    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    I had a feeling HUACA could have helped my case But anyway there were the issues of cabin availability for 2x seats and to make matters more challenging, our girl who wasnt even born when the original booking was made (we meant to add her to the booking closer to travel date) will now be 2+ by...

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    Didn't work for us trying to change the EK/QF award booked prior to EK awards "enhancement" from QFF to partner award table, was advised on the phone (and on AFF prior) that the points difference would be charged. That and lack of EK F availability saw us having to unfortunately cancel.

    Long wait for refund for cancelled reward flights Qantas - a common experience?

    7.5 weeks for me since cancelling over the phone and neither points nor taxes refunded yet. waiting a few more days for the magic 8 week number (is it still 8? hope it hasn't blown out to 10-12 weeks) and will be chasing it up to try and make it all in 1 phone call (fingers crossed)

    Qantas to allow free changes, cancellations to Classic Flight Reward bookings to 30 September 2022

    is this time on hold normal or are the weekends not the best time to call? I'm used to waiting a couple of hours, but nearly 6 hours seems like an overkill Edit: jinxed it, disconnected after 6 hrs

    Qantas to allow free changes, cancellations to Classic Flight Reward bookings to 30 September 2022

    Question (and hope I'm in the right topic), we have a combined QF-EK classic award booking made back in 2019 when EK awards were priced same as Qantas (before they were moved to partner award schedule). Departure date is again coming up, if we were to change again will we be charged the points...

    Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

    Those were the days. I'm surprised I managed to keep my account even though a family member got the letter and was doing exactly same number of transactions to the same biller from the same browser window. The only regret is we didn't go hard enough and only kept it to two cards each...

    Haven't seen this before with flybuys, this might actually be an improvement. Hope it's ongoing, not a one off.

    Credit Card Offers Westpac Altitude Platinum Offers: 80,000 Qantas/Velocity Points or 120,000 Altitude Points (expires 30/4/25)

    Keen to apply for this for 75k and no fee first year, my 12m exclusion period lapsed just over a month ago. The only thing that makes me hesitant is that i just opened an equivalent St George within the last 3 months, and they are essentially the same bank. Hope westpac doesn't have silly...

    Car hire Tasmania. Which company?

    Another suggestion: Bargain car rentals - used them 3 times in HBA, good experience each time so far. They have (or used to have) a sizable operation in Tassie, in HBA they are located in the airport terminal compared to other non-majors who are usually a shuttle ride away. And i also had an...

    Credit Card Offers St.George Amplify Qantas Platinum Offers & Discussion

    @get me outta here when i cancelled mine last time a couple of years back, i remember them giving something like 30 days grace period to use the points and after that they are forfeited. Wouldn't hurt to ask them or look for t&c's, especially if having a large balance.

    Credit Card Offers St.George Amplify Qantas Platinum Offers & Discussion

    Seems like this offer got upsized to 70k QFF point at the expense of non-discounted annual fee ($99), which still looks quite reasonable. Amplify Platinum Westpac has an even better one with no annual fee, but i'm still sitting out their exclusion period. I might bite the bullet and apply for...

    Coles gift card offers

    yep, browsed that thread, also seen reports that it's a hit and miss whether they apply the limit or not, either way i could use them for two separate items above 500 @exceladdict apparently it is in the t&c's

    Woolworths gift card thread

    according to the fine print at the bottom of the page, the offer applies to "all denominations of Ultimate xyz gift cards excluding variable load" but answering your question directly, no i haven't tried myself yet. have my eyes set on a bunch of Ultimate Home as they can be also used at TGG...
