    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    I just picked up some the Jacquart Champagne as I've enjoyed it before (plus the great price obviously too). Interestingly, the label on the back has a Qantas logo which I believe isn't usually the case with anything purchased through Epicure. Given it's served in Qantas business, I wonder if...

    Platinum AMEX Renewal during covid-19

    Renewal is coming up at the end of Dec. Rang yesterday and was put through to retention who offered 30K points. Not sure if I should take it, or try again closer to - it's obviously better than nothing but not at some of the higher amounts referenced in this thread.

    So, about this "wider acceptance" thing...

    I hope your dog gets better soon, that's not nice to have to deal with.

    6 * Pommery Brut Royal Champagne NV $22.50 / bottle QF wines

    Agreed, Fastway are a nightmare! When I order from Nicks I request Aus Post only for deliveries. I always check if companies use Aus Post or courier and won't deal with a courier company - especially Fastway!

    Bankwest Qantas World MC 90k bonus, $6k spend in 3 months, $135 first year annual fee, exp 31 August 2019

    Does anyone know if the $6k spend is actually required in three calendar months from approval/activation or three billing cycles? Sorry, I couldn't seem to find a definite answer and my first billing cycle only ran for a few days so I'm a bit cautious.

    Free Qantas Wines promo discount codes.

    Thanks for the heads up about the repeat use of the code, very handy and used three times now! Despite being a premium member, they've been charging me postage on my last two orders which is really frustrating. Their 'outstanding' customer service weren't able to explain it and he wasn't even...

    Qantas Wine latest offering

    Likewise had the joy of having to speak to their offshore call centre. Probably the most frustrating thing, as others have mentioned, is the poor call quality - I could hardly hear them. Also got sent a follow up feedback survey and gladly gave this feedback.

    Auckland QF J lounge is disgustingly filthy, worn out, and with s*^t food. Get it remodelled now Qantas!

    Eeek - looks pretty grubby, the Qantas lounges really are hit and miss! Haven't been in Auckland for many years but have enjoyed the Emirates lounge a couple of times which was great at the time.
