That would depend on the bank and/or reporting agency, however I know some people that get new CC's every 12-24 months and seem to be OK so...

Can somebody who has completed the application let me know what proof of income documentation they require?

LoungeLizard replied to  knobbs on 140,000 Points for Referee (After $3000 spend in 90 days), 30,000 for Referrer @ Citi Rewards Platinum Credit Card
Log into citbank account, select Rewards -> Redeem Now -> Travel -> Points Transfer. Best to wait for bonus times before transferring.

You're just a ray of sunshine, aren't you? Since it's a targeted offered it never "became active" for me.

Depends on what you want it for. If it's only for FTA TV and you sit fairly close the old Sony will be OK. If you ever plan on connecting...

Good prices (for these models) but none of them are actually good value.

LoungeLizard replied to  RSmith on Panasonic 3 Blade ES-ST29 Electric Shaver $99.95 (Was $289.95) 65% off @ Shaver Shop
No electric shaver shaves closer than a razor. However they come close and is far more convenient/quicker (for me anyway)

Yeah saw that as well, but not sure who to believe. I want to get this and install 32GB + 1TB SSD I have already (for running VMs)

Are you sure max is 32GB. Manual linked above says 16GB?

LoungeLizard commented on 10 Night Sydney to Auckland Cruise on The Norwegian Jewel (Jan 2020) Starting $1317pp Twin Share Inc Drink Package @ Ozcruising
$120 pppn for an interior cabin is not great value. Drinks package only worth it if you're a heavy drinker.

LoungeLizard commented on BUPA Health Insurance - up to 120,000 Velocity Points (Couple/Family) or 60,000 Velocity Points (Single) - New Customers Only
Note that it's "up to" 60,000/120,000 points. To get that you need ultimate cover = $$$. For lower end plans not really worth the hassle...

LoungeLizard replied to  BennyHe2018 on LG 31.5" MP58 Full HD IPS Monitor 32MP58HQ for $277 @ Harvey Norman
Definitely is for me. Even on a 27" monitor 1080p looks grainy at normal viewing distances.
