Qff Status Credits Question

[gmartin010]

Guys

I traveled to South Africa in October 2012 economy class and earned 80 status credits as a result.


I again traveled to South Africa early in Feb 2013 but flew on a partner airline, South African airways so am waiting on the points and status credits to hit my account.


But I just had a look at my account and it says that my 80 status credits have expired on 28 Feb 2013. Is this normal? Do they normally reset at a certain date no matter when you travel?


Thanks guys.

Your Status Credits are reset at the end of your membership year, which in your case is Feb 28.

I would say you joined QFF in a February.

This is quite normal and from when you joined your SC tally will always reset at the end of Feb - this year the 28th, last year the 29th.

Thanks Guys

Probably lucky that my partner airline points havent come through yet but I am assuming I wont get my 80 status credits from that flight because I traveled prior to 28 Feb 2013.

They will credit in the status year that you travelled so wont help with qualification for the year ending 28 Feb 2014. They will however count towards your lifetime total SCs.

Thanks that sorts out my question.

Cheers for the help.

As mentioned, it's a yearly thing. I had to weep a little when my reset:

It's a regular sob each year on the 28th!

But rejoice! you got 200 points from buying petrol, so all is not lost.

With you on that. I had all but planned how I was going to get Silver this year but now have to come up with another plan. Maybe do a status run or something..

I had quite a big weep this year

Not only did you have around 3x the SC's you also had around 3x the petrol points.

I have major amounts of catch-up to do (that said, I have to maintain VA WP, QF WP and TK *G, which I am actually managing to do at present).

Which, according to an iPhone app I have, is around an increase of 0.08% of my points balance

I have the same number of SC's as you, but 3x again the petrol points!

An A380 perhaps?!

Was this a QF or SA flight number ?

Hi Mwenenzi

This was a SA flight number.

Ahh yes but I win on LTSC's

Current lifetime Status credits: ​

8,576

And I have another 2500 or so of planned SC's for this year so far (It's going to be a huge year, and I thought my 200k miles last year was epic!).

What are you filling up, a road train?!?!

With the current 4 points per litre promo, that's around 395L of fuel, so if you have the little keychain EDR cards for the entire family, it mounts up (and if you have 4WD's, there's an easy 100L per car for some of them!).
