Double Status Credits (book by 5/2/18, fly 12/2/18 to 20/1/19)

[dairyfloss]

Have delayed bookings been successful of late?

One of mine has, yes - I was giving it a fair chance for the return set of flight DSCs in the PNRs to show up before posting... but I'll give y'all a preview.

I purchased a few GVs during the promotion booking period, and after the DSC T&C changes that were noted in this thread. I then used 2 of the vouchers later on after the promo booking period had closed to make two separate return trips (with 1 PAX on each) for travel during the promo travel period.

All flights credited regular SCs promptly, as expected, and the return flights on both PNRs have posted the DSCs, but we are still waiting on the outbound segment DSCs to show. Looking a lot like success, though!

Cheers,
Matt.

Success for a few.

Some of us are struggling.

Some of us haven’t even started trying yet. Will be interesting.

Has anyone here made a booking during the DSC promo period, where they booked a QF code/QF metal flight (aka QF prime) but on non-QF ticket stock and had the DSC post correctly?

Christ QF must be having a slow month. Weeks after the double status promo and then last weeks double points promo I awake this morning to receive a targeted offer of bonus 50% status credits on flights booked within the next week for travel up until June 30.

Me too. Which might make my challenge with radically changing a US itinerary a lot simpler. About half of the SCs from my original trip would have been earned on codeshares, which were not eligible for DSCs. However, my understanding is that today's 50% bonus offer applies to all flights with a QF number, so the overall result would be about the same if I cancel and make a new booking.

Same. Are you WP? It’s worded to help me get to WP1, of which I am 1800 credits short, and year ends end of April. Ya dreaming Qantas.

Yep, mine also includes the "Soar to Platinum One" blurb. I'm currently on zero SCs!

Get this go to make the bookings with QFF with the new offer. Ask if QantasLink flights count for DSC. I got asked what is QantasLink and who are they. Can you believe that............. She had to go and ask her Supervisor who QF Link is WOW...............are they out of touch with their own business ans staff. I think its well overdue for a new CEO.

Calm down, mate. Just because one staff member hasn't received adequate training, the CEO should be replaced? Talk about throwing the baby out with the bath water.

This site needs a LOL rating!

 

[snooze]

Yeah i got the same email today as well also tempting me to soar to Platinum one. I currently only have 30 credits to my name with it expiry date in December. Unfortunately for QF im not trying for Platinum again (7 years as Platinum). Travel habbits are changing and no longer going out of my way to book QF. I'll miss the first class lounge, but thats about it.

Still no double SCs for flights 2 weeks ago. I'm guessing this one will go to arbitration.

Received the 50% bonus SC offer today. I toyed with the idea of making a new booking but instead chose to try and make a delayed multi-city booking for 2 weeks time and only needed 1 call for the consultant to make the booking. SYD-BNE-SIN one way so hoping for 80 SCs.

Well, I'd love to 'soar to Platinum' but with QF HBA-MEL-HBA twice as much $ as VA for the day I want to take, looks like I'll be more like the start of this clip:

Same here still no DSC credits from International flights 2 1/2 weeks ago. Rang QFF and they told me that I had booked on the 31st at 8pm UTC time. Had to convince the operator to ask Supervisor about the time conversion that made it 7am AEDT when the booking was made which did qualify for the DSC. Got email to tell me that I would have to wait 8 weeks for it to be done manually as per the "Product Facilitator" says whoever that is.

While the eagles soar, some of us are left behind with the turkeys.

I haven't checked, but don't the T&Cs of such offers normally say bonus points could take up to 6 weeks to credit? I'd hold off on the lawyers just for the moment.
