How long for points to post from SYD Airport Tax and Duty Free

Just curious how long others have have had to wait for points to post from purchases at SYD Airport Tax and Duty Free.

In case you weren't aware, they are now a partner, earning 1 point per $ spent.

Re: How long for points to post from SYD Airport Tax and Duty Free

Made a purchase 21/10, points posted 1:1 on 31/10. I was pretty impressed - to be honest I wasn't expecting them to post at all!

Compare that with an on-board purchase made with Qantas on 18/8. Points posted 23/11!

Cheers,
- Febs.

Re: How long for points to post from SYD Airport Tax and Duty Free

I only realised that my purchases were eligible for QF FF points AFTER I had paid...but I was given a card to make a retrospective claim; I emailed a scanned receipt to marketing@thenuancegroup.com and got the points deposited about 9 days later..ahem, I got 157 points for a $57 purchase

Sure you didn't "accidentally" make a slight mark on the receipt that "could have" been confused as a 1?

Re: How long for points to post from SYD Airport Tax and Duty Free

Well, as tends to be the way, my points posted this morning!

I hadn't really missed them, but was curious how long it would take. Suprisingly fast actually!

11 days (17 Nov purchase, 28 Nov crediting).

Thanks for all of the replies

This morning my points posted from Saturday's purchase so looks like they are moving in the right direction.

This reminds me that I must remember to claim for points in the future

Looks like they've moved even further.

Purchased DF at SYD DFS (inbound) at about 8:45am...points had already posted when I checked at 10:45am! Even gave me 6 more QFF points than I should have earned, .

Merry Christmas all.
