2% international fee reading through again!!!! could be attractive - may be for forex through third party. 1 ppd certainly for domestic transfers with no fee

If there is no fee -(which is what I think it is reading through T&A's) - we'll earn 1 ppd. Game changer???? for payments that we can make for payments that have a BSB and Account number.......or not?

Thats very interesting indeed. May be we see some real enhancements in an alternative that they could introduce or nothing at all.

I have done same day 3J redemptions from Mel to Sin. Booked in the morning and flew Sq218 when we had a family emergency overseas. I have kept my loyalty ever since with Krisflyer

Pretty disappointing with this merger. Always had upgrades and breakfast with SPG. Only SPG gold thereby now Mariott Gold. Recently stayed redemption 5 nights at Westin Osaka (no room upgrades and no breakfast) and then at Marriott Tang Plaza (nothing again). On the other hand - similar 5...

Thanks Coriander. Read what Coriander had to say - opened the chat window and typed a similar request. Amex member since the past 3 years with similar spend (or a tad bit more) to coriander. A couple of verification questions later came the offer of doubling points on 15th Apr. Had a large...

Can you please PM me this option. Cheers

Similar to above, I have been trying to link them up and guess had tried about 6 times so far to no avail. Reading through the forum, thought will give another push and rang on the weekend afterhours. The lovely lady did not blink an eyelid and linked the accounts. Had close to 600K points on...

Same nada....he also said I received 35K last year and therefore no retention bonus this year. Close to half a mil spend on explorer if people are after datapoints

Its not the transfer between accounts but the earn that affects me. The Charge has a max of 300K point earn per year - which is not a hard yard to cross. The free reserve with the travel credit may swing it in favour, assuming the earn from reserve does not contribute to the 300K point limit...

Great... I was not aware of that. Thanks. Now I just need to make my mind up about paying that huge Annual Fee!!!

Nope I have the vanilla Explorer and Plat Edge. The Plat charge card does not make sense for me due to its points cap

Just a thread appreciating the lovely Krisflyer program. Managed to score 3X saver J redemption Melb-HND during the peak season (Apr return). I have heaps of miles in Velocity, United and Qantas. None of them had availability and Krisflyer came to the rescue. I guess we all strive to achieve...

Have moved significant spend on Explorer since Citi devalued its prestige. Say around half a mil. Was asked for Centurion straight away and said the invite was mailed out!!! - but I declined anyway. Apparently the annual fee is due when they issue the card and not the date we made the...

Same here albyd. Rung them and no bonus points offered on explorer. Asked whether interested in Centurion - said no. I think I got 25K last year (around that I think) as retention and the agent said there is nothing in the system for him to offer anything.

Is that flying UL ex CMB - you mean. I have to fly into BLR many times, besides the UL short leg between BLR-CMB frequently gets cancelled for one reasons or the other. The story with CMB airport is another matter altogether.

Ex BLR or any City in India return on Malaysia J for $2100 or less now. A great deal I should Say

The unlimited entry with priority pass is itself a winner in this case - for people who travel heaps in SE Asia.

Second MattG post - UL J is way cheaper and heaps of SC's crediting to QF. Might as well recommend booking J from BLR -MEL. Had this flight earlier this year and loading is lot less (both in J and Y), aircraft is nice and service is impeccable

Explorer and just applied for an edge to leverage the Ascent point advantage. For Visa spend - fortunately using the Westpac Visa until that gets canned.
