For those wanting to use their points before cancelling, note the Velocity transfer promo of 10% more. Transfer this month and next month.…

Wow... I was wrong!! Sudden cut!

If they are writing to us in the next month or two, I imagine it may have several months left. I doubt they cancel it immediately, or am I…

Worked the next morning. Must be something about buying it late at night or a fault in their system at the time.

Tried twice with my AMEX today to buy several cards. Got the dreaded "Transaction failed, please contact customer service." I have the…

Same. $800?!?!?!? Reality check needed.

Have to love the way this works: make it cost more to earn miles, and devalue the ones you get. Double whammy. I've seen worse changes with…

This is my backup plan if (when!) the Vanilla Visa 10% off at Coles becomes unattainable. Great for ATO payments, health insurance, etc.

Says ~95 days on Cashrewards. Tracked in about 10-15 minutes. No email from Cashrewards nor Flexiroam. Showed the tracking on my CR account.

Is it possible to receive the physical SIM, activate it, and then convert to eSIM and still get cash back?

My guess is 'no'. You could always ask when you get into the lounge (on United FFN) and see if it will work next time. Just ask, "If I book…

Time to close. Queue the Benny Hill music for Latitude clowns.

I did the manual transfer option via Citi points and the 15% bonus came through three weeks ago.

Nice! I plan to be there. Don't mind waiting 10 or 15 mins, but I've seen an hour-long queue for a free felafel wrap once.

I'm still waiting too. My transfer was on 11th May according to Velocity. I also want to turn off auto-transfer, but will wait.

adding onto @littleburrito's comment, spending $1000 on cards with an AMEX Velocity card gives 1250 Velocity points. The cost for $1000 in…

This will free me up to churn some other card. I wouldn't mind if they added a $250 min spend on the card, but I guess not. Have a look at…

As others pointed out, there's no mention of the Velocity offer on the final T&Cs before you click submit on the final page. I did receive…

70k velocity for $149 fee is very good. Even the additional 30k velocity for another $149 has some value, and keeping the card for a second…

10K points can be turned into a few things. Option 1: 10k Citi = 10K flybuys = $50 off Coles shop. So by your example, spend $95 for $50…

Thanks mate. I did it shortly after seeing your message and the bonus tracking came about 15 minutes later.

Same. I don't think I'm going to risk it.

I believe an auto-transfer would be large (would sweep almost all of your flybuys in 1000-point blocks), provided you had a lot of flybuys…

Check your velocity and/or flybuys activity? Not sure how far back you can go.

How about delinking velocity account from Flybuys then relinking the same account again? By new account, I assume you mean a new velocity…

Chicken parm is somewhat different in the US compared to here and not really comparable. In addition, it's usually served with linguini or…

Yep. Each $250 card can do $249.50 for the ATO. 50 cents is the 0.2% fee.

Down to 10% now. Says it ends in 2 days.

Great movie, but it wasn’t shot in 4K in 1997 I don’t think. Yeah yeah, digital remastering, upscaling and filtering, yadda yadda.…
