Do not look a 'gift horse' in the mouth boys and girls and transfer before 31 May...

Did our transfer today, we had 11+K FB points so thats about 5700 VA points with bonus. Rebuilding hubbys points stash - I hit it pretty hard last year and last month.

Took minutes for the points to come through.

Just got this reply from Velocity

Hi the cat is out of the bag. Due to popular demand we will be extending the 20% bonus on flybuys transfers. Stay tuned for more details.

I THOUGHT I saw on my Flybuy account yesterday it was June 10th but today it had May 31st so I thought it was just a screw up.

ANZ Rewards have been reporting extension until 10th June for some time. ANZ Rewards - Velocity May 2018

I'm not transferring my Amex MR points anymore. I have lots of points in Velocity for flying, but my MR points are better value for purchasing hotel accommodation than when trying to do the same thing in Velocity - even with the 15% bonus.
Regards,
Renato

64,000 Flybuys is $320 off shopping or 33,408 Velocity points which is 24,746 KrisFlyer miles.

If you're not earning points quickly enough no point transferring to Velocity even with the bonus.

For some bizarre reason I thought 10,000 was the minimum required. Thanks for the reminder that I'm a fool - transferred the 7,000 in my account across just now.

I can’t see anything about June 10th on my FB account, so have emptied my account just now.
Thanks for the bonus time ANZ!

I transferred 10 lots of points from Citibank on morning of 29 May. 2 lots hit my VFF account on 30 May. Don't know where the rest is.

Missing the 15% bonus on a Citi transfer though I got the 20% booster bonus - weird and a PITA if I have to contact them.....

Extended to 10 June:-

WE’VE EXTENDED OUR BEST-EVER TRANSFER OFFER UNTIL 10 JUNE 2018.

Earn up to 40% bonus Points, on transfers from participating card partners. The more you transfer, the bigger your bonus, the further you’ll go.

Plus, when you transfer from ANZ Rewards, ANZ Business Rewards or flybuys, you’ll earn 20% bonus Points.

Transfer every last point to Velocity by 10 June, it could be the difference between Melbourne and Montreal.

Extended to 10 June:-

I transferred on 31st and the Flybuys transfer is now on my VA activity statement but for 0 points. Anyone similar?

EDIT: My mistake. I had forgotten I was pooling to mrs andye and it didn't mention it had pooled over

My points have been credited back to Citibank. Apparently you can't have 2 transfers of the same amount of points on the same day.

 

[Warks]

I forgot to transfer but just found an email which says it's extended to 10 June. I've got over 100K points on a card I don't use any more so I'm probably better to transfer now.

Took me three computers in three different locations trying about six different browsers to finally be able to transfer points from FlyBuys.

A couple of the browsers couldn't get to the transfer page, half the browsers had the final Transfer button greyed out, and of all browsers it was only Internet Explorer that managed it.

Velocity points and bonus points received quickly as usual.

 

[Scr77]

There is a 15% flybuys transfer on until 31 July. I transferred hundreds of thousands of points during the May promo and should be over the annual limit. I was able to transfer more under this months promotion, suggesting that the annual limit is not being enforced.

 

[albyd]

This was my experience too in recent days. Hopefully they have removed the limit particularly with the official disbanding of the EY partnership with FB recently.

I would speculate that, based on a 'cryptic' email received from Amex yesterday, VFF will be having another transfer bonus deal in August...
