Registered my NAB Classic credit card to go travelling and received an email with a cashback offer.
Ymmv and cashback amounts/spend amounts may vary.
My particular offer was $50 Cashback for $1000 spend.
This offsets the 3% international transaction fee plus you get triple NAB points for overseas spend which brings the Classic card to approx 1 virgin velocity point per dollar spent. The platinum card will be closer to 1.5 velocity points per dollar.
T&C's
The cash back offer up to $300 is available to the customer addressed in this offer email, who has registered their NAB Rewards Classic Card ending xxxx.
For this offer, only everyday purchases made overseas in a foreign currency by the primary and any secondary cardholders for two months after departure from Australia will be considered. All overseas returns/refunds will be adjusted against your account.
Cash back will be applied to your eligible credit card account up to 6 weeks after the offer end date. This offer is subject to your account being open, kept in good standing and not overdue.
This offer is subject to your account:
being open = yep
kept in good standing = D'oh!
and not overdue = dammit.
I'm out.
