May I ask what some of the winning questions were? It'd be interesting to see what kind of questions won, not to mention it may raise a few points about the cash card.
I entered but didn't win but I also don't qualify as not a member for 12 months yet. I don't mind telling you what my questions were and in fact I submitted 5 questions to Red Roo. Here are my Famous Five questions.... enjoy.
Question 1: Is there a maximum amount I can load onto the card?
Scenario: Dick is a punk rocker. A British expat living in Erskineville, Dick and his group “Unhinged” regularly fly to the UK in “F” and play in some of London’s East End underground clubs where the punk rock scene is still active. “After the gig me an’the lads like to take a couple of birds back to our hotel” says Dick, “we like to snort a bit of ‘Stable’, you know; a horse steroi_ we get off a friendly vet. Because we can do a bit of damage to the hotel room we need to pay up next morning and it can be a lot of nicker. Who wants to carry loads of the folding stuff around? Too many geezers ready to pull a blade”
Question 2: Can the card be used in Australia like a regular card?
Scenario: George is a big girl with a heart that is even bigger. A university student and activist, George can’t yet afford to travel overseas instead preferring to travel around Australia to participate in any protest rally. George has had her share of run ins with the constabulary and now knows most bail bondsmen by first name. Because they respect George as a regular customer they allow her to post bail using a card. A modern girl, George doesn’t even like cash….. it’s sooooo yesterday.
George only flys “Y” and likes the Red E Deals.
Question 3: Can the card be used for purchases onboard Qantas flights?
Scenario: An attractive man with a good pedigree, Julian is a favourite of the more mature ladies, Julian is a professional gigolo so soon has them “eating out of his hand”. Once he has their confidence, Julian tells them about his short term financial difficulty. And they are always happy to oblige. Only flying “J”, he gets excited at the sound of the shopping trolley and uses this as an opportunity to impress the FA with his impeccable taste in colognes and perfume, always purchasing several. He also sees it as an opportunity to interact with another lady. Julian never buys from a man.
Question 4: Can you select your own PIN?
Scenario: Timmy a retired operative last worked for the Department of Unauthorised Maritime Arrivals. On a good pension, Timmy does however need to manage his budget. Knowing he deserves some reward, Timmy flys in “Y+” but only on Qantas metal and only on an A380. After years of service to the country he is entitled to the upper deck and prefers to sit at the front of the cabin close to the “iron curtain”. An alcoholic due to the years spent in Vodka bars during the Cold War, Timmy now has difficulty remembering numbers so would prefer to choose a PIN he can remember.
Timmy hopes that one day he will be given an Op Up.
Question 5: Can you set up an auto reload facility?
Scenario: Four times divorced but still intact, Anne (“Don’t forget the ‘e’ daaaarling”) is the daughter of the late Dawn Byron Monteagle III. A wealthy woman she constantly travels to Europe and London in “F” (“Do I look like I fly economy???”) on business visiting some of the best fashion houses. When in London, after a lunch of cheese and watercress sandwiches washed down with lashings of lemonade, Anne likes to shop at Harrods. As she has a propensity to spend vast sums of money, it would be useful for Anne to set up an auto reload facility to avoid any embarrassing moments. “Cash is soooo common darling”.
