    Card Promotions Velocity Flyer Card: 25,000 Velocity Pts (with $1500 Spend Each Month) for 4 Months, $129 Virgin Voucher, $64 Fee @ Virgin Money

    Thanks for replying. Just for timeframe reference, I received the points yesterday evening. All in all, it was around 1.5 days after the statement was issued. Looks like it's random when the points decide to hit your account.

    Card Promotions Velocity Flyer Card: 25,000 Velocity Pts (with $1500 Spend Each Month) for 4 Months, $129 Virgin Voucher, $64 Fee @ Virgin Money

    Does anybody know how long it takes for the Velocity points to arrive? I can see from my Virgin Money account that the 60k bonus points have been transferred out but it has not hit my Velocity account yet. Do they hold it in a "points bank" somewhere? :rolleyes:

    Card Promotions NAB Rewards Platinum Credit Card: 60,000 Bonus Velocity Points with $1,000 Spend in 60 Days, $95 Annual Fee

    Signed up for this card 2 weeks ago, got approved the next day and received the card in the mail 2 days later. Card activated and $2k was spent instantly, this was last Tuesday. I noticed that my NAB Rewards was showing the bonus 120k points when I last checked yesterday. Maybe take a...

    Thanks blackcat, looks like the family room is "stayable" for a night or 2 😆

    Did all 4 of you squeeze into the Queen room or was it the Family room that you were in? Thinking of booking for a night this coming October for the fam, thanks.

    MH149 aircraft change and seat fees

    Interestingly, my flight in November this year is still showing as the A350. Would be a shame as I would have liked to try out this new config.

    Lounge Access Help Desk

    Quick one, departing Melbourne on MH J class at 3pm, was it the Qantas International Business Lounge that I have access to or some other lounge? No status whatsoever with any airlines, thanks.

    Seoul/South Korea for Christmas New Year

    Good to see you take the plunge! 😆 Another thing that we struggled a lot were the slippery roads, esepcially after a heavy snowfall and when the ice started to melt. Do be careful. We will be back again this year but in October and with 2 young ones tagging along, will be a whole different...

    Seoul/South Korea for Christmas New Year

    Been there once and while the festivities made it nicer than usual, it was bloody cold. If you don't mind sub-zero freezing temperatures, go for it.

    Velocity points redemption payment error?

    Yep available and I did check ExpertFlyer as well, many seats left. So who really knows what's going on with Velocity 🤷‍♂️

    Velocity points redemption payment error?

    Tried 3 different cards, all failed so not a card problem. All have been used yesterday and today at different vendors. I should have asked the operator what the real issue was... 🤔

    Velocity points redemption payment error?

    Yep tried this morning and had the same issue so I just rang them up. Didn't even need to ask to waive the fee as the operator said she would do it FOC, seems like it might have been a known problem *shrugs*

    Velocity points redemption payment error?

    I have been trying for the past hour to redeem some reward flights from Singapore to Seoul on the website. Everything seems to be working fine right up to the payment page. After I enter my card details for the payment surcharge, I keep getting this annoying error... Has anybody encountered...

    Thank you so much for sharing your personal experience and confirming that in the worse case that we are unable to get both boarding passes for whatever reason, we can just check-in immediately upon arrival 👍

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Awesome that's great to hear, looks like making sure I get both boarding passes is key during the MEL check-in. We will have a few days to spend with friends and family on our return from Seoul so would rather just stay within the Changi vicinity. Having a 10 month old and 3 year old does not...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Another silly question, if the check-in agent does indeed check our bags all the way to ICN, does that mean we will get the boarding passes for both legs and do not need to clear immigration at Changi? This will determine if I am able to book a room at Aerotel (no clearing) or Yotel (need to...

    I am redeeming through Velocity so unable to put them in the 1 booking for this itinerary. Not sure if calling the Velocity helpline to book is possible this way. But will ask the check-in counters nicely to see if they can help out :) Thanks!

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    On that note, @dajop or anybody else for that matter, is it possible for me to send our luggage straight from MEL to ICN without having to retrieve them at Changi if I were to book the following on seperate itineraries? SQ238 10:35-15:15 then next day SQ600 08:00-15:35 If it's not possible...
