Re: Velocity Amex – 80,000 points, return free flight, lounge passes,travel insurance

If anyone is considering signing up for this card, please use my referral link by clicking >>> HERE <<< or the picture of the card at the bottom of my post.

I only fly 2 or 3 times a year so building a decent points bank is somewhat difficult. Using my referral code would benefit me greatly, as well as netting yourself an extra 30,000 points by using it. There are many great perks for you by signing up to the Amex Velocity Platinum Card. They include the following...

- 80,000 velocity points upon spending $500 within the first 3 months
- A free return domestic flight with Virgin each year.
- 2 free passes to a domestic Virgin lounge per year
- 3 points per $ at thousands of restaurants across Australia.
- 2 points per $ for airlines, accommodation, cruise and tour operators
- Supplementary cards for no additional cost
- Discounted international companion business class fares on Virgin / Etihad / Delta
- Usual travel insurance / purchase protection etc

For anyone that chooses to use my referral link, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks guys.

This offer has been extended to February 2016, courtesy of the generosity of American Express.

Virgin Velocity Platinum American Express


This card is still the best offer for Velocity points bonus out there. To sum it up:

80000 bonus Velocity points + Free Virgin Australia domestic flight + 2 Virgin Australia Lounge Passes + Travel Insurance for only $349 annual fee.

The free domestic flight covers most of the annual fee already.
Most important of all, 80000 bonus Velocity points can be converted to 59259 Singapore Krisflyer miles. It can get you award ticket on Singapore Airlines (as an example):


- Sydney - Singapore - Hong Kong on Business One-Way (46750 KF miles)
- Sydney - Singapore - Rest of South East Asia Business One-Way (46750 KF miles)


If you spend a little on your card to accumulate more miles, you can go the following:

- Sydney - Singapore - Tokyo on Business One-Way (65875 KF miles)
- Sydney - Singapore - Tokyo on A380 Suites/First One-Way (80750 KF miles)

If you just want a basic card to earn Velocity points with NO ANNUAL FEE, or not qualified for the Platinum card, then the American Express Velocity Escape Card is for you.

It is still a fantastic deal. If you want all these benefits, you should review the table of benefit below and apply on the link below:

Re: 80,000 velocity points

Thought I'd throw my hat into the 80,000 point ring. :D
Hopefully you'll find the following gif helpful in your decision making process.

I have not included the Perth to Sydney return flight on the above map due to that being an unofficial route. The experience of myself & others on this forum is that amex will gladly allow this route. :)

So, I applied for my mum who didn't have a velocity account at the time of opening the Amex card. Amex has given me the newly opened Velocity account number, but I have no way of logging in to the velocity frequent flyer website as:
1. I don't have a password
2. I don't know/tried the email I used for the application to request a new password.

How did others manage to log in?

Do you have enough info to give VFF a ring and ask them to reset your password?

Yeah well I've got all my personal details (name address etc) and membership #. I assume that should be enough. Just very poor form from either AMEX or velocity to not send out a membership pack etc. or email. Had to email Amex to find out the velocity # as it wasn't printed on the card.

Maybe that's the hope from Amex/Velocity, that some noobs who apply for this card forget to ask for the velocity membership # and/or can't be bothered getting their log in info, so then the points get forgotten and wasted.
