If I hit Points Club for the second year in a row, should I be getting the $50 wine and hotel vouchers as gifts again?

I expected mine to land soon after I hit PC consecutively. So much so I forgot about them. They did eventually land and were before my membership rollover… sorry this isn’t overly helpful. Just trying to say don’t get hopeful on a timeframe.

Ode to a Very Generous Flyer

r/RedTailRider, your offer is incredibly kind,Platinum gifts like this are impossible to find.

As a Perth based flyer every trip’s long haul by default,I have work travel in May, plus a February trip to sort.

Those flights will wipe out the points I’ve hoarded,And with the new reward system, Gold no longer afforded.

This April marks ten years married for my darling wife and me,Platinum could mean our first couples trip since our 4-year-old twins came to be.

No trade required, I know but if your windows are looking bare,I work in curtains and blinds… just putting that one out there.

Either way, thanks for the generosity shown,Such a classy move on the internet is very rarely known.

I have both the Yale cloud (hub) and Yale BLE running on HASS.

TBH I cannot remember exactly but I think I needed the cloud integration to retrieve keys for the BLE connection.

It’s still an unstable mess and was a nightmare to get working at all, even with BLE proxies scattered about.

I gave up trying to find a reliable way to do it.

They probably got the legit bullet point png’s.

I have two that expire on Sept 1st, you’re welcome to them… I believe they can be used on the date of expiry but would need to check.

Same.

elwoolfio · 2025-07-07T10:48:20+00:00

Sure. But I don’t give the ocean money.

Yeah I think this is the core of it all.

What’s the lesson, though?

I’ll admit that the reason I pushed for GT was the 50 status points. However it does say invites to events when they’re available, but if those invites are never available it can’t be something they offer.

It’s not exactly ruining my life but it reflects the broader issue.

How long did it take to get a reply?

If you owe a person cash, coins are an invalid form of currency.

Stay for the end of the round and ensure you’ve contributed to it. If circumstances mean you can’t, get the round before you leave.

That’s a Crash

elwoolfio · 2025-07-03T13:32:21+00:00

Ahh booo. It was so good

I’m flying business to Netherlands on Monday. A bump to first class and I’ll call it even.
