Has someone got a screenshot of the current program T&Cs etc?

QF money also out. It's oy a 2h outage. I am thinking back end authentication services
 
Odd. At 8:55pm AEDT, I clicked to bring up the Qantas site, and it did, with me already logged in. Never does/do that; first visit sine I turned on laptop.

Edit - and now a survey page pop-up over the booking page can't be closed.

Edit - refresh that page in boxes disappears but now I still can’t make a booking because the bloody pulsating dots just keep going and going

Edit. I give up. Trying to book a business seat for the end of May and simply can't. Frigg'n hopeless.

Close browser; reopen, log in, try to book:

So, I go to take screen shots of my QFF pages. Under Status Activity it tells me I have 60 SCs. My year re-started on1 March and I have so far taken 2 flights, each earning 15 SCs. No DSC promos, and no DSC award in the table of activity.

Immediately underneath it confirms that I have earned 30 SCs.

Also, what would this refer to? Its 6 days after my second flight that earned 1,400 points; the first earned the same.

Like I said - take screenshots of your account pages ASAP 🤷‍♂️

Are you sure you did not earn DSC, but the activity has currently disappeared for everyone?

Ie the SC total is correct for flights taken earning DSC up to last night, but activity only showed for us for a few hours (see the DSC thread)

The last one is clearly from some sort of promo.

Did you book a hotel?

There was a promo kicking around that was sent via email after you booked a flight offering 3,000pts for booking a hotel.

Could be that.

Looking back at my activity for the past 9 months, there are no flights that could result in 30 SCs as a DSC. As as I said - elsewhere on the same page it says I have 30 SCs (correct, I believe). EDIT: I just checked the DSC thread - apols @RichardMEL , this might be it ....

Ah, yes, could be. I did book a Qantas hotel recently and did the stay - thanks. But it does say 'Flight ...' 🤷‍♂️

All my tallies (Status, SCs total, points total) look correct

Irrelevant about SC activity prior to this month, unless you had PCP, since your year reset Mar 1.

You took the two flights in March earning 30 SC.

Were they booked under the current DSC promo?
 
I've just requaled for Plat, also LT Gold. Mine says 'Platinum, Lifetime QP'
I would in theory be LTQP, because I had unused QP membership when I first qualified SG. At the time I was informed that the balance of my QP membership year would come back to life if I dropped below SG. So I suppose once I rolled up LTG I got LTQP as part of the deal....Obviously a nonsense as LTQP won't get me into other OW airline lounges.

Anyhoo, I think this is just a glitch with the presentation. Mrs Pineapple is SG, also LTG, and her membership block shows ...

Possibly the LTQP nonsense will be presented as an enhancement!
 
I wonder if rejigging the status tiers are part of the overhaul?
I thought this too, but apart from the obvious lashback they don't need, one's current status wouldn't just be downgraded like that imo. QF is many things, but have always acted fairly with things like this. I just couldn't see that being deliberate tbh.

Besides, status earn requirements have not changed online that I could see.

It still seems a puzzling change for @oirets - hopefully soon resolved.
