    Hasn't this deal been running for a while ?

    • Yes it has been running for a while.

  • no annual fee for the first year

    What are the consequences, if any, of cancelling before the year is out to avoid the annual fee in the 2nd year?

    • +1

      None in my mind. Although some will say having too many credit card applications can affect your credit rating.

      • Probably has as much of an impact as using your mouse everyday has on its wear and tear. I find the impact is extremely negligible.

      • +2

        In Australia they will give you more money as long as you have a way to pay it back. If you don't have any defaults put on your credit history then it is usually OK.

        I have like 10 credit card apps, still managed to get a few large loans.
        They may ask you why there are so many, and just tell them the truth "Got them because of their QFF free points". They don't care.

    • +1

      No consequences. They will TRY retain you though.

      • Not ANZ. They close on the spot. Even noticed I had another credit card (got me $250 of Coles Myer vouchers), and asked if I wanted to close both at the same time.

    • I did this one of the previous times they had this deal running, and no consequences - they simply ask you why you're cancelling (I told them it was because I had another fee-free rewards card) and process it for you. No idea if they would keep any records of this and potentially reject future CC applications (ANZ only) if you do it too many times.

  • Note there is a monthly cap on points earned.

  • 0.5 Qantas Points per $1 spent on the visa sounds a little low on a platinum. Is this the norm now?

    • yeah, usually its 0.5 or 0.625 for platinum i find

      can go as high as 1:1 with some cards

  • so many terms and conditions.

  • +3

    Not available in conjunction with other offers, packages or promotions, or when transferring from an existing ANZ credit card or where you currently hold or have closed an ANZ Frequent Flyer, ANZ Frequent Flyer Gold, ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum or ANZ Frequent Flyer Black credit card within the previous twelve months.

    • My interpretation is that if I have the ANZ REWARDS card I am eligible for the ANZ FF card (and vice versa)? What do you think?

      • I guess so. I think transferring from an existing ANZ credit card means balance transfer.

  • +1

    has anyone received their QF points from the last offer yet?

    • Yes. I have received the QF points from last offer (after 3 months of application). I cancel it a month after. Call the hotline and request card cancel, answer few questions and done. But I am still within the 12 months period, unable to apply this. I think theoffer is available from time to time, of course QF points may vary. Thanks.

      • Hey tztong, where did you see the 12 months periods for this deal? I haven't seen it any where. Maybe it only applicable to the 75000 bonus points deal!

    • Yes I got it within about 3 months of card spend.

  • +1

    If you want Virgin points instead, consider the ANZ Rewards Black card which has 75000 ANZ Rewards points with a $7500 spend in 3 months, no annual fee for the first year. Or just get the AMEX Velocity card which has a 110000 point bonus until the end of Sept.

    There is a 2:1 transfer from ANZ Rewards to Velocity so you will end up with ~37000 Velocity points but Virgin occasionally do a promo where you get 10-15% more points when you convert credit card awards to Velocity, this should likely occur in the 1 year you will have the card. Note that the ANZ Rewards Black AMEX card offers 3 reward points per $1 so you actually accrue more Velocity points even with the 2:1 transfer rate.

  • Does it matter if you spend the $5000 spread across the AMEX and Visa? and will using Paypal count as an eligible purchase?

    • +1

      Using PayPal yes is fine.
      Don't know the answer to your first question though but I assume the answer is yes, because it's the same account anyway.

      • Cheers, I assume the same. Figured I'd check because some places don't accept AMEX but I want to use the majority to get the 1.5 points. I might give them a call later to confirm.

    • +1

      It doesn't matter which card you use, the combination of 2 would be fine. PayPal is also eligible.

    Be careful on ANZ, they seem to be getting dodgier and dodgier. They lied to me after my last time, convinced my to get their ANZ CC with "their" points.

    • +5

      Lied to you about what? That last part doesn't sound like a lie. Just sounds like a salesman doing their job.

      • +7

        Lol he just pissed that he got suckered in by the salesman….

    • -1

      Last time (2 months ago), I called and cancelled my QFF cards, they tried "dodgily" offering me their same cards but with their points. They are really dodgy !!!

      • +4

        I do not understand how you and cakesy are using the word dodgy. How is that dodgy? Can you explain?

        Does that mean a Samsung salesman telling you to convert to Samsung from your iPhone is "dodgily" trying to convert you to Samsung?

        I accept salespeople can be dodgy, but you haven't elaborated and it just sounds like they're trying to sell you a product.

      • +2

        You have a strange interpretation of dodginess.

      • +4

        I went to a McD, to buy a burger. They "dodgily" asked if I wanted fries with that! OMG fries! They are really dodgy !!!

        • Just be glad they didn't dodgily ask you to upgrade to a full meal! The nerve! SMH

        • Is it really necessary that you mock someone who clearly has a language barrier?

  • Pretty much a dupe.

  • It use to be only 1500 dollar spend in 3 months. They have increased it to 5000$.

  • What would you even spend 3k on? (New to the FF points scheme)

    • Car insurance/rego/service/new tyres, gift vouchers for Coles/Woolies, school/uni fees, annual subscriptions, health insurance (can prepay up to a year), buy your Xmas presents, pay your utility bills in advance, there's a fair few things you can spend it on.

      • So i could technically buy 3k worth of a prepaid debit card?

        • Yep…but that would incur the $4/5 fees along the way (not sure what the maximum amount on each is).

        • @JohnHowardsEyebrows:

          AH alright thanks, seems the Westfield Debit Giftcards (useable anywhere)

          $4.95 Each
          Maximum Reload $995

          So technically total $1000 on each card, need to by 3 to get the limit

          $15 / 50k Points

        • @Catalystic: Isn't it a $5k minimum spend, or did I miss something?

        • @brazen00:

          My mistake, You're right - misread it.

          $25 / 50k points ;p

        • @Catalystic: Yeah still good at the price, if you can't get the $5k spend naturally.

        • @brazen00:

          Yeah that is what i mean - i don't have 5k to spend naturally, if only i applied for this before buying my holiday ._.
