Its pretty easy to get 28 deg to increase your limit particularly if you have had it for a while. They always start with a low limit but increase readily. I started at $8000 and they have put it up several times to $22 000. I would contact them and ask them to increase the limit. we have found...

We have used 28 degrees for the last 10 years and have had no issues. Good exchange rates and no fees plus has no annual fees. Used to use for ATM withdrawals using a credit balance but now they charge. We have found 28 deg plus local currency is best option. We carry a spare CBA Mastercard as a...

Flew QF PE from LA to Brisbane 17 May, upgraded 747. Premium Economy far superior to Economy and 14 hour flight requires extra leg room. Crew were excellent, seats & entertainment good, food ok but can see cost savings taking effect. No real comparison to Business Class but a good cheaper...

I flew JQ11 Gold Coast to Narita Tokyo on 10 April 2014 as this was the only direct option...
