Why so? For many people they may not fly regularly with qantas. My last activity with them was 9 months ago. If the data in the email header is 'close enough' that's enough to get irregular fliers reading the [scam] emails. But there is certainly a window of opportunity. I guess the best this...

Here is an example of how communications have to change. The emails we've received from qantas all now include a header with information which implies the email is authentically from Qantas. QFF, Points, SC, level. That used to be reliable until all of the information in the header has now been...

As a data point. My F-I-L received emails to say his account was included in the breech. It has been 12 years since he flew anywhere with Qantas. I book his tickets etc and haven't had any contact with them or even bothered with online access to his QFF account. BTW, now would be a perfect time...

Let's unpack the frivolous wording of the email. What was accessed was information that is impossible for me to change like my Name, my date of birth and difficult my phone number which has all those security codes getting sent to it. And somehow it's ok because they were LUCKY the hackers...

If you want to lock your credit report then you can do so Experian Credit Report Request This form can also pass the ban information onto other credit reporting agencies. I generally keep mine at lock status. My concern with these data breeches is that it just adds more and more information to...

after correspondence with the SQ team they say to take it up at checkin. fingers crossed.

SQ customer service replied and said they cannot do it. :( and to take it up at the time of check-in. (and we know how that urns out) I think I will try again in a month or so and if no luck, just short check to SIN.

I had some time tonight to pose this to ChatGPT which took quite a few iterations to eventually produce this. I will call SQ and see if they can actually do it.

Had you already checked in when you did the change?

We are fortunate to have an upcoming SQ RTW J itinerary that will get me to VA Gold before the rules change. The booking is directly with SQ via the app. The first two sectors occur in September of which I need accrue 377 SC into VA. My calculations show if I credit the SQ flights to VA I will...

When I did this they also only issued boarding pass SYD-SIN with a check-in required in SIN the following flight

might be time to visit Energy Made Easy and work out how much these points will cost along the way. In Qld, Red Qantas plan is about about $320/annum more than the current lowest Ampol.

I feel that that level of spending control has gone too far towards the loyalty schemes. Once you remove the idea of earning points from a decision then you are much more likely to choose an alternate solution. For instance Red Energy was giving me points per year but those 2,000 'free' points...

Yep, similar happened to me in Japan where I made an online USD purchase on my card and the USD were sourced out of my yen. Just clarifying this for readers, the issue is that the funds being used have been converted (with fees) twice in order to make the purchase. Enjoy Zurich, one of my...

For this type of issue the airlines first split the booking into two bookings. A new booking reference is created for one booking, while the original booking is then just for one passenger. For me, I first instruct the agent to split the bookings and then call back and reference only the...

For a while, I’d been eyeing VietJet’s attractively priced direct flights from Brisbane (BNE) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN). That got us talking about a longer Vietnam trip. In December 2024, I finally booked. What began as a cheap getaway idea evolved into a six-week journey — and what was...

I had a very similar experience on a Singapore Airlines family flight and I needed to leave just one bag at left luggage in Changi airport. We ended up checking 3 pax through to LHR, Me and my orphaned bag were checked to SIN where I collected and deposited the bag then did a check-in. An...
