My bonus points from both my current purchase and my previous one (a month ago) both hit my account today. The most recent purchase arrived today.

I hope others have had similar success

I received regular points for October purchases yes, but bonus points no. The last time I received bonus points they showed up a month after the regular points as a separate entry:

08 JAN 13 QANTAS EPIQURE BONUS POINTS 08JAN13--- 16,000 0

Interesting. After a quick look through my QFF account and my Epicure spreadsheet, I note that there is no Epicure 24SEP13 entry - rather it should relate to the following entry:

09 OCT 13QANTAS EPIQURE BONUS POINTS 09OCT13---9710

So I got my bonus points (that is, the additional 3 x bonus points to reach the intended 6 x for that offer). Todays haul is the standard points (971), my bonus 3K (for the dozen) and a special special bonus of 8K (I note it's after my 6th case in my second year of membership) :D

Agree re: bonus. Just checked last Bonus pts and it took a while:

I find myself holding out for an offer similar to last year where we got a big stash of bonus points for buying 2 cases was it? I've had a look lately, and despite some wines looking good, even at 6 points/$ I'm getting better value booking a hotel room with a bottle of wine and breakfast the next morning than through epiqure, at least as far as points go.

I'm with you Sam, am also waiting and hoping for an offer similar to the one we got last Christmas.
 
I think Epiqure have had some issues with their points, my last order (early Oct) the bonus points posted straight away, and the regular point just yesterday..
 
No - the times do not overlap. 6 points per dollar over $250 is only until Thursday 31 Oct. From Friday 1 Nov, the bonus offer of spend $1,000 and receive 6 free bottles of Taittinger starts.

My email has a different wording to the above and says this:

* Qantas epiQure members earn 3 Qantas Points per dollar spent on wine and event ticket purchases made using a credit card through qantasepiqure.com.au (but note points are not earned on purchases made by redeeming points). If Qantas epiQure members spend $250 or more in one transaction before 5pm AEDT 1 November 2013 the number of Qantas Points earned doubles to 6 Qantas Points per $1 spent. Allow up to 6 weeks for points to appear in your Qantas Frequent Flyer account. Qantas Points are earned on purchases in accordance with and subject to the Qantas Frequent Flyer program terms and conditions.

Looks like there is an uncertain period between 9am 31 Oct and 5pm 1 Nov - don't buy during that time!

So from my reading, isn't the period between 0000AEDT and 1700AEDT theoretically eligible for both bonuses?

I can't see any t+c a for the champagne offer, if someone could pls link to them, but the 6ppd doesn't say it can't be used with other offers I think.

Just got this oneView attachment 20239

I had my TA book it Friday but paid Monday so not sure if i'll qualify.

Second offer from WF that's come exactly one day after I've booked something. Annoying.

To be honest though, (unless it was just my computer), your message was illegible! Was too small and I couldn't zoom it.

Whoops, was looking at the details in my original post.

As you point out, there may be a short window based on the email info about bonus points where you can be eligible for both offers.

They might be obligated to honour that, but best bet is to ring up first - if the whole point of you buying during that time is to get both offers.

The only T&Cs re the Taittinger offer are "while stocks last".
 
Can anyone reconcile these 2 things for me?

First, footnotes to e-mail received 29/10/13, subject "bonus point offers and great value mixed cases". Says 6 point offer up to 5pm AEDT 1 November 2013.

Second, pop up when I put my order in tonight. Says 6 point offer valid until 9am AEDT 31 October 2013.

I suspect the T&C's of the email would override what you see when ordering.

If a midday Friday purchase did not credit the 6pts per $ automatically, you would probably have to work at getting the proper credit.

FWIW, clicking the "Having trouble viewing this email? Click here to view the online version." link at the top of the email produces the 5pm Friday condition.

My plan is to order at about 9am AEDT on the 1st, then ring if it doesn't post with 6ppd and my free champagne... I'd never even seen the other (31st) offer end date up until just then.

But isn't it annoying to have 2 different things come up? I think I will make an order Friday lunch time to see if the pop-up occurs.

As cynicor observes, there is an overlap period for the champers offer as well. Save those screen shots!
 
The 6 points per $ often features when there is no bonus points, usually in the subsequent weeks the bonus point offers are very generous, the champers offer runs a while, I would wait.
