Only points that would not have expired will be re-credited." So I guess this would not work as expected.

Yes. But for how long is to me uncertain.
A family member (not in AU) had extensions in Oct 2021, Feb 2022 & Nov 2022.
A major failing of the QF ffp is the expiry date is not stated.

I would not trust that. They may be doing a calculation: not a direct info link from QF ffp.

I have a reminder in Outlook that my points expire on Dec 31/22. I figured I'd log in to see how much I have (only 15K miles, but they can come in handy for inter Australia/NZ travel). However, when I check my activity, I have 3 transactions that say (all with the same date):

10-Nov-2022 POINTS EXTENSION

Does this mean that QF was kind enough to extend my points for 18 months from Nov 10/22?

Time to bump this topic back up. I'm in the US with 95,000 Qantas points set to expire in September. Would buying with money or points an Air BNB gift card through the Qantas shopping/maeketplace portal reset my 18 month clock?, Would the points post fairly quickly?

You can find instructions online about how to do this outside of Australia. Although it's not necessarily supposed to work this way, I was able to download it simply by temporarily switching my VPN to Australia, which made it show up in the Google Play store. As I recall it took a couple of days of the app being up and running for it to be fully connected to my Qantas account, during which time I didn't think it was going to work after all. But one day the points started transferring and it's been working like clockwork since then. Highly recommended!

it’s only available to Australians and even using a foreign phone in Australia won’t allow you access unfortunately.

Should do (only family transfers and Qantas business rewards don't count as activity). But the easiest way as mentioned is to install the Qantas Wellbeing app, which between exercises, sleep and check up activities typically drops 20-30 points a week in...
