    Amex Platinum “Please pay by” date

    As for how it goes with the personal Platinum Card: If you don’t pay the amount payable by the due date you’ll be charged a late payment fee on your next bill. 3% of whatever amount is late. When the late fee is charged, call up Amex and ask for the fee to be reversed; they should say yes to...

    For those who have been comped status

    I've been checking my profile daily, sitting on 230SC with a Sept 30 2014 assessment date. Figure a comp is a longshot; I've been WP for 3 years, averaging 1400SC per year.

    Comped QF Status with very low SC balance.

    Am currently sitting on 120 SCs. With an assessment date of September 30 (and the removal of MASAs) there is no chance of me retaining WP for another year, was good while it lasted! It got me to thinking, has anyone here had their QF status comped an extra year with an extremely low Status...

    Requesting AirNZ status matches

    Emailed the request on Tuesday morning, logged into my Airpoints account Wednesday afternoon and it showed Gold Status. A little disappointed they only matched me to Gold rather than Gold Elite, but it seems in line with other members in this forum who've applied for an AirNZ match recently...
