What are the chances that you can contact them to see if you’re eligible if you’ve just signed up to your first Qantas points earning CC in the last few weeks? Are they lenient like that?
I’ve heard of people earning the bonus points despite having applied just before the promotion start so there’s a chance you could still receive them anyway.
