3:30 Amex Qantas Transfer Bonus and Targeted Qantas Transfer Bonus: Do they stack?
- Amex is running an untargeted 20% bonus
- People on DansDeals say they’re getting 20% on top of 20% for no apparent reason
- (Additionally?) My wife was targeted for a 15% transfer bonus on the Qantas side
- Do these stack?
- I transferred 1,000 Qantas miles from Amex
- This earned 1,200 upon arrival
- 4 days later a 20% bonus of 240 points posted
- If this sticks, it works out to a 1.44 transfer ratio
- If the additional 15% posts it would be a 1.62 transfer ratio
- Crazy one, but if all the bonuses posted it would be huge
- Devaluation coming? (LoyaltyLobby link)
- Yes, devaluation occurred (PointMeToThePlane link)
