I used Revolut over the course of a few years quite extensively as their exchange rate was almost identical to the wholesale mid market…
sitdowndisco replied to sicarius on Sony Alpha A6700 Mirrorless Camera (Body Only) $1699.15 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi
a6700 absolutely destroys the a7iii for everyone except those looking for a camera with very specific specifications... namely low light.…
I used GoMoWorld in Mexico recently and they were very poor. They seem to be on some secondary network where they don’t get full…
sitdowndisco commented on Revolut 1-Yr Premium $9.99/M (NordVPN, Tinder Plus, Sleep Cycle, Picsart Subscriptions), 1-Yr Metal $24.99/M (10 Subs) @ Revolut
I've been using revolut for a few years now and I'm finding the exchange rates to be pretty much the same as wise these days. When I first…
sitdowndisco commented on Booking.com: Upsized 12% Cashback on Accomodation / Hotels (Was 5.5%) via Shopback
You really need to check in a logged out account, an account with genius on it, also clicking through shopback vs not clicking through…
sitdowndisco commented on AmEx Statement Credit: Get 20% Back at Participating Restaurants ($25 Cap Per Card) @ American Express Delicious Month Out
Wow, so poor. $25 cash back when people are paying multiple hundreds of dollars per year to have their cards.
sitdowndisco commented on JAL Domestic Flight from Hiroshima to Tokyo
I didn’t need to show any proof at any time. Flew domestically a few times with JAL just a couple of weeks ago using the old cheap…
sitdowndisco commented on 1 Hour and 40 Minutes Connecting Flights
Have been through customs/immigration in 30 min a few times. But it’s also taken me 2 hr at other times. For me, the biggest X factor is…
sitdowndisco commented on YouTube Premium: Individual TRY ₺29.99 (~A$2.30), Family TRY ₺59.99 (~A$4.60) @ YouTube Turkey (VPN Required to Sign Up)
Not sure if I stumbled on something better than what everyone else got or I stuffed up somehow. I got mine through Pakistan. UrbanVPN ->…
sitdowndisco replied to ChatCPT on Etihad Return to Rome: Sydney fr $1444, Melbourne fr $1316 (30kg Luggage, Fly Oct-Nov 2023) @ Flightfinderau
Been flying Qatar a lot in the past year. They are rubbish. JAL, Cathay and Qantas have all been preferable for me.
sitdowndisco commented on Cheapest Way from SYD to Jakarta?
Generally via Singapore these days on one of the lowest class flights available - scoot for 8 hours. Truly awful. And it’s going to cost…
sitdowndisco replied to langitbiru on 25% off Indonesian (Local) XL or Telkomsel SIM Cards – Bali or Jakarta Airport Pick-up from $14.25 @ TravelKon
Only free if your phone is worth less than US$500, otherwise the imei unlock costs about 40% of the value of the phone above US$500. For…
sitdowndisco replied to runamuck on [AmEx] 10% off Flights Bookings with Payment by American Express @ Etihad Airways
You flown Qatar recently? I use them a lot and they are trash compared to Cathay and JAL. Not sure about Etihad/Emirates though.
sitdowndisco commented on [Registrations Capped] AmEx Statement Credit - Spend $500, Get $100 Back @ Qantas Hotels
I usual find qantas to be uncompetitive when it comes to hotels, but if there is a 20% discount, they'd be definitely worth a look.
sitdowndisco replied to VantageXL on Optus Month-to-Month 150GB, 5GB International Roaming, Unlimited Text & Calls - $79 Per Month, Bonus 20,000 Qantas Points
The Orang Poland deal isn't bad even if you pay full price. Something like $24 from memory and the app and setup process was easy. The only…
sitdowndisco commented on AmEx Travel Credits - Anyone Used More than One for a Single Booking? and Is AmEx Becoming Rubbish?
I had 2 x $450 Qantas credits that I thought could only be used one at a time. Interestingly, when I called them and asked, the lady on the…
sitdowndisco commented on 28 Degrees Global Platinum Mastercard - Free Global Data Roaming Offer @ Mastercard X Flexiroam
For me this is a net negative. For anyone who travels a bit, the boingo access is a massive cost saving. Having fast free wifi inflight on…
sitdowndisco replied to Owgasm on Telstra 28-Day $30 Pre-Paid Plan for $10 When Activated as eSIM (New eSIM Customers Only) @ Telstra
No physical sim required. Just scan a QR code and a new sim is loaded onto the phone. You can turn it on and off as you like which means…
sitdowndisco commented on Scoot One Way: London $452 ($383 with Hack), Berlin, Germany $466 [Sep - Nov] @ Beat That Flight
Scoot is my least favourite airline. Absolutely miserable on board and only really worth it if you’ve got no money or the alternatives…
sitdowndisco commented on Is AmEx Shop Small Gone Forever ?
Shop small as it was is gone. It does still exist in a very limited (shoddy) format for those who are targeted. Shop Small is not a reason…
sitdowndisco commented on Apple MacBook Pro (14" M1 Pro Chip 8‑Core CPU 14‑Core GPU 16GB RAM 512GB SSD) - Space Grey & Silver $2697 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Anyone know if Apple is able to price match online?
sitdowndisco commented on American Express Shop Small - Spend $50 or More, Get $5 Back, up to 4 Times
Yeah this is a bad deal for those who got it. I didn’t get it on either of my cards.
sitdowndisco commented on Return Flights to Tokyo with a 1 Week Stopover in Fiji. Dep Brisbane $824, Melbourne $868, Sydney $868 on Fiji Airways @ IWTF
Been looking at going to Fiji recently. If you’re looking for a bargain, avoid Fiji at all costs. Accommodation costs are eye-wateringly…
sitdowndisco commented on Amex travel bookings
I've been having problems as well and I don't have a solution for you. My travel credit disappeared, I'm overseas and I have no way of…
It's definitely something to look out for. It often happens, but not always. But what it does for me is make me trawl other sites for…
sitdowndisco commented on What card to use for this payment?
Revolut. They use the mid market rate rather than the visa/mastercard rate (which is already very good). Be sure to sign up to Revolut…
sitdowndisco commented on HEYMIX 66W 3-Port GaN Charger + 100W PD Cable + AU Adapter $54.99 Delivered @ HEYMIX Amazon AU
This is a pretty good charger. Only thing I would note is that as soon as you plug in a cable to any of the ports, it immediately drops the…
You could call, but what if they say they do, but they don’t. Just like the website.
sitdowndisco replied to Flexiroam on 80% off Flexiroam Global Data Plans + Free Travel SIM Starter Kit with Every Order @ Travels.im
Yes, I followed all the instructions and the esim is linked to the app. After about 10 minutes it changed to active in the app, but the…
sitdowndisco commented on 80% off Flexiroam Global Data Plans + Free Travel SIM Starter Kit with Every Order @ Travels.im
I just bought a couple of esim and they won't activate despite other esims having no problem. Do you guys have a solution?
