    Sniip accepting Amex at same rate as Visa/Mastercard

    I think the 1.5% includes GST, so you get that back too as a business expense.

    New Amex statement credits

    Hi albyd, I'm in the same boat. I have raised this with my relationship manager as its a known bug in the system. He's been working on this for the past 4 weeks, hoping for a resolution soon. My second half offer for NetaPorter is already live.

    Amex Australia - Centurion Card Eligibility

    I used to have the same problem. I had an individual Plat Business Charge for each business that I owned, but because the stock ordered was owned by Amex until the bill was paid, there wasn't really any limit issues. But having to pay 3 x annual fees for cards that had an inferior earn rate on...

    Amex Australia - Centurion Card Eligibility

    I've recently done similar analysis to see if my Centurion card is worth keeping. I spend about $200K a month on this card. I'm fortunate to have significant business spend that allows this to happen. At an extra 0.25 points / dollar, that gives me an additional 600K MR earn each year compared...

    Putting St George Amplify CC into credit?

    Hi everyone, I have a regular $60K bill to pay each month through the business, but only have secured a $15K limit on my StG Amplify credit card. Has anyone tried transferring extra funds into the credit card, then paying a larger bill than their credit limit? I have tried to get a higher limit...

    Points Club and Qantas Transfer Bonus

    I took your advice on the extra 30K points muppet, and have transferred 2 x 600K Amex points to get 750K Qantas Points and points club plus membership for nearly 2 years. I saw on pointshacks that the 25% bonus offer is usually on transfers of 500k and over, so the current promotion is quite...

    Points Club and Qantas Transfer Bonus

    Thanks Muppet I've just started a new anniversary cycle, so I only have 3000 points so far. I'm mainly after the 10% discount on Qantas wines and the status earnt on reward flights. I usually redeem J if available, but have Emirates gold due to my credit card so I don't think I need QP access...

    Points Club and Qantas Transfer Bonus

    Hi everyone, I'm tempted to use some of my stockpiled Amex points to reach Points Club Plus. Qantas emailed me today with a transfer bonus offer: 15% more up to 299,999 and 25% more over 300,000. My questions are: 1) Does that bonus count separately to the points transferred? I know there is a...

    New Amex statement credits

    Yes to both albyd. I did really well out of the double point promotion. It was basically a 5% credit on any spend. Even with a 2% surcharge, I was still 3% ahead. 1604461680 On the contrary, I think my deal is a lot better than a $100 credit after 4 months?

    New Amex statement credits

    I have a Centurion card, and my RM called me today to inform me of their latest offer. He mentioned that the offer will be targeted and not available to everyone. The offer is $400 straight credit on spend at supermarkets and food delivery services for Nov and Dec.

    747 Bar Carts

    Mine just arrived just before 8am. Its in great condition, and I got Pinot Grigio instead of Chardonnay so I think I'm winning! I'm heading off to work soon and will be picking up some cleaning supplies to get it all shiny!

    747 Bar Carts

    Agreed. Imagine how much money they could have made if they let us customise our carts with miniatures of our favourite spirits! I value the PJs, blanket and tim tams, the rest I could easily do without.

    747 Bar Carts

    I found the reference "Notice how in the 70's everything had a touch of class in keeping with the glamour of flying. The carts were dressed in wooden sides and fancy doors. Nowadays they are bashed and battered and rolled down the isle regardless. Of course in International F and J you don't...

    747 Bar Carts

    You are most probably correct serfty as I'm too young to have experienced it. I thought I read something here or elsewhere that mentioned that the bar carts used to look more fancy with wooden coverings. I know they are covered in white linen in domestic business.

    747 Bar Carts

    I'm in PER and just got the call that my half bar cart is being delivered tomorrow. I'm intrigued that the old first class bar carts had wooden panels on them. Does anyone have photos? I might get my chippie to help me pimp up my cart!

    RewardPay Alternatives

    Thanks for the heads up, I just paid out my car finance. Seems like a good deal to be paying <2% surcharge when I can claim back 1c/point and earn 5 points per dollar!
