Thank you for your loyalty

P1 this year?

I got to Platinum in the first 3 months, but that was more to good fortune and timing of things I could control to benefit. (I had deliberately dropped to gold so that this year could be planned a little more.) It did cross my mind, but circumstances conspired otherwise.

...and comes 3 days before the start of my new year when I could have actually used it. ...its 150 SCs that dissapear in 3 days and don't count to anything. Thanks for nothing Qantas

Huh? How does your member year start in 3 days? I was under the impression everyone's member years end on the last day of the relevant month and commence on the first day of the relevant month.

You're right, my membership year ends Sep 30, but my email said they would be in my account by the latest Sep 30 - so I sort of assumed it would be late Sep hence the "3 day" guess. I guess it will be in the range of 27-1 days to early for me!

Qf getting plenty of value from the IT work experience kids:
Ms Basalt has a points balance of 6156 consisting of 1556 existing points + 5000 gift points, however when attempting to transfer to me:

I sent Qantas some feedback to say the bonus status credits are of zero value unless I have the option of getting them in the next membership year. Let’s see if I get a reply.

Did the same....crickets

Opened my Qantas acount this morning to a pop up that congratulated me for retaining Gold...... In fact i reached this level months ago - Qantas are trying to gaslight me that the worthless 80 SC "loyalty" gift actually acheived something.
I'll say it again - a SC gift for those that are close to end of membership year and have already acheived status for next year, IS OF NO VALUE WHATSOEVER....
I showed MY loyalty Qantas - and you Qantas, have shown the exact opposite.....

Good Lord. That’s nothing new. Showing loyalty to an airline especially with Qantas is a waste of time & effort and especially a waste of money.

reading here how they have ballsed up the ‘loyalty gift’ thing only underlines that.

QF’s gift of 150 SC that don’t count to LTSC shows they don’t care about my loyalty when a cursory look at my activity and bookings would show it would be of no use to me

I intend to continue to progress towards LTG and then as the LTP target is ridiculous I’ll likely start flying other airlines more internationally at least.

QF playing with changing the goalposts would make going for LTP very risky even if the LTSC required for it was not ridiculous.
