Yes I am in the same position.The monthly for returning customers discount BLACKFRIDAY30OFF is still working - I just checked - but not worth it for me as it's a savings of just AUD$50 for 1 month, so not worth it for me to start early when I only need the points for next year.
Hi, did u go through with the installment option? It wasn't taking in my visa or mastercard for some reason.Does anyone know or have experience knowing that if I pay the Annual absolute plan by via instalments, Is that different to the rule that the Coupon discount is only applied to the first subscription charge (Monthly/Quarterly)?
Just because the instalments drop down adds up to the 30% discounted number, but there's still the asterisk of the coupon being applied to the first subscription charge.
I don't believe there is a way to pay for the annual plan, in monthly installments... that's what the monthly and quarterly ones are about. The base pricing is the same for all three versions, but the one-off discount is highest for the annual plan, which you pay in one lump sum.Does anyone know or have experience knowing that if I pay the Annual absolute plan by via instalments, Is that different to the rule that the Coupon discount is only applied to the first subscription charge (Monthly/Quarterly)?

We've seen in the past that there are issues with most (all?) prepaid and travel cards, vs a traditional bank-issued card. Is this a possible factor for yours?Hi, did u go through with the installment option? It wasn't taking in my visa or mastercard for some reason.
According to the T&Cs, instalments are available on the annual (and quarterly) plans. I would guess the difference is that in an annual plan, you are committed for the year, while monthly can be cancelled after a month...I don't believe there is a way to pay for the annual plan, in monthly installments... that's what the monthly and quarterly ones are about.

Interesting - I may have missed out on a BF deal when I initially signed up then, if that’s the case! That said… the bloggers do state that the BF discounts only apply to the first payment, so I’d hazard a guess that the ‘Annual installments’ plan is discounted only for the first month.According to the T&Cs, instalments are available on the annual (and quarterly) plans.

Just curious, does anyone know with status points if you get it for all the rooms you booked or just yours like status night. So booking say 4 rooms but all just booked through my account.
Trying to work out rough status points and seeing if im close to diamond with ALL signature.

2 rooms according to OMAAT report attached. I would try any put all the costs to your room folio which might get you points on all the rooms assuming the system just thinks you had a high stay cost on you room.Just curious, does anyone know with status points if you get it for all the rooms you booked or just yours like status night.

It’s up to two rooms for status points, but you can charge everything else to your room during the stay and get those points at leastJust curious, does anyone know with status points if you get it for all the rooms you booked or just yours like status night.

Did anyone go ahead and subscribe using an annual plan, paid in instalments? It would be nice to get the full annual discount and still spread the payments over a year, but still not sure if that is what will happen?Yeah so I haven't done it as of yet. But with the installments as @oz_mark has stated, it does show the price per installment does equate to the 30% off discounted value of the annual price. So technically based on what the payment screen shows, it should be fine. The only caveat is that the asterisk on the first payment which caused my confusion. It's one of those things where I don't know which information to believe.
It was very clear that the discount only applies to the first payment.Did anyone go ahead and subscribe using an annual plan, paid in instalments? It would be nice to get the full annual discount and still spread the payments over a year, but still not sure if that is what will happen?
Actually no, if you read up thread.It was very clear that the discount only applies to the first payment
Where are you getting the idea from that you can pay an annual plan in instalments? There is certainly no option to do so during the sign up process.Actually no, if you read up thread.
There is a difference between monthly subscription- where discount clearly applies only to the first payment - and an annual subscription using the the option to split into 12 instalments. As noted above the website shows the price for each instalment with the full discount applied.
I’m interested in whether anyone has actually chosen the instalment option.
If you choose annual, then when you get to the final payment page, under “credit card” a drop down appears with the heading “instalments” and gives a selection from 1 - 12 instalments. As noted previously, if you choose 12 instalments the total of the 12 adds up to the discounted annual rate. You are still committing to the full annual fee.Where are you getting the idea from that you can pay an annual plan in instalments? There is certainly no option to do so during the sign up process.
