You know what else is FBT exempt? A normal car loan. FBTs only exist for novated leases, so in the context of this discussion it's…

I love when people are so confidently wrong.

Don't have much more to add other than consider your profession and its flexibility. I work from home full time now, and it's opened my…

Zero. It's to make it seem like a better deal.

They do if you do you research/know your available tariffs then filter proper on the EMEA site. You can also request a tariff change…

Well played sir!

Except their held ticket is for an event in the past. So... just suck up the mistake and buy the ticket that you actually need.
