Banks to cut card rewards

-

revealed cardholder­s spend an average of $20,000 per year on their card and if they are a points chaser they should consider ditching their card before the changes kick in.

“If that’s you and you’ve got a premium rewards card cut it up,’’ the site’s spokeswoma­n Sally Tindall said.

“The research shows rewards cards are almost useless, but they are good for high-end people who travel a lot because they do have compliment­ary travel insurance.”

Moneytolov­e. com. au’s founder Heidi Armstrong urged consumers to rethink the need to have a credit card because it may be leaving them worse off.

“If you are not paying your credit card off every month then the amount you are paying in interest doesn’t give you sufficient value to take up a card for the rewards program,’’ she said. FILMING on In Like Flynn has wrapped on the Gold Coast, with director Russel Mulcahy revealing more details from the film’s six-week shoot.

Mulcahy, whose credits include Teen Wolf and The Chronicles of Lizzie Borden, currently on Netflix, assembled a stellar cast for the $12 million film, lead by Thomas Cocquerel as Errol Flynn.

“It’s been incredible fun to work on this project,” he said.

Billed as a mythical and satirical coming-of-age story, the film also stars Corey Large, William Moseley (The Royals, Clive Standen (Taken), Callan Mulvey, David Wenham and Dan Fogler (Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them).

“The guy (Flynn) was amazing in the way he took on life, head on and we get to show that,” Mulcahy said.

“To say Flynn was fearless is pretty accurate.”

Mulcahy said the production filmed on location on Tamborine Mountain, with the rainforest doubling for Papua New Guinea.

The film, slated for release in 2018, also shot footage above and below water near Jacob’s Well.
