    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    So I got through via the new card app number (877-239-3491) which was about the 7th number I tried, they took my app number and put me through to GT who verbally confirmed my address and said I was approved and the card is on its way! I asked for a tracking number but she said there wasn't one...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Applied yesterday and got a 'conditionally approved so give us a call' however every number I tried I was met with "the computer system needed to answer your questions is currently not available". Cool, it was Sunday night, I'll try again today. Woke up this morning to the below, not able to...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    After reading a terrifying amount of this thread I'm ready to jump through but just want to make sure I've understood it all. Hilton Aspire Address - MyUS (note Amex tracking #) Verify Identity/Address - Citi AU Statement Phone #- Hushed (TextNow didn't like my VPN) - Do I need this number...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    ADL-DRW - Dinner service The Parmy w/ Sweet Potato Mash was probably the best meal I’ve had on there since Covid. Very delicious, up there with the old Shepherds Pie! Glad to see they’ve swapped back to the Ta-Ku Pinot as well, much better than the Madame Sass I’ve had recently. Also shout out...

    What's the problem - call center service

    I just called (Silver) and was answered straight away, great start. The agent then told me that she had looked in the system and the MCT for D-I in Sydney was in fact 75 minutes despite QF quite publicly highlighting the change to 90 Mins at Syd and Mel airports. At least I didn't have to waste...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    BNE-ADL 12JUN Spanish Chicken with Mash. Quite enjoyed it actually, which is good because I was served last (it went 1A-F then 2F-A), vego option was a Korean fired rice I will say that I don’t love their new Pinot Noir, it’s the Chilean stuff they have in the lounge and it’s not as good as the...

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    SYD-ADL 30DEC Chicken Tagine + Cheese Tortellini A huge improvement over the abysmal Tofu Bowl and average roast Turkey we got on the outbound on Xmas Eve - honestly that resembled what you’d get on the flag carrier of a developing nation. Tagine wasn’t bad but the Tortellini was quite...

    What is Virgin Australia's strategy (post-administration)?

    I understand that some days it might not make sense ex ADL but for example I’m flying next Monday and VA has 8 flights departing between 8:45am and 4:45pm; granted there probably aren’t a lot of people on the flights to SYD/MEL/CBR but I’d hazard a guess and say the people who are flying are...

    What is Virgin Australia's strategy (post-administration)?

    I just found out that from VA that the ADL lounge is closed due to government restrictions… except there aren’t any restrictions that would prevent them opening under Level 1 I think this might be the final straw for me and maybe it’s time to buy a QF Club Membership until I can qualify as Gold...

    Virgin Fare Promise - Gone?

    VA look to have pulled all web pages relating to their fare promise :( I (unsuccessfully) attempted to claim it a few weeks ago and thought I would have another crack but looks like they’ve joined QF and decided in this day and age they don’t need to incentivise people to book direct...
