10,000 Bonus QFF Points for opening an IG Share trading account

[NoName]

Using my Explorer to fund my IG account , effectively buying SPG points for 1 cent each is pretty good value in my opinion . Compare to their recent 35% off price is still 3 cents / SPG point

Doing the same here. Sadly I have a very low credit limit (intentionally) on the card so slow going. Does anyone know whether a credit limit request through my online account on the AMEX website will result in a hit to the credit rating?

It will.

Was thinking of doing the same. Asked AMEX and they assured me there would be an enquiry recorded.

It will.

My experience is that if Amex offers you a credit increase, then there is no credit check

So how much are people depositing and withdrawing?

Any chance they close this loophole?

They will if people on ozb start posting about it

Indeed, just curious how much people are putting through. Seems you can get money in and out within 24 hours.

I'm only on minimum limit (purposely for other churning opportunities), so mine is minimal.

If IG's deposit fees charged cover their cost and have a tiny margin built in, I couldn't see them being overly worried about it - if the deposit fee is costing them money then that's a different story. But AMEX might be the one who takes issue with it, since ultimately they're the ones paying for the points.

I think we should try keep this thread on topic relating to the 10,000 QF points. If you want to discuss other opportunities and want said opportunities to continue for as long as possible, they are likely best discussed via PM or on some other private communication / group.

Seems the points posting is all over the place. I'm still waiting on points from a trade made in November!

When in November? That is getting very close to the 8 weeks T&C's.

The bonus points posting is really all over the shop with this, some are getting them only a few days after the trade whereas some it is taking a few weeks.

I did the trade on 12th December. No bonus 10k points or 25 points yet. Same for the wife. Sent an email to support asking if i had satisfied the criteria. No response. Have the 8 week date set in my calendar to chase them if not received.

Give them a bell, I've found them really good on the phone.

I also joined up in early December, registered my QFF number, deposited the money, made the trades and exited a little while later... but have received no points. I haven't chased them up yet as I'm lazy, but it will happen.

Late November. I think I'll wait until the 8 week mark then follow up.

No points on my end yet either. I have also set myself a reminder to check. Had to wait something like 90 days after a flight once before I could make a claim because the T&Cs said you had to...
