Depends on your values. I am against debt in principle. It is morally wrong (enslaving debtors, ruining the planet, overproducing, consumerism etc. etc.). It is not an accident that Jesus only once used force - to kick out money changers out of the temple. And I find it highly morally satisfying to rip off banks and big corporations as much as I can. I consider it my duty. Which is why I was the biggest bludger in the department I worked in the bank back in the days and I am still the biggest bludger in one of the largest corporations in Australia (working now).
ANZ called me in the morning asking me to send payslips. Greedy bastards will never learn.
@johndoe1:
They may pity me, but I will have no mercy on them until the day they collapse. Keep ripping them off as much as I can.@johndoe1:
One day a terrible fire broke out in a forest - a huge woodlands was suddenly engulfed by a raging
wild fire. Frightened, all the animals fled their homes and ran out of the forest. As they came to the
edge of a stream they stopped to watch the fire and they were feeling very discouraged and
powerless. They were all bemoaning the destruction of their homes. Every one of them thought
there was nothing they could do about the fire, except for one little hummingbird.
This particular hummingbird decided it would do something. It swooped into the stream and picked
up a few drops of water and went into the forest and put them on the fire. Then it went back to the
stream and did it again, and it kept going back, again and again and again. All the other animals
watched in disbelief; some tried to discourage the hummingbird with comments like, "Don't bother,
it is too much, you are too little, your wings will burn, your beak is too tiny, it’s only a drop, you
can't put out this fire."
And as the animals stood around disparaging the little bird’s efforts, the bird noticed how hopeless
and forlorn they looked. Then one of the animals shouted out and challenged the hummingbird in a
mocking voice, "What do you think you are doing?" And the hummingbird, without wasting time or
losing a beat, looked back and said, "I am doing what I can."@johndoe1: maybe not to those corporations but make difference to him self, ie $200 is an okay amount enough to buy gadgets on ozb.
@johndoe1:
Which is why I switch a company well before they realise what I am doing. Trust me, I perfected the system.@johndoe1:
Love to bludge matey, love to bludge. EDIT: I got approved. Work the system against itself matey until it collapses to the dustbin of history.@johndoe1:
Read about peak oil, fractional reserve banking and climate change. It is clear as 1+1=2.@johndoe1:
I am not trying to prove anything, you come here and comment on my behaviour and I tell you why I do the things I do. I am not your tutor or research mentor.[@noskich] and [@johndoe1] please continue your discussion in private maybe better? Kind of off topic…
Is this card better than the amex platinum edge?
Can you buy something privately, but pay through paypal using this CC and this will be considered an eligible purchase? Or do you have to buy things from a storefront?
Just got a call from ANZ today. They said this deal is not available to me but the 75000 points one does. But it requires spending 2500 within 3 months.
How did you initiated the question? Online chat? went to branch?
They just called me and said the $200 dollars deal is no longer valid and the card I am applying actually don't have any active promotion ATM.
And then they suggested the $2500 spend for 50000 points promotion.
Definitely NOT targeted. I got no emails or invitations and was asked to send payslips today. Edit: Just got approved :)
did a walk in to nearest branch near my office, the staff said the offer only for online. quite disappointing.
Yup online only they give me card without offer i have cancel them luckily havent spent a cent
Are payments to utilities (water, electricity, gas) eligible purchases towards the $500?
Yes.
cApplied and got approved. However, no mention of the $200 cashback bonus anywhere in the offer letter or the Welcome pack. Any info on that please?
you better call and triple confirm your card has that offer before spending a cent.
better sure than regretI called and double checked both the credit cash back and fee waiver. Had to speak to 2 ppl but they can see it in the system.
For the fee waiver however I had to talk to the retention team as the activation team could not see that part apparently.Yeah only supervisor has access to see offer related to cc opening. About waiver, it should started in the offer letter you get in the mail. Please read again?
i tried to apply and got error "Unfortunately the promotional offer you have selected cannot be found or has expired.
You can view ANZ's wide range of credit cards at https://www.anz.com/creditcards. If you are not automatically redirected within 10 seconds, please click on https://www.anz.com/creditcards" is there any other current url link that i can use?That's strange as it still appears for me with the link at the top of this OP.
Maybe it was down temporarily when you tried??It sais also that it expires on the 18th May.
seems to be working again
I know they say cashback will be credited within 2 months, but has anyone had their cashback come through yet?
$500 spend met on 03/05, cashback credited on 25/05. Not bad!
missed out, I hope they bring it back.
Just paid car rego, car insurance, and bi monthly water rates.
A couple larger shopping outings at supermarket……and I'm not very far off spending 2500.In hindsight, I could have but this figure easily.

Borrowing ia not always bad there are smart borrowing and dumb borrowing. I believe many people here with $100k hard cash saving in ing direct ready to spent but still using credit card daily, to get 45 days free interest on purchasing.
