Great. I believe so too based on what I've read on here. Although I've been notorious for never receiving a retention offer. Ironic as I called this morning but hung up as I had to do something. I was calling to say I want to cancel and if there was a retention bonus. I don't think I can make...

I'd actually have to check. More luxury this year though. Intl travel, fine hotels & resorts, fashion/jewellery, new car etc. A good guess would be $200-250k. OK that's good to know. She was fairly confident but I just wanted to here it as a guarantee. Did you get the $5k waived? I didn't...

Just received a call from an AMEX representative. Asking if I'd heard of Centurion. Apparently sending through an application today. Went through all the benefits of it vs. PC. I did ask about what happens to the Platinum Reserve card, as I wish to keep that due to no longer being offered with...

Yes, but you won't be contacted unless successful from my experience

Funny you say, I rang up yesterday and youre spot on. They stated they can only transfer if it's in your name. Mods can close this thread 🤣

We were at Hilton Denarau from the 2/1/22-8/1/22. I can confirm there is NO way they have any grip on what's unfolding (unknowingly to guests) at their resort. We had a great time there, but my word, I was exceptionally cautious around their staff and ESPECIALLY the check-in lobby. Most of...

Nice work! I can tell you, I've never arrived for a Intl Flight 4 hours early (pre-Covid). First trip was Fiji last week. Got there at 4am (8:00am flight). Fiji changed the rules from 72 hours to 48 hours PCR test. I had a 72 hour one. Had to line up and anxiously await the 6am opening of the...

I'd be looking for a new travel agent... IMO. I thought I was being harsh but seems I'm not the only one thinking that there's just not enough room for delay

Nice! Similar experience. I rang up to add the card to our break free package and thought best to ask "do I still get the bonus points". It was a simple no... followed by a "wait until they post" and call back to have it added to have the AF refunded. Did so, without incident.

Most people on this forum report getting the Plat Charge and still get the bonus points even though they hold a current AMEX product. Obviously, this is at your own risk whether you get lucky like the majority or if they've cottoned on to it.

If, after speaking to the Plat team, you get the same result. The silver lining is, most people who apply for the Plat Charge get the bonus points anyway, even if they have held an AMEX product that excludes them from such bonuses for 18 months (as per standard T&C's). However, I'm unsure...

Hotham? 😂

Spot on 👍 Marriott Resort Momi Bay

Great photos everyone. How about this one; first overseas trip since '19! Hopefully an easy one. The destination is being advertised everywhere 😂

Update: I realised when making the booking I didnt use my KF FF number in my booking. I've done this now but it's a J return so will be unable to test/verify. I have a feeling that would of had a strong connection to the "computer says no" after entering my KF FF number into their system 🤦‍♂️

No nothing received and didn't hear back. An AFF private messaged me with similar spend and he received an invite. I can't recall if he requested though. The amount of travel we have booked this year will increase our spend so who knows. But I'm not as fussed anymore 🤣. Think it was out of...

Nice! Ok I'll report back if I do try that:).

I Interesting! Tbh I wouldn't mind doing it in one go but it doesn't read that it works that way? Edit: Sorry read it as you saying other Amex members not offers 🤣.

You're spot on. Keeps our Aesop topped up Year round with a good discount code/sale 👍. Although face masks aren't going away for the foreseeable future 🤣

I agree with both of you. Although thankfully I wasn't made to go and queue again. It was more so a question of how to avoid the embarrassment of having to go queue again. I'm not there to make life hard for them 🤣. When there's an advertised benefit, and you go to use it in good faith you meet...
