So they've upped the offer since last month's popular 120,000 point deal.
Now 140,000 or $700 worth of Flybuys points over the first 2 years.

Unfortunately I just applied yesterday.

$99 Annual fee and 14 months 0% balance transfer.

        • cheapocheapo on 23/10/2019 - 20:56

          Eventhough I have the exact same card, spoke to two different customer care, and both of them said, "yes you will get the bonus points"
          So hopefully i will get it.

    Are there any consequences to lying on a credit application form when they ask about other credit you have?

      All your credit info is recorded in your credit file, they will know if you are lying.

        So what you're saying is if it's not on your credit file it's not a lie when you fail to disclose?

        • gooddealmate on 23/10/2019 - 19:08

          Just because it's not on one credit reporting agency doesn't mean it's not on another..

        When I check my credit on those sites it doesn't report my credit limit. So can I just say "yes" I have an AmEx with a $6k limit even though it's higher and they wouldn't know any better?

        • gooddealmate on 23/10/2019 - 19:18

          Have you checked both Experian and Equifax?

          equifax definitely reports it.

      Thank you for your recent application for a Coles Rewards Platinum Mastercard.

      In making this decision, we rely on a number of sources including information provided by you and credit reporting bodies

      and on it goes about accessing and correcting your credit report.

      For some reason Citi reject me every time.

      • gooddealmate on 23/10/2019 - 19:11

        Was that an immediate online response or a letter/email?

          email after submitting a bunch of documents.

I asked for the reason and got 'background checks' and 'we can't tell you for privacy reasons'. I am now waiting for a case manager to ring me and give me more excuses (based on feedback here).

      Prepare to be rejected for no clear reason

    There must be some kind of cookie that the application site is using.
    If I open the deal from my normal browser, I still get offered 120,000 points. I clicked on the old deal.

    If I open the deal from an incognito browser, I get offered 140,000 points…

    • JoyBoy on 23/10/2019 - 20:17

      same here, even I switch to incognito mode in google chrome, it still shows 120,000 points, but if I open it with Safari, it shows 140,000 points…

  • Aerith-Waifu on 23/10/2019 - 20:27

  • muncan on 23/10/2019 - 20:32

    Applied for the 100-150K QFF Citibank card today with $49 fee. I assume that's still a better deal? Prove me wrong please.
    Also I'm still not sure whether it's true I need to now wait 6 months before safely applying for another Citibank issued card (such as this one).

    • [Deactivated] on 23/10/2019 - 21:17

      Wait until my results come out. I have a Qantas premier (applied 3 months ago) but also applied for Virgin money this Monday.

    • cwongtech on 23/10/2019 - 22:19

      Yes it's a better deal because 100,000 qff pts for $49 (ignoring min spend, because life is expensive)
      100,000 flybuys can get you $500 off Coles, or $475-$480 in equivalent cash value (Coles e-gift can be purchased @4-5% off).
      100,000 FB transferred to velocity is 43500 velocity points.

      Your deal is $49 first year, but as it's signature tier, min income required is much higher.
      Flybuys card is $99.

      • virhlpool on 23/10/2019 - 22:51

        What's 43,500 Velocity points in $$ terms normally? How do you encash it?

      • dazweeja on 23/10/2019 - 22:52

        Unless you need to transfer in a hurry, you'd probably wait and transfer in a Velocity 15% bonus deal. That's what I always do. I prefer the Citi deal too though.

      • [Deactivated] on 24/10/2019 - 05:01
        +2

        But Citi has a $15k minimum credit limit compared to$2k on this one. Big chance of rejection on the signature card

    • agalea101 on 24/10/2019 - 10:25

      What about the 444 fee for 2nd year? Or canx after the 50k bonus is paid?

      • [Deactivated] on 24/10/2019 - 10:31

        Math is for the initial 100k points, the second lot is 40k (or 50k) for $49, which conveniently works out about the same cost per point. You have to pay the second fee to get the second lot of points, it credits 2 weeks after that.

    Can your partner use same flybuy number to apply if I already have this card?

    • Vietsoldier on 24/10/2019 - 06:04

      I'd like to know the same, can we use the same flybuys number on different Coles CC and still get the points?

      • [Deactivated] on 24/10/2019 - 10:28

        You should have (at least) 2 flybuys accounts anyway to get the best targeted offers IMO.

        There's also a maximum of 138k per year that can be transferred to velocity, so ending up with 200k plus in one account doesn't seem the best idea.

  • NaRaSaRang on 24/10/2019 - 10:07

    Silly question, but is this cc any good to use overseas? Like my ing debit card reimburses all the fees charged whenever I use it while travelling overseas.

      Used mine in America this month and the exchange rates were actually REALLY competitive thanks to MasterCard interchange rates. I went with G-Adventures tour and everyone wasn't prepared so I used my Coles CC for some of their purposes and got the money back later in cash. I never needed to withdraw cash from the ATM with my ING card. No fees! really surprised how good the rates were.

    Is this card worth keeping to use as daily spending card?

    I am currently using the Qantas Premier and I much prefer getting Flyer points but Coles is my main shopping supermarket.

    • cwongtech on 24/10/2019 - 12:03

      I am currently using the Qantas Premier and I much prefer getting Flyer points but Coles is my main shopping supermarket.

      Why not buy Coles e-gift @4%-5% off, earn qff pts that way, then when you shop at Coles, earn FB points as normal?

      Sure, if you shop directly with this card you get 2 FB pts per $1

      But using the above alternate method, you get 4-5% off your shopping which would easily cast a shadow over the alternate FB points…

      • B612 on 24/10/2019 - 13:09

        How do you buy e-gift card for Coles?
        I know Woolies you can do that but not Coles from my understanding.

        • cwongtech on 24/10/2019 - 13:26

          Suncorp rewards is 4%.. many programs have a CC surcharge of 1% for coles egift now :(
