    This page seems to refer to a new joing fee. The annual fee is a different thing (that is avoided if you fly Air NZ). And I can't imagine that I will be flying AirNZ anytime soon....

    Well, Mrs LW just got her latest statement today and she now has a grand total of 0 Airpoints, having paid the fee for the last 2 years via deduction of Airpoints. she was just keeping it in case she flew with them again (but I successfully converted her to Oneworld).

    Do they close the account on 0 Airpoints (it actually went negative, but shows 0), or does it need to go negative again next year before they realise that it isn't being used. Or do we simply write to them, telling them to cancel??

    NZ Airpoints will autocancel. If you really want it closed you can tell them but no benefit in doing so.

    Excellent. One less program to have floating around and muddy the waters.

    Exactly - that's why I e-mailed them late last year requesting they close my account that had a grand total of MINUS 30 Airpoints. I received this cheery reply:

    Thank you for your email, and patience waiting for a reply.

    Your Airpoints account has now been processed as closed, as requested.

    Please note that we will be removing the Airpoints Dollars from your
    account, if at a later stage you wish to reactivate your account, the
    Airpoints Dollars will not be reloaded.
    You can imagine how disappointed I was to learn that! :roll:

    Why indeed would you want to re-start your account at -30 AirBucks??? Mick, are you seriously saying that's what they wrote to you....I can understand them saying that to a person who cancels their account with a positive balance..

    ...but then again, we are talking about Kiwi's here :roll: :wink: ...

    The silliness of form letters once again. Did I tell you about the promo's Qantas sends me from time to time that you need to be an Australian resident to be eligible?
