Card Promotions 100k Velocity points offer with ANZ Platinum card (apply by 15/11/24)

[Mattg]

ANZ has a new Velocity points offer on its Rewards Platinum credit card.

You can still get 100,000 ANZ Rewards points as a sign-up bonus (worth 50K Velocity points). But if you opt in to Velocity auto-redemption and keep it turned on, you'll get 70,000 bonus Velocity points for spending $2,000 within the first 3 months. If you keep the card for more than 15 months you'll get another 30,000 Velocity points.

Annual fee is $149.

Probably worth noting this stacks with the 30k bonus VFF offer Velocity Frequent Flyer Card Bonus Points 2024

about to apply for an ANZ card after cancelling my St Georges' and just came across the Reward Platinum which nets you 170k points that works out to be 85k VFF points since I don't plan on keeping the card for > 15 months for the additional 30k with a $149 annual fee while the Rewards Black gets you 180k points with $375 annual fee, seems to me it's better value to get the platinum and switch on auto renewals?

edit: never mind, upon further inspection it looks like the Rewards Platinum deal is structured to be either VFF (70k + 30k) or ANZ rewards (100k) and not combined

Worst application experience ever. I will not be using ANZ again.

I don't believe this is correct. If you visit the Velocity Promo page you will see this card does not have the same "Get an extra 30,000 Velocity Points... when you apply by 15 July 2024.* that most of the other cards listed have.

See: Velocity Frequent Flyer Card Bonus Points 2024"

Hmm I see. I'm a bit confused as to why it's listed on the promotions page then. Bit deceptive

Nice deal! Will give it a crack ..

How long before they send you the email to get the points?

I cleared it almost immediately and a month later still nothing.

Have you made sure you've set up auto redemption on ANZ rewards?

 

[deebens]

Have you made sure you've set up auto redemption on ANZ rewards?

Yep, did it as soon as I got the card. Had a few redemptions come through.

 

[Zanzaid]

Got my email this morning and 70k already in my account, great!

 

[deebens]

Have you made sure you've set up auto redemption on ANZ rewards?

Nope. My balls up. Somehow I entered I'd cancelled 3 weeks earlier in my spreadsheet. FFS 70k points down the tubes.

I commenced an ANZ credit card application a couple of years ago and had to pull the pin as the level of financial information they wanted was mind-boggling. Pretty much down to every dollar that passed through my hands. I am all for responsible lending but the system seemed designed to result in a very low approval rate. I have not found this with any other card provider and have an excellent credit rating. My friend has had the same experience.

Does anyone have any intel on the ANZ system? This is a good offer but I don't know if I can face the application process.

It's crazy how much YMMV with banks. ANZ have always been the best for me (Including some ahem - fortuitous - mistakes made by them). Citi were always the problem with me until NAB took over.

Hi, just double checking - I have a ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum credit card, I'm still eligible for the 70k bonus points if I apply for the ANZ rewards cc right?

 

[FishFood]

Applied and uploaded 6 payslips, interested to see how long approval takes or whether I'll be approved

I had to upload seven to get three months of income.

A bit of a faff but from application to approval took 6 days, including a weekend. Now waiting on the card to arrive.

A friend successfully applied or this card. The card arrived without any mention of the bonus Velocity rewards. A convenient omission by ANZ ? Once registered for internet banking, he had to drill down to the rewards option, then register for the ANZ rewards website, then select auto-redemption to Velocity.
