Earn up to 110 Qantas Status Credits on the ground

It's not so unusual for Qantas promotion to be paid sometime later.
I think by now we have largely figured out the Qantas approach:
  1. Qantas marketing come up with an idea at the pub, head back to office, fire out an email to the entire customer base, pick an arbitrary date in the future, sometimes forget to set a subject line in the email
  2. Send email to IT who are busy still trying to work out how they are going to award 20 SCs to someone for transactions that are unlikely to credit by the end of the year because they haven't yet got to that hair brained marketing email
  3. Try, try, try again until the results look vaguely correct. Timidly roll out the promo to customers over the next week or so, brace for a million emails
  4. We're a week in - noone's complaining much. Locked and loaded, points start spraying out automatically, good luck now if it's wrong
  5. Alright, what's this email from marketing with a picture of the back of a beer coaster sent through on Friday afternooon all about?

Interested to know if anyone that received compensation from BP for the unapplied discount subsequently received the discount on a second visit?
 
Very interesting. No scs posted here either, earliest qualifying activity should have been the 7th, well inside the dates others have shared.

I wonder if the people at Qantas have fun watching us try to figure out the rhyme and/or reason to this.

Also noticed that my spend during the BP offer week invoked the AGL 6c/l discount, not the BP one, so I wonder if that will impact the points earn.
 
I haven’t got the BP offer but checked my transaction history and despite always purchasing BP Ultimate (2 points per dollar), they only been giving me 1 per dollar. Awaiting a response… hopefully any backdated points count towards this.
 
Just 10 SC but only 2 weeks! OMG that = 14 sleepless nights... none the less a good 1st world problem to have. You will report back right? I mean we need to know!
I will update everyone! Really taking "cutting it fine" to a new level
