A well cared for Cerato is OK. That mileage is averaging 25-30,000km per year which is more than double the national average, so whoever…

Is that legal? I thought cc companies couldn't offer you incentives to stay if you request to cancel.

It was a mistake on my part but it was also pretty crappy on their part. It was my first churn, virgin flyer, they give the bonus points in…

Made this mistake on my first churn, only got half the points. Be warned!

Westpac digital card means you can start spending immediately. I wish other banks did it

Likewise I've been looking at 2nd hand. I reckon the difficult will be that the sellers bought their recent Atto 3s a year or two ago at…

I appreciated the clarification - I confess I get deduction and rebate mixed up sometimes.

If I get an EV, I will be reimbursing home owners for the excess electricity used, so I believe I would qualify.

Thanks for doing the calculation, that's substantial. I believe that in the past you had to provide documentation to prove the charging…

I tried to book a test drive on the gold coast. No luck. The guy said they'd sold the only two they ever had, and no plans for a restock.…

Zero as a house sitter. Some people charge a daily or weekly fee once their reputation is well established in an area, but it's rarely…

Thanks for the story. That was entertaining and inspiring. As for the partner issue - a) I already have a partner, we house sit together;…

Thanks it's a fair comment and I'm not committed yet, that's why I started the thread. I'm looking at novated lease on a 2 year old EV and…

True I could have nowhere to stay...but it's never happened to me. I usually know where I'm staying at least 4-8 weeks in advance, usually…

Yes it's mostly pet sitting, people who want their pets to stay in their own home rather than a kennel etc. I sometimes get a house with…

Thanks that's a good call. A long high spec cable could be worth the investment.

Me neither. I don't trust it.

I'm surprised how few posts there are about house sitting on ozbargain. I was pushed into it by 2022 floods but I haven't looked back - why…

That had me laughing!

I haven't tried whirlpool yet!

Lol. That'd be the dream! No I currently make Nada house sitting, but I work remotely and with house sitting I don't pay rent. Fastest way…

Genuine question about the suitability of an EV for my lifestyle. My old ICE has been written off unexpectedly, I need a car asap. I had…

No good if you have an irregular pay cycle - it automatically declined my partner a sole trader because payment comes in erratically.

wow that was a very quick $45 profit

Does the referrer also have to make the $3200 transfer to get the reward? Or can I get my partner to create a new account and refer me, I…

Yeah it's a farce. With the mess Alan Joyce and the incompetent board made of Qantas, we're lucky the programme even exists at all! They…

True but it can take a few months to update accurately

Replying to my own post: No Citi have just changed the t&C's, Payall no longer counts towards minimum spend if you open the card now. OP…

I've never had Citi before. If I open this now, can I still use Payall for 1 month for the $12k spend, get 150k VFF points, and close? The…
