Interesting. They're targeting the September anniversary members?
I'm not feeling lucky being a June anniversary member
Someone did mention algorithm as to the logic of this offer. I will only see logic if all people declare their anniversary FF date, as my theory (with very limited personal experience) is that you may tend to get it 1-2 months after anniversary. I got mine last year in early Aug (year begins 1/7) and promptly booked a flex Y to Rome in Sept/Oct to maximise the bonus so I can cruise into Gold without breaking the bank on overpriced tickets. I previously got to Gold by flying J over the ditch to AKL (80SC) the previous year (relatively better value than International J at 4 times fhe Y price), as you largely have to buy your way into Gold - if you are a mere leisure traveller rather than a Titan of Industry whose tickets are perhaps paid for.
My last two offers were in August 2014 (straight after I got back from a J trip with QF/EK to Europe) and this one on Monday (straight after I booked another J trip to Europe with QR). But my anniversary date is 31 December so it doesn't appear to hold for me.
My anniversary date is also towards the end of the year (Halloween) and both our offers are at exactly the same time (August 2014 and now February 2015 this week on Monday), so we should start comparing notes as to when we receive the next one...
I agree with JohnK,They are random offers.
Yep. I recall reading this caveat in the terms and conditions whenever there has been a bonus SC or points offer. You essentially cannot make any changes to an otherwise eligible booking if you are to take advantage of the offer.Talking to the Qantas reps, it seems that in changing the date of the flight, the date of booking the ticket is now taken as the change date, rendering the ticket ineligible for the bonus status offer.

I believe so, though happy for anyone who has particular experience with this type of situation to advise.I also read that in my T&C for a recent offer, and am just seeking an additional point of clarification: Does any change to an itinerary render all other sectors ineligible?
This morning I received a 50% bonus SC offer for new bookings until 1 March and travel until 23 June

(I have a return multi-stop trip to Europe coming up, departing May, returning 6 weeks later and including 4 eligible long haul sectors, so quite a few SCs riding on this).
Does this mean that if I change the last sector at all I would lose bonus for all previous sectors?
I guess so but just want to be sure.
Thanks,
