    So I don't know if this will work for anyone else, but when I signed up for this deal earlier this year I also applied for a 2nd cardholder and (I'm guessing as a result of this) received 2x 75k bonus points. I usually apply for two cards when there is no fee, and this was the first time I've had this happen.

    However, this was the only pleasant surprise of the whole ordeal. Dealing with ANZ over the few months I had that card was consistently one of the worst and most needlessly difficult interactions with a bank I've ever had…Examples include still relying on fax or post for some forms (no online submission available) and regularly being shuffled between 3+ different staff both on the phone and in a branch due to lack of authority to perform what I assumed were extremely basic tasks.

      I also signed up for this deal earlier in the year but did not do any extra cardholder stuff.

      After I reached the required min spend I ended up with double the points (Eg: 150k) lol. No complaints here

      • JengT89 on 03/08/2020 - 15:01

        Same for me. Only single card holder but credited with 150k points. Pretty chuffed!

        • nsta8487 on 03/08/2020 - 16:21

          Huh, well there you go, I just assumed it was the 2nd cardholder that caused the error, but good to hear others were able to find the same outcome!

      To make matters worse, their entire 'credit team' has been 'down' for at least 4 months now…operating on a 'Don't call us, we'll call you' basis, totally impractical
      I've vowed never to use the ANZ (for anything) ever again

  • pingualien on 03/08/2020 - 11:38

    If we got declined for the 60k offer a month ago, should we try apply again?

    • XyCo on 03/08/2020 - 12:47

      Similar situation. Did you try to reapply?

      • pingualien on 03/08/2020 - 13:23

        Will most likely, as wasn’t sure why the first time had been declined think it might be because of working for 3 months at my job. Did you know why yours got declined first time?

    • nightelves on 03/08/2020 - 15:08

      Think you have to wait 3 months in between to reapply again.

      • pingualien on 03/08/2020 - 17:25

        thanks will try again in few months then

        • ck009 on 03/08/2020 - 20:14

          They usually keep the application open for 84 days. You can call them and ask for a review of the declined application. Ask to speak with a supervisor (they are usually available from 3PM Aussie time onwards). I got mine reviewed and was successful in getting the approval.

          • pingualien on 04/08/2020 - 08:54

            @ck009: Yeah I have called them, but they said theres nothing they can do and it is still in review and has been like 4 weeks. How long did it take for you to get approved after being initially declined?

              +1

              @pingualien: @pingudog I just dug thru the emails and can confirm - I got the approval 63 days after the application was initially declined. They asked me a few additional docs but I went overseas and sent the docs after I returned. I called them and gave them the case number - while I was on the phone sent the documents via email and asked the rep to pick it up from the queue. Asked to process it while on phone and was transferred to a supervisor who approved the application. Think the call lasted nearly 25 minutes.

                @ck009: Hi @ck009 when ANZ reviewed your application did you see an additional credit enquiry on your credit report/credit score changed?

                • ck009 on 13/08/2020 - 20:17

                  @minipenguin: No, there was no additional enquiry other than the initial one.

          • CheaperCharlie on 04/08/2020 - 12:05

  • magicloic on 03/08/2020 - 12:18

    I have the Qantas black since last year, and there is one very annoying thing which ANZ did not fix.

    ANZ is sometimes charging some oversea fees for some online transactions in AUD !

    Example : purchased last weeks some equipment on Nike.com.au, and I got the bad surprise of getting 3% fees…

    Very painful as it can stack up to a few hundred $ of unjustified fees over the year….

    Pay very attention to your online statements.

    • cloudie9 on 03/08/2020 - 12:33

      Wouldn't that be merchant issue? I would take it up to Nike for clarification.

    • pg88 on 03/08/2020 - 12:35
      +1

      I believe it's common for banks to charge an overseas fee on merchants that might be situated overseas - have had this on all cards that don't waive overseas transaction fees.

      You might be buying everything in AUD but if it's an overseas merchant they slap you with the fee.

    • chino8826 on 03/08/2020 - 13:14

      It's not an ANZ issue, it's the merchant. I got charged too on my Latitude Infinity card.

  • corgicorgi on 03/08/2020 - 12:23

    does it work when i only cancelled the ANZ Black Card back in February/March? 6 months ago….i know previously it had to be around 12 months to get the bonus points…

      12 months gap as per T&Cs. You can try but probably will be told no bonus points.

    1. Has anyone cancelled their Rewards Travel Adventures credit card and signed up to this deal?

    2. Does the 12 month waiting period apply to the Rewards Travel Adventures credit card?

    • nickj on 03/08/2020 - 17:06
      +2

      The Reward Travel Adventures card (the Virgin point earning one) is independent from the list of exclusions for this card. It's basically a different rewards program (VFF vs QFF). So yes you can mix both, and yes my spouse has done exactly this (ANZ QFF black, got bonus points, closed, then 4 days later applied for ANZ travel adventures for VFF points) - got approved for both and got the bonus points for both.

      • w37hsyea on 03/08/2020 - 17:09

        Thanks for the reply. That's really helpful to know.
        There is a large volume of Rewards Travel users who are looking for a new card with QFF over Virgin.

  • pacman21 on 03/08/2020 - 13:50

    Great increase.

    Apologies if this was answered earlier but just to confirm, if you get this card, you're also ineligible for ANZ black card promotions for 12 months as well?

    • squarepants on 03/08/2020 - 17:40

      Ineligible for 12 months for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Black card but not the ANZ Rewards Black card. They're two separate card rewards system (i.e. one's Qantas, the other ANZ Rewards).

