I've had an AMEX Discover card since 2016 (making me a poor churner). Looking to close so the 18 month timeout clock starts. I know back in the day, cardholders had some luck in upgrading. From what I understand, it was fewer points than what was on offer to new members but still a fair whack...

Looking for some advice about 'goodwill' points credited after a Qantas battle. This is the result of a year long adventure in trying to secure a refund. Long story short - I booked several flights using points, had to cancel, got points back but was still due the taxes I paid. Took a full...

Quick one re a debt that's been handed over to a bad debt agency - While away on holiday in Dec, I received a final notice from a medical lab company. I've just spoken with them, the bill is legit (not covered by Medicare bc I'd had same test twice in one year) and I am happy to pay the $25...

Am about to register an account with TA's Miles&Smiles. Is there any advantage to being based in US over Australia? I can easily show evidence for either but didn't know if it would ever matter one way or another. Does it matter with any airline?

How strict is Qantas on 'eligible family member' and how does it have to be proven? If two people have same address, can they claim half-siblings or domestic partners? Or would evidence be needed?

My handy credit card calendar tells me I will be eligible for a NAB points card in a few months. I've served my 12 months in the time out box and am ready to have them give me some more freq flyer points. However, is their recently acquisition of Citibank going mess up my plans? I currently...

I've enjoyed the $100 gift cards from these offers - just convert $2,5 of credit to FPO (Fixed Payment Option) and wait 90 days. Viola, a $100 giftcard to Myers, Coles or JB Hi-Fi. Sadly, I don't think I've seen an offer in a while. Is anyone getting these offers anymore?

(apologies if this is wrong spot for this) After much ado, the wife of a friend is finally coming to join him in Sydney. They haven't seen each other in over 2 yrs and certainly didn't expect to be separated this long so you can imagine this is pretty joyous news for them. Just pre-Covid...

Hoping to get some input regarding which card to apply for next. My goal is to earn points via bonuses, think I can managed a new card approx every 2 months. I don't spend much on credit so the earn after the bonus doesn't really matter much. All my applications so far have netted approx QF...

I've had a few mystery notifications lately regarding my Qantas Business Rewards accounts, emails telling me verification code. Only, I didn't request these. First time was maybe a month ago. I called Qantas Business Rewards Service Centre because I was concerned about any un-authorised...

Hello all, This is an auspicious occasion for me - been a member of AFF (and FT) for a while now but have just redeemed my first miles. Woot woot! Using 30k AA miles to go from SYD to BKK (SYD-HKG leg on QF). My questions are more about perks of my short-lived AA Platinum status. I'm an...

Hello all, I'm a recent transplant to Sydney. Loving the city so far, although it's been a bit chilly. I'm disappointed I didn't make it to OzFest 2014 but I'm hoping there will be more opportunities to meet AFFers. While contemplating my move, I stalked Lindsay (QF WP) on FlyerTalk - he's...
