Qantas Premier Titanium card

[dairyfloss]

Hey dairyfloss, what's the best way to contact the concierge about booking a ticket that I was only able to price via a call book with QF directly in order to the get the 10% discount? Thanks!

Hi - if it’s tickets for you and/or you plus one other pax, then you call the main QF Money concierge number (1300 992 700) as a cardholder to make the booking and get 10% off the base fare in advance (including sale fares). If they need support to make the booking, they can connect/call through to the QF agents to help them, I believe.

If you are trying to do something after the event, then that was by email, and I’ve recently heard that the flexibility I enjoyed last year on this might not be an option any longer. They just want people booking via the concierge over the phone. No reimbursement method (supposedly).

Cheers,
Matt.

Hi All I'm new to this thread, just want to confirm that no 10% discount or 20% bonus SC can be applied to Emirates flight with QF numbers?

Definitely not

Does the 20% bonus SC apply for bookings made under the QF business rewards portal?

Haven't seen anything to indicate.


Also, WTF is with all the stupid security codes and dumb questions just to see a statement FFS.
Had difficulty in redeeming the Titanium F lounge vouchers too.

Likewise …

Likewise for me, just one payslip.

Has anyone had a go at applying for this with an income under $200k (say something like $180k)?

I recall other cards with high income thresholds being a little bit flexible but I haven’t read anything about this one

Would like to know the answer to this as well

Whilst reviewing and considering this card, I'm curious about the ability to use the 10% discount on "multi city" bookings. The T&C on the Qantas Money page indicate clearly that multi city fares are ineligible.



The actual terms and conditions document defines a multi city itinerary as any itinerary that includes two or more flights.



The same Terms and Conditions, at 4.8 state that the benefit applies to flights that include a stopover, but not flights that form part of a multi city itinerary.




So, I'm trying to understand what the define as a stop over, versus a multi city itinerary.

I.e, I presume MEL-xSYD-LAX-MEL gets the benefit because your transitting Sydney. But what if I wanted to stop over in sydney for 3 days? Would that be considered a stop over or part of a multi city itinerary?

They won’t allow it. Consider the rule as allowing for connecting flights, but not much else.

You might be able to do an overnight in SYD on a connection, but you wouldn’t get away with 3 days. In this instance, you’d be better off booking the flights separately so you can claim the discount solely on the larger fare.

Cheers,
Matt.

Thanks Matt. I don't like the answer but appreciate it. That made the decision not to pursue the card a little easier.

Some changes were announced today with regard to the QF Money Premier products, which I find in my situation to be favourable, for the most part. I've highlighted the positive ones in green. Yet to see what 'Online Access' for bookings actually means, but hoping it's something like the Qantas Business Rewards interface for making bookings with a base fare discount applied, which one would access via their Qantas Money account. In any event, I hate booking over the phone, especially with these often clueless concierge services, and so being able to self-manage, as and when I want is perfect.

The increase on the discounted fares benefit from being limited to 2 adult pax on a single booking, twice per year, to being available for up 2 adults + up to 2 children + up to 2 infants on a single booking, twice per year, greatly increases the chances of recovering the annual fee through the discounts. I managed to cover the fee in YR 1 from the 2 adults, but fell short this year, as 2 of our o/s J trips were CRs. With 3 in the family, an additional fare discount on revenue J travel is good.

Theres one item in orange which could cause headaches for some... I read this as being QF's ability to cancel your bookings where you have used the discount to book a multi-city or other ineligible for discount fare. Hopefully the system is smart enough to warn you in the booking process, and if not, that they would at least give you the opportunity to change it, before cancelling.

There are also some changes to the interest free period and retail APR % which don't make any difference for me, as I'm on auto-pay for the period, post statement, but suspect may be negative for some.

What are the changes?

• The Interest Free Period for Retail Purchases on your account is reducing from up to 55 days to up to 44 days which means that your Payment Due Date will change. All statements issued on or after 5 November 2024 will have a due date that is 14 days from the statement end date. Please refer to the important information below on what you should do for future repayments.

• Effective 5 November 2024, the Annual Percentage Rate that applies to your Retail Purchases will increase to 20.99% p.a. (up from 19.99%) Any unpaid Retail Purchase Balances (including fees and charges) and any new Retail Purchases will be charged at the new Annual Percentage Rate of 20.99% p.a.

• We are including a new section in the Terms and Conditions about Mistaken Internet Payments and amending the terms on “Limits on use”.

• We are removing “Mistaken Internet Payment” as a defined term from section 17 Dictionary.

• Effective from 1 December 2024, the Discounted Fares Benefit will only be accessible via Online Access instead of Qantas Premier Titanium Concierge Service.

• Effective from 1 December 2024, we are improving the Discounted Fares Benefit from “two travellers, twice per year” to allow up to two adults, two children and two infants per booking, twice per year.

• Effective from 1 December 2024, Qantas reserves the right to cancel any Discounted Fares Benefit bookings made by You that are not compliant to the Benefit Terms and Conditions.

• A new “Anniversary Year” definition has been included to clarify the benefit period.

• We provided clarity on the eligibility criteria to earn the Status Credit Benefit.