    75,000 Qantas Points and free Qantas Frequent Flyer membership are nice to have. $295 annual fee? I'm not so sure. I'm a Qantas Frequent Flyer platinum card holder, the annual fee is around $90. They do charge me a separate Qantas Frequent Flyer membership fee, I think it's around $60. Maybe its because I joined years ago.

    It says 'and no annual account fee for the first year' but then it says:

    1. For ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum, a Total Annual Fee of $295 applies which includes a $240 Annual Account Fee and a $55 Rewards Program Services Fee.

    Is this $55 fee still charged? or is that actually included in the 'no annual account fee'?

    • nightelves on 03/08/2020 - 19:14

      It's probably because they can't extract anything from you. Next time put expenses around $1500.

      • nickj on 03/08/2020 - 19:40
        +1

        Yeah, you want to meet all the criteria, have a good credit report, and but I suspect you want to look like you're low to very low risk, but not no risk, i.e. you probably want to have some expenses. Also suspect ideally: pre-tax income - expenses > min income requirement (assume that's $35,000 pa for platinum cards like this).

        Also check your credit report. I use credit savvy - bit of a faff to set up, but it's free, I haven't received any calls or spam that I know of from joining it, and it sends you monthly updates, and once it's running it's totally painless for checking that what should be on your credit file actually is. It's also good to see yourself from the perspective of the financial institutions. There are other services, but that's the one I'm happy with. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/creditsavvy.com.au

          I haven't had a credit card for a few years. They used to ask about your assets on the form back in the day. Now they don't bother and want to know at a fine detail what you spend things on. It's the same level of detail for a $10k credit card as a $1m loan - that's nuts!

          My financial position is very healthy like I said above. It's confusing.

            @SummerZero: The application is definitely more detailed than what I recall the last time I applied for the ANZ FF Black (early 2018). They did ask about assets as well this time.

              It's their loss in the long run, I won't consider them for a home loan in future.

                +2

                @SummerZero: I retract my suggestions. I had all the stuff I suggested (met criteria, good credit report, some expenses but covered by provable income), and I got rejected too. I honestly have no idea why. As you say, all they really care about now is income and expenses, and don't really pay any attention to assets. I find that weird - I mean if a workmate forgot their wallet and wanted to borrow $20 to buy lunch, I wouldn't ask for their tax return, I'd ask whether they have money in the bank. But instead they're treating it like a home loan application that lasts for decades (sorry anz, but most probably we were talking 3 months tops). And my income was a little bit higher and my expenses a little bit lower than the last time I successfully applied end of 2018. Oh well, plenty more banks in the ocean ;-)

                • UrMumsOnlyFan on 06/08/2020 - 09:18

                  @nickj:

                  all they really care about now is income and expenses, and don't really pay any attention to assets.

                  That view would certainly be shared by retirees with millions in assets who cannot get a credit card.

                  I mean if a workmate forgot their wallet and wanted to borrow $20 to buy lunch

                  Lending someone a trivial amount once off is not a good analogy. Financing someone's revolving credit on an ongoing basis would be more like giving someone your credit card. They can rack up debt (that you're holding) and carry that debt forward (and grow it) by only making minimal monthly repayments.

                  I could see why finance providers could be more interested in income and expenses than assets. I don't necessarily believe that's what they do, and I don't necessarily agree that's the best way of assessing credit card applications, but (if it is actually what they do) then I could see why.

    • nickj on 04/08/2020 - 19:45
      +2

      For some people it's quick, some people it is quite slow. I applied nearly 2 weeks ago, on the previous 60 K offer, met the criteria, good credit score, supplied the requested docs on application; was then called and asked for even more docs, which I supplied on the same day (that was a week ago). I'm still waiting to hear back from them. I've emailed them and asked for an update, still no response, still in application limbo, and you can't phone them (if you call their number you get an automated msg that they're not answering phones at the moment), you can only email them (and hope that someone contacts you back). I'd echo the comments about the application processing needing to be faster, and less onerous (the number of docs they want is ridic), and for them to be easier (or even just possible) to contact by phone or even by email with one-business-day turnaround for a response.

      • Hargain Bunter on 04/08/2020 - 22:12

          ATO notice of assessment, most recent personal tax return, associated company most recent tax return and financial reports (P&L and balance sheet).

          All up, the initial and additional docs came to a whooping 38 pages of documentation.

          Then they called me and went line item by line through expenses. (I'm not even kidding when I say my mortgage application needed less detail than this, for far more over a far longer period of time).

          Then they sent me an automated rejection notice, hahaha!

            @nickj: Yikes, what a pain! They called me and asked for a few more payslips today, so hoping that is sufficient for them. 🤞

      For mine it was super quick - applied last night, received approval this afternoon. Supplied 3 months of payslips, no further info requested. $10k limit requested and approved.

      Only issue is the online identification verification isn't working for me (can't seem to enter my country of citizenship) so I'll go in to a branch and do it.

    If I am currently a supplementary card holder for a family member who has this card, am I eligible to take up the offer?

    • CocaKoala on 04/08/2020 - 09:49

      Yes, you are eligible.

      • Duckie2hh on 04/08/2020 - 10:48

        Anywhere I can reference this to? Thank you

          This was two years ago, but my partner got a card while being a supplementary card holder on my card on a similar deal. I reckon I rang them and they said it should be OK, and it was.
