Is this going to be a noticeable change in size if I'm coming from a 38in Ultrawide?

So sick of this question; next time I'll counter with "What is Available?".

I suspect not but I will have burned through the $200 credit anyway by the second statement.

I'm fine with the wait as long as it eventually arrives. If it's 'safe' to switch away, I want to do it sooner than later because of the…

CashMachine10 on 20,000 Bonus Points or Double Earn Rate for 6 Month (60,000 Capped) with Signup of Select Credit Cards @ Velocity Frequent Flyer

Not for me. My spending is not high enough to benefit from the extra earn rate. The 20K bonus straight up is the easier option.

Dang. Only NAB cards are open to me at the moment. :( I currently hold the High Flyer card; I can assume the Flyer card is no go for me?
