As per title, it's on again and this time with 75K QFF. Please have a look at T&C.
It should be easy as banks are required to provide switching service, not many people are aware though

Perfect! My next stage of pilot training is exactly $7500. I'll now have enough QFF points to fly first class return to Europe, dream :P
ref Eligibility
"To be eligible for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Black you must:
Be 18 years of age or over
Have a good credit rating
Be a permanent Australian resident, earning a minimum annual income of $15,000 if applying for an ANZ credit card account (minimum $50,000 for a Platinum credit card and $75,000 for a Black credit card) or $50,000 in Australian Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) accounts." ref "or $50,000 in Australian Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) accounts." anyone without 75k income and 50k in deposits with anz successfully get the black card? might make a big cash deposit into wifes anz account to see if they will issue her a black card?
Will they credit you the points once you spend 7.5k or will they wait until the 3 month period to make the minimum spend is over? Anyone found this in the T&Cs?
The bonus Qantas Points will be credited to your ANZ account within three months of the eligible spend criteria being met.
Quick question. Could I buy something from my work for 8k, return it to a different card (buyers remorse), then pay off the ANZ card with the other?
Paying off one card with another is going to count as a cash advance.
Since you carried a positive balance you should not pay much interest, but I believe in the fine print there might be something about getting charged at least one day's interest on a cash advance, plus the cash advance fee.
Might end up being like $15 for the privilege in the case.
($8000 * 20ish% interest / 365 ~= $5 + $10 cash advance fee.)
Thanks
For people who spend more than $7500 in 3 months, is getting this card a no brainer? Provided this person has the time and effort to spend to apply and cancel the card in 12 months.
75,000 free points is about $500 in rewards … so even if I spend a whole hour doing the application and cancellation it is well worth my time it seems?
Are there any drawbacks to applying for this card?
Thank you.
Application takes about 5 minutes. I spent another 2 minutes emailing them my pay slips.
Hi Sween64,
Are you aware of any drawbacks if I apply for this card if my plan is to get just my free $500 vouchers and then cancel?
I'm not planning on keeping the card with it's hefty annual fee.
Thank you
Nope. That's what I plan to do.
you get 2 visits to the amex lounge, anyone knows if i can bring spouse in free of charge?
A spouse will use up one of your 2 visits i.e. you're using the "quota" of 2 visits in one hit.
I was also told it's per calendar year and not anniversary year, which is awesome for us who plan to cancel within a year to avoid the annual fee, because that means you could use it before 31 Dec, and then use it again Jan 1 2016 until you cancel in July/August 2016.
cool cheers mate, good to know. applied online got approved within 60s, too easy, waiting for the cards now.
when i tried using one of the lounges overseas (for the priority pass), it is per car holder - so you would want your +1 to have an additional card so they can enter too…
Any suggestions guys where to buy and get refund for 7K ??
Hotel booking on Expedia.
OMG guys too much to spend! )) thats crazy! unless you are going to Bora Bora on holidays! Like true OZ bargainers)
guys seriously if I book an Emirates First Class Air fare to London or Moscow….then ask for a refund on a different card right?
anyone tried this option before?
P S I have got ANZ black rewards recently with 50 000 Anz points.
This is okay then to apply for this one? I'm totally confused)

applied. now need to thinkof what to spend $7500 on :/
buying an engagement ring - conveniently just over $7.5k… :P
Reopening deal comments by request.
Thank you.
I just had my 75k bonus points awarded. That was shown on the second month's statement and have appeared in my QFF account. I reached the minimum spend within the first month.
Has anyone been successful applying for the Black card with income under 75K?
Anyone else received their points now? I have spent the minimum now and I'm wondering how long it takes to receive the points. The T&C's say it could take up to three months after the eligible spend criteria being met.
Also, how does the Qantas club membership offer work? Does it mean I can get it for free?
Keep the old credit card. Otherwise no.
