    This is a great deal. I would be all over this if it weren't for the fact that I had closed a ANZ Rewards Black card in May this year.

    • daanish on 07/10/2022 - 09:40

      Same. I just closed a Rewards Black to churn something else. This is a much better deal than the Citi Rewards 60k VFF that I've just signed up for.

      The ANZ Black was a much better deal tho.

      I'm closing my Amex, and I can start flipping any other bank now.

      I would rather a deal on the ANZ Black tho!

      • glenf on 08/10/2022 - 20:36

        Just trying to understand how long does it take to get the points added into the account . I opened the anz black account mid June and would have reached the min spend in about 2 statements time. Wondering how long does the points credit plus the refund of fees usually take ? I am worried I messed something ?

        • Edgecrusher on 09/10/2022 - 08:07

          Have you payed off the money you spent?

          I found with nab the points were credited after you repayed that minimum spend

          • glenf on 09/10/2022 - 13:03

            @Edgecrusher: Yes I have done that. I pay off everything I owe pretty much every month. So that should have cleared in the first 3 months . Hopefully it should come in another month. Otherwise I’ll call ANZ to enquire

    Roughly how much 75,000 VFF Points worth? one free domestic return flight ticket?

    • nerdinary on 07/10/2022 - 09:53

      About 5 return flights between Sydney and Melbourne, excluding taxes

      • VincentQQ on 07/10/2022 - 10:06

        Surprised. Cancelling my Amex and switch to this. :)

    • SnowDragon on 07/10/2022 - 09:56

      The Pointhacks link has a table listing them, but you have to be in quick to get the rewards seats.

      Most domestic flights one way are between 20-30k.

      Melb <> Syd is 42k business class
      Melb <> Gold coast is 60k business class

      • FirstWizard on 07/10/2022 - 10:38
        +4

        I usually never use points to pay taxes as it has a very bad conversion rate (about .5c/pt).
        The flight component is about 3c/pt for business and 1.5c/pt for economy with Virgin I found.

        So with that
        Melb <> Syd Business reward would be 30k + $70 tax

      • May4th on 07/10/2022 - 19:42

        Yes. Always pay tax in cash.

        Also, domestic short haul business is rarely worth it, better off with Economy X if you need the leg room, there's much cheaper ways to get lounge access. I'd save the points for a lie-flat on international route

    • bar gain man on 07/10/2022 - 13:01

      About 2,400 miles return.

    • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 08/10/2022 - 09:38

    Dang, this is even better deal than the ANZ Rewards Black.

    • vetopower on 07/10/2022 - 10:47
      +3

      Disagree.

      The Rewards Black often comes with 180K points for $0 AF. 180K converts to 90K VFF. 25K VFF (90-75) is worth a minimum of $250 — way more than $50.

      • fedex11 on 07/10/2022 - 10:49

        Does the Rewards Black also come with status credits?

        • vetopower on 07/10/2022 - 10:50
          +1

          No. If you need them, this deal is the best option for you.

        • vetopower on 07/10/2022 - 10:55
          +1

          Apologies, should be 15K more points, not 25K. My maths failed me!

      • timhn on 07/10/2022 - 11:24

        Are we talking about this https://www.anz.com.au/personal/credit-cards/rewards/black/ ?

        Only 80K points + $375 AF (0 for existing customers)

          That's the card. It often goes on offer for 180K + $0AF.

          • bargainerpro on 07/10/2022 - 11:44

            @vetopower: But only for the first year, right? Then you're on the hook for regular annual fees, moving forward.

                @vetopower: Aren't people's credit scores getting completely wrecked by getting new CCs and ditching them repeatedly?
                I once questioned why my Score dropped a few points (still Excellent) and they mentioned that was likely the reason, as there was absolutely nothing at all there (I never pay my bills late, and there were 0 negative entries there).

                I'm curious to know what people do to take advantage of these deals without getting their credit score destroyed in the process.

                Thanks

                  @bargainerpro: The credit score value is just a number from Illion / Equifax / Experian came up by themselves - which unrelated with each others. Each of them came up with a different way to give a number base on your history. My score from Experian is at "Excellent" and "Average" with Illion.

                  Their scores have little effect on my next credit card application. Banks/Lenders will not use your credit score to determine your liability. They're having their own method to do that.

                  You will not "destroy" your score by apply and cancel credit cards regularly - perhaps may raise eyebrows to some lenders when they validate your history. If your history showing you have no late payments then should all be fine.

                  Sometimes, my score dropped a bit if I closed a card, but raised back after apply for a new credit card - go figure!!

                  FYI, I churned regularly, 5 cards this year so far (range from low to Premier type cards).

                    I second this point. I took a big mortgage recently and was expecting my credit score to dip, instead it raised by 50 points.

                          Now that I think of it, when I use beem with my debit card it shows as 'Withdrawal', but then again those transactions were all to a bank account with bsb and account number and all, not bpay.

        ANZ QFF and ANZ Rewards are two different product offerings. Holding/having held a QFF card in the last 12 months doesn't usually exclude you from offers on the Rewards and vice-versa.

          Yes, we keep getting this question asked for almost every ANZ QFF/Rewards deal.

          They are different award streams if you just scroll down to the T&Cs and check the exclusion cards they mentioned there.

          With Westpac & St George, they're excluding all as they category under one type (WP: Altitude, SG: Amplify)

  • vetopower on 07/10/2022 - 10:50

    Surprised by the enthusiasm for this deal.

    The Rewards Black often comes with 180K points for $0 AF.

    180K ANZ rewards points converts to 90K Velocity points.

    That's 15K more Velocity points than this deal.

    15K Velocity points is worth a minimum of $150 — way more than the net $50 you get from this deal.

    And you don't have to deal with a Virgin travel credit. And your points are more flexible with the Black — can also convert to other airlines or cash out if you wish.

    Only positive for this deal is the status credits.

    • [Deactivated] on 07/10/2022 - 10:59

          So I can do both cards? Cool

          I actually am cancelling my Amex, and I haven't had any other bank card in over 12 months.

            @[Deactivated]: Start with the ANZ FF Black Qantas 160K deal.

              @vetopower: Yeah, thank you!

              Am I able to do this deal too? It has a low spend!

              @vetopower: @vetpower where can I find the ANZ FF Black Qantas 160k deal? All I can find is the same but with 110k FF points?

      The Rewards Black often comes with 180K points for $0 AF.

      Haven't seen that offer for some time. Also, income criteria is higher and minimum $15K limit

        Yeah, but I would take 160k qff deal over 180k ANZ pts.
