Earn up to 110 Qantas Status Credits on the ground

IHG are proving to be very slow... I chased up on the website through chat, and it was just a bot that was useless and kept telling me the good news was that the points had been credited... I kept telling it that I knew it said so on their system, but they had not gone to my Qantas account. And round in circles we went... asking for "agent" did not send me to a human.

I then found a different option on the app itself that took me to an iMessage service where I think it was a human. I was told it can take 2-4 weeks... I am already up to 2.5 weeks.

I hope the points arrive in time as I really need that 10 SC boost, as I will be tantalisingly close to gold by May...

Had to double check the "Fuels and Cars" figure of 603 points today.

Can confirm that the 603 points are a mix of Uber airport trips and BP Rewards.

BP Rewards did reply to my email eventually, but they messed up the 10x bonus. Ended up with an extra 440 points - 10x44 points for a fuel purchase and not the 10x on the Dare 500ml purchase.

Will be enough to put me over 1000 points for the category so another 10SC coming up.

Great success! 10SC posted for Fuels and Cars.

As a data point, I spoke to IHG live chat on 15 November and asked to transfer points to Qantas. They were expiring anyway. Qantas points landed on 5 Dec as "PRIORITY CLUB BONUS".
 
I had an online order with Skechers via Qantas shopping a week back to get me over the line for my last status credits.

Tracking email was received.
Now, we wait and pray!
The points for my various ebay shops through the Qantas site have been coming in this week - about 1 month after I placed the orders. Much to my shock even Kogan managed to send through the points as well.

I've looked up my transfer to get this 10 SC (sorry hadn't remembered it was IHG) - applied online 9/10, hit QFF 10/10, dated 9/10 (which is important)...but @Flyingwombat are you transferring or waiting on points from a stay?

Stay - check out 1 December. I'm hoping it means that it will be dated 1 December whenever it lands....
 
FWIW, the status credits for my stay in early October at a hotel booked through Qantas Hotels were booked with an early November activity date - which was a relief because my new membership year started 1 November. The points themselves had an October activity date.
 
It took four weeks for my IHG stay to post but shows the date of the stay as the activity date.
They just landed now! They were not there when I looked a short while ago. Strange entry as it just has the city - no mention of Crowne Plaza or IHG... I assume this will trigger the SCs in a couple of days. The activity date is check in date (30/11).

Folks needing to complete 'fuel and cars' should check their emails.

This morning, I got a (possibly targeted) email from Qantas inviting me to activate an offer with BP for 3x250 points for three visits (no minimum spend it seems) by 31 January. Time to go and buy a few more bags of chips...

(Needn't have bought all those overpriced boxes of Favourites it seems. Hindsight's a wonderful thing...)

Has anyone had these points credited yet?
And if not, can anyone recall whether BP / Qantas has ever run a similar promo and how long they took?

Trying to decide if I chase this final loop, and searching BP in this forum isn’t allowed because its not enough characters 🤷‍♂️

As a musing, wouldn’t it have been such an extra incentive if you got an extra 20 (or any number) of SCs if you completed them all? Like an extra bit of final incentive to go all out!
