At least as a WP you have arrivals access at MEL T1 domestic business lounge.

Manual review is only an option as P1 as far as I know. Usually the do it automatically if the computer say no

A P1 manual review in my experience usually happens very quickly. If you put the request in on a weekday in the morning they will look at it that afternoon. If you do it on a Friday arvo or weekend it will get looked at first thing on Monday. If you do it on a weekday arvo it will be looked at the next morning.

The catch is that they don’t send you the email to let you know that it’s been looked at until 24-48 hours (which is the time they say it takes for a response).

You just need to go into your booking and if it says confirmed you know that it’s been approved and if it still says requested it’s been denied

That's true. Might go the domestic J lounge for a shower & meal before heading into the city. Already booked 2 meetings in the city on 01 Feb, so would be nice to get going asap.
