I definitely agree that 400k current points are worth more than $3250.00 but in a month their value will halve, so at today's value, it's 200k airline points. I guess you can make a case that it's worthwhile as a business to Europe on SQ is worth $6500 when you can get D class so the extra $3250...

Statuses and other travel benefits offered to Cent are: - Qantas Club - Emirates Gold tier - Hotel statuses: Radisson RewardsTM Gold Status Hilton Honors Diamond Status IHG Rewards Club Platinum Elite Status Shangri-La Golden Circle Diamond Membership Marriott Bonvoy™ Gold Elite Status Of...

Thanks for your reply. I DO use most of the points I earn but also trying to build up a little bank as I won't have the business spend forever. The points saving is helped that I used to use many Amex points transferred to SPG and redeem most hotel stays but with the new Marriott transfer rate...

Thanks. I do have an A/C card and 4 plat supps for business plus the primary and Cent supp for partner. Currently negotiating with Amex for a couple of additional benefits and will likely keep Cent as the extra points and statuses should more than cover the extra cost.

I have a Centurion card with a free Velocity Platinum (used only for the free flight) plus a Platinum Business charge with a free Plat Reserve (for $400 travel credit). I pay 50% fee on the Plat charge as I have another charge card so total membership costs are 5000 plus 875 = 5875 Cards are...

Why can't you make the assumption that it's automatic? After the first Cent supp, all the rest receive Plat cards so I would expect them to receive the Plat benefits. If the supp does, then the primary must. That's the logic I would apply and see if they can disagree.

I understand your disappointment. Many of us are disappointed. but what were you expecting? That they should make some special offer to you and not everyone, because of your tenure as a client? Wouldn't that put them in a position to make the same offer to all clients? Their FX business would...

Card arrived after a few weeks. headphones about a month after that. You're not missing much, though. I guess the box is pretty, but it went in the bin. I'll use the phones as a standby.

This has no relationship to WHERE you purchase, only on which merchant account. This means if it says Qantas on the card statement, Qantas was the merchant. Qantas can be the merchant on different kinds of sales- online at various websites, Qantas ticket counters at airports, any travel agency...

It depends on the process of payment, and what you purchase. The terms say: You can earn… On eligible Card purchases at…2 3 points for every dollar spent • ten of thousands of restaurants in Australia2 • selected Qantas products and services in Australia3 2 points...

Or they DO except. ;)

Sadly, status credits can no longer be earned on redemptions. I am wondering if the earn was based on the booking date, rather than the travel date, as I had 2 redemption flights in July which earned status credits for my own, and the family pool segments. A flight taken on 3Aug says " Not...

I should have said - No financially worthwhile way. As I said, my travel is all leisure and on points, in premium classes. If it was available on QF, ASA in first would cost too much to make it worthwhile, and QF has very little F product left, which forces me to other carriers, most often.

Since all my travel is on points and in premium classes it doesn't make a LOT of difference. I have no status on QF and no way to earn it, but do have CX status from Amex, which helps with QF seating. VA status means little, except a few car rental addons, and maybe faster phone response time...

Google says: Family Pooling| Velocity Frequent Flyer There may be up to 2 adults and 4 kids in a family pool.

I'm also unsure about this. The promo was to have run until 30Jun. I always redeem business and did receive status credits for my flights in July and also credits pooled from my wife. I'm travelling again tomorrow, so I'll post again once I see the credits accrue, next week. maybe it's because...

It's ongoing: Earning Status Credits | Velocity Frequent Flyer

Neither VA (Virgin Australia) or VS (Virgin Atlantic), which are not the same company, offer status for Centurion in Australia, although it's easy to earn status with VA as they allow status credits to accrue for redemption bookings, and you can have a spouse/partner and kids gifting their...

Yes, the email came after registration.

In addition. I got the email asking to confirm my address and choosing a gift. Either noise reducing headphones or a USB charging battery.
