    whats the actual money value for 500 Qantas pts???

      • team teri on 08/02/2016 - 15:24
        +23

        There is a difference between what Qantas charge for the points and what they are worth. $5 is the more likely scenario.

      • Samsungnote10 on 08/02/2016 - 15:25
        +4

        Thats what you have to pay for them!

        Realistically. 0.5c to 1.5c for most things

        I got 3c when i used them for business class flights

    • miarn on 08/02/2016 - 15:29

      Depends what you use them for, but probably somewhere around $5-$10.

    • dealspider on 08/02/2016 - 15:50

      I had the "Auto Reward" feature enabled for sometime, for which they would deduct 3000 points just for a $20 Woolworth Gift card.

  • bym on 08/02/2016 - 15:20

    It's interesting the terms state "Only 1 transaction per customer will be eligible for 500 bonus Qantas Points." I wonder if it's per Kogan customer or tied to a FF number. Otherwise make multiple email accounts with forward.cat and profit.

    • miarn on 08/02/2016 - 15:22
      +1

      Have to link Kogan account to QFF account, so probably both.

  • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 15:23

    Can you have multiple account with the same QFF?

  • battler on 08/02/2016 - 15:25

    LOL, cable "Leaves warehouse in 3-4 weeks"
    "After your item is shipped, please allow another 3-5 business days for metro delivery or 4-7 days for regional areas."

    Looks to be targeted. Nothing in the public domain that discloses this offer.

  • Turd on 08/02/2016 - 15:29

    Post link to T&C's from kogan website

    • neil on 08/02/2016 - 15:35

      Here but no mention of 500 points. Only in the email.

      • Turd on 08/02/2016 - 15:35

        That's what I thought, may be targeted.

        • neil on 08/02/2016 - 15:37

          My interpretation is not targeted.

          To earn Qantas Points, Qantas Frequent Flyer members must create a Kogan.com account, add their Qantas Frequent Flyer membership number to it and purchase eligible products.

          E.G. Anyone can create an account. This was an email from Kogan not Qantas.

        • Turd on 08/02/2016 - 15:39

          @neil: I see I see. Someone could always chat to them online to confirm. But not bad deal if true

          @Turd:

          Have done so. Open to anyone as long as they have Qantas FF and Kogan account.

  • jtc13 on 08/02/2016 - 15:30

    $3.57 of points for 500 points based on their hotel rate being 14000 points for $100 off a hotel stay.

    +2.57 for each cable purchased if it works. but the biggest problem I find now is how to use the points. Can never use them when I want to so have moved away from QFF points.

    • Turd on 08/02/2016 - 15:30

      You me too, I have 233k points, dunno what to do. :|

      • miarn on 08/02/2016 - 15:32

        They sell for around 1c a point if you can be bothered and are willing to take the (slight) risk.

        • cornucopia on 08/02/2016 - 15:53

          Sell? To whom and how??

        • miarn on 08/02/2016 - 15:56
          +1

          @cornucopia: people sell them in OzB classifieds regularly. Just put them through as a regular transfer I think (not that I've done it).

          @magicmoose:
          i did not know that. i want to offload 100k points and was wondering what the best way to do that would be.

        Do a bit of travelling? I have about 10k now and have been trying to find ways to build enough to get a flight 'there' as well as 'back' :)

        • team teri on 08/02/2016 - 15:38
          +2

          Best way to get points is to sign up for some of the credit cards that give 40k - 60k points bonus.

        • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 15:40

          Yeap sign up for the Amex Platinum Business Card for a whopping 150k points. Only drawback is the $1500pa

        • Turd on 08/02/2016 - 15:48

          @nightelves: Is that even worth it?

        • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 15:53

          @team teri:

          Yeap unfortnuately I'm already with ANZ so I can't get it. But would be interesting if I can get a second Amex card if I already have their Qantas premium cc.

        • cornucopia on 08/02/2016 - 15:54

          @nightelves: So You're effectively paying retail for the points .. :-( .. !!

        Fly!

        I flew 1st class on Emirates to London on my QFF points

        Very nice it was too on the A380 - having a shower at 38000ft is an experience

        The Emirates A380 1st class lounge in Dubai is mindblowing

        • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 15:55

          How many points did you have to fork out for that?

