I tried searching this thread for an answer but couldn't really find an answer...could be me... and so I'm wondering:

What happens if i have a paid Qantas Club membership, but hit PC+?

Do I get a freeze for the duration of the paid membership which resumes after PC+ membership runs out?
Do I just lose the balance of the QC membership paid?
Get a pro-refund of QC?
Something else?

Thanks!

I'm guessing that QF won't give you anything, but it might be worth phoning and asking. It probably depends on your status too.

Shame about the promo. We just booked flights last week, oops! Does it work with domestic legs on an international ticket?

This.

Same also applies also if you reach Gold or higher. The paid QP balance is sitting there on ice.

Oh that's good to know!

When you hit LTG you get a prorata refund

I didn’t…

Yes.

I didn't bother when I hit LTG ten years ago. I worked out I probably had less than $50 credit from a 3 yr CoA QP corp rate that I bought in 1998 or 99 (for $175!). But I ended having status for most that time anyway apart from a quiet year or two somewhere along the way!

I didn’t…

You have to request it. It's not automatic.

I hit LTG in June 2011. Don’t think a refund was available then…

Nothing happens to the paid QC i believe. I think it's just "frozen" until PC+ runs out. The only case I've heard of them refunding QC is if you hit LTG.

Has anyone transferred QBR points to their account? How long do they take to post?

Find myself in the unexpected position of possibly hitting PC right before my membership year ends but would need to top up with about 10,000 points.

OT, but it should have been. There's another thread discussing it. Pretty sure peeps refer to hitting LTG even before 2011 and getting refunds (LTG was introduced around 2001).

Instant I believe?

You may well be right. It’s all lost in the mists of time for me…
