Don't think that's available anymore.

I can confirm first hand: The card does work for a couple days but then it ceases to work as it'll identify the card as an overseas card. You simply then need to register the card on the tfl website and it'll keep working. Also when you register you get the benefit of seeing the history and...

I kinda liked the box. The travel wallet wasn't my thing, but I can imagine some people would like it.

Though they say 3 weeks, in my experience doing an online transfer takes approx 2-3 days to appear. Also there would have been links to transfer the points to either Virgin, SIA, or AsiaMiles.

Re: 28 Degrees card exchange rate? I'll be heading to Europe in a few days. Does anyone have any tips on which atm's to use to avoid any surcharges? The countries I'll be visiting are: UK France Italy Switzerland Germany Netherlands Brussels

Cool, I stand corrected.

The bonus points would be for CitiRewards, which can then be transferred to either Virgin or Singapore at 1.5 CR to 1 frequent flyer mile, or Asia Miles at 2 CR to 1 FF mile. AKAIK, the 80k bonus points is for transferring to CitiRewards, and not Qantas.

You should be getting 4.25 altogether. When calculating points on your statement, the cents don't count so effectively you round down.

My credit purchases overseas have been with the Citi Select. To withdraw money I use the 28 degrees.

You see it in the same monthly cycle as your regular points. There's breakdown of what the normal points are and what were the bonus ones.

Once I'm back and I have excess cash on the card I head to the nearest westpac and start withdrawing. You can only manage $1000 per day, but I can do more with it vs it just sitting there on the card.

I recently came back from South Korea and went to Alpensia, which is very close to Yongpyong. Unfortunately you would have missed the direct shuttle bus to Yongpyong from Incheon so you'll probably have to do things the hard(er) way. Enjoy Your Life? Say, "YongPyong" Your best option is to take...

I've had Citi Select for over 1.5 years and it's been my experience that they do not charge any currency conversion fee, contrary to what the documents may say. So whilst overseas I use my select for credit purchases and 28 degrees to withdraw cash and pay for those cash only places. Works well.

Please share your findings later :)

I did post this on Citibank Australia's FB page and they said they're onto it...

They're just clueless. Had to explain that yes it's a credit card, yes it's by citibank, and yes it's valid for the promotion.

There's been a few times where i whipped out the citi select card and they say it's not valid. sigh.

No, still 1:1 for QFF per dollar
