nubix on WBC Altitude Black CC Reduced 1st Annual Fee $195, 80,000 QFF Points + Additional 20,000 Bonus on Approval (8wks)

They have, but paying for taxes on a frequent flier redemption counts for getting the invitations - I've done it twice and got two sets.

You should confirm if you'll get the bonus points, when I got my Earth black a few years ago they said I wouldn't get them because I wasn't…

Pcoder on Westpac Altitude (Platinum & Black Included), 50k QF Points or Altitude Points on $2.5k Spend, $0 1st Year for Westpac Cust

You can switch between earning Qantas Points and Altitude Rewards, so you could get the 50k in Qantas Points and then earn for Krisflyer.
