bozbargain replied to  SBOB on Westpac Altitude Black Mastercard/AmEx (80k & 40k QFF Points) - $0 Annual Fee First Year
See above. Just a cheap offset for just over a dollar. An earlier attempt <$1 failed to trigger the passes.

bozbargain commented on Earn up to 10,000 Virgin Velocity Points by Activating and Earning with 3 or More Velocity Partners
This must be one of the more confusing promos I've come across. The word 'partner' doesn't help here either. How is the Velocity eStore...

Is that similar to the Qantas Mall or Cashrewards where you start your journey with Velocity, click on the eBay link and your purchase gets...

bozbargain replied to  endolphin on [QLD, NSW, VIC] 12x $1 Credit for Use on Lime Electric Scooters @ Lime
They’re very different services. I think the sweet spot for these eBikes is for trips under 10 mins (max $4.50) where grabbing one will...

bozbargain commented on [QLD, NSW, VIC] 12x $1 Credit for Use on Lime Electric Scooters @ Lime
The app needs to be improved though. Weird references to £ and it’s hard to find out the per minute price. I thought it was 15c as in...

Lime eBikes are great for the inner city for short distances. Love the phone mounts and baskets as well, very clever! 5 mins comes to $2.50...

You don't have to spend $100 in one go though to get the $15 credit.

bozbargain replied to  superforever on Telstra Broadband - No Contract Plans Now Have Setup Fees Waived (Plus a Free Google Home Mini if You Signup before Dec 25th)

bozbargain commented on [Registration Capped] AmEx Statement Credit: Flight Centre - Spend $500, Get $100 (In-Store & Online)
Can flight centre help with redeeming freq flyer points, where you pay the taxes/surcharges through them instead of directly to eg Qantas?

bozbargain replied to  cubeh on Apple Watch Series 3 - 38mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band - GPS $398 ($348 with AmEx Cashback) @ Harvey Norman

bozbargain replied to  DaTa on [NSW] AmEx Statement Credit: Harris Farm (Spend $120, Get $40 Back)
Is what any good? A statement credit? Or are you asking if HF is good for groceries (my answer to that: they're great)?

Oops - sorry! Mine from 2 weeks ago said more or less the same but was for an instant 3x $5 discount.

bozbargain replied to  josho9 on Uber: $5 off Your Next 3 Rides
I think it's the exact same promo. It's 'when you take', not 'after you take'. :-)
