It's (sadly) happening. Just got an email that the PayAll I had scheduled for 21 January is cancelled. The one for 14 January is still on…

Haven't listened to Flood in at least 10 years. It's all coming *ahem* flooding back now though... Thanks OP!

Don't see why you wouldn't wait a few months for the (resale-destroying) ~$10k+ price cuts that, if history of the facelifted Model 3 is…

Airline pricing is dynamic in that it'll be adjusted over time to get the airline to the load it wants at the point of the sale cycle. As a…

I think it needs to be before the statement is issued. Once the statement is issued, I found the previous Payall transactions were no…

On the website, go to 'Offers', then 'Credit Card' and there should be a Paylite option offering certain transactions to be paid over…

timhn, I'm in the same boat (FFFL and a $15k limit). I intend to do a Paylite instalment plan on my last Payall, and once that is paid off,…

I find the Pure Peninsula Honey you can get in Victorian Woolies to be pretty good.

If you've got a Premier card, there are four main options: gift cards, Flybuys, Velocity points and Krisflyer points. The worst option is…

I was umming and ahhing about transferring to Velocity (as I had transferred to Krisflyer a couple of months ago, and thought I may do so…

They recently reduced the minimum speed requirement on free FTTC upgrades from 250/25 to 100/20 so you should be eligible. Perhaps get in…

A smidge over $1k for JAL's excellent economy product is a bargain IMO. I'd only choose Jetstar if you're flying out of Brisbane or Cairns…

You won't be getting to LA for $1400 in business unless it's on points. 😉 (Not much on points - only PE from SYD-SCL on 11/2.)

FWIW, I have a Citi FFFL Premier (thanks OzB!), and churned both the NAB Rewards Platinum and NAB Qantas Platinum about 14 months ago and…

I'd cancelled mine too and had it conferred on me, willing or not, so you should probably see if they've given you this 'upgrade'...
12/12/2024 - 22:38
Mine was due to expire on 15 December, so was all set to renew at half price on 16 December. This two month extension's good, but I really…
