Have you tried this method and did it work for you? I thought that you don't need credit history if migrating your card from Aus? Did you find a way to set up a bank account remotely?

Hello, I'll be relocating to the US soon, has anyone used the overseas Amex transfer service? I have some questions Thanks

Between RP and similar platforms i've done $1.2m since joining, can't see myself continuing to use any of these platforms post deval. If Amex devalued the points cause "fees are lower" then they should lower their fees as well, 1.2% or less is where it should be

There are better ways to deal with this, and the responsibility should be with the parents. If the baby cries during the flight, the parents should pay extra and the money should be disbursed to the other passengers. Something like $200-$300 per passenger. If you can afford J for your kid you...

Charcoal Grill on the Hill, Kew (Melbourne) is my go to spot. All meals I had there were excellent and they have a very impressive wine list

Amex to Martiott transfer is now live but there is no "Transfer Now" option. Apparently will be back live tomorrow

Accoring to Point Hacks, Amex announced the new transfer rate and it is TERRIBLE From 2:1, it's going to be 3:2 How the merger of SPG and Marriott Rewards will affect you - Point Hacks Did anyone get an email or similar? So under the old program, a hotel that was 20,000 SPG (or 40,000 Amex)...

Any idea on how MR will convert to Marriott?

I will be interested to know how Amex to SPG conversion rates will change?

Thanks, Do you know if they same applies if flying from say Osaka - Haneda (JL) then NRT - MEL (also JL)?

Hey everyone, Suppose I want to fly SYD-AUH (Etihad) and from there go by land to DXB and catch a Royal Jordanian flight to Amman, do you think this will be still considered one award on AA? I've done SYD-AUH-AMM in the past with EY / RJ, but not sure if the land segment is allowed? Thanks!

Lots planned for 2018! 1. Bali with Jetstar for 10 days in January (boring flight but staying at my favourite SPG property in Bali) 2. Japan for 2.5 weeks (taking advantage of the Marriott Holiday Packages, enough for 2 business class return on JAL Dreamliner and one week at the RC Tokyo) 3...

Best Amex card on offer at the moment Some of the benefits include: - Various insurance - 2 Gateway points per dollar spent on almost everything - $400 travel credit per annum (offset the $395 card fee) - Bunch of other stuff as mentioned above I've been using this card for just over a year...

Amex Explorer gives you 2 PPD on everything, if you pair it with the Centurion and merge programs you will earn 2 Ascent Premium points everywhere. "Earn 2 Membership Rewards points6 per $1 spent on all purchases except government bodies in Australia where you will earn 0.5 points per $1 spent"

Mr Fitz Can you confirm the points earn you said at the start and which program (Ascent Premium I am guessing) the Centurion gives you? If its 1PPD on most places, it looks like the Explorer earn rate is better? I spoke to Amex today and was told by the CSR I should qualify soon...

This card changed my points strategy. No longer 110,000 Gateway points, but 80,000 (subject to meeting spend conditions) with a referral link is also pretty good. Highlights below. Apply here using my referral to get 80,000 points (and i'll get 20,000). http://amex.com.au/refer/GC6YQ...

Thanks. I waited for the Bpay to clear before making the payment. My limit had $6.5k disappear and the 10k was noted as received (amount due is down by 10k) but my available credit didn't increase. they pretty much credit-squeezed me - took the money but didn't let me use it. Ironically, I...

Centurion holders - I have a question My Explorer limit is $40k, in the last two months i've started putting my business expenses through the card and i've been doing circa $100k each month. I always pay down my card before using it, so I never go over limit or to positive credit. Yesterday, I...

Transferred 24 December, points posted overnight.

Had my card in credit a number of times (different amounts, usually a few k's if I have a large bill to pay) - never had any issues. EDIT Just read over the other post - its from 2011 and apparently due to money laundering concerns? Not sure if its still relevant
