    Thanks OP!

    Hmm I wonder how they know your origin & destination?
    Considering they don’t seem to know if you buy gift cards with other promotions.

    • UberIsCool on 24/10/2019 - 06:56

      Thinking same thing. Qantas wouldn’t relay destination data to Amex

      • shrewdster on 24/10/2019 - 07:55

        They probably won't relay destination information but I'm assuming they'll likely flag them and just provide a list of customers who meet the criteria.

        • UberIsCool on 24/10/2019 - 08:02

          I’ve been using these QF offers for industry travel for the last 5 years and it works so be interesting to see if this offer works also

    • vikvance on 24/10/2019 - 07:44

      The information must be exchanged somehow between Qantas and Amex. It wouldn't be too hard to set it up.

      Personally, I wouldn't gamble on trying to use it for some other destination & still expect the cashback.

      • UrMumsOnlyFan on 24/10/2019 - 09:05

        It wouldn't be gambling on other destinations, it'd be gambling on whether gift voucher(s) work.

        I suspect they would … but $800 is above my gambling budget.

      They know, take a look at my recent statement I booked a ticket on Qantas website, it even showed the passenger name, ticket number and booking ref:

        Was that on a Qantas branded AMEX?

        I remember when I had a DJ AMEX, my AMEX statement showed details of the purchases I made at DJs, but not for other retailers.

        All my transactions say the following:

    • ronnknee on 24/10/2019 - 09:17

      Booking transactions on my Amex cards show the ticket details. So yes, this information is known.

  • vetopower on 24/10/2019 - 07:59

    This year's offer is absolutely terrible.

    Usually the annual AMEX Qantas offer is something like spend $500, get $150 back.

    This year you need to purchase a direct return SYD-SIN/NAN/LAX flight. Even worse, no connections. What a way to stick the middle finger up to people not living in Sydney!

  • andshebakes on 24/10/2019 - 08:43

    Is there a way to ‘unsave’ an offer? I saved this one before reading the details, which are so specific and not relevant for me. Leaving SYD only but I’m in Brisbane. Don’t want to stop someone else from missing out.

    • UberIsCool on 24/10/2019 - 09:38
      +1

      Doubt many will use this one given how specific it is but i have wanted to unsave from previous offers

      • UrMumsOnlyFan on 24/10/2019 - 21:36

        I didn't think it'd hit the 20,000 card limit but:-

        Unfortunately the maximum number of Card Members have already enrolled in this offer. Please visit https://global.americanexpress.com/offers/eligible for other fabulous offers.

        • UberIsCool on 24/10/2019 - 21:43

          🥧 this is humble…

          • vetopower on 25/10/2019 - 06:28

            @UberIsCool: It’s going to be one of the least used offers. I’m certain plenty of people would have signed up, but will not be able to make use of it given the onerous restrictions.

    • Mr BoMBAStiG on 24/10/2019 - 09:42

      Cancel card, move house, revoke citizenship, move country, change gender, train to be astronaut, move to ISS, make friends with Elon, change name, move to Mars. Not in that order necessarily.

      • andshebakes on 24/10/2019 - 10:15

        I do love the ozbargain sense of humour. Definitely makes it a fun read ;)

          Well, we heard often some banks still sends cards to deceased person, so even dying might not work :(

          • DrRalph on 24/10/2019 - 11:34

            @hanofee: 'often'. Unlikely.

            Sending unsolicited credit cards breaches the ACL.

      • [Deactivated] on 24/10/2019 - 14:01

        You forgot gender reassignment surgery.

        I forgot that step and it didn't work.
        btw Elon smells like apricots, even though he doesn't eat them

  • fseng on 24/10/2019 - 13:27

    Do you have to spend >$800 on a single ticket ? Or if I buy 2 tickets in one transaction say$500 each then it qualifies ？

    • vetopower on 24/10/2019 - 14:06

      How are you planning on getting a return flight on Qantas from Sydney to Singapore, Nadi or Los Angeles without spending $800?

      • fseng on 24/10/2019 - 15:26

        I checked for May next year. Return economy is 700 something to sin.

      • Mixinitup on 24/10/2019 - 15:58

        Is there an exclusion for reward point bookings to these places, $800 could be taxed surcharges for 4

      • Numlock on 24/10/2019 - 16:01

        With classic rewards (Points+pay) or just book in advance for Singapore.

        LA is a rip off these days.

  • gccmelb on 24/10/2019 - 15:57

    Another Sydney Centric by AMEX and Qantas. Who would have guessed.

  • novicenow on 24/10/2019 - 17:45

    Can’t use this offer on connections via Singapore, right?

    • vetopower on 24/10/2019 - 18:24
      +1

      No connections allowed.

      • novicenow on 24/10/2019 - 18:34

        Thanks.

        I just got the email and indeed it says “You’ll receive $150 back when you book a direct return trip ticket on any of the 3 routes below and spend $800 or more, in one or more transactions with qantas.com by 22 December 2019.”

        The key word being DIRECT.

        😕

  • MrHyde on 24/10/2019 - 19:39

    Terrible deal. I was going to book flights from MEL to SIN return today and saw this and then saw that it is return from SYD only.

    Had a look at MEL - SYD return and then SYD - SIN return and that is just not worth it, money wise or time wise.

    In the end, I booked through Amex Travel and used my $450 credit instead. Surprisingly the Amex travel price was identical to the Qantas website; with the added benefit that I did not have to pay the Qantas credit card surcharge.

    • UberIsCool on 25/10/2019 - 13:57

      Nice tip about the surcharge

    Sad to see this offer has gone downhill so much, from all these restrictions. Real shame.

  • AndyRates on 25/11/2019 - 15:39

    Did anyone have luck getting the $150 cashback by not flying to those 3 destinations?

    • vetopower on 25/11/2019 - 23:17
      +3

      No. I bought a flight to another destination, didn't get the cash back.
