Thanks TG,

Good deal but note that the US$50 expires at the end of November so you only have 26 days to use it.

oops, i'd better hurry up and use it.

With the low A$, it works out to A$70 off your booking, which is nice.

I believe this was previously raised in this thread:-

http://www.frequentflyer.com.au/comm...ing-13543.html (Free US$50 when joining HotelClub)


And I've made good use of this offer on multiple times

and even before that thread at http://www.frequentflyer.com.au/comm...ers-13146.html (hotelclub signup offers)

Does sound like it has become a bit of an offer that keeps getting extended!

Re: Hotel Club US$50 voucher for joining

It is a great offer....I'm running out of email addresses to keep on booking it through!

I'm starting to wonder if there really is that much margin in one off accom bookings. When I look at the hotelclub site for bookings without the discount, the site seems expensive compared to wotif or qantas.com.

Then I see them advertising on TV media. Seems that they don't have a compelling competitive advantage.

Re: Hotel Club US$50 voucher for joining

If you received 2 x $50 vouchers from signing up twice, could you put that $100 credit towards 1 single virgin booking ?

I got an interesting email from DreamClub/HotelClub the other day. Anyone else get the offer?

Clicked on the link and received US$30 in my HotelClub account. Will help to ease some of the stress caused by the sinking A$....

Have you actually had success with more than one email address? You use the same name and postal address and pay with the same credit card and they have accepted your booking? Have you actually had any of the hotel stays yet?

I will signup a friend but was also thinking of signing up with another email address for me but use my address in Brisbane. It will be a shame to stay in adjoining rooms and pay a different room rate.

This has been discussed in another thread. Don't think it would be a good idea to even attempt to redeem the $50 vouchers at the same hotel even on bookings of consecutive nights. You just don't want them to put 2 and 2 together....
