You can't book with points on Amex's portal. But you can book, cancel by 11:59 PM and ergo have the pending charge cancelled within a week…

Where's the confusion? You pay for the full fare, but a $450 credit will show up on your statement yeah. And if doing the cancellation…

Yes, the T&C's state no refunds, but as long as it's cancelled by 11:59PM same day they do actually refund (the popup when cancelling will…

a) The initial deal when SpaceX donated the terminals was that it wasn't to be used in that fashion or in Crimea for fear of escalation,…

>US could cut Ukraine's access Yes, the US. The DoD uses Starshield now which it fully controls, not SpaceX.

Starlink is a game-changer for myself and my work which does a lot of regional jobs, no other sat service we used in the previous years…

More likely both track at 8% with the issues those who have tried this US-based deal are reporting.

Guess it was too good to be true. @_@

Unless shipping to a US address there's also the below which was posted above that I'd be wary of + the recent Ali reviews on the TCB US…

Ouch, yeah reading them now, guess it really is too good to be true to expect $1000 off on a $2000 item or the such.

The anniversary sale is listed under 'Deals', so guess it's ostensibly safe then, but for big ticket items still feels too good to be true.

Was looking to get a Xiaomi 15 Ultra, currently $2,232 AUD ($2,455 with GST) on Ali, which theoretically would come down to $1,276 then.…

Same, for starters assume one would need a US bank account to even withdraw the cashback?

*Mummy

Referral offer ended March 11, they're better off just signing up without referral for the 100K now which ends March 18.

Damn, that's a nice case, makes me wish I still played games and had a reason to upgrade from my 2013 Fractal R4 with i5-3570K and HD 7970.

Yeah that's the one nice feature of the Amex travel portal, but the least they can do as all return flights seem to have a $100~ surcharge…

Usually right after the first statement.

Can't see why it wouldn't. Seems to work for everyone at least in the first year, even before the fee is charged, so why not the second.…

The same pop-up that mentions it's free when you start the cancellation process also mentions 11:59pm as the free refund cutoff.

>at 11:30pm on Tuesday night 11/3/25 AEST? Considering any bookings need to be cancelled by 11:59 PM on the same day they're made to…

Surprised 10 has $15,000 in the bank with the constant bankruptcy fears.

Reminder, DO NOT REDEEM before giving the codes to the nice man on the phone to pay your fines/surprise tax debt.

Nothing to learn really, just find a good deal ([the AMEX 100,000 Qantas FF signup bonus is probably the best at…

Of course if one is purposely overspending just to meet a deal's spend requirements that's silly, but $3,000 - $6,000 over 3 - 4 months as…

*Update 2: Pending charge vanished after 5 days and the travel credit stayed applied, seem to be in the clear, 100,000 points for nothing…

Item 1 in the T&C's: >This offer is only available to new American Express Card Members. If you previously held a David Jones American…

Good to see a decent cashback deal after a drought of a year and a bit. Not sure about going with a CCP-controlled PRC state entity but…

>It will take 6-9 months to refinance - negating some of the rate saving if you're on a higher interest rate currently I've refinanced…
