Qantas Points Club Discussion

I am worse off...

Worse off on lounge passes, better off on SC rollover.

• How does the Qantas Club membership work for those who hold status? Specifically, if I'm a Platinum/Gold member who obviously cannot make use of the Qantas Club membership, does the membership pause whilst I hold status and then resume when I lose status (as is the case for paid memberships)?

Might be a tricky question to answer, because you are specifically asking for the experiences of someone who is SG or higher (but not LTG), who does not have paid QP, who gets PCP, then eventually drops to PS after not retaining PCP. My guess is that type of person would be uncommon.

Would be interesting if someone in the above already had months of paid QP on pause, then ended up having an extra 12 months of QP added.



This link would suggest that nothing changes for a SG or higher, and you don't get the benefit if you are already QPPS/QPNB. Reality might be different, hence your question. Emphasis in bold:

"I've achieved Points Club Plus, when will I receive my Qantas Club membership?

As soon as you earn 350,000 Qantas Points from eligible transactions in your current Membership Year, your Qantas Club membership will be added to your digital Frequent Flyer card if you're a Bronze or Silver Frequent Flyer. Your Qantas Club membership will be valid for the duration of Points Club Plus membership.

All our digital membership cards are available in your Qantas App - simply click on the “MY QFF” menu option."

Couple questions about Points Club Plus as it appears I'll be earning enough points this year to qualify:

• How does the 100 status credit roll over work? Specifically I've got 180 status credits in my account as Platinum so won't be re-qualifying as Platinum this year. But does that mean that 100 of those status credits will roll over to next year?
• How does the Qantas Club membership work for those who hold status? Specifically, if I'm a Platinum/Gold member who obviously cannot make use of the Qantas Club membership, does the membership pause whilst I hold status and then resume when I lose status (as is the case for paid memberships)?

Paid QP membership can be suspended for one year, or the duration of holding Points Club Plus. If membership is not automatically suspended, telephone QFF.

PC+ “gifted” QP membership cannot be suspended.

When PC+, you no longer receive the useful lounge passes. Quite a while back QF sent a questionnaire about what Gold or WP members would like instead of the useless QP membership. However, nothing has changed. We can’t even gift the membership.

This 100 SCs rollover into your new anniversary year, like it or not.
