Sure, but the provided additional documents match the information given in the initial application, which has now been rejected and they can't give any explanation. (FWIW it was literally just payslips that they asked for.)
Anyone else been told they are conditionally approved pending provision of payslips/etc and completing ID verification at local branch, only to then be told the application is unsuccessful once both of those tasks are completed?
Seems a bit disingenuous at best.
Same, my wife had a full water bottle when leaving Doha (non-transit) about 18 months ago, showed it to security and got a disinterested shrug. (We were flying J which I think had different security if that matters.)
I have a bunch of new offers on my Plat this morning - some similar to last week's hotel deals, some new ones.
Eg:
United $1k/$200
Avis $250/$50
Hilton/Marriott $400/$80
Also 5x Amex bonus points up to 2,500 points
Anyone got any tips for an easy/easier flight offset? My review date is 30 June and the only flights I have booked at the moment are international for 3pax so would cost ~25k pts to offset.
Don't suppose the offset a random flight thing still works (did it ever)?
But there doesn't seem to be any mention of it on the HSBC page once you click through from AC. Not sure if there was before?
Given they (HSBC) are the ones actually providing the financial product, I am a bit concerned, as was planning on applying in the next week or so.
I am looking at something similar, but from reading this thread I believe if you go through AC/Aeroplan (and keep the card open and pay annual fee again next year) you get 50K/*G status to the end of the calendar year in which your status expires - so should be end of 2025?
Anyone who did this, is your Hertz account actually showing the new status yet? I did it more than 72 hours ago and status hasn't changed from normal 5 star.
Damn I was probably lucky I didn't get arrested in the US about 18 months ago!
I returned a Hertz car (on time) to a hotel/convention centre parking lot in Orlando where they had a rental counter and did a key drop as counter was closed that day before flying up to DC. Then noticed the next...
UA also flys SYD<->IAH, but it is seasonal and finishes in late March so you may be able to just catch it there? Gets you closer to the east coast and a ~2.5hr flight in Y is a lot better than a ~5hr one IMHO if it comes to that.
