Much has been discussed about the "double dip" between other *A programs and Krisflyer for PPS purpose. Has anyone used VS for that purpose? I mean crediting miles to VS and PPS Values to SQ? It seems to be an easy to way attain VS Gold and PPS.

Sorry if I am missing something here, being totally unfamiliar with the PPS system, but how will crediting miles to your VS account help you attain VS gold?
Status on VS is determined by tier points. Is it possible to double dip by crediting PPS values to SQ and still get your tier points from VS?

TerryK, I got VS miles/tier points and PPS value (miniscule, the miles and PPS value ) when I did the SIN-KUL shuttle.‘Lean into the sharp points’

Thanks, I like this board. I get to learn lots of things about subjects I thought I was quite knowledgeable about.

If I credit the flight in F to VS, I get 5 all important tier points and a few miles, which are negligible. Would I still get the 5 tier points, if I went the PPS double dip route?
