Virgin Amex Velocity Platinum card now 110k points

[anat0l]

Thanks heaps Cryptarcadian! Think I ended up with 2 referrals, so thanks!

Has your recent referral from Cryptarcadian been reflected in your account?

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this or not but...
Should the Velocity points automatically sweep into my Velocity account? I thought I had to wait until my first bill was paid, which it has now, but still no transfer of points. I can see the 110k points in the Amex account but no referral bonuses in there. I was assuming the referral bonuses would credit at the same time my own points are transferred into the Velocity account. My partner got this Amex card as well and it looks like his Velocity points are automatically crediting into his account (as it's pooling into mine). What the hell is going on???

Same situation here, points have not sweeped across in expected timeframe

Lucky break ninja-tim I just put a 60 second approval referral over to you.

 

[get me outta here]

For a treat of a seat on SQ, there is still time to get 110K VA points which are excellent for transferring to SQ . :

Just applied tonight using davels referral link. Just wondering if being so close to the cut off and the delays of approval - is there a good chance I won't get sent my own referral link to pass on? Would love to pass on to my mum and friends to score some bonus points! Appreciate everyone contributing their own experiences, info etc - helps hugely for a newbie (& others) like me!

Does anyone know how to transfer your points over to velocity?
When I log into my account I see a summary saying points transferred which shows 0. Now when I dig deeper into the web site I can see that I have earned my 110,000 points, but I can't for the life of me see where I move them across to my velocity account?
For my platinum edge there is a section of the site where i can nominate transfer partners etc & presumably transfer points, but it looks like that's a membership rewards section only.
Thanks

I *think* the sweep over to your velocity account automatically at a particular time (for me it was when I received by next statement).

Indeed - automatic sweep once a month, no need to do anything from your side!

, Got my card this week through a referral on here. Enjoy the points.

If anybody is still looking for a link, please consider using mine (below). I try to travel Syd-Per monthly to visit my baby daughter ("stolen" by her mother but that's another story and don't get me started on the anti-father bias in the family courts).

All on my own $ so any points are greatly appreciated. I have become very aware of ff promotions in the last 18 months. Help a Dad stay connected to his little girl please.

A few weeks back I did sign up using someone's referral link up above so hope you have received the points. It was someone who wrote spent some time writing up a lengthy explanation - cudos there.

That said, a few more weeks to sit tight before all my bonus referrals points posts. I am sitting tight for the 200,000 points that is due (hello Amex, please hurry up). Similarly, with my wife, she has referred quite a few too but no points yet.
