Qantas double status credits OR double points offer [book 23-28 March 2023]

Flights on 3 May credited with DSC, flight on 2 May not credited yet...COME ON!

 

[Cheesey Mac]

DSC posted this morning for flights over the weekend booked through Amex.

Wonder if they post 00:00 GMT weekdays?

 

[exceladdict]

Nothing here. Flying out next Monday evening and hoping (likely in vain) that the credits will post and push me over the line to WP so we can use the FLounge. Starting to get that sinking feeling…

Yes, we missed out on two F lounges at LHR last weekend.

Any PC/PC+ members been credited as yet for reward flights booked and flown in the promo? Looking for confirmation of a presumption that DSCs will apply on that type of earn. I have some booked for later in the year.

Cheers,
Matt.

Can confirm DSC applied to reward flights.

Can confirm DSC applied to reward flights.

Awesome - thanks!

Update to this:

1. International flight taken on 10MAY23, DSC credited on 11MAY23
2. No DSCs yet for all the 10 or so domestic legs taken in the past 2 weeks

Update to this :

Can now confirm that the domestic DSC for flights taken on 11 and 12 MAY23 have landed. Still no DSC for domestic flights taken on 01,02,03 MAY 23.

So does this mean you’ve had batches of DSC land at different times today (i.e. the batch update/script appears to have run multiple times today for you)?

PC member...flew J award - 2 flights - on Friday....standard SCs posted before flight landed, and double SCs posted today....3 days later

Nah ... I think I only have one batch of domestic DSCs land this morning. I still have a few more domestic DSCs that's not arrived yet. More specifically, the domestic flights that I took last week have DSC landed, BUT not for the domestic flights I took the week before ... so it's a mystery how the later ones were processed, but the older ones were not ...

Same for me

Still waiting 5-6 weeks

Anyone with flights taken in April received their bonus SC yet? I'm flabbergasted that recent flights in May get their bonus SC within a few days but those of us who flew in April have not received their bonus SC?

Surely processing should be first in, first out? And with the power of computers these days, it should take mere minutes to process, not weeks?

I'm currently few points short of WP (bonus SC would take me over) and want to book reward seats for my next lot of flights. Most annoying.

I think one person reported receiving DSC for a flight taken April 28, but have heard nothing apart from that.

 

[flyingfan]

Still waiting for DSCs - April 11 onwards and still nothing. Made me doubt I'd registered correctly but I swear I tapped the register button at least twice and saw the confirmation screen at least twice.

Shame if people have missed out on moving up and getting the consequential benefits sooner. Shouldn't take this long imho.

I find it interesting that Qantas amended the DSC bonus to 8 weeks in 2022, previous DSC promos were up to 6 weeks.

We know inflation is rampant....

but seriously truly poor the backdating hasn't been done yet. I'm not affected, but so disappointing for people, specially those with April membershop anniversaries who may have been relying on DSC for status up - it will come out in the wash of course but this is ridiculous it's taking so long. *shakes head*

Give this was "the DSC that Qantas didn't really have to have" this might just be their way of keeping the lounges "lean" (they're not lean) for a little longer

That it could be a cost saving strategy? I'm personally missing out on a few flounge experiences as I wait for my 600ish DSC to update. I assume most that go for the DSC promo already have the status they are earning.

650+ pending here.

I had a look at the promo page again last night and note that it actually states -:

Double Qantas Points and Status Credits will be credited to your account from eight weeks after travel.

I know people who’ve traveled in May have already been receiving their DSC, but the way this reads is that Qantas are basically saying they’ll sit on it for 8 weeks post travel before doing anything about posting your DSC
