It is definitely a return flight though, right? e.g. PER-SYD-PER
It is return, but where you can go is determined by the origin of the flight. So if your flights orginate in Perth, you can do PER-SYD-PER, but if you originate in SYD, you cannot do SYD-PER-SYD

Yep, that's right
What's the bet that AMEX are happy to offer PER based residents a lower rating card now, rather than this one.... when you apply?
I've redeemed a few (3) of these, and each time FF points were credited.
That said, for the last redemption, I was able to book into a different class simply by paying the fare difference between O and Q (no rebooking fee), so that might have been why FF points were awarded - maybe QANTAS thought it was a regular Q fare.

Even on an amex booked non upgraded flight i have received QFF points, i have never not received QFF points when using a free flight.

Don't give them any ideas . In any case, given the number of these flights they 'giveaway', I am sure they are getting them at some sort of discount - not that anything I saw was giving away the price! And to get that discount, Qantas would probably expect a certain number of flights to be bought, which requires a certain number of cards to be out and about. So hopefully, they will do what they can to maintain the number of cards on offer they will probably have contracted to.

I was quick to take up this offer when the Platinum Credit Card was first released FOC to Plat Charge Card members. I booked as soon as eligible (after first month's statement) and I recall being able to look up the pricing in Qantas' "Manage your booking" after adding in my frequent flyer number. The price displayed (fare component) was exactly 10% below the O class fare component (ie. excluding taxes). The next time I booked (a year later) I noticed that the ability to look up the price was removed.