      Now I understand why you named yourself that.

  • tqf8h on 08/02/2016 - 15:50

    I got an email too, it's most likely targeted. I already had my QFF linked to Kogan anyway and I have earned a few points in the past. Takes a very long time for the points to hit your account though

  • iSamurai on 08/02/2016 - 15:51

    lol, I was actually looking for a micro USB cable. Got one on ebay a few days ago… oh well.

    Hello jim. Welcome to Kogan.com.
    How may I help you?
    jim
    Hi , Im seeing a post on a bargain website that states you are giving 500 Qantas FF points for a purchase - true or false???
    Gail
    Yes, that is correct. We are offering a bonus 500 Qantas Points with ANY Purchase.
    jim
    so as long as my card is registered I get 500 points for a purchase? Read
    Gail
    As long as you have saved your Frequent Flyer number to your Kogan account and signed in before checking out, you will receive the 500 bonus points.

    • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 15:57
      -3

      So in essence you can purchase multiple times to receive the bonus points?

      • WonderboyJim on 08/02/2016 - 15:58

        Noooo , T&C says … Only 1 transaction per customer will be eligible for 500 bonus Qantas Points.

        • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 16:01

          What about is you get your friends to use your QFF number? Do you get credited those points?

        • henrikoez on 08/02/2016 - 16:03

          @nightelves: your name details has to be the same on both Kogan and QFF accounts

      • Peck on 08/02/2016 - 17:07

        Well you will get at least 1 QFF Point. I see on Kogan web site "Earn Qantas Points Earn 1 point per $1"

  • jabroni on 08/02/2016 - 16:11

    so i see kogan are also giving away qff points per dollar as well, does this mean you get 2x the points if you pay with a ff credit card? [1 point from kogan and 1 point from the issuer]

    • Turd on 08/02/2016 - 16:12

      Yes obviously. 500 from kogan and whatever reward point your bank credit card gives you, doesnt mean it is QFF.

  • zzyss on 08/02/2016 - 16:29

    LOL, their little ticker that shows what products are being bought is just streaming the USB cable. Didn't even have to search for it.

    Thanks OP. Maximised my points by paying with my Amex. So, in total 503 points for me :-)

  • nightelves on 08/02/2016 - 16:54

    Just bought it as well

  • Coops1 on 08/02/2016 - 17:29
    +2

    Lol, just lol…..the scrolling recent sales of $1 USB's

    "People in Australia have just bought 5000 Micro USB cables, "costing" Kogan 2.5m QFF points"….and rising

    • lbft on 08/02/2016 - 18:27

      And that's 5000 people with their details stored on Kogan's website ready and waiting for their next purchase, a lot of them subscribed to mailing lists advertising products, and all of them connected to QFF accounts proving to Qantas that the relationship is worthwhile, potentially meaning more free advertising to QFF customers.

      There's a reason the $1 price is mentioned in the email, and why they didn't discourage it when it was posted on OzBargain, and why the page linked from the QFF points banner in the email goes to a page which has the $1 cable in the fourth row. This is great advertising for them.

      • Coops1 on 08/02/2016 - 19:05

        Agree, everybody ends up benefiting.

  • dwhes on 08/02/2016 - 17:31

    Basically $5 worth of points for a $1 purchase. Not bad. Spare usb cable never hurts as well.

    • simprosimple on 09/02/2016 - 08:52

      just $3.33 worth of points
      (750 points can redeem $5)

      • dwhes on 09/02/2016 - 18:33

        I'm referring to the going rate for selling/buying Qantas points on here of around 1c per point.

  • 50cent on 08/02/2016 - 18:22

    Looking on the website and doesnt look like you can get anything for 500 points https://store.qantas.com/PostLogin.a2

    • feihong on 08/02/2016 - 18:47

      That's true, 500 points on its own don't mean much. As people have mentioned, you get the best bang for your buck with QFF points when you use them for flight upgrade or reward flights, so it's better to accumulate slowly to say 10,000 points when you can redeem one way flight from Melbourne to Sydney, for example.

      • muncan on 08/02/2016 - 19:04

        Or, buy something from their website for $9,500 and boom you'll have 10,000 points to redeem that one way free flight to Melbourne (plus taxes and fees).
