Re: The New Altitude Platinum Card from Westpac

I actually was offered this card, but then I completely cancelled it (I had a blue Altitute before). Mainly 2 reasons:

1: MasterCard is $1 = 0.5 QF point

2: It can only convert to QF or AirBucks. The real AmEx from AmEx converts to VS which is a large discount comparing with the points required to fly QF or NZ e.g. SYD <-> LHR cattle class needs 128000 QF pts, or 105000 with VS
