    Qantas Group Reducing services by effectively grounding 18 Aircraft due to Coronavirus

    Yeah, that’s tricky! They called me back after 3 hours. I accepted the proposed downgrade & they processed the $ & points difference refund while I was on the call. There was nothing in the original email or booking change about a refund- had that have been more complete, it would have saved...

    Qantas Group Reducing services by effectively grounding 18 Aircraft due to Coronavirus

    It came up as an option as soon as the recording mentioned a 2hr+ wait time. I called 131313 and entered my FF number- no doubt my lack of status sent me to the back of the queue! I can see that I can accept the change online (accepting the downgrade is the only feasible option with our...

    Qantas Group Reducing services by effectively grounding 18 Aircraft due to Coronavirus

    appreciate this sounds petty considering people have jobs at risk.... but this morning we’ve been downgraded to business from first on QF35 in April due to the A380 being subbed out. Will we get the points / tax difference back?

    Melbourne, Brisbane Virgin Lounges Always Overcrowded

    In Melbourne, the Virgin & Qantas lounges are in different terminals- with the international terminal in between- how early is he getting to the airport to do this?? The Brisbane lounge was incredibly overcrowded on the day of the Melbourne wind storm, but other than that I’ve only experienced...

    Citibank Signature Qantas 150,000 points

    I’m going to guess (cause I haven’t read how that fits into the T&Cs...which is why relying on people on the interwebs is never a fab plan!) that because your quote refers to eligible transaction it refers to whether the spend earns points, not counting towards the $5k min spend. Point 1 refers...

    Citibank Signature Qantas 150,000 points

    Who said clear & simple? My ‘clear & simple’ advice was to rely upon the written T&Cs ;-) BTW, did post #120 have actually have a problem with the min spend, or just had a confusing call with the call center & was worried? I can’t tell.

    Citibank Signature Qantas 150,000 points

    Don’t worry about how other banks define their minimum spend, check the fine print for this offer. Using the link in the first post, it’s the first point under Important Information. If a call centre gives you incorrect advice, or the provider doesn’t offer their T&C’s I’d be requesting (and...

    Citibank Signature Qantas 150,000 points

    Thanks! I have a ~$5000 bill to put on it as soon as the card arrives, so the minimum spend will be hit super fast Don’t want to jinx myself, but I am also in the never-had-a-problem-with-Citibank camp!

    Citibank Signature Qantas 150,000 points

    Conditionally approved last Wednesday when I applied & confirmed yesterday. I’ll be cancelling as soon as the 100,000 points arrive (8 weeks from minimum spend I think?) I agree with everyone else- I don’t think it’s worth paying the full annual fee next year for an extra 50,000 points.
