How could you NOT spend $500 in multiple transactions over three months?Multiple transactions by 27-oct
They are just giving the points away!

Oops. This sounds like a great offer! that is supposed to be 10,000 points not $10,000!

So did I until I read further here. Seems very sweet! Now, what will Inspend the $10,000 I am going to get from spending $500!I got it on my Qantas Amex but not my Westpac one - money for jam really. I thought it had to be $500 in one transaction when I first read it
I got the offer, but within the next three months I'm due to get a $9K refund on my Amex from a cancelled Qantas flight. This means over that period my net spend will likely be LESS than $500. Would I still get the 10,000 points I wonder?
Thanks for the response. Not entirely sure that would work. I guess it depends on whether Qantas looks at the total NET spend on the credit card over the three months. If they do, I'd have to spend at least $9500 to qualify for the 10,000 points.Ask for the $9k to be transferred back to you once it hits your account.
My AMEX has had a negative balance for a while now with many airline refunds. I spent the $500 earlier this week and the 10,000 points have just posted to my account. So the offer is not based on a positive balance. Of course if your account is also more than 10,000 points in the red, then this offer will simply help bringing back your statement point balance closer to 0.Thanks for the response.

I'll already be taking a 9,000 point hit (actually more because the fare was paid on a card that attracts 2+ point per $1 spent on Qantas products) on account of the refund, ie my points balance will go down by that much. So if there is still a way of getting the 10,000 points to help mitigate that hit, that would be useful.
