Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

[SYD]

Sorry, I realise that's how you can do it. My previous post may have been poorly worded. Probably going to end up with wines, but was hoping for better deals with bonus points so had been wondering if there were any recommendations for wine and/or something quick and cheap on QF shopping that could be sustainably delivered?

I bought a case the other day with 25000 bonus pts and a leaf BUT forgot to use my PC voucher! ….

For some reason I have had issues with Red Energy & the green leaf.
Initially last year, had to send copy of bill and RE contract to QFF, ok understand that as I was a new customer.
And for this year, after 2 calls, 3 emails, had to resend bill and contract, it took 6 weeks to get this year's green leaf.
Have 4 now, will wait until near end of my year to donate for #5.

I bought a $25 Uber digital gift card from Qantas Marketplace and paid an extra dollar for it to be "sustainably" delivered.

Does that count as cheap ?

To answer your question - yes, but a very good strategy, I like it @DejaBrew !

They offset the carbon emissions from the digital delivery?

Thanks @Big John

I think a “sustainably-delivered” gift card will be my fallback option. Just hoping for a decent wine bonus points offer will rear its head in the next week or so

Cheers. That seems to be the best offer currently going. Unfortunately I don’t have a voucher to make it better value, but it’s on the radar none-the-less.

Ended up purchasing a $25 digital gift card (for something I would’ve otherwise been buying anyway) and paid an extra $1 to make it a “climate positive” delivery

Order made at 1:40am. Gift card received through email at 2:07am. Green leaf applied by lunchtime and GT secured for another year. Will wait till next month to claim my SC and give myself a 50SC head start.

Well once more around the sun with this green tier thing. I've done it again this year, although I'm starting to feel more dubious about the value.

I had to change my state to Tasmania for the offset to save some points, but I don't feel too guilty as Qantas screw you over on the points conversion.

Can I please confirm : Is it still the case that you can get the 5 leaves, wait for the confirmation email, then delay until the next membership year to select & accept the status reward?

The email will tell you how long you have to claim the reward, but its three months.

Can confirm. That’s precisely what I’m doing right now.

Yes provided you get that final green leaf less than 90 days before end of your FF year, as you only have 3 months to claim the SCs/Points.

 

[Big John]

Can confirm. That’s precisely what I’m doing right now.

Me too. Waiting for new new membership year to tick over before claiming SCs.

Yes and no
I did see that for a bunnings digital gift card and wondered if that would count as a leaf.
I don’t need wine just yet

It's the sustainable delivery you add to the cart with the purchase that generates the leaf... nothing for the gift card itself.
I added sustainable delivery to the cart with my home offset and barrier reef donation, so it was a 3 item, 3 leaf shopping cart for mine.

Cheers,
Matt.

Now trying to use points and offset and now it won't process
suggests I need to ring the service centre, so lazy not to have a phone number on their system.

My partners membership year expires this month (september).

She's been asked to pick the 50 SCs or 10k points, but im suggesting she hold off until next month and claim it then.

Can you then do the 5 green leaves again, and stack it? So now she could claim 100 SCs from green in a single membership year?
