[VPS]

The links aren't playing nice

Just received an email to say that I could get a whole heap of things including Triple points - don't remember seeing this before and I've just booked a few flights - dammit

Hi Sue,

You can't host images from your own PC. Do you have a photobucket account? Or you can upload an image to this site.

My wife received similar email last month for her birthday. It included a $30 hotel voucher as well as some bonus points offers.

 

[Blackswan]

Happy Birthday, VPS!

I also got this recently. 3x points, double points at restaurants, $30 hotel voucher.

 

[eminere]

Did anyone else's birthday email have the hotel voucher offer but actually not state the voucher number?

 

[RichardMEL]

Did anyone else's birthday email have the hotel voucher offer but actually not state the voucher number?

yes. mine didn't have it.

I also didn't get a triple points offer as part of it.

 

[samh004]

I don't think I got a triple points offer, however I did get the voucher and gave it away

In the past I've also received a substantial discount percentage from the FF store, so much so I almost bought [-]toasters[/-] a flight sim experience!

 

[awaywithfairies]

Hmmm, my birthday is next month. I might hold off making any bookings until I see what (if anything) the email offers!

Hmmm, my birthday is next month. I might hold off making any bookings until I see what (if anything) the email offers!

The birthday offering seems random. One family member received the $30 off voucher (which is fully transferable), another with a birthday just a few days later received nothing. I'd book refundable hotels if you can, if you get a voucher you can always cancel and rebook.

 

[Pushka]

MrP received his offer about 3 weeks before his birthday (tomorrow).

 

[eminere]

yes. mine didn't have it.

I'm mildly annoyed by this as I could use the voucher. Have emailed QFF customer service but have yet to receive a reply.

 

[Skrambled]

I received the triple points birthday offer last week which worked out well as I had to book some flights which was great (although a few weeks earlier would also have been good as I have taken a lot of flights recently for work).

I flew the first leg yesterday and have received the base points + status bonus but not the bonus points. It says the points can take up to 6 weeks - does anyone have experience with receiving them?

 

[Groundfeeder]

Yup, got my "birthday" pressy from Uncle Q the other day. It may be handy for upcoming 1st grand-daughter birth in MEL in Jan2017. Having your birthday near Xmas results in a lot of similar offers from various hotel chains, menswear etc. Much appreciated Uncle Q!!

 

[teamhamsandwich]

I got 15% off qantas store, double points on dining out, $25 discount at the iconic, $20 off at kogan, 10% off magazines, 35% off some riedel glasses, 1000 bonus points with avis.

Wont be using any of them and a bit disappointing really...

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

Heh, QF never sent me a birthday pressie!

 

[La Mouette]

I haven't received anything for my birthday last week

Re: Qantas Birthday offers

If you had got a SC offer it would have been most likely 50% bonus, not double and certainly not triple.

Re: Qantas Birthday offers

I received QF birthday offers in '15 & '16 that I remember.

The '15 had a 15% off epiQure code

 

[Nug300]

Re: Qantas Birthday offers

I got one today as well but no triple points offer
