Hi all,

I missed the 30% off sale as want to go to WOW AGM (Brisbane 27th Nov)
Joined infrequentflyer club.

Which Debit card do you use to book flights so no fee charged?
 
Any Aussie MasterCard, inc BankWest Qantas product, and qf cash but no virgin card, lol
 
I need more options I think...only mastercard is 28 degrees Credit card :(

Can you pay anyone direct from bank account to Tiger?

Looks like I have a MEbank Debit card....

No Poli, or bank account option.
Use my Qantas Cash card for Tiger payments !

Most of the prepaid cards seem to be Visa
 
Can you think of a Virgin branded MasterCard in debit form?

Um no. Just seems a bit of a joke that a now (apparently) wholly owned VA airline won't take a VA branded card but will take a QF branded card. I'm not particularly bothered (in fact I'm not bothered at all).

They may accept the QF card but will QF cash authorise it, for instance I note any Virgin transaction on QF cash won't authorise unless you mask it via paypal?
 
Have had no issues on QFCash. I would have thought they would be breaching some MasterCard rules if blocking specific transactions

Nope, both Visa and Mastercard allow licencees to black as they see fit, such as gambling sites. You cannot buy lotto online from Tatts with a Citibank card regardless of its upstream provider for instance. It could have been a temp issue but it has happened twice to me now, making me think otherwise.
