Looking at the new terms and conditions - refund protection now excludes 'sale and discount' items. This is a really poor change for us. In practice, I don't know how they tell if the item was purchased on sale (unless the invoice notes this).
that's a rather pervasive list of exclusions, isn't it!I didn't realize this list could be so long:
We will not pay for or reimburse any costs arising from or relating to:
Item 6. jewellery; precious stones; rare and precious coins or stamps, one-of-a-kind items including antiques, artwork and furs, cash or its equivalents, travellers’ cheques, tickets, services, PDAs, Smartphones and accessories, recorded media (including but not limited to CDs, DVDs, computer software, video and audio tapes); books; animal and plant life; consumable and perishable goods (i.e. food items); healthcare items; used or rebuilt and refurbished items; sale or discounted items; motorised vehicles and their parts; land and buildings; items permanently affixed to home, office or vehicles.
wow.. that is nice.. had never seen that beforeNot a huge fan of the illustrated designs, would prefer a different colour metal if anything (similar to the way US Gold cardholders can opt for Rose Gold)

Not recently.Has anyone had much success with concierge-assisted restaurant bookings recently?
I've been unsuccessful each time in Sydney unfortunately (for restaurants off the global dining collection).

Apologies, I should've been clearer - the second option.Do you mean just getting a booking made or getting you a table when the restaurant is already booked out?
It's a real bummer and seems to be even worse this year than usual: Obviously, people here in Sydney are really happy that the Lockdowns are finally over- even mediocre places often don't have any availability anymore, particularly on the weekends. Good for the hospitality industry I guess so I won't be complaining!Most places I was looking at about two weeks ago are fully booked for December.
Centurion designs never made it to Ausquite like the two new designs..
wonder if they will come here...
