The ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures card could take you across Australia with a complimentary return domestic flight with Virgin Australia each year you hold the card, when you spend $500 on eligible purchases in the first three months of approval1. Plus, as an introductory offer, you could earn a bonus 60,000 Velocity Points when you spend your $500 on eligible purchases in the first 3 months of approval2.
Just got my 60k points also, waited approximately 2 weeks after making purchases worth $500
Just applied for this after hearing people getting their 60k points :)
Got my 60k, did the instructions left by others which was to call up ANZ rewards, ask them to link my Velocity account then completed $500 spend
My points are in too. Nice!
Can I ask one question? I've booked a flight to Fiji in Jan, so is it possible to request 2 lounge passes and use them for my international flight? I read the information on ANZ website that I can only use for Virgin domestic flights. Thanks.
Just received my points, I think i will sell my flights do the passes just arrive in the mail? I was hoping to use them for a air new Zealand flight as they are a partner with virgin?
how are you planning on selling the flight if it has to be booked in primary cardholder's name?
Has anyone booked the flights before? Are they as good as the Amex ones in terms of flight availability?
When they will post Virgin Domestic lounge Passes ? I already spent $500
don't you need to call them to request the passes?
Not had my velocity points turn up but I must say these cards are great for traveling.
I was a newbie to travel cards but using your card as you do at home with the same rate as withdrawing large sums of cash is great.
I used to just use debit cards and withdraw the max.
This probably works out cheaper as theres no ATM fee but still uses the VISA/AMEX forex exchange as far as i can see
How does one go about getting these complementary return domestic flights after qualifying?
Just need to call ANZ Rewards. I booked minethis week. 5 minutes on the phone from go to whoa, very easy process.
Anyone received their bonus points recently?
I applied mid November and instantly spent $500.00. I have not received the 60K points yet. A mate signed up after me and already got his. Called ANZ Rewards customer service without success. Anybody else in a similar situation?
have you supplied your velocity number to anz rewards?
Yes I did, a few days after I received the card. Also re-confirmed on the phone that the correct number was linked…Not impressed with ANZ!
when I linked mine, they told me it would take up to 3 months from reaching $500 spend, it ended up only taking a bit over a month
I still haven't received my points… hit the spend in November..
Did you call them to update the velocity membership number?
Yep. The day I activated my cards.
Points just dropped! :D now just for my wife's to come though.
Just got my points!
I gave them my Velocity number when I first called up to activate my card in November but I'm not sure if it was linked then (didn't even have online banking with ANZ at that point). I also only recently changed the email linked to my Velocity account to be the same email I use for ANZ Rewards a couple of weeks ago, so maybe that helped too.
Anyone still waiting?
Thanks OP, got my points! Signed up and activated just before Christmas, reached the $500 at the start of January and points came through yesterday. I linked auto-redeem to Velocity in my ANZ Rewards account, not sure if it helped but never had to call or anything, just came through and I even got an email from Velocity saying my transfer had been successful.
I applied before 5pm today. However I didn't get instantly approved and have to upload two recent payslips. I should be eligible for the bonus points based on the T&C's right? It didn't mention anything about being approved by 15 Feb.
I applied at end of Dec and I am still waiting for the bonus points :(
thank you
