Can only enter 3 of my 10 programmes – shouldn’t testers have better access ?

Your privacy page is blank (or at least, it is on my screen): https://nanvero.com/privacy For example what do you as the app owner see when people share their points balances, plans, memberships etc? Nice looking website – has a welcoming feel to it somehow.

Is there a limit to how many Amex cards you can have?

Can I just clarify something about the present Amex BAPP offer of a maximum of 2500 TP’s in 3 stages the first being paid when a total of £15k is spent. I believe the original email inviting registration for the offer came out on 1/2/2926 and the qualifying spend has to be completed by 1/2/2027 – is the start of the collection date 1/4/2026 or is it the anniversary date of the primary cardholder such as 15/12/25? Thanks in advance for any replies.

I enjoyed Kerala last year for a relaxing few days – there really arent many sites to see, found the backwater cruise disappointing Not sure I would relegate Sri Lanka to a side trip either I did the golden triangle a few years ago linked with TigerTops in Nepal and the Dal lake in Srinigar I’d also add Mysore palace if on a once in a lifetime visit You can get a day trip from Bangalore which is an excellent central airport with lots of reward savers on Virgin

Hi everyone, Rob has kindly allowed me to post this here. I’m building a new tool called Nanvero for people who actively collect and use airline, hotel and credit card points. The idea has evolved quite a lot while I’ve been building it. It’s not just about tracking balances — I’m trying to bring together things like: – points and programme balances – trips and travel planning – redemption planning – award flight and hotel opportunities – card fees and benefits – expiry dates – planned redemptions – points earned and used – offers and opportunities across your programmes At this stage, what I really need is feedback from people who genuinely understand points and miles. I’m looking for around 10–15 people from the HfP community who would be willing to use Nanvero for a while and tell me what is useful, what is confusing, what is missing, and what you would never use. I’ll give everyone who takes part free access while we test it. I’m especially interested in people with several airline, hotel and card programmes, because that’s where I think the product should be most useful. If you’d like to try it, you can sign up here: https://app.nanvero.com/r/head-for-points Feel free to reply here or message me directly. And please don’t worry about being polite with the feedback — criticism is much more useful to me at this stage than compliments. Thank you

Namely the dining credits, surely they will have to make an announcement soon on this? It’s the cry of many a HfPer in the second half of the year when certain benefits are ending @Jackp27 . It doesn’t help to call Amex up about it either 🙂

Never had to do that before, so didn’t know it was a thing. Quick and easy change on the phone Appreciate the guidance from all ☝️

But if it lets you choose a seat for free then you have added it 😀 Is the seat selection privilege coming from anyone else on the booking? I can assure you I have added my FF number. It appears when I click on “Add passenger details”. It is how I manager to get a seat early on. But for some reason “add your FF details” appears as an option (but if you go and try to add your BAC details it fails .. I haven’t tried to see if I can maybe add IB or other loyalty programs). This seems to be the new MMB and congrats to BA for having managed to: – remove your name from the main page (I haven’t obscured it anywhere, it simply does not show) – removed the avios and TP you gain – I think on a previous version the arrival dates where wrong when happening +1 (so a flight leaving late from the UK and landing the next day in south america will simply show 7am and not 7am +1 day)

I took advice from an earlier post and asked my friend ChapGPT to convert the pdf credit card statement transactions into a csv file. They did it in about 1 minute. Obviously, it would be preferable if Barclays provided that function for me in the app but at least I’ve found a work around.

Booked a business class flight via avios on QR (2 x seats to sin from lhr) Asked QR to move the flight, they did at no cost, even on a date when there was no avios availability. Receive call from QR 24 hours later ‘we have made a mistake – we should only of booked you a new ticket 14 days after your original flight date’ they changed it approx 28 days after my original flight date. They are now threatening to cancel my ticket, despite it being their mistake. They offered another date or on a further out date that has avios… to no surprise there are no avios flights available. I have asked for the incident to be escalated and am now being told to wait 72 hours. I have explicitly confirmed they do not have permission to cancel my ticket (which I have a receipt and confirmation on) What is my legal standing here and what chances do I have now it’s been escalated that it will still be cancelled? Thanks

Thanks again all . I’m going with the Sri Lanka option. @BBbetter the Goa taxi mafia are real exactly that. On principle I used the local buses to get around and in to Panji (the hotel concierge was horrified ! I was totally blunted to the stares by then so didn’t give a hoot 🙂 ) . @MGOR I hadn’t considered lions but did an amazing leopard safari in Jeewda. OH is fixed on Ranthambore as some friends have recently been, despite me advising that there are better places to see tigers… @strickers the litter is just horrific in India.
