End of first year

[kinkacruiser]

I am almost at the end of my "free" year re the ANZ + Everyday Rewards + QFF program.
I think I will be hit with a annual fee from the ANZ...and maybe Qantas?
What fees can I expect next month ? Is there a better program to churn to?
Will I earn points for flying mileage over to the USA next year?
I'm quite happy with the few free flights I have received in the first year, but we don't have a Woolworths petrol station handy to buy the cheaper petrol.
Thanks in advance.

You will not need to pay an annual fee for QFF.

You can always call ANZ and ask them to waive the annual fee. Not sure if others have been successful but it is worth a shot. I have a Qantas Amex premium card which comes with annual fee of $195. I have had this fee waived 3 years in a row and it is due to be charged again in January 2011. I will call and ask them to waive it again. You need to be prepared to walk if they do not waive the annual fee.

Will I earn points for flying mileage over to the USA next year?

Yes if you are on QF flights.
