    Credit Card Offers Refreshed Amex Velocity Platinum Card Benefits & Offers

    Current holder of this plat Amex. Not happy with the refresh. Have status with VA for now which'll lapse in 2 years. The annual VA lounge perk useless as have family. It only includes card holder, no guests. The loss of Centurion lounge for our annual o/s trip is a kick in the guts & all but...

    Virgin changing its fare structure

    cheap biz fares & now throwing out lounge yearly access with AMEX Plat yet making it more difficult to keep status, what VA playing at? All these cheap fare are to keep status holders to requalify, but then it becomes much tougher from Oct 2025. Really an inconsistent approach IMO. The...

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    Mrs Moo received $100 over 2 weeks for 4,500 plus $50 online order this week for 1,000. Will knock over. No offers for me the big cow.

    Haha your kidding, if the National Anti Corruption Commission been given CL well what hope do we have? It's all over. Something's gotta change, seriously. They can meet at the pub or over a barbie.

    New Amex statement credits

    Got it too, but a bar little too high for me. Could get close if planned it, but nah pass.

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    I don't see why some say I'll drain my velocity points now that I can't retain whatever status I have under the changes. Heard this theory a few times in this thread. I have ~800k velocity points, have no intention using them for sake of using them as my status will stop in time Plan to use in...

    Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

    They should've just included the GF Tally in the recent app update. Simple. Taken a few extra days before releasing the app to get this all complete. Simple, or did I say that already?

    Qantas DSC October 2024 Offer - book by 31/10/24 & fly 1/11/24-19/10/25

    I doubt QF would even look at a Status match from me as received one during covid times. I will however cancel another VA flight I have & take this QF DSC offer to claim a 100SC that'll be carried over into 2026 as PC+ perk when my VA WP drops to Gold. To leave my options open to qualify for...

    Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

    remembering the 4 years expected time line to go, does that incorporate the less SC you'll earn post 2nd April 2025 bookings? Maybe 6 years?

    Bottom right hand corner. A black talking bubble symbol. Rather small but can't miss it. Maybe being o/s it's not there. Website , not sure if on the app.

    Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

    Only 2 boosters, zilch Nada anything else. Maybe all the fake sales in recent report has put a strain on the marketing budget.

    Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

    Certainly seems they have not thought this through as well as could have. They did say they've listened to their customers, just not sure many requested a dynamic SC devaluation system. I'd say virgin is better than Jetstar if Jetstar were stand alone. But there not so you could well be...

    Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

    No does NOT include DSC/TSC offers. For the TSC offer: The ol' fav trip; MEL-OOL-MEL Below from Velocity y'day: (standard SC rate) But on my activity statement on Velocity website it's as below (separate line for TSC) The total given me by Velocity in a single total number matches the total...

    Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

    Received my activity statement. It's my total only (no pooling), without DSC & the one TSC. Although I have a few transactions where SCs listed are above the standard table amount. Have to think how / why that's the case. Still only halfway so I won't get there with the changes.

    Would be mildly amusing to hear the below from Nich Rohrlach just reworded as it was for an opening paragraph rather missing the nastie bits. "We have listened to feedback that our members want to be better recognised for flying regularly with Virgin Australia and to be able to fly domestically...

    Life Time Gold - The [Realistic] Holy Grail

    LTG is more than the sweet spot, it's the ONLY spot. From what I've read, only ones getting to LTP are ones who benefitted from different Status Credit circumstances long ago on international routes or who spend more time in the air than their living room.

    Qatar Airways to acquire 25% of Virgin Australia

    These are the same proposed VA services to Doha that will receive only 50% Status Credits as previously. Bringing on new services that get next to nothing in terms of SC...way to go VA management, when your on a roll.

    Well put @elanshin Couldn't agree more @PERLHR re family pooling, VA want to be different...now they sure are different, in an uglier way IMO. Should've just increased the total SCs required to attain / maintain, closer to QF totals. Still introduced Platinum+ Still introduced Forever Gold

    Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

    The live chat informed me earlier today it'll take 24-48 hours. (they never responded to my email 3 days ago) I said isn't it click of a few buttons etc Just status credits. I was told they need to calculate it. So no idea WTF is going on, I may just get a figure of total SCs instead of full...
