    Qantas Enforcing MinimumNumber of Segments Flown to Retain/Attain Status

    I notice on my "Your Summary" page on the Qantas Frequent Flyer Website they have added the Field "Qantas Segments Flown"...

    Citibank Credit Card - Reward Point Capping

    With the demise of the Ezy Bank MasterCard, I have begun using my Citibank Gold Card more often. I note the T&C's allow Citibank to set a cap on the number of points you can earn, no less than 60,000. In your experience do they enforce a cap? I have spent $62,000 so far this year, and they...
