I've been silent for almost a year on this - but instead of getting over it, time has not dampened my frustration. Platinum One and received a notice that I was receiving a Christmas gift from Qantas. I had received the book set the year before without incident. I received mobile notification on the day the package was to arrive and was at home with the house wide open for the rest of the day. Nothing arrived so I contacted the couriers (I think it was the beloved StarTrack from memory). They complained to ME, that Qantas had dumped all these deliveries on them with little notice and were struggling to deliver. Anyway, four attempts and numerous phone calls and promises of delivery - nothing - then I just gave up. I thought it was probably no great loss until I heard it was Krug! through these pages. Then I was angry. It annoyed me so much that I switched carriers for two more overseas flights and this meant I no longer qualified for Platinum One status. It may seem to some/many that a $300 bottle of booze is a petty reason to ditch P1 status, but if Red Roo still does peruse these pages, this is one reason a P1 bowed out. Not that there was any contact from Qantas when it happened.......
My Sendle package was delivered by Fastway Couriers.

Could be worse, mine got sent to the ex wife. They obviously didn't check my address had changed in the last 6 months.
Oh well, hope she enjoys it......

No longer being P1, the complete lack of care and stress as to what tier gift I may receive, and when, is just fabulous. Thanks QF -- best pressie ever.
Is this the gift for all Platinum Ones or just a select few?

Sounds like you're likely to get back to P1 pretty quick so might get a gift next year.I'm back to flying like a loon (over 1000sc's in 2 months), but can say that while I miss getting a lovely gift I don't value it as much as my 6 months no fly period!!!.
Over the weekend I took 3 QF domestic J flights and noticed on all 3 the CSM's went out of their way to greet me and note my P1 status (and on one sector I think a CL in front of me and an EK elite behind me were also specifically welcomed).
I have no idea if this is a deliberate change or I just got lucky with 3 CSM's in a row, but there seemed to be a change (as I had a flight late last year where my status was also recognised) in recognition.
Anyone else notice a more consistent approach (maybe the ipad issue has been resolved????)
