Mad Max on Collect 2,000 flybuys Points with $50 Online Spend and 2,000 Points with $100 Spend on Selected Items @ First Choice LiquorFor me, it almost always seems to take about 3 to 4 weeks which means it's hard to know if some are being missed (typically I probably take…

troy1976 commented on 'Notice of Intention to Leave' - How Soon Do You Feel Tenants Should Notify The Real Estate Agency at End of Lease Renewal?
A few thoughts on this. As per others, it depends on your State's tenant legislation how much notice you have to give (and some people are…
