    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    I cancelled a rewards trip planned for August a few weeks ago, received the points within a week but still waiting on the $ refund for the taxes portion. Going by this thread it seems I might be waiting a while.

    Multi City legs with a mix of awards and cash

    Using the online multi-city booking tool I'm unable to select a mix of awards and cash for the segments like you can do with a standard return booking (ie departing flight is an award, return flight is cash). Before wasting time in the phone queue I'm wondering does anyone know if the call...

    St George Amplify card - $139 for 90k points (discounted fee via specific link)

    Have applied and been approved, fairly painless and very fast - even on the weekend! I couldn't see it anywhere, but does anyone know if government payments (rates, water, etc) count towards the $5k spend? The only exclusion I could see was the BPAY one.

    QF AMEX Ultimate Card - 100k bonus

    Applied earlier in the week and received my welcome letter today (no card yet). The letter said they see I already hold an Amex card (DJ Amex), does this mean no bonus points or do other people get that and still receive them anyway? Thanks.

    Re: ANZ QFF Black 75,000 bonus with no annual fee 1st year -only $2500 spend 1st 3 mo Received my letter of offer today which states no first year annual fee. It doesn't mention anywhere about the bonus points - is that supposed to be in the letter of offer or does it just happen automatically?

    Best way to book award flight on JAL with qantas points

    I had the same issue booking JL award seats with the first agent not being able to see them but the second had no trouble. Apparently there's 2 ways for QF staff to search for them and many use the wrong method. They need to search through "redemption" instead of "flight availability"

    "oneworld" award (132.4K/249.6K/318K/455K) Planning - The Definitive Thread

    re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Cheers. Ended up chatting to an agent who tried to find an alternate .. I'd tried as well but the original booking was basically the only option we had so we were SOL. Didn't mind too much - ended up booking our own way YYC...

    Woolworths reviewing partnership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

    I used to only shop at Woolies because of the QFF points, but over the past half year have moved shopping to Aldi and Coles and haven't looked back. Have been saving way more money getting the basics at Aldi, and Coles stores and variety leave Woolies for dead. I think Woolies need to improve...

    QF FF not showing JL First Class award availability?

    I had this issue a few months ago when I phoned up to book a couple of award RTW fares. First agent couldn't see any availability when I knew it existed. Second agent found them no problem. Apparently there's 2 different ways for them to check availability and the first agent was looking in the...
