Hi Guys
Am new here in terms of being registered but have been lurking and reading unregistered for a few months.
Almost 40 years of age living in Melbourne. I work as a Workplace Relations Advisor but don't have the luxury (yes I know all you that travel constantly get bored of it easily but people that don't believe it to be a luxury!) of travelling for work.
We have very recently joined the Velocity Program (both me and my Wife).
Took up the Amex Platinum Card Offer as well as the Virgin Money Std Visa Offers recently so will be starting our Velocity Account with a pooled balance of 130 000 points to start without even stepping foot in a plane.
Also looking to join a hotel rewards program. Leaning between IHG or HH Honours as we intend to hopefully start travelling a bit more often. Especially with a 130K start on Velocity without having spent a sent or ever jumping on a Virgin plane!
Am leaning to iHG as can "buy in" to the now second top tier (Platinum Elite) by signing onto Ambassador Program and then subsequently taking out the IHG Dining Rewards Cards. We are at a stage in our lives where we don't want to slum it in lower class accommodation anymore!
Look forward to learning heaps from you guys!
Just bought the Beginners Guide to Velocity so hope to get some tricks from that but more importantly have you guys help us out and learn more!
