New 100 Year anniversary Q Tags

hmm got this reply from QFF: "Like most airlines impacted by Coronavirus, Qantas is bound by Government enforced travel restrictions resulting in network changes and lounge closures. As a result we have paused a number of our travel related services including the issuance of physical membership cards and bag tag, and so we’re unable to provide a replacement bag tag for you at this time."
Jennifer is back from holidays?
 
Should I just email again and hope for the best?
As long as Jennifer doesn’t get hold of it. 🤔

Edit: I would probably just send a fresh email in 7-10 days, or so, without referring to any previous request. Rinse and repeat if necessary.
 
Jennifer was good to me ;) On a related note pulled a couple of old gold coasters out of a drawer today and the rubber around the top has started to disintegrate. A much older silver good as, silver

Here's what I found in my drawer... The "original RFID launch" platinum packaging and tag colour, together with the end of line former non-smart bag tags on the sides.

Then a sample of the additional four different platinum styles/colours I seem to have collected, collated together underneath in the packaging slots.IMG_20210115_175310_compress46.jpg
 
My partner requested new tags via email over the weekend and mentioned upcoming domestic travel in March:

As requested, we’ve ordered your replacement Bag tags, which will be delivered to your registered mailing address in the next 10-14 business days.

Kind regards,

Marietta Faye

Will update once they arrive to confirm whether she gets the commemorative or red roo design.

My partner did same - after seeing my “100“ tag arrive. Also got the positive email response from “Marietta” today.
 
I requested a luggage tag, after making SG back last November,
Here is my reply from QF

Thank you for contacting the Qantas Frequent Flyer Service Centre.

This is in regards to your query about baggage tags for achieving Gold.

Like most airlines impacted by Coronavirus, Qantas is bound by Government enforced travel restrictions resulting in network changes and lounge closures. As a result we have paused a number of our travel related services including the issuance of cards, kits and baggage tags.

We will however continue to monitor the situation and will update members if anything changes.

Well you heard it directly from the CEO at least :D
 
And on my 2nd attempt no go, makes no sense as using the bags is more 'contactless' than the paper tags..
 
So email sent on Monday afternoon via the website

I have some upcoming domestic travel and with the COVID-19 preference for contactless bag check-in I was hoping to get some replacement bag tags as my current ones are damaged. Thankyou

Response back Wednesday morning

Dear Mr motef,

Thank you for contacting Qantas Frequent Flyer Service Centre.

As requested Mr motef, we’ve ordered your Qantas bag tag replacement, which will be delivered to you in the next 10-14 business days.

Kind regards,

Jennifer

Will hit Platinum for first time this weekend. Will be interesting to see if I get any shiny new 100 year WP Coasters in the mail. ✈️🍾🥂
 
Is that another enhancement or a temporary Covid response?
Probably neither, but normally Enhancements(TM) are communicated in the manner of “We’re enhancing our services in response to feedback from customers who’ve told us they don’t want arrivals access...” as in the other thread.
