    Supplementary Cards - general overview.

    The current promo (May 2017) doesn't apply to the Qantas Amex Discovery card. (I called and asked.)

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    Whereas my offer was simply for a free packet. Again.

    Coles gift card offers

    No, there's a $5 fee on top of the value of the card. ie; a $50 one will cost you $55, and a $100 one will cost you $105. Not worth paying when there's no bonus on offer, but worth doing when there is. Unlike the Only 1 Visa gift cards, the Coles Gift Mastercards have a PIN, so they're less of...

    Woolworths gift card thread

    Mrs 2905 and I stayed at that hotel (Mercure, Charlestown) for one night recently. When I booked the room I didn't book breakfast, as $25 each (for the full option) seemed a bit steep to me too. When we checked in, we were offered full breakfast for $16 each, if we requested it before 9pm. Now...

    Virgin Australia Delays/Cancellations

    What's with VA279 (MEL-CBR) today? Did they not like our weather, and decided to go back to MEL instead?

    Woolworths gift card thread

    I haven't started the new job yet (maybe Monday week), so I have fairly high availability at the moment. Just send me an e-mail if I don't appear to be on AFF at the time.

    Don't even need to copy and paste since a recent update; just select the hyperlink in the e-mail and there's an automagic option to add it to the Woolworths Money app for you. :) Agreed. For in-store use, it's the 10-digit version that you enter, not the "150 character" version. And 4-digit...

    QF Cash - Earn Rates Changing from 01 July 2017

    My assumption is that it's due to the RBA reforms to credit card interchange rates.

    Shop to Fly Faster - Transfer Flybuys to Velocity

    Anyone else still waiting for their bonus points (100 VFF per 2000 FB) from the late January promo? The fine print at the time said, "Members should allow up to 4 weeks after 31 January 2017 for the bonus Points to be allocated to their Velocity Frequent Flyer account." Well, it's been four...

    CBR: Change in runway direction usage?

    For as long as I've bothered to take notice (which was late 2010), flights in and out of Canberra have almost always approached from the south and taken off to the north. On the odd occasion when it's been the opposite case it appears to me to have been weather related usually. However, over the...

    Hi from Canberra

    Hi Jay, From a fellow Canberran, welcome to AFF. From time to time, some of us get together at the Kingston Hotel for dinner and a chat. You can cook your own steak, like get me outta here likes to do, or you can do as I prefer, and outsource the cooking to the chefs. Keep an eye out for...

    Re: ANZ QFF/Rewards card earn rates enhanced™ Not as I read it. New applicants from today get the new points regime. Existing cardholders stay on the old points regime until 5/8/17.

    New Amex statement credits

    Went to BP at Fyshwick this morning with a view to putting another $40 worth of U91 in Mrs 2905's car, only to find that they no longer sell it, since replacing their pumps recently. They only sell ethanol-tainted fuel and U98 now (and diesel and LPG, but they're no good to me at all). After...

    New Amex statement credits

    We have a house full of fur kids and regularly shop at Best Friend Pets anyway, so that one was a no-brainer for me. I bought five Amex cards worth of BFP gift cards earlier this week, then used them later in the week when they ran one of their semi-regular 20% off store-wide promos. :) My only...

    Woolworths gift card thread

    The Woolworths Money app is a good way to manage your Wish eGift cards, if you're not already doing so. Among other useful things, the Woolworths app (a separate app to the WW Money app) has an option to show your Rewards card. :)

    And here are some of us actually going from store to store, when all we needed to do was make a 'phone call? :rolleyes: "Customer" or friend / relative, I wonder?
