Spotted this deal on a Facebook ad - basically open up an Access Advantage transaction account with ANZ and make three Visa debit purchases (in stores, online or over the phone, excludes reversals and ATM withdrawals) on the card that is linked to your ANZ Access Advantage account before 8 January 2017.

You'll then get a code to redeem a $100 Myer, Woolworths, JB Hi-Fi, David Jones, Woolworths Caltex, Coles, Flight Centre, Spa.com.au or Kmart gift card.

The account attracts a $5 monthly fee, but is waived if you deposit at least $2,000 per month into the account or meet other criteria (see below).

This offer is only available to new or existing ANZ customers, who do not have an ANZ Access Advantage account as at 13 November 2016.

*No monthly account service fee on your new account if you deposit at least $2,000 a month. Otherwise, it's a $5 fee per month.

You can also apply to waive the monthly account service fee on one nominated ANZ Access Advantage account if you:

  • Are under 25 or aged 60 or over
  • Are a full-time student at an Australian educational institution
  • Receive a disability support pension or mobility allowance from Centrelink
  • Have an ANZ Home Loan, an ANZ Residential Investment Loan or an ANZ Portfolio Facility and have your salary paid into your account
  • Have a combined deposit balance of $50,000 in one or more of the following ANZ accounts: ANZ Access Advantage, Access Select, Premium Cash Management, Online Saver, Progress Saver, ANZ term deposits, V2 Plus, Passbook Savings, Premier Cheque.

Offer Terms:

  • The offer is limited to one unique Reward Code per customer that can be redeemed for a Digital Reward valued at $100. Joint accounts count as one customer and are only eligible for a single unique Reward Code; and

  • Subject to meeting the eligibility criteria, an unique Reward Code will be emailed to an email address registered to the new ANZ Access Advantage account by 8 February 2017; and

  • ANZ can withdraw this offer at any time between 14 November and 18 December 2016.

    • xyron on 15/11/2016 - 14:56

      or just use a NAB savings account, which attracts no annual fee. NAB (in conjunction with RediATM) also has more ATMs than ANZ which has the lowest number of ATMs out of the big-4. absolutely no reason to have an ordinary transactional account with ANZ (save for if you wanted to take advantage of this offer and close the account).

          I cancelled my ANZ about 2 years ago but didn't get any identity checks, neither for NAB or IGN etc when applying. So I guess it depends on your credit rating etc.

      • jacross on 18/11/2016 - 10:06

        Yeah the Ozbargain way is to completely ignore the cost of time. So many 'deals' that involve way too much loss of time/dignity.

        • coxymla on 18/11/2016 - 12:31

          Actually, I think people do tend to account for the cost of time, but in this day and age opening a savings account (at a bank who claims to want new customers, and wants its customers to use internet banking, etc.) should not involve any effort or going into a branch at all.

          Of course it hasn't actually turned out that way which leads to the sunk cost fallacy and me probably going into my local brach after work this afternoon for a stupid in-person "ID check".

          @citygal: I believe that we have to be smarter here. Put $2000, make $1 purchase, transfer $1999 to ANZ online saver. Do the same following month until you get the voucher, transfer the full amount from ANZ online to Access, transfer the full amount to another bank account. Close Access and ANZ online saver account. Lesson learnt from past bad experience with other financial institution.

        • citygal on 17/11/2016 - 18:55

          @yht:
          Yeah, that's way to get around it. But that's the option if you don't want to open another saving account considering the interest rate isn't really great.

      • bluesky on 30/11/2016 - 23:59

        If I open 2 ANZ accounts, this, and the online saver (which gives high interest), and link the online saver to this account. Each month, can I move $2000 from the online saver to this account. And right back to online saver.

        Will this (movement of funds between 2 ANZ accounts) qualify as depositing $2000?

        I ask because with ING and Ubank, to qualify for bonus conditions, the deposit must come from an external bank account.

        Thanks in advance.
