Thanks for your thoughts. I was more thinking of moving the cash in to get the points, then drawing it back out again and putting back on the mortgage....

Hi Received what I think is a targeted promo: Earn Points on your next FX transfer For a limited time, you can earn 15,000 bonus Velocity Points when you transfer AU$10,000 (or foreign currency equivalent) into a foreign currency on your Global Wallet®*. Simply transfer by 23 December 2017...

Looking to book a J flight in September. Have looked at a range of dates and legs (PER-MAN, MAN-PER, LHR-PER, PER LHR). I'm only in need of a seat one way with SQ to use some points due to expire - other leg will be with MH. Not too fussed whether it's SQ ex-AU or MH, though the best outcome...

Just a quick additional question related to this - have been looking over the OW site to find an answer but no luck so far. Want to know how the baggage works in the aforementioned scenario. e.g. on the international J sector my baggage allowance is higher than on the domestic Y sector. Do I...

Pre-paid visa is something I hadn't thought about before. Anybody have any experience?

Thank you all for your quick and insightful responses - big help, much appreciated

Have an MH flight in J landing in LHR. Then, an onward BA flight, UK Domestic. These are on separate PNRs. Anybody know if I would have lounge access at LHR due to arriving in J, even though BA ticket doesn't provide it?

I've just this second spotted that, as I can select a seat a 'D' seat, then it does unfortunately look like this A332 is one of the coughpy ones!

Thanks for all of your help - I will take a look at Thread 49 as Danger has suggested.

I took out an ANZ black at the start of the year, and am positive the offer was 50k QFF points and fee free first year. Followed up with them the other month as bonus points hadn't posted and was told it would be on the statement date after first 3 months. That was yesterday. Still no bonus...

Thanks. Specifically, what does one have to look for on the seat map to work out which of the three it is?

Have a PER-SYD (rtn) trip coming up later this month. Keen understand how to identify whether my J seat will be the new J, the old J or the wanna-be J (the cough ones with the tray over the middle seat). Any ideas appreciated.

When I last checked, taxes PER-LHR-PER were $1100 on one of these redemptions. Does anybody know how much they are for CDG instead of LHR?

Couple of family members have a small number of points (10,000 each) which they are unlikely to use before they expire. They're happy to transfer to me if I cover the cost which, at today's prices is around $160AUD each. Interested in others' views on whether this is really worth it, or best...

Quick update based on my dealings with MH today: - Called them up (don't think it's possible to change on line) - Very easy and pleasant transaction whereby I pushed the date out by around 3 months - Same sectors - USD $20 charge for the change That's it - all good!

Thanks medhead - just looked and yes, can see the test at the bottom of the conf email. Will report back on how this plays out in case useful to others in future.

Does anybody have experience in how to either cancel or change an aware redemption on MH (made online through their Enrich site), and what the associated costs are? E.g. if cancel, do you forfeit some or all points? Do you get the taxes/fees back? If you want to change, can you do this...

Hi All Not sure whether this is of interest, as not sure how the reward seats really work in the background, but on the off chance that cancelling my booking opens up a seat for somebody else, thought I'd post it here first, so AFFers have first chance to snap up. This is actually part of a...

Thanks for the added info/clarity Serfty. Have just checked what VA have available on same day (sorry for raising here - I know this is in the QF area, but didn't want to start a new thread just for this question), and they are showing J available on a direct flight - means 2 hours extra in bed...

Thanks all for the quick responses. Will check out points plus pay and see which option looks best. Cheers
