Hope it's nice accomodation...

Oh, it is. Stayed there before. Private pool accommodation!

First time booking through Virgin Holidays, thanks to the DSC promotion, and decided on a little holiday to Bali in J for next year. $2700 for 670SC (SYD-MEL-DPS-SYD), which is $4/SC, leaving me just 130SC to retain WP!

Not sure if I'm going crazy but struggling to understand your math, how does this equate to 670SC?

Not sure how you got to 670. HBA-MEL-DPS return got me 480 credits.

Today I can't even book via VA Holidays as it gets stuck on the 'Customise your trip'.
Cannot get to step 4, to enter my payment details :/

I've tried several times. This is just unacceptable. Advertising a promotion, which isn't actually possible to complete, would be in breach of ACCC advertising rules (probably falls under 'bait advertising').

Will try on my phone instead to see if I have any luck!


Edit: After several attempts on desktop, it finally worked. It really shouldn't be this hard.

Been stuck on same all day today, 3 different devices, MacBook pro, iPhone and windows pc. I have called 3 times and its all my devices apparently. Cleared cache as instructed, no luck. Different browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) same result. Next time on my phone same result 2 different browsers. 3rd device same result 2 different browsers. Tried booking a different room same hotel and got the same result. Next I tried several other hotels and exact same result. Extremely frustrating and the lack of help is typical. I can not even give them my money!

DSC for SYD-MEL would be 55x2=110.
DSC for MEL-DPS would be 140x2=280.
DSC for DPS-SYD would be 140x2=280.
Total SCs for SYD-MEL-DPS-SYD would be 670.

DSC for MEL-DPS would be 140x2=280.
DSC for DPS-SYD would be 140x2=280.
Total SCs for SYD-MEL-DPS-SYD would be 670.

These are based off the old tables. The new table is 40 SCs for SYD-MEL and 80 SCs for DPS to/from SYD or MEL.
