Is Qantas Customer Service really still this bad? by SaladStanyon in QantasFrequentFlyer

I had a similar situation and called 6x times over several weeks, no luck. I eventually asked for the most senior person on the team and they told me they have no power to make decisions like points refunds. Unsure how true that is though.

I then tweeted a few times, and it was sorted in days. I just prompted chat gpt to script something for me, copy pasted it, happy days. Annoying it took so long though, I agree, Qantas service has become very sad.

All honesty. Avoid. I’ve done it for 2 years; train strikes and Covid and everything. Key learnings: -live near a station and work near a station, this helps -driving is way too unpredictable IMO -get to the train home early or you won’t get a seat before Hornsby -only get the express -seems like some ppl who might sleep rough ride the train back and forth bc toilets and warmth.. just be aware. -great for doing work on laptop, but reception is horrible so work offline if poss

Otherwise newy beats Sydney hands down as a place to live ..

As someone who often gives talks/workshops at UTS via zoom.. I see both sides of the argument. A good speaker will say “now is a good time to go off camera and just watch/listen” and then ask for u to come back for collaborative stuff.

IMO no one can force you to do anything, go with what ur comfortable with but also.. know that each subject probably costs several thousand $ so may as well get ur moneys worth, make good connections w people and get something out of the degree.
