Bonus 500 points for switching to Qantas points with WW

[jc14]

Just received the below email from Qantas. Most likely targeted as I have been using the "Bank for Christmas" option, although now wondering if any of my banked amount will now be transfered to Qantas points or available to use as "$10 off" at my next WW shop.

Not long back I was offered 2000 WR points to switch to Bank for Xmas across most of our family accounts. I wonder if we will now be offered 500 QF points to switch back

Not sure I want to cash out all my Apple-GC-earned Woolworths Pesos for Qantas points at this time, so I'll be skipping this offer.

500 QFF points for using regular auto transfer of WWR/EDR points to QFF is a bit low.
2000 points, maybe.
IF QFF SC was brought into the mix, on a regular basis, like FB, then yes, do the transfer, but as it is, I would say no.
Also, there is more chances under QFF of your points being misused, as has been mentioned here, not all that long ago.
With WWR/EDR, you would have it tougher to prove who you are, when you try to log into your WWR/EDR account, as 2fa is always used, ie, in my case, when ever I go to log into my WWR/EDR account, they always want to send a 6 digit code to my mobile phone.
Where as with QFF, its seems that you only have sometimes asked, for the answer to the 3 secret questions.
Not so bad too, if QFF always uses 2fa for everything, yes, pain in the ***, but at the least, it might prevent points from being misused, by others who somehow know your QFF log in details.

I have never tried but a colleague told me his $50 of Christmas Savings all became QF points the following day much to his disappointment.

Thanks SydneySwan, just checked my account and it did appear to have automatically converted my Christmas Savings into points. Luckily it was only $10 tho.
