    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I too received a similar email from the SST last year, having stopped flying QF due to their indifferent service on multiple sectors thru Singapore flying First as a P1. They did respond to my reply, mostly with excuses and not an apology is my recollection. I did subsequently fly QF to LHR in...

    Partner gold + partner plat

    Yes, the person gifted Gold retains it, the P1 Platinum offer is a separate offer/reward...so you get to make 2 people happy. I'm not aware of an age restriction for gifting of status, but I don't think they are allowed into lounges without an adult due to alcohol licensing laws...but happy to...

    Partner gold + partner plat

    They do not need to be the same person, in fact that would be a waste of gifting of Gold. Until recently P1 gift of Platinum was only to spouse/partner but this has now been relaxed.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I've just opened last years gift and letter, and both the letter itself and the address label also have codes, mine was W1L2, so codes are not new to this year after all. I surmise the Ln is just to delineate the letter (different wording - original/new/whatever P1 status) and it is noted on...

    I can confirm I received the L3 headphones, and it is NOT my first year a P1.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I'd like to see some of that service when things go pear-shaped, but on my trip last month as a P1 in Business, the flight from LHR to CDG was cancelled by BA, it was ticketed under QF as a leg after QF1. BA emailed me of the cancellation which I received once I landed in LHR and had...

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    Glad you finally got looked after, but I couldn't be bothered, I'll write management an email during the week though highlighting the poor F/P1 experience.

    QF1/2 F pax experience through SIN

    I too am in the SIN lounge, I am a P1 traveling in First and I've received no special treatment at all, I'm sitting with the plebs...no First Host treatment offered, and I wondered about the seats with the Reserved signs so now I know. QF seem to be downgrading the F experience, when checking...

    Accor Plus renewal - any deals?

    an update, I've not heard from Accor Plus and my login is rejected due to my membership (lack of) but the good news is I can now login to AccorHotels once again and see my points and bookings are still there.

    Accor Plus renewal - any deals?

    I just tried to login to my AccorPlus account, and my AccorHotels account, and login was rejected on both. I haven't had a phone call from Accor to renew my AccorPlus as yet but expiry date is 31-Dec so it should still be valid today. I had over Accor 50k points in my account...not happy Jan.

    AA arrivals lounge at LHR for QF F passenger

    I used the AA Arrivals Lounge in T3 in October (having flown in on QF in P class). The updated lounge is certainly an improvement on the old, and a shower after 24hrs on a plane is very refreshing. On previous occasions I've attempted to use Chauffeur Drive and the AA Arrivals Lounge, much to...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Happy Trails is showing a location of Up Country Thailand, if that is a home address then maybe QF don't send gifts offshore...or maybe they do and Sendle are still trying to deliver the 2015 gift :-)

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    An update on Fastway and my P1 gift, their tracking site is still showing the parcel as being in their depot awaiting my instruction for re-delivery. I can confirm their site is wrong, they actually delivered it yesterday…five business days after I paid for the redirection. I too received the...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Adding to the complaints about Sendle, in my case, Sendle used Fastway Couriers to deliver my gift on Tuesday, no one was home but they left a card, so I could request redelivery or redirection. I chose redirection to my work address 6kms away, and Fastway charged me $5.50 for that redirection...

    Roomba, Dysons, Thermomix and other household appliances

    yep, what whatmeworry says is indeed the danger, CO (carbon monoxide) is a silent killer, smoke alarms are not set off by CO. You can get CO monitors from the hardware store but I wouldn't risk it indoors even with a CO monitor. Also, whilst the charcoal may not be smoking (and Japanese...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Platinum Card Benefits, Offers & Discussion

    sounds like they got it right for you, another day has passed and my Accor Hotels account still shows no status whatsoever (should be platinum given the 120+ nights in the last year), nor does it show the ~50,000 points that were in my account. And I can't login to the Accor Plus site, just...

    Credit Card Offers Amex Platinum Card Benefits, Offers & Discussion

    I thought I'd replied to this last night, but it doesn't appear to have saved to the site. I got a call from Accor Plus yesterday, my membership apparently expired (has been free for at least a couple of years) and the current offer was $259 and retention of Accor Platinum status. I took up the...
