St George Amplify card - $139 for 90k points (discounted fee via specific link)

[usmantk]

I dont think the reduced fee offer is available anymore, has been removed from PH website, if you have saved link, it doesnt let you select the card from drop down. 279 $ still works.

I am trying to sign up the the St George Qantas 90k offer using the Pointhacks affiliate link but I am having difficulties completing the application. I think there is a website glitch because I have tried to complete the application on multiple browsers and computers but the same issue continues to arise. The issue occurs right at the start of the application after I have put in my name and email. The next question asks me what card type I want to apply for (Qantas Signature) but the drop down box does not have any options to select. Can you please advise because I keep getting stuck at this part of the application and it wont let me move forward until i have selected which card I am applying for but it gives me nothing to select.

This is from the Points Hack website:

The Point Hacks St.George Amplify Exclusive offer is on hold while St.George look into some technical issues affecting the application form. We hope to have this back online soon. Thanks for your patience!

If the applicant is already a secondary card holder on my account will the points be allocated if they apply for one on their own?

Yes. As long as they haven't had their own personal account within the previous 12 months.

Excellent, thank you.

Funny thing was that I applied through the Point Hacks link on Saturday night and got pre-approved almost immediately.
Sent through my payslips on Monday morning and got approval confirmation 2 hours later.
Card arrived at my local Bank of Melbourne branch yesterday, activated it and put through $2.5k on the card the same night.
Now to spend another $1.5k

I applied last night as the link is now working.
Conditional approval but cant get the online banking working off their link.
I got another email prompting me to finish setting this up this morning but no luck.

I am self employed so sent NOA and proof of business income but dont expect to get approval till next wek

Does any know if I can get the bonus points after I received the bonus points from Westpac or Bank of Melbourne? They are all the same banking group.

Pretty sure you can't if you previously got it from BOM but not sure about Westpac.

Thank you. Look like I can not apply for CC from BOM and St George at the same time.

Does anyone know about Westpac case?

You won't be prevented by holding a Westpac card.

Well that was fast! Bonus points posted exactly two weeks after the 5k spend, including QF bonus (all spend was on QF), total 99k points.

 

[mviy]

That is fast. Some of us have been waiting a lot longer than that. I may have to chase up St. George if they don't post soon.

 

[jbman]

Same, three statements in and no bonus points yet

 

[boomy]

One possible reason may be that most new signups under this promo met the required spend early on, in March and SG had a lot to process at once (assuming they review the spend before authorising the bonus).

Just reading more recent posts, seen approvals are coming through pretty quickly. I pulled the pin and applied on Sunday night, sent in my pay slips immediately. They’ve since come back for copies of my payroll statements to prove the $$ actually hit the account and now have come back for more payslips.

I’m an ordinary PAYG earner, thought would be easy. Have they been tightening up more recently? Any one else had a similar experience?

I am self employed and suppled a notice of assessment and details of my income and expenses but they also seem keen on seeing proof of banking.
I am going to have a go at talking to them but if they are based in the phillipines I might just give up

Update
Rang today and had to be referred to a supervisor.
2 further calls due to their server and supervisor being unavailable then approved on thebphone with text at same time.
Phone call and CSO quality much better than Citibank

I was conditionally approved but am having a lot of trouble getting them to accept my proof of income documents. I literally sent PDF bank statements from the last 3 months and they responded back saying they didn't show my income! The Call center is hopeless and have offered no advice. I have even been into a branch and they could see no reason why the documents have been rejected. Very frustrating.

 

[albyd]

Finally got approved this evening. I called and gave them a nudge to see if there was anything I could explain. They were a little confused about my having 2 payslips a month. I explained it then got the approval email

And text a few hours later. Looking forward to receiving my new card.
