    AFF Member Stock Discussion

    NAB is my only direct share holding. I bought the minimum 500 just for the shareholder benefit about 18 months ago, with the idea of cycling through their various CC offers with bonus points, and getting the annual fee waived. That went pear shaped; applied for a platinum card, but only given...

    Comparing VA and KF point earn on Amex, ANZ, and Citi

    With different primary cardholders that was never an option for us, but didn't the last Amex "enhancement" negate the benefit in doing so? FWIW, the cards we have are very similar to yours; Citi Signature Visa (no fee deal), ANZ RTA Visa (x2) and Amex Explorer (aka "McAmex", due to the flogging...

    Comparing VA and KF point earn on Amex, ANZ, and Citi

    When Mrs 2905 was carrying an Amex Platinum Edge (I was the primary cardholder) and an Amex Explorer (she's the primary cardholder), I resorted to putting stickers on them showing which was best for what, in an attempt to minimise the number of 'phone calls and maximise the points. It was...

    Coles gift card offers

    I've been using Suncorp Rewards and the associated app for buying Coles eGift Cards. They used to offer a 5% discount, but in the past month or so they quietly "Down Down'ed" it to 4%. Pros: Pretty much instant delivery of e-Gift cards. Others too, eg; 5% off Dan Murphy's (use instead of...

    Bankwest Qantas World MC 90k bonus, $6k spend in 3 months, $135 first year annual fee, exp 31 August 2019

    I thought I'd try my luck and applied today, with my Eq score of only 654, but was only conditionally approved for $6000. Oh well.

    Virgin Flyer Card - now 75k introductory points

    Same for me when I applied last Saturday, 6 months + a couple of days since last holding that card. I'm still holding the Qantas Premier Platinum though (which I'll close once the bonus points are in), but based on other posts, I thought I'd give it a shot. (At least Westpac still likes me.)

    After D-Day, Whats your new strategy?

    I've already closed my Amex Qantas Discovery and Amex Westpac Platinum. Mrs 2905's DJ's Amex has been closed too. We'll keep Mrs 2905's Amex Explorer for an effective one KF ppd, since she's now semi-retired and there's no way she'd ever be able to reapply for that card should she close it. I'll...

    ANZ CC FREE FLIGHT QUESTION

    The free flight is only for the card holder, so you'll have to go with the second option.

    Credit Card Offers Qantas Premier Platinum: Up to 80,000 bonus Qantas Points

    I suspect that I will have long churned by the time it's corrected, but maybe on the next go 'round with this card, or the one after, or the one after that. :p

    Credit Card Offers Qantas Premier Platinum: Up to 80,000 bonus Qantas Points

    Fast forward from July 2017 to my post earlier this week, and that's what the problem is. I spoke to someone at Suncorp Benefits who said that they have 5268 79 listed as a card from Canada, and they only allow AU cards. His suggestion was to contact the card issuer. Their suggestion was to...
