Unfortunately wasn't going to be able to make it. That's good to hear! I'll give them a call when the credits post. Fingers crossed!

@alexy23 Did you manage to claim the Original Routing Credit and appropriate DSC? I'm about the face the same issue due to a cancelled flight today and a large part of the trip was to get the SC from the now-missing extra leg. Originally CBR-MEL-ADL, the CBR-MEL leg has been cancelled so they...

I'm transiting Singapore (T3) in two weeks flying whY as VA Gold and am tossing up whether to use the KrisFlyer lounge or make use of my Priority Pass to access the SATS/dnata lounges. Any thoughts?

Hi all, I recall reading somewhere that Amex will take into account household earnings when applying for this card. I'm an existing Amex customer (Explorer), but fall short of the $100k threshold on my own merits. Combined with my partner we're well in excess - what are my chances? Appreciate...

Platinum Edge, had it for 3 years, annual spend not huge, 15,000 points. Cancelled anyway.

Cancelled Velocity Platinum in June, still hold Platinum Edge. Separate login created. Bonus points posted as soon as spend was reached.

Re: Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" bonus given thread. Called to cancel my Velocity Platinum as the annual renewal fee came through - offered 15,000 points to keep it. Decided to cancel and will instead go and pick up the NAB Velocity for 75,000 points.

Having just spent $150 on an eclectic selection from Langton's I've also jumped on this also. Think I'll have to put the credit card away for a while.

Taking advantage of the ability to mix and match to pick up a few different things at half price: ATLAS 912 Mourvedre, Barossa Valley 2012 750ml 1 COATES WINES Touriga Nacional 2010 750ml 1 D'ARENBERG WINES The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon, McLaren Vale 2005 750ml 1...

After nominating for HHonors after hitting Velocity Gold in December last year, I've just this morning received my confirmation email that I've been bumped to HHonors Gold. Only took six months, but at least it came through? Rather irritating as not a week ago I chose not to book with Hilton for...

SWMBO and I are holidaying in Spain and Morocco for all of December, returning early Jan: CBR-MEL-AUH-MAD MAD-RAK-MAD MAD-AUH-SYD-CBR All in Y so we'll see how we go...

Hi all, On a related note to the discussion here - what are peoples experiences with this for Etihad? I'm flying (in Y) to Spain next Thursday and just hit the 500SC for Gold this past Saturday (the SC are showing on the website, but still says Silver). The flight itself is booked through VA...

Hi all, Flying CBR-MEL-AUH-MAD-AUH-SYD-CBR, VA flight on EY metal as VA Gold. From what I can tell (from the Virgin website) I should get access to: CBR - Virgin domestic lounge MEL - Air New Zealand International Lounge SYD - Virgin domestic lounge AUH - EY Al Rheem lounge MAD - ? Can anyone...

While I haven't followed the last few pages, are there actually any instances where someone with an existing card didn't get the bonus? It seems like this thread provides a fairly definitive case for stating that existing Amex cardholders will get the bonus if they're referred. And on that note...

To add to the body of evidence: A friend who used my referral had an existing platinum edge card. Received a letter stating that the card limit would take into account his existing account limits, yet still received the 110k points bonus once he'd reached $500 spend (so not even the $1000...

I do find it odd that these two things occur simultaneously. They have a system advanced enough to allocate points to other peoples accounts, yet seem to not detect (or not care) that people are still getting points even when they have an existing card. Either someone in their IT system made a...

Re: Velocity Amex -110,000 POINTS, return free flight,4 lounge passes, travel insuran I had my points posted a good number of days before my statement date as well, so I'd lean more towards happy coincidence. And if anyone still needs a referral to get the 110k Velocity points (or has friends...

Re: Velocity Amex -110,000 POINTS, return free flight,4 lounge passes, travel insuran Yes, I think that in the scheme of things people like those of us here who are perhaps a bit savvier in the use of points (not that I'm particularly savvy) are a small minority of the people that have signed...

Re: Amazing Offer from Velocity Amex -110K Velocity Points. Business Class here I com Hi guys, Quick guide for those not sure how to copy the referral link without sharing it: The link you paste will look like this...

When you attempt to generate a referral you need to enter in your card number. I would suggest that this means you can't generate a referral without legitimately holding a Velocity Platinum card.
