You won't earn points or status if you credit these flights to Qantas.

recession1 commented on Bankwest Qantas World MasterCard: 80,000 Qantas Points within 7 Months (after $35,000 Spend in 5 Months), $320 Annual Fee
I can only imagine this being worthwhile if you were about to buy a car and had already churned through every other card available. That is…

Yeah there’s nothing special about this at all.

Jazza2400 on 10x Everyday Rewards Points on Vanilla Visa and Visa Birthday Gift Cards ($5.95/$7.95 Purchase Fees) @ Woolworths

And then the pain of using the gift cards to pay for stuff, unless you have something like a big tax bill to pay in one hit. Some people…

Damn, I guess I’ll be closing my Prestige sooner than I thought then.

The golden goose had to end at some point

recession1 commented on The Economist Digital and Print 1 Year Subscription A$399.50 (50% off) @ The Economist
I love their content but I have no idea how anyone gets through a magazine every week. I cancelled after my 50% off year as I only read…

I’ve just churned to mate and they’re garbage. I’m getting 30/10 on a 100/20 plan. I had no issue at all with AGL on the last churn.…

Jetkuma on Double Qantas Points or Status Credits (New Bookings Only, Activation Required) @ Qantas

I’d consider a $2k status run to get to platinum but there’s no way gold is worth that. Especially if you already have lounge access on…

mouski on Double Qantas Points or Status Credits (New Bookings Only, Activation Required) @ Qantas

Yes you get double status on rewards flights too

recession1 commented on Cathay Pacific Return to Seoul via HK: Perth fr $583, Sydney fr $735, Melbourne fr $741, Brisbane fr $754 @ flightfinderau
“Credit status and points earned to Qantas Frequent Flyer” You might want to check this. I don’t think discount economy on Cathay…

_tony on 28 Degrees Mastercard - $0 Monthly Fee for 12 Months (Normally $8 Per Month) @ Latitude Financial

Yeah I barely use mine and have nothing outstanding. I got the offer. No idea why they’d want to hold on to dormant cardholders though.

watwatwat on 28 Degrees Mastercard - $0 Monthly Fee for 12 Months (Normally $8 Per Month) @ Latitude Financial

That would be 180 degrees

SilentX on 28 Degrees Mastercard - $0 Monthly Fee for 12 Months (Normally $8 Per Month) @ Latitude Financial

Leave $5 on your balance at the end of the month and see if you get charged the insurance fee

recession1 commented on 28 Degrees Mastercard - $0 Monthly Fee for 12 Months (Normally $8 Per Month) @ Latitude Financial
Sounds like they’ve gone into damage control. There must have been thousands of cancellations.

recession1 commented on Receive ~150 Bonus Qantas Points for Completing Health, Car and Home Check-Ups on The Qantas Wellbeing App @ Qantas
I think there’s an additional 150 points if you sign up through a referral too.

recession1 commented on AmEx Qantas Business Rewards Card: 150,000 Bonus Qantas Points and $200 Credit with $6000 Min Spend in 3 Months, $450 Annual Fee
Do amex ask for anything to verify business turnover?

I’m having exactly the same issue with my bellroy duffle bag. Other than that it’s a fantastic product.

recession1 commented on [Refurb] Sony WH-1000XM5 Noise Cancelling Headphones $330.65 ($322.87 eBay Plus) Delivered @ Sony eBay
Cracking deal. But I can’t justify with my $147 Boses.

recession1 commented on [Prime] Bose QuietComfort Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones (Cypress Green) $312.55 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Nothing over $200 qualifies as a deal on these after JB did them for $147.

Cracking deal on the ultra. Well done to those who got it.

recession1 commented on All Nippon Airlines Tokyo & Osaka Return: Perth fr $924, Sydney fr $939 (Jul-Dec 24 & Feb-Mar 2025) @ flightfinderau
Be careful on those Perth to Osaka flights. You have 3 hours to transit from Narita to Haneda.
