    Bonus points offer to downgrade from ANZ QF Black to Platinum

    Called and confirmed what was going on. The offer is apparently a choice of either 10,000 bonus points, or 1pt/$ bonus for 3 months, not both (clearly a mistake to send SMS with offer A, linking to offer B). Limited to those targeted for the offer. I took up the offer of 10,000 bonus points...

    Bonus points offer to downgrade from ANZ QF Black to Platinum

    Well this is a new one... Just received an SMS from ANZ offering 10,000 Qantas points to downgrade from Black to Platinum. The link contained in the message then details a bonus 1 bonus point per dollar for first three months on all spend, on top of standard Platinum earn rates. The link...

    Double the Qantas Points you earn on the ground (up to 15,000 bonus points)

    Re: Double the Qantas Points you earn on the ground (UPDATE - and in the air) I can't make sense of the points amounts credited. One credit of 5,000 points, the other two much less than expected. I had Woolworths points plus an Epiqure transaction that should have been eligible in different...

    New Amex statement credits

    I received the Android Pay offer on my Edge, and I use that card consistently via Android Pay at Woolworths. With Local Champion, I will indeed be enjoying 6pts per dollar at local Woolies :D

    QANTAS to launch their own credit card in tie-up with Citibank

    There's really nothing in the offer to make this card a keeper. I suspect most of us points collectors will get this for the bonus and then churn.

    BP terminates Velocity Agreement effective 30 June 2017 - Velocity sues

    I had no idea that was possible until I read your post! Very annoying to date, wish I'd known it was possible sooner. It took me a while to find the setting... for those looking for the setting, after logging in to your velocity account, go to "Pay With Points In-Store" then look for...

    Fewer Suites, but larger and plusher coming....

    AusBT talking about Sydney getting the new A380s from 25 Oct. I have two suites awards booked on 231 just a few days later. Fingers crossed 231 gets the new aircraft and we don't get bumped out of suites given that the number of seats is halved.

    Double the Qantas Points you earn on the ground (up to 15,000 bonus points)

    That's the link for the promo offering double points on flights. The promo referred to in this thread is a different promotion for double points on NON-flight earning (eg. online shopping, epiqure etc).

    Double the Qantas Points you earn on the ground (up to 15,000 bonus points)

    The offer web page has just disappeared. The link https://www.qantaspoints.com/offers/doublepoints now just redirects to the home page. Offer reached its limit of registrations (was there a limit on registrations)? Or has Qantas changed its mind and pulled the offer entirely?

    Double the Qantas Points you earn on the ground (up to 15,000 bonus points)

    My guess is that direct earn credit card points will be eligible. By excluding "reward programs" I think they're excluding programs where transfer to Qantas is a discretionary transaction that can be initiated at will (particularly Amex Ascent Premium and hotel programs that allow transfer to...

    Double the Qantas Points you earn on the ground (up to 15,000 bonus points)

    It seems this promo will double any Woolworths rewards converted to Qantas up until 13 June. The next Woolworths > Qantas conversion is due around 16 June, so that will help with your double bonus in the 3rd month. Essentially any Woolworths points promos over next two and a half months are...

    BA Award availability gone?

    For those following this issue, BA awards seem to be back and available on the website today. I had an award to book but was waiting for points to come through. They came through after Woolworths transfer yesterday... and no BA seats showing. Tried online chat yesterday afternoon, they were...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    I don't think anyone has access to $200 travel credit for Edge yet. Edge does not switch from free flight to travel credit until March 30 I think. Unless you're talking about new Edge cardmembers. When did new Edge cards start getting $200 travel credit instead? What is the experience of...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    Just following up on my own issue from last month. In case anyone is experiencing same problem and was searching here for a solution. I have discovered that when you have two cards under the same Amex login and then you login to Amex Travel Online, it will default to whichever rewards account...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    Have also gone all the way to the checkout page on a booking $400+ and it's definitely not there. I've seen screenshots from others of what it's meant to look like on the checkout page (with yellow button to apply travel credit just below the costs summary), BUT I have nothing in that same place...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    Yes. The travel credit is showing in My Redemptions under the Gateway program. Just not showing up in online travel now. (After your earlier post, I logged in and saw it in online travel along with Gateway points balance. But now when I login to online travel I see Ascent points balance, no...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    Bonus points should definitely credit as soon as the minimum spend charges are fully applied to your account (ie no longer "Pending"). Are those charges still pending? If charges have cleared and still no bonus, I would suggest calling them up.

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)

    I did an online chat to ask Amex what they suggest, he offered two options... separate the logins, or call up the travel team to book. Note I've got Explorer and Platinum Edge, not Platinum Charge. I tried to separate the logins but even that wouldn't work... authentication code for adding the...
