    A FYI to Instant Pot buyers. Received the Vortex airfryer instead of the Instant Pot. There may be similar issues to last year where orders are being mixed up/ delivered incorrectly.

    I do the same, so I understand where you're coming from. I normally provide them with stamped statements for my savings pocket as well as fixed deposit accounts. This normally shows more than enough to satisfy the requirements. The issue with global accounts is that you cannot generate a...

    I would suggest giving them 3 months bank statements in rands, historically my visa applications don't even accept my global card statement, and also if you don't use the card often, getting a statement is tricky which shows the balance, as it usually shows transaction history only, not a...

    I suggest getting the global card. Try and ask them to speed up delivery, or opt to collect from a branch which may speed the process up. Lounge key is extremely valuable. Your $20 or similar charge for having the card will pay itself off with one visit to one lounge. You don't get access to...

    Are you with your SO or is she alone? I've only ever used mine with my wife while travelling together.

    On our previous trip, my wife and I were allowed free access to the Slow International lounge at OR (We’re both on Premier), after purchasing flights from the ebucks travel desk. Global card lounge key access is only permitted internationally. I stand to be corrected but you can purchase access...

    Something to remember on the flight discounts, in some cases the more expensive the flight, the higher the base fare (the higher the discount), and vice versa. So sometimes you may see an overall cheaper flight without a discount, but the discounted flight after discount may work out cheaper in...

    I always find a vast difference in offering between the website and the app. The site usually has a lot more items loaded in a specific category, as opposed to the app.

    It would not show up as a separate line on your statement. The best way is to login to your ebucks account, go to your calculator, and you will be able to see what portion of ebucks for the month was earned from Engen.

    25% off over 24 months vs 40% once off. I guess it will depend on what you deem is better for you. Might give you some added ebucks to splurge on something else :)

    The issue here is that the staff were trained on this a few months ago, and probably forgot how to do it. Had a similar issue at The Parks. Just ask them to enter the Wicode.

    This is what I usually do. Have a few destinations in mind, and search for your dates (try varying you dates by -3/+3 to reveal some airlines which you didn't pick up initially).

    It would be very hard for them to allocate your refund to Nov when the refund was done in Dec. I've had this issue before. I've also noted nowadays that where refunds from superbalist and some other online retailers would back date the refund to the date of the initial transaction, it's now when...
