:o they just landed!

Looks like I only got bonus on spending of one of my cards. It wasn't clear what card it was meant to be, and I had spent more on the other card.... ah well.

Nothing here yet. I’m wondering if the next cycle this w/e will now be my end period (for my VISA). and yep, I spent more on my AMEX…
 
Think I will need to follow QF up on this. From the example above it looks like if you got the bonus points they posted at the same time as the regular credit card points. My Amex & ANZ card points post at the end & beginning of each month respectively. No bonus points on either.

Yes, I'll wait out the 8 weeks or whatever the T&Cs said, and decide whether it's worth the battle for 3,474 points along the lines of "it didn't say which card, so I assumed it was across both - and now I got it for neither"

(As posted earlier I missed it on both of my cards in august, but combining the two totals meets the target)

Nearly 5k bonus pts just landed. Now to work out if they match one or other card spend or a combo of both…

Nice little booster for PC requal.
For those playing at home, my bonus points are exactly 20% of the combined total points earned from both my VISA and my AMEX over the last three months (excluding QF bonus pts on flights etc). Note: both are 1 pt / $ cards.

I made sure I met the min spend on both cards, so I don’t know if you could just get away with a combined total spend to met the requirement.

As an aside, the bonus pts landed as “Other” category not “Cards and banking”.

Can confirm that points were received on a combined total also. I only met the minimum spend on one card and accidentally made a few small purchases on another card, however the totals were combined.

Looks like I didn't have to wait, or call!

Also had my bonus post yesterday. Though I'm not sure how it was calculated as it looks like I received a few more miles than I was expecting. Not going to complain though!

If you go to your QFF points activity and filter by “Last three months”, the total “Cards and banking” earn category (ignoring any “Bonus Points” line items from QF spend etc), should be be the base for calculating this promo bonus points.
 
Ahhhh that makes sense, I didn't realise that was excluded.
I’m assuming that because the original offers were a monthly “spend” not points earned. As mentioned earlier, both my cards are 1pt/$, so pretty simple math once I ignored a couple of bonus line items.

Curious what’s happening with 0.7pts/$ or 1.5pts/$ etc?
