    Macquarie changing earn rate on Platinum Card

    Just got an email from Macquarie advising of points earn change from 15 March 2018. 1 QFF point per dollar up to $1,000 (previously $2,500) per month, then 0.5 QFF points after that. Will now re-evaluate my options. I suspect they're limited anyway.

    Points and SC for flights not flown

    I was under the impression that points and SC are given only for segments actually flown? Recently I failed to show for two segments (being the entire booking), but the points and SC still posted. I'm certainly not complaining, given it was a .br booking. Has this happened to anyone else?
