Missing Double Status Credits from Travel Pass

Trying to see if I can do a status run before a big set of international trips that just came up - does anyone have any recent data points on how long TravelPass DSCs take to credit recently, or is it still >= 6 weeks?

If so, has anyone had any success asking QFF for it to be credited early to attain a new tier (I usually wouldn't, but when you're 🤏 that close...)
 
Well there was a run seemingly on Sunday 26th June, and I had DSC from flights taken 4th and 6th june post

but as we have seen this is "Consistently Inconsistent"(tm)

I would say within 4 weeks but there's no way I'd bank on it if intending DSC to post to up a status level or renew.

Remember, of course, that even if DSC post after an anniversary date they will apply to the membership year in which earned.

I called QF about 3 weeks before my April year end asking them to credit TravelPass DSC earned on flights one week prior as soon as possible to avoid any end of year rollover issues. DSCs posted one week after call 🙏👍

Not sure how you pulled this off, but I took my TravelPass DSC flights 3 weeks ago and I've called up QFF a few times asking if they could credit them before my trip overseas next week, but sadly I've been knocked back every time. Perhaps you just got lucky with a scheduled run timing.

Fingers crossed for me a scheduled run for TravelPass DSCs happens in the next 5 days 🤞
 
Yeah, I'm waiting on some DSCs from July-early August to post. It doesn't actually matter for me, both because my year is far away and I'm unlikely to get close to P1, but I keep checking just to make sure they go in.
 
Well, would you look at that: My TravelPass DSCs just credited. Did anyone else get them today too?

Wondering if it's a scheduled run, or if my emails got actioned
Same here, received TP DSC for flight in June, though I had also sent 2x emails to QFF with no response.

Booking end this month will use remaining $$ on the DSC pass. Must *try* to wait patiently for scheduled batch processing run 🙄😁

Mine went through last night for a trip in July, still short a few, but that should be sorted with a quick visit to Christchurch next week. I was a bit concerned as I thought I may have stuffed up the original booking.

Double status credits finally posted this evening making me Platinum until October 2024

Nice.

My base DSC from the travel pass finally posted as well, but I now need to claim the ORC (including DSCs on those) plus am still waiting to receive the ORC from flights taken under the Thanks A Million DSC - lodeged the request by phone (and email) over a week ago, not joy so far.

Assuming all those come through I will be 4 SCs short of Platinum until my next flight.
 
Has anyone that accepted double status credits as part of of a Travel Pass credit instead of a refund been given the DSC’s after taking a flight?
If so, can you say how long it taken to be credited.

Thanks.
Me me me had travel pass with DSC and interesting enough was denied boarding on that supposed DSC flight to LHR from Melbourne and had to wait over a year to get just my normal flight status credits to my QF account. Waiting (long long) from February 2022 and points only received October 2023. I was bumped to a Qatar airways flight. The reason I was denied boarding is not believable so I won’t write about it. I have found the original email and written about the DSC promo and no reply yet. The only thing I can see is that I used the travel pass (plus) my credit card to match the new price. Without the matching Qantas Passes associated booking number from the previously mothballed flight.

Anyway frustrating because it takes ridiculously long to sort these things out when it shouldn’t
