I am supposed to be QFF Platinum today but...

[JohnPhelan]

If you consider you are happy that's ok but i will shift to SINGAPORE AIRLINES or EMIRATES because they REALLY take care about their customers.

Um, when did SQ and EK start flying to Noumea?

.... after 57 posts I am still trying to work out what the issue is here.
......

After 81 posts I still have a suspicion that the OP is winding us up.

 

[bugayev]

I think I've figured it out. The OP keeps going on about being in J class - thus his experience of getting express cards due to class of service, not status. He saw the Hot Chocolate trolley go past because he was on a 747 and that was prepared in the large J galley for some reason (possibly due to the fact they use the smaller trolley for that particular service) and thus again, being in J, he wasn't offered it because it was a Y class service. If he was on an A380 then I don't know why the trolley would have gone past but it seems, from his posts, that he travels in J not Y anyway.

His points didn't post immediately, which does happen, and now the underwear is in a bunch!

 

[Ansett]

What an absolute wind up this.

1) OP complains about missing Hot Chocolate in Y but claims he flies J all the time???
2) In addition he claims 1 flight per month to Hong Kong in J 12 x 241 status credits gives a total of 2880 without any other flights being done on OW airlines so why is he not WP or WP1?
3) Doesn’t know about the F lounge in Sydney ? What the???? Given that the OP always flies J from Sydney then he has to walk right past the F lounge to get to the J lounge. Unless the OP is blind I fail to see how he could miss that and or not be aware of it.

Read all the posts then see the inconsistencies in it


Come on guys looks like a wind up to me!!!!! Read all the posts

 

[tinkybelle]

sounds like a windup or a whinger
whichever it is he has got 9 pages so far in 24 hrs
maybe its time to let this one go.:shock:

I'd like to know when QF "changed" their systems.

Haven't they migrated from their old Fortran system to Siebel in the last year or two, or is that still to happen?

 

[JetLagged]

Not sure I'd agree that Chandon is up near the top of Oz fizz. Several Tasmanian producers are way above that IMHO. But, even that said, only Champagne is the real deal.

To that list I'd add the Grant Burge Pinot Chardonnay, and also one by a small winery in SA that has often produced Australia's driest bubbly that has won the 'Best Champagne in Australia' Award at a blind taste testing of bubbly producers and importers, including PH, Moet etc! And both sell for way less than most of their counterparts!

OP, I had a similar SG to WP qualification problem as yours.

Check http://www.australianfrequentflyer....rogram/newbie-wp-qantas-were-great-37470.html

Summary: qualifier flight was <24h before an int'l QF. My SCs hadn't updated in the system, so I technically hadn't hit WP and had no FLounge access. A call to QF and an explanation of my situation, and they applied common sense. Some flexibility and customer service and I'm a loyal and happy QFFer.

Weirdly, i flew on Americam Airines from JFK to LAX on the same day on my departure from LAX to SYD and guess what ?? My points and credits from AA were on my QFF account before my QANTAS points.

I don't need SQ or EK start from NC i can catch a fly from SYD or AKL. So don't think QF is the only option and open your eyes

 

[simongr]

VIRGIN ATLANTIC. their business class is a real one.
I use business class from SYD to HKG every month and the 747 still have a non flat bed

Could you clarify for us who you fly each month to HKG with? Due to the lack of conveniently timed horizontal beds on QF do you then fly all of the time with VS?

Even if half of your flights were on QF you would easily be WP and would have been for some time.

Read my post on before talking for nothing if you have nothing to do : go away. I never said i was flying all the time in J on QF so close your box.

I re-read your posts and it said in the first quote above that you were flying each month in J. People might then interpret that as you were flying in J.

It happens. Just a wonder of the IT world.

Like I said, there is no need to get narky.

There is no wonder with answers like that and the previous one the way people are responding.

so do you mean if you travel every month on a company in J you must received SC ?? and did you hear about upgrades ??

 

[christopherc]

No need to be narky.

I have just posted what is posted on the QF website (It is the same on both the New Caledonia QF site and the Australian QF Site)

I am not nary as you said and if you would have try to book it online you would have seen i am right even QANTAS customer service said there is a problem because Red deal is not supposed to be upgradable.. maybe you know their website better than them.
if you try to book a ticket from NC to LAX and another one from SYD to LAX on the same day same flight you will see we have better prices than yours on australian website so don't talk about thongs you don't know.

 

[simongr]

Have you heard of capitalisation of words at the start of sentences, grammar, punctuation and being respectful in open discourse with other people?

Setting aside the frankly quite rude attitude you would probably get more helpful information and friendlier responses if you volunteered useful information yourself.

Just for clarification on the express path as a Gold Frequent Flyer travelling in Economy you were not entitled to the cards and were being provided them erroneously. It does not matter that you received them on every flight - you were not supposed to have them.

Sydney International Airport (T1) Guide

I haven't heard of many companies not allowing the accrual of SCs on int'l J flights. In fact I hadn't heard of a single example. I have heard of many examples of domestic whY flights not accruing points but again generally I have heard that those flights do accrue SCs. So going back to paying for whY flights and having them all upgraded to J - great work. I wish I was that successful with upgrades.

YOURS? This isn't a site by Qantas or Virgin, or any airline. This is an independent discussion board not affiliated to any airline. Perhaps you're mistakenly venting here instead of at Qantas?

 

[simongr]

I think the implication was that residents of NC got better prices than residents of Australia. It is hard to understand completely though.

What did happened to Wilco:?:

You have been rude to most people who have offered an opinion on here.

Where did I ever bring the price of a NOU-LAX and SYD-LAX into it?

I just stated what is on the website in regards to upgrades and eligible fares. I am well aware of the fact that flights ex-AU are more expensive than most.

Your rudeness will not help. From what I have seen the responses to your OP have been more than reasonable.

Chris, you have just revealed yourself as a native English speaker, which means by default you have merely been ****-stirring. I do thank you for the laughs!!
