Did anyone else just receive an email like this? Mine says:

"Thank you for your loyalty. To show our appreciation, we're giving you 150 Status Credits and 2,500 Qantas Points. These will be added to your Frequent Flyer account by 30 September 2025 and will contribute towards your annual status. There's nothing you need to do in order to receive them."

Received similar - 40 Status Credits and 2,500 Qantas Points

Clearly I'm not as loyal or valuable :)

Well I'm not P1 or even WP so fair enough.
 
80 Status Credits, no points.

LTG with virtually no points or SC earn on QF metal for about 10 years (have had more recent earn on JQ though).

TL;DR for anyone who hasn't read the website yet, here's what everyone is getting.

Status Credits
  • Platinum One: 300 Status Credits
  • Platinum: 150 Status Credits
  • Gold: 80 Status Credits
  • Silver: 40 Status Credits
  • Bronze: 40 Status Credits if there's activity in the last 18 months
Points Club
  • Points Club Plus: 5,000 Qantas Points
  • Points Club: 2,500 Qantas Points
For example, someone who's Gold with Points Club Plus will get 80 Status Credits + 5,000 points.

Yes.

it’s been widely discussed since it was announced yesterday including in the Points Club thread here and the DSC thread here.
 
With existing bookings only the points benefit me and after the recent increase to points required for upgrades and classic rewards, 2,500 is not much at all. But anything is better than nothing.

I thought the point was OP got an email with both SC and points. They did not mention that they were a PC member.

Has anyone got this and is not a PC member?

Aha! So you’re the ghost they’re trying to smoke out, LTG locked in and not a single flight in a decade. :p Is it true that people ditch QF for another airline once you had the LTG in your pocket?

🤣 Yes indeed.

I have had quite a few QF operated flights, but only classic awards. Although as I live abroad QF really don't meet my needs (and LTG achievement happened shortly after moving) so there is that ... and the fact that they don't operate any daytime flights from Asia to Australia.

Now I have had a few QF marketed flights (operated by EK) between SIN & MEL and SIN & BNE before EK ceased them completely. (Actually sorry I lied, I had a couple of these where I did SIN-BNE-MEL-SIN with the longer sectors operated by EK and BNE-MEL obviously operated by QF).
 
For those whose minds immediately start thinking about the data like this when they see such offers and occasions - like mine clearly does - please enjoy this small and interesting table:

The additional row in the P1 section is so we may address the % of both the total AND QF marketed components of retention (which I assume this bonus would go toward?)

Cheers,
Matt.

I think NB are the true winners on this table. The gifted 40SC provide them precisely 100% of the SC required for status retention. As a WP, I feel comparatively ripped off 😜

LTS and LTG are different again as the status credits neither help attain or retain their current level - more about the level above.
