    I see these offers quite often on a lot of forums but have no clue what the Regus thing is. Are the lounges only found in cities? Or do they partner with airport lounges as well?

  • whatwhat on 16/06/2013 - 22:00

    Wouldn't a valid flight ticket also be required to gain access to the lounges?

    • muncan on 16/06/2013 - 22:01

      From my welcome email…

      As a Businessworld Gold member you can enjoy:
      • Unlimited walk-in access to any of our 1500 global Business Lounges and cafes with business-grade internet and complimentary refreshments.

      More information on Regus's business lounge webpage

    • muncan on 16/06/2013 - 22:12

      Also, don't expect all business lounges to be located at airports…
      eg. the 6 serving Melbourne airport

      But thanks OP - will now be inspecting the business lounge in Dubai en route to Europe :-)

        Having lived in Dubai for a number of years I don't think that lounge will be accessible within the airport. Terminal 2 handle's all the low cost airlines and it is on the opposite side of the runway from Terminal 1 and 3. If you're flying EK they use T3 only.

        • muncan on 17/06/2013 - 21:30

      I take that back. After speaking to them it only includes tea and coffee and everything else you pay extra for including printing and photocopying.

      • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 11:28

        Its a business centre, selling business services including printing, copying, office space etc.
        Used to pop into OW - free drinks at my old local, while copying etc.
        This is just a bit more upmarket with central locations in many cities on your travels - often with great views.
        When travelling, some tourist info centres offer similar free services.

      As you have not given them any details for charging next year, they will remind you.

      haha just what i'm thinking too. but im worried about what was mentioned in http://hackmytrip.com/2013/01/is-regus-gold-membership-worth… something about limiting you to 10 entries per place in a month?

      • INFIDEL on 16/06/2013 - 23:33
        +1

        I think you misread that - a comment was "Even if they have a clause limiting me to 10 days a month at any location…", not that they do. That comment was about homeless using the business centre. Other comments were about access to office space, which is a paid service, available on Platinum Cards from 5+ days a month.

      • seanbaussie on 17/06/2013 - 09:34

        Their T&C's do say "Should you use more than ten days in a single Regus centre per month we reserve the right to charge an additional usage fee."

        • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 11:39
          +1

          Quoted out of context…
          That condition is on OFFICE use (where membership includes days of office use per month), not the lounge.
          (Membership entitles the cardholder to free Business Lounge access and/or a specified number of “Co-Work” office days or “Private” office days per month as specified by the region selected in your membership options.)

          2. Use of all services and products is subject to availability. Office use is measured in whole days, and unused days can not be carried over to the following month. A Businessworld membership is not intended to be a replacement for a full time or regular office. Should you use more than ten days in a single Regus centre per month we reserve the right to charge an additional usage fee. Offices must be cleared at the end of each day and you are solely responsible for your belongings at the centre.

          For most people, drinking a coffee is not measured in days ;)

        • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 14:50

          10 days a month global OFFICE access would costs $649/mth - in a different league to Lounge Lizards like us.

        • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 21:19

          Membership email states Unlimited walk-in access to any of our 1500 global Business Lounges and cafes with business-grade internet and complimentary refreshments

        • INFIDEL on 18/06/2013 - 01:31

          So? It was the same answer in reference to a different question.

  • INFIDEL on 16/06/2013 - 22:51
    +2

    Great! Free WiFi is a little hard to find in Japan, so their offices will come in handy.
    Can't wait to use the card in 28 days.

    • Rupture on 17/06/2013 - 08:52

      You can use it straight away, just quote your membership number from the email.

      • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 11:47

        Realised that. Will flash the email on the phone tomorrow.
        But I won't be in Japan for a couple of months, so the card will arrive by then.
        Swiping the card looks more professional. Will go well with the namecards I printed for Japan.

      • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 21:23

        Its my first Gold Card ;)
        Once I received an impressive looking Queensland Confederation of Commerce and Industry credit card. It was 1 of less than 50 issued. (I paid the bills on it.) People were impressed when I used it, thinking I must be important!! It took a few years before they asked for it back.

  • arctan on 16/06/2013 - 22:53
    +3

    Do they open for 24 hours?
    I mean it's probably a good place to go if you miss out the last train and don't want to spend a fortune on taxi in Sydney (we all know how outrageous the taxi fee in Sydney is).

    • superbass on 16/06/2013 - 22:58
      +2

      don't think so. Most of these building need swipe pass to go inside after hours.
      So unless this membership card double act as swipe pass for 1600 location world wide, no 24 hours.

      • muncan on 16/06/2013 - 23:07
        +2

        Simply drop in and work; it's as easy as swiping your Businessworld membership card and sitting down.

        • arctan on 16/06/2013 - 23:18

      you dont have to wait for the card. Print out the email and show it to them.

      • hctan on 16/06/2013 - 23:15

        so before going into any of these business centres, do I go just go in with no booking or do i have to book meeting rooms?

        • easternculture on 16/06/2013 - 23:18
          +1

          from what i understand, using the facilities is FREE i.e Lounge Area, Kitchen (i.e. refreshments), and Wifi/Computer access.

          If you want to book a room, then you have to pay $$

  • Huntz on 17/06/2013 - 00:22

    Do I pay if I visit for a couple of hours?

    It says "10% discount on Meeting Rooms, Day Offices and Video conferencing at all Regus locations"

    • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 08:08
      +1

      That's like saying if I use Maccas etc free WiFi do I need to buy something? They'd like you to. Regus is renting short term office & meeting space - that's what is 10%off. Of course this is a membership card, usually sold or free to people most likely to buy their services. Enjoy the freebie :-)

      You can sit quietly in their reception areas & drink the free drinks, watch TV, read newspapers, use PCs & WiFi. But there are many places you can do at least some of those for free.

      Handy when I pop into the city for free meal deals etc. Good for city center quiet places to use free WiFi etc when travelling - I signed up.

    • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 13:09

      The only desciption is…
      T&C 1. As a Regus Group Businessworld member you will have access to all participating Regus Group centres worldwide during standard business working hours.
      These businesses are designed to offer office & business services when you are away from your office - so normal office hours.

      • Wade on 17/06/2013 - 13:16

        • INFIDEL on 17/06/2013 - 13:18

          Thats standard (office) working hours. Is that all centres, or just your location?
          Given they have video conferencing, you would think some may be available at times to suit other markets.

        • Wade on 17/06/2013 - 14:33

          I rang the local number, so I presume that those are the local hours. I might ring another location and check.
