I know this isn't 100% Velocity related, but I reckon a lot of Velocity people would be doing this at the moment due to recent FlyBuys offers. I bought a heap of Mastercard gift cards during the Coles Flybuys 2000 points offers. I trying to work out how to use them properly, sometimes it wants a...

It now costs $49 to park your car for a day at AVV. $83 for 3 days. $119 for a week. The long term car park at MEL is only $12 a day if you book online. https://avalonairport.com.au/parking/

Over the years I have tried things such as Entertainment Card, Pesidential Card etc. On more than half the amount of times I've tried to use it, the person behind the counter would give it a dumb look and end up walking around to other staff members asking what it is. It always seemed the longer...

I usually park in the section of this car park between the Terminal Drive entry and Centre Rd. This section is an easy walk to T3 or T4, no need to wait for the bus. I noticed last week that they have blocked off half of this section. There didn't appear to be any works being done. I'm hoping...

As of 23rd October, the Spirit of Tasmania (the ship that operates between Melbourne & Devonport) will be relocating it's Victorian operations from Station Pier, Port Melbourne to Corio Quay South Wharf in North Geelong. It is being renamed the Spirit of Tasmania Quay...

Do they love them of hate them: - Are there few enough that they don't eat too much into their billion dollar profits ? - Do the merchant fees make enough to offset the points ? - Do they lay in waiting for people not to repay in full and have to pay interest ? - Do they lay in waiting for...

https://www.finder.com.au/buying-christmas-gift-cards-with-a-credit-card Found this article in finder. Is there any fact to it as I haven't bought gift cards for a while. Do gift card purchases count as cash advances and attract immediate interest ? Do they qualify for reward points ? Do they...

I didn't know you could do this, I thought you had to go back in person and get your points processed over the counter. It would be very easy for them to catch her out, payment method, cameras etc etc...

I have had a survey offer from e-rewards. They say that the survey will take four hours to complete and you will receive $30 worth of points. Does anybody know how many points this gets you. Deciding if it is worth doing the survey.

I have had it happen twice now. I go to swipe my Velocity at BP and when I swipe it the Pay Pass sensor picks up the Visa chip in my Global Wallet and it ended up taking the money to pay out of my Global Wallet Visa account and not giving me any Velocity points. The first time it happened it...

Have you noticed that when you get a targeted petrol offer from Velocity/BP or FlyBuys/Shell, first thing that happens is the petrol prices skyrocket ( from $1.15 to $1.55 per litre ). If I desperately need to buy petrol during a high price period I obviously only put a small amount in. At the...

Anyone know any loopholes where you can convert money in a Visa Gift Card into cash or money into a bank account. Could I be able to pay for something with the card and then ask for a refund in cash or bank deposit. Book something using a flexi rate/fare and then cancelling. Could I put money...

When you purchase a Mastercard gift card (with extra $5 fee) can that earn FB points (and SC if you buy over $100) or would they be classified as a normal gift cards and not earn points ?

It's a trick I've heard but not tried. Bet huge amounts on blue ribbons election seats. They only pay out $1.01 per dollar bet but it's not for the money, it's for the points. I've noticed that Bet Easy are no longer taking bets for blue ribbon seats. The shortest odds you will get will be a...

Interesting coincidences here. - Westpac lower there point reduction rate commencing Nov 9, unless you use auto-redemption. - Everyone nervously waits for the next round of bonus points which should be due around this time. - Bonus points time comes around but Westpac conveniently don't take...

Those tickets under the wiper that private car park operators issue for overstaying or not buying a ticket As most people would know, whilst they look like parking fines, when you read them carefully they are actually not, they will say something along the lines of "invoice for liquidated...

If you sign up and use a Coles Master Card for your shopping, does it affect your FB targeted offers. Do they become better or worse. If you start using the card at Woolworths do you start getting targeted offers to get you back.

I am about to go for a holiday in Bali. What would be the best card to book the ticket on. Amex Platinum Edge or ANZ black ?

It has been reported that BP have bought Caltex but have stated that the discount fuel offer will remain. This will leave an interesting situation. Woolworths will have a connection with BP who has a connection with Velocity that now has a connection with Fly Buys which has a Coles. I wonder if...
