    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I've never heard of anyone applying with an AU Biz Amex. Only personal cards. This sounds like why you're being flagged consistently.

    The definitive thread on Qantas IT gripes.

    App sent me to the same place. Edit: Got through and it seems like the system was stuck due to being checked-in online for the cancelled flight. shrugs

    The definitive thread on Qantas IT gripes.

    Yeah... wanted to avoid calling but seems inevitable. All these self-serve functions seem to barely work. The previous one where it was embedded into MMB seemed to work but now the shift to a specific re-acomm site seems to have made the process worse. On the phone and been waiting as a P1 for...

    The definitive thread on Qantas IT gripes.

    Any ideas how one accept an replacement flight when the re-acommdation site won't work? Entering my PNR and surname doesn't lead to anywhere.

    I found the link: https://benefitsglobal.americanexpress.com/benefits/status?Face=en_AU Looks like PP has been removed from the page. Instead you need to call.

    Changing Addresses on BAEC

    Does anyone have any experiences with changing addresses on BAEC? I know you can change countries every 6 months but is there anything I need to be aware of? I'm having a hard time using the GUFs.

    TRS on goods purchased online but shipped from OS?

    After a bit more research, seems like the answer is no because the seller is not Amazon AU but rather Amazon EU/Germany. Despite the tax invoice being valid, Amazon Au is collecting GST on behalf of Amazon EU/Germany. Found a bit more on this here: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/96rxpr59

    TRS on goods purchased online but shipped from OS?

    Thanks. The only clause I'm aware of is the following as per the TRS site: I'm just not sure whether I would fall in under the 1st one or 2nd one. More concerning is the following at the top: 1714889960 This was a change in 2018 (IIRC) where goods imported by an Australian merchant <$1000...

    TRS on goods purchased online but shipped from OS?

    Hi All, Has anyone ever purchased anything where the Merchant is registered in Australia but the item is shipped from overseas? Tax Invoice and ABN is provided and GST is listed on the invoice. At the bottom the invoice says the following:

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    How deeply I can relate to this. Are most of your cards with C1? I'm guessing you'll need to give them a new phone number...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    ^I'm assuming your quotes have bugged out. Tbh anything could be difficult. My first card was chase and it was a PITA to get approved but it happened. Cards with an elevated offer also usually are a bit more lax from what I've heard as well. You can always try and if unsuccessful, go back to amex.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    Indeed. If anything, only useful if paired something else like an explorer or a platinum card. The essentials be a dining card only. I wonder if the explorer will also be revamped. This is in the context of non churners obvs.

    Fascinating product. Essentially mimicking US cards offerings.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    FYI - CSP has an 80K offer which is probably better than Aeroplan? I was also thinking that maybe you should just try and apply with Chase and see how you go? Edit...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I think so but I'll let others chime in as well. In case you were thinking about applying for Biz cards, they aren't reported so they wouldn't link to your ITIN.

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    You could try but there are no tricks or tips with applying with Chase. Your main issue will be linking your ITIN with your credit history. If you've never applied for a card with it then it most likely isn't associated. Even getting Amex to add it does not mean it will be reported. The sure...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Received a survey from BAEC regarding GGL 😂 Definitely ad odds with QF's previous one.
