Yes I'll be updating this weekend - been away from home for the last little bit.

Many thanks to N7of9, the next update will probably be via google spreadsheet.

Virgin high flyer?

My issue with this one is the additoinal card holder fee... but it might be in with a shout if I ditch qantas for virgin points

I did think of adding a column for sign-on bonus too. Theres probably even a good use in creating a 'use' case, given some arbitrary spend levels and trying to form a 'value' judgement based upon probable spend and return of points. Having said that though, insurance is a minefield with each set of T&C subtly (or not so subtly) different, lounge access is often a cherry pick of different lounges rather than blanket access, etc, etc, I think it will make the table too large and maybe difficult to maintain.

Hey thanks for starting to pull this together. I love excel tables!
I agree a sign up bonus would be great to see - as I am quite interested in seeing this before getting my next card. Though could imagine it would be hard to keep updated.

Just wondering how people choose their cards - is it based on a sign up with a thought to churn, or is it based on the earn rate?
I tend to stick with the sign up bonus with the lowest cents per point cost, but also keep a velocity rewards flyer for day to day as it offers 1:1 (would prefer to use the AMEX for a better earn rate but it is too much hassle to deal with some places not accepting it IMO).

Again thanks for putting this table together.
