  Thinking of a long weekend at The Grand in York. Any views or experiences of what it’s like?

  I was really excited by this offer. Spend £400 by the end of November. What you didnt point out is the ‘stay by date’ is also at the end of Nov. I have just wasted an hour researching hotels in California for a trip early next year.

    This issue is that you don’t understand how these offers work not Robs wording.

    Notwithstanding any confusion about stay by dates, if you’d read the article more carefully, you’d have saved yourself looking at hotels in California for an hour.

      Indeed. “You will see the hotels taking part in the offer, **which are all in Europe**”.

        California is about half way between Glasgow and Edinburgh. Closest Preferred hotel would be the old Course at St Andrews

    I think the OP may be creating his own adversity here.

  Off topic: I see the advert for expresstest (by Cignpost) at the top of the page. I’ve tried on multiple different occasions to book a day 2 test at Heathrow T5 and the website doesn’t show any dates. The calendar freezes and I can’t proceed any further. An email last week to their customer service has so far gone unanswered. Anyone had any joy?

    I don’t think the calendar is freezing. There’s simply no availability. There is some at other heathrow locations so if you select that then shift the location to T5, the previous date selected seems to stick.

  Flying with my wife BA CW to JFK in December on 777 fitted with new CW Suite. Anyone have thoughts on best seats for 2pp together?

  I’m looking for a 5* hotel for a day in Paris in October. I don’t know any of the preferred hotels, but I can see the are a few in the list for the offer. Are there any experiences/recommendations for them?
  Thanks.

  Off topic. I’d book a Maldives gateaway for mid September on offer credit to HfP. Even though on Red List, I was still looking forward to it. Problem is BA cancelled outgoing flight, no alternative given and now can’t get through to them over phone past 5 days! Is anyone else experiencing the same and how do I go about this? I’m happy for BA to shift me to a Qatar plane that flies the day before or after my initial date.

  OT – has anyone else had an offer of 15,000 Virgin Red points to switch current accounts?

  • Mikeact says:

    Yes, but why would I do that….15k or not ?

      What an odd response.

  Would appreciate any advice as to whether the Preferred offer on Amex is only on a minimum £400 room spend or if it’s on the total bill at checkout. I can’t find anything clear in the T&Cs for the offer. Thanks

  • Rob says:

    Has to be checkout spend. Amex can’t see your bill.

      Thanks – both for your reply and your helpful website too
