Hey all, I received a targeted 15% bonus on credit-card transfers for 25th March - 9th April via e-mail (came with the "we've sliced things up"). I know other members on here received the same email/promo. Has anyone actually received the bonus points? I made transfers from both NAB / ANZ...

Hi all, I had a general enquiry re a balance transfer from an AMEX card. If i was to go ahead and do this, this wouldn't affect any points/point balance nor the card in itself? Im sure it wouldn't - just wanted to confirm prior. Apologies if not the best place for this thread Cheers.
