    Very ordinary treatment by J CSM

    Good morning all AFFers! Had a disappointing experience on my final QF flight to attain WP last night. Was travelling MEL-CBR with my wife and two toddlers.

The website wasn't working for me (it showed rooms as available, but when attempting to book, it wouldn't allow it), so I rang the hotline and spoke to some lady from Accor bookings...

    Citibank rewards <> FF points

    Hi guys, long time no post. My fiance applied for the Citibank Gold no-fee card about 18-24 months ago and has been using it, more or less, with not much trouble - except for when she needs to actually call them. They are the most condescending, fake politeness customer care people around...
