything). The 1010 shop at the airport is now located on the arrivals...

Having traveled on the new business class on CX, I can say that yes, it is nice to get a newer plane, better menu, and generally better service (and definitely better sleeping on their A340). However, I would point out that on this recent trip, I received noticeably better service on QF128/127...

Well, it does happen, just not when you expect it :) I would've preferred being bumped when travelling with the family, but I'll take whatever is offered. It's also a very nice first time upgrade, so I'm not gonna complain!

I think it was because 16AB are exit rows upstairs in J on 744? Not sure, haven't been PS for a few years, so don't recall what is and what is not selectable.

Date: Sunday 19th August Flight: QF127 Usually I find travelling pretty boring, so it was good that I was able to convince a colleague to join me on this flight up to HK (he was heading up, but was originally thinking a day later). I was able to select my seat, but my colleague couldn't (the...

This is strange - I got the email back on 4 April as per other the others. I clicked through on my iPad and since then I made a booking via the corporate travel agent on QF. When I logged into QFF website tonight, I got the prompt to confirm my email address and then an email confirmation came...

I have completed quite a few sectors with CX, and this was the first time I have been made this offer. All my travel on CX lately has been for business travel, and in J (company paying). I am pretty sure that the HKG-BOM return leg was the first 2 sectors I've done on a CX plane that had 3...

My most recent trip was Sydney to Mumbai via Hong Kong - and due to my firm's policy of booking the lowest cost airfares, I ended up on CX via HK (I wanted QF127/8 for the double SC, but missed out). Anyway, sleep did not come easily on the overnight flights on the way home. So inevitably, I...

In my small sample of travels CX have always issued me with lounge invites, regardless of the city - Sydney, Hong Kong, Tokyo (Narita and Haneda), Mumbai and Singapore. In my recent flight on CX162, Sydney Flounge dragon made a firm and polite request for the invite as they wanted to charge the...

I wanted to say that I was very surprised to receive my replacement Platinum card today - inside a week of re-qualification! I just returned from a CX business trip - the last 2 flights only posted on my QFF account on Tuesday 6th and I got my new Platinum card in the mail today (9th). Given...

I travelled to the UK in August 2011 on QF arriving in T3. I can confirm that AA allow J pax to use their arrivals lounge - it was ok (old but clean). When leaving the UK, I flew out on a BA flight and left from T5. T5 is new, T3 is old - the BA First lounge is nicer than the AA arrivals lounge...

I've been following this thread as it makes for interesting reading. Just to enlighten others - "Arm breaker" is a reference to Mark Latham. See the possible similarities to today's scenario with Tony?

Okay, sorted out one family holiday on Christmas Eve! Red e-deals for the mrs and kids, JASA for me :) Bought a voucher and redeemed it in the space of 20mins. All looks good, just have to manually get the 2 bookings linked and attach FF memberships. I'm wondering aloud... if I choose points...

Was looking to buy a voucher for a family holiday. But when I got to the gift voucher page, intending to buy for 1 Adult and 2 Children, it specifies "Adult 1, Adult2, Adult 3" I wonder if this means you cannot buy gift vouchers for children? If credit card travel insurance is not valid for...

Great thread Markis. It's given me a great suggestion on how to carefully select a location for a domestic family holiday and to grab myself a few SC at the same time. Cheers!

I need some help from the SC run gurus. Due to the current financial crisis, work has locked down the T&E budget, and I am in need of 160SC. I will get some trips next year, but I am going to save the associated SCs for the next year. I have FF points and need some suggestions on how to most...

Yeah. Sorry, should have said easy pay. I had a chance to call today and speak to someone there to confirm it too... Sent from my iPad using AustFreqFly app

Hiya. Just wanted to know if your automatic direct debits were still in place, or if Citibank needed you to complete a new form? Cheers.
