    Is it Time to transfer/withdraw points from Velocity?

    Yeah I worry about this as well I had 360k to redeem I did a stack of JB 100's but didn't want to do the entire lot with JBHIFI incase they deny most of them due to the loop hole Ended up getting a kitchen aid mixer... Hurt like a mof_ to redeem that, but i guess it made sense to spread the risk...

    Hilton Macquarie Card Discontinued 1 May 2019.

    Got the email as well. Sucks. The Macquarie black card has a points cap of 4k and the points are not transferable. So I'll be cancelling the card

    What lounges to use for Melb and HKG?

    Awesome. I fly out to Canada the next day with air Canada so perhaps I'll try the Amex centurion lounge before that flight since that leg is in economy!

    Hilton Honors Macquarie Platinum Card

    Yep Mongkok. I wanted to use my free hilton weekend night for conrad but I haven't got the voucher yet. I've never redeemed or used my hilton points but based on my calculations 30k is a good for standard king room and I'll get the perks of diamond. Better than transferring to velocity. Don't...

    Metal Platinum card

    Been using the platinum metal card for a while now and basically no issues. The only small issue is if you want to scan your card with an app instead of manually typing in the numbers, most apps can't read it. Not a big issue.
