  • +2

    This is very good, almost worth a separate deal…

    • Why so good? What’s the criteria

      • +1

        To be eligible for coverage Eligible Persons must have a contract with a mobile phone provider and a monthly automatic billing arrangement using their eligible NAB card

        Seems to only apply to those who are on contract (i.e. no Boost 12 mth prepaid sims or Belong $19/mth)

  • nab is no good for churners , 18 months waiting period

    • Got nab qantas 6 months back, still eligibility for this bonus ?

      • This bonus points offer is not available to existing customers who have received or are entitled to receive NAB Rewards Bonus Points for a new personal NAB Rewards credit card or NAB Home Loan in the 18 months prior to the opening of a NAB Rewards Signature Card or NAB Rewards Platinum Card.

      • NAB run separate exclusion periods for their program (NAB rewards) and QFF cards.

    • What happens if reapply before 18 months from last account closure? Do they reject you outright at application or they will grant you the card but not give you the bonus points after meeting the required spending amount?

      • +2

        approval is subject to your serviceability and credit history. however no bonus points

        • Ok. So probably have to keep track on when last cancelled and wait out the required waiting period before applying again.

          • @Eugklng: Yes, applied 13 months after previous card and we didn't automatically receive bonus qantas points on it, so they definitely track/remember your last card. They did provide us points after making a complaint due to some misleading info in our particular instance… not worth the risk

    • The waiting period commences from when the last bonus points were received, not from the last card closure:
      From the T&C: This bonus points offer is not available to existing customers who have received or are entitled to receive NAB Rewards Bonus Points for a new personal NAB Rewards credit card or NAB Home Loan in the 18 months prior to the opening of a NAB Rewards Signature Card or NAB Rewards Platinum Card.

      I had the Qantas variant and held these close to the anniversary before closing (great earn rates and requirements for travel insurance). In practice, I can close the card and be able to re-apply within the next 7-9 months.

    ROI in $? Someone do the hardwork pls

    • If you stick around for 12 months and simply do a gift card say Apple Card or Coles/JB/Kmart/Myer etc for 160,000 points that $783

  • +1

    Will the annual fee $145 get partially refunded once monthly fee kicks in?

    • +1

      After 12th June, new rate is 24/ mth. You will receive pro rata refund

      • I was hoping they don't charge you until next year, as you "prepaid" for a year.

  • +2

    same card with velocity offer is better if you’re going after Velocity points.
    lower fee >$95
    lower spend requirement> $1000
    (https://www.nab.com.au/personal/credit-cards/nab-rewards-car…)

    • No flybuys?

      • maybe yes, I remember I saw some discussion here saying that if you not provide velocity membership for auto transfer, the bonus point will still be credited to you. Then you can manually transfer it to other program. But I haven't tried myself.

  • So if you go for the 160,000 points, you get roughly $780 in gifts card, but yet you pay $145 then $295 annual fees, so after your $440 in fees, you really get roughly $340 in gift cards (If you go for gift cards that is). Might be better off going the ANZ $1,500 spend get $300 credit, if you trust your applications being looked through by overseas third parties as ANZ outsource this part of its banking.

    • Why would you pay $295 annual fee? It’s changing to monthly per links above

      So at most for 13 months you pay $169

      • $24 a month for twelve months is $288 isn't it?

        So how does that work out to $169?

        • But it’s a monthly fee so you should be only charged $24 per month after first year.. and if you spend $5000 per months it’s also refunded… and so if you cancel after 13 months only 1 month fee + 1st year fee should be charged

          Unless I am reading the changes wrong

          Current

          • $295 annual fee
          • No spend fee waiver
          • 3% international transaction fee

          New

          • $24 monthly fee
          • Spend fee waiver (Monthly fee will be reversed when you spend $5,000 or more in a statement period)
          • No international transaction fee
          • +1

            @its: My reading if the conditions is that you pay the annual fee, then in June they will refund the pro-rata remainder and you pay the $24 a month after that.

            • @ZuluOz: It's even better. It's converted to the monthly fee. So seems you'll be given a pro rata refund and then charged a reduce monthly fee, but the fee is waived if you do spend over the $5k. So you could actually get away with a fee of only around $24 (145/12 * 2).

              See below.
              "If you have an annual fee that is lower than the $295 p.a. under a reduced annual fee offer, you will keep your reduced annual fee value for the offer period and it will be converted to a monthly fee. Your monthly fee will revert to $24 per month at the end of that offer period. The monthly fee waiver will still apply."

    Brilliant deal! Signed up today, nab approved within 12 hours

    • +1

      I was surprised and impressed to get approved within 8 hours as a non-NAB customer.

      However, I don't know whether there was potentially a better deal (e.g. lower annual fee) for existing customers through the NAB online banking or app. Oh well.

      • Yeah there was mate, i got it for 295 but just realised this post was the normal nab signature but i signed up to the qantas version. Either way i think you get the reduced fee for the life of the card!

  • But why?

    Just go for this deal instead, you may still choose 120k reward points or 60k Velocity and just need to spend at least $1k with a a $95 fee.

    • That offer says it'll auto convert to Velocity points though, how do you stop that from happening?

      • +1

        Login to the app and click to go to nab rewards to turn it off.

  • NAB treat their Rewards & Qantas credit cards separately right?, as it pertains to the 18 months bonus exclusion period.

  • I got this deal for the accor membership program, if you auto convert the points you get gold membership and the points are worth about $660 for hotel stays 👌

    • Isn't the gold membership a fast-track program? You get the ALL points but for gold you need one (1) paid stay right?

      • Did you have to pay the reduced annual fee of $145 or full annual fee of $295
        Just checking if you can sign up on this link and then auto convert to ALL after approval if thats ok

    • Can you auto-convert a bit later (right before you need an hotel night in order to activate it)? Or you must set auto-convert when you signup?

  • hi I cannot find any 12 month or 18 month cooling off period, is the terms condition changed?

    • Didn't look very hard: This bonus points offer is not available to existing customers who have received or are entitled to receive NAB Rewards Bonus Points for a new personal NAB Rewards credit card or NAB Home Loan in the 18 months prior to the opening of a NAB Rewards Signature Card or NAB Rewards Platinum Card.

  • Thanks for sharing. Applied (finally after 3 tries, seems to time out easy). Approved instantly.

    • 3 tries for the same card on the same week?

  • Thanks OP, after further investigation, this seems to be the best offer for my use! (Finally a reward CC with 0% international transaction fee, starting from June)
