Thanks, looks like the 80k one has an annual fee of $299 still

For what it's worth, this Qantas Premier card is unable to be used with some merchants because it is somehow not recognised as a local card ( I can't fathom why this so ) Qantas cards response is as per below


"We aware of the issue you have have reported and have escalated to Citibank, the card issuer. It appears as Citibank is a global bank, the "Bank Issued Number" of this card is associated with an overseas bank ...”

)

When I held this card I was informed by a financial institution that some of the digits indicated that it was issued in Singapore which caused no end of problems.

The 40k one has no 1st year annual fee and a spend of just 2k for each of the first 2 months.

$4000 spend for 40,000 points isn't great. Hopefully Qantas updates there deals on these cards past August.

Just cancel my virgin money credit card. May I get the bonus points from Qantas money credit card as they are the same credit cards issued by CITI bank?

Sure can!

It seems that this card does not have an exclusion period. As long as one does not hold another QF Premier card, it seems fine. I wonder if anyone in here has got the sign-up bonus without serving the 12 months exclusion period please?

 

[ivan]

Sure can!

Rejected by Qantus (Citi) and HSBC immediately after I submitted my application online. Not sure what goes wrong. Check my credit history and report indicated good and high scores. Applied twice credit cards in the past 6 months and a car loan (25K).

Happened to me as well. I had the virgin card last year, applied for the Qantas one and was rejected without a credit check. Applied again when the 3 month exclusion period was up. Rejected, no credit check again. No debt except for the other card I was holding and cover all requirements. Seems I'm in the citi bin.

I was in the same position. Citi did not check my credit history, but HSBC did. I assume they knew my spending which is high as I always use my card to buy something that my roommates want and they pay me in cash.

I can't speak to your situation, but I held the Virgin Money card (& ironically the HSBC card) when I received the Qantas Card last year. And, to compare data points it was my 7th card of the year.

A month after applying for the Qantas card I applied for the Virgin High flyer card (which was trickier, but eventually approved).

Did you apply for two cards at once? Sounds risky...

Yes, I applied for 2 cards at once. I learned from this lesson.

I rang yesterday - they reckon there is a 6 month exclusion - although cant see it anywhere

 

[Longtoo]

Thanks Dave Griffin. I will wait for the 6 months exclusion then.

It looks like Qantas have now reduced the offer to 60,000 pts.

Does anyone have a current link that still shows 80,000 pts?

60,000 points and a $300 QF flight credit - if you're already planning on flying this offsets the cost of the annual fee, so not too bad of an offer.

Also spend has increased to $4000 over 90 days for 60,000 points. I can remember the first offer which was 75000 points for only $3000 spend.

I called to cancel my premier card (intending to apply for the everyday) & they said this to me too... apparently it’s not that you’re ineligible for the bonus points, it’s that you’re ineligible to be approved for another card for 6 months?!

Am undecided as to whether I’ll try my luck or find another card, I’m sitting out too many exclusion periods right now!

Plus when that means that when you add in all the various benefits that you get 60K plus can get more than $300 in value back for the$299 fee.

 

[blacksultan]

considering this is issued by Citi , is it easy getting approved for this card?
