    Changing Addresses on BAEC

    Does anyone have any experiences with changing addresses on BAEC? I know you can change countries every 6 months but is there anything I need to be aware of? I'm having a hard time using the GUFs.

    TRS on goods purchased online but shipped from OS?

    After a bit more research, seems like the answer is no because the seller is not Amazon AU but rather Amazon EU/Germany. Despite the tax invoice being valid, Amazon Au is collecting GST on behalf of Amazon EU/Germany. Found a bit more on this here: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/96rxpr59

    TRS on goods purchased online but shipped from OS?

    Thanks. The only clause I'm aware of is the following as per the TRS site: I'm just not sure whether I would fall in under the 1st one or 2nd one. More concerning is the following at the top: 1714889960 This was a change in 2018 (IIRC) where goods imported by an Australian merchant <$1000...

    TRS on goods purchased online but shipped from OS?

    Hi All, Has anyone ever purchased anything where the Merchant is registered in Australia but the item is shipped from overseas? Tax Invoice and ABN is provided and GST is listed on the invoice. At the bottom the invoice says the following:

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    How deeply I can relate to this. Are most of your cards with C1? I'm guessing you'll need to give them a new phone number...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    ^I'm assuming your quotes have bugged out. Tbh anything could be difficult. My first card was chase and it was a PITA to get approved but it happened. Cards with an elevated offer also usually are a bit more lax from what I've heard as well. You can always try and if unsuccessful, go back to amex.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Indeed. If anything, only useful if paired something else like an explorer or a platinum card. The essentials be a dining card only. I wonder if the explorer will also be revamped. This is in the context of non churners obvs.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    FYI - CSP has an 80K offer which is probably better than Aeroplan? I was also thinking that maybe you should just try and apply with Chase and see how you go? Edit...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I think so but I'll let others chime in as well. In case you were thinking about applying for Biz cards, they aren't reported so they wouldn't link to your ITIN.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    You could try but there are no tricks or tips with applying with Chase. Your main issue will be linking your ITIN with your credit history. If you've never applied for a card with it then it most likely isn't associated. Even getting Amex to add it does not mean it will be reported. The sure...

    Received a survey from BAEC regarding GGL 😂 Definitely ad odds with QF's previous one.

    Yep I have. I'm not sure Hertz will know what to do. Edit: I just read on reddit that it can take up to 10 days apparently YMMV.

    Article: Is Airline Status Worthwhile If Flying Business Class?

    I currently hold P1 but will soft land to WP. I also have GGL with BA (equiv of QF P1). My previous strategy was to hold QF WP + AS MVP Gold (OWS) for redemptions with AS but once I hit QF LTG, I switched strategies to earn LTOWE with BA. Rather than try to earning two statuses I would try to...

    Article: Is Airline Status Worthwhile If Flying Business Class?

    Indeed. You can pay for a seat and get priority boarding with minimal extra cost. I'm actually have LTG with QF already but I'm currently chasing after BA LTG (LTOWE) and it seems/feels a bit silly given the marginal differences. I may be better off just obtaining WP year on year at a lower cost.

    Article: Is Airline Status Worthwhile If Flying Business Class?

    I wanted to revive this and get everyone's thoughts on this a year a bit down the road. With the landscape changing, I'm finding myself enjoying status runs less and less. Perhaps I'm getting to a stage where I value my time more rather than just flying around. Whilst I would probably still...
