Meridian on Get a Refund ($60 AUD Less Fees) of Australian Passenger Movement Charge - 50% off Fees for Cheapies Members @ WriteforyourrightI'll let HomeGardener give the definitive answer, but it sounds to me that, if you had been charged a PMC, then you would be eligible for a...

n908671 on Remington Precision or Beauty Shave 115 pts, Titanium 185 pts, Smooth And Silky 225pts, Ultimate Series R9 720pts @ Fly BuysFor ease of reckoning, I usually count them as 20c, but I'm sure you're correct about it actually being 17c (or less) currently. A family...

Wow! I don't think any of that applies to any flights I have taken unfortunately, but good on you :-) One point you might want to add...
Yes and fair enough too, but that's a long way from not being able to use a credit card. Alan.
Unless something has just changed, that is not true - I have used a credit card at PBTech in the last month. Alan.

tightarse-nz on Surfshark VPN 90% Cashback @ Cashrewards (New Surfshark Customers Only)Okay, my apologies. Your statement above that you have 'sold hundreds of subscriptions' makes it sound like you are selling the VPN...

tightarse-nz on Surfshark VPN 90% Cashback @ Cashrewards (New Surfshark Customers Only)So what reason would you have for charging more than the advertised amount?
Looks quite dodgy to me. If you click through to the actual offer, it explicitly says NZD 2.99 per month, but that they will bill NZD...
You're welcome. Alan.

If you go to a Gull that has humans, you also get vouchers worth 10% off ($3 off $30 / $5 of $50) which is worth more than 20c per litre...
Thanks Cartwheel - Very generous of you. Alan.
The Catch.co.nz deal appears better - about 7.5c per tablet?

Now I'm scared - That sounds pretty complex to me!

Hi All, I am looking at getting a dash cam - I guess the general options are to have one fitted, or buy and do it myself. Has anyone fitted...

Only showing Whangarei and Nelson now (for me at least).

hiimpengu on Win a Trip for 2 to LA (Includes Flights, 2x $1,000 Visa Cards, 2x $1,000 MINKPINK Wardrobes + More) from MINKPINKIt was their decision to make a deliberate / explicit statement that it was available in NZ, and then actively blocking - quite different...

This is so true Kiwical.
Okay - so if we are moving a client to us, we make sure we get all the DNS settings prior to doing anything, and have them all setup ready...

Nil Einne on Discount Day - 10c/Litre off Fuel (from 7am 26/9 - 12pm 27/9) @ GullFair comment - I'm sure Gull are having a competitive impact. We have loads of stations near us - at least five within walking distance...
I agree - its only with the vouchers that their discount days are compelling, else I would likely not bother using Gull at all (compared to...
