Last year (2001)at christmas I bought over $300 at a promotion at a department store to receive 5000 fly buys points. The promotion was for that day and it was communicated over the loudspeaker at the store.
In the new year I checked on the Fly Buys statement and didnt receive the points. Well the bottom line is the card was not scanned properly at the register. I also did not check the receipt ( fly buys has to be somewhere on the bottom of the receipt) , I didnt know this. Bottom line the Credit Card Issuer compensated me for the points , Just check the receipt.

Or better stilll, pay with AMEX, ANZQ Visa or Citibank cards, do a balance transfer to another card and forget about the useless FlyBuys points..get double (or triple) FF points using a simple trick!
If you can be bothered with Fly Buys (although I must admit the Tram Car Restraunt in Melb is a good reward) you definately need to keep receipts. The bonus offers have a habit of getting "misplaced" all too often.
As a scheme though, it's really about as useful as all my Global Rewards points. i.e. it does not compare to anything else in a favourable light.
Don't bother posting anymore mate. I've reported you to the admins of the forum for spamming and flaming. No one wants your stupid 'be platinum' comments because you're not adding anything constructive.
If you've not got anything constructive to add, don't bother posting here and go find another forum to annoy.
