I read on Qantas website, that they will expire if no activity on givers acct in 18 months.If they transfer them to you then they won't expire unless your own points are going to expire.
but can't get access to givers acc & they don't know or careThey’d expire after 18 months of no activity.

on qantas site, it says if giver transfers points, it's the givers expiry that counts not the receivers, but don't know the receivers(elderly & too hard to get them to find out)ozflyer you will be safe with those points provided you have activity in your account inside 18 months. That could be credit card earn, Woolies loyalty points, Qantas partner vendors, Epicure/Qantas mall transactions and stuff like that. You could fly too.
no that's why I posted this. From what I read on qantas site, you can't extend points about to expire by transferring them.Qantas don't treat bundles of points separately as far as expiration goes. The total point balance of an account will expire after 18 months of no activity, and a family transfer doesn't reset the clock. But once you have those points in your account they're part of your balance, and would only expire (along with the rest of your balance) if you had no activity for 18 months.
no it's not my acc that has no activity, it's the giversIf in doubt just order the cheapest stuff on the Qantas site. My SIL chose a bottle of Vodka.
Correct.Once the points are in your account the olds account is irrelevant.
i think you are misinterpreting that. What it actually means is that transfer of points are not counted as activity in your account. So if you have 10,000 points about to expire and someone transfers in 1000 points, that does not count as activity and you will lose the whole lot as soon as you hit 18 months, just go and do something that earns you a few points and then you will have 18 months before any points (including ones transferred in) expire.no that's why I posted this. From what I read on qantas site, you can't extend points about to expire by transferring them.
You've been told about 12 times now how it works, if you still don't believe us I'm not sure why you bothered asking here in the first place.
