I was looking to get a new phone from JB HiFi and came across this $400 gift card deal from St George when you apply for a new Amplify Platinum credit card with Amplify Rewards. You need to spend $3000 in the first 90 days of card approval to get a $400 gift card from either one of 3 shops- JB HiFi, Flight Centre or Bunnings. $99 Annual Fee. Excludes customers who currently hold a Amplify, Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature credit card or have held one in the last 12 months.

Bank of Melbourne has the same $400 gift card offer but you can choose from 3 different gift cards - Sunglass Hut, Sephora or Uber: https://www.bankofmelbourne.com.au/personal/credit-cards/aff…
BankSA is giving $400 gift cards to Myer in addition to JB HiFi & Bunnings: https://www.banksa.com.au/personal/credit-cards/affiliate/am…

    Good deal fyi also

    $49
    annual card fee
    for the first year.

    $99 thereafter

    • evieletur on 21/11/2019 - 21:39

      Where does it say $49 annual card fee for the first year? I can't see it on this deal - says $99 on the page.

    • Pandabargain on 21/11/2019 - 21:40

      Where do you see the discounted card fee??

      • evieletur on 21/11/2019 - 21:41

        I don't think it's on this page. They have that on their regular bank page with bonus points not gift card…

        • cute as duck on 21/11/2019 - 21:43

          You both are correct apologies

          https://www.stgeorge.com.au/personal/credit-cards/rewards/am…

          Discounted first year in above link at the bottom of page. But this is not the same as the OP deal as 100,000 points is over 2 years.

          Therefore OP deal is $99 per year. Sorry to confuse

          • evieletur on 21/11/2019 - 21:48

            @cute as duck: Looks like you get Amplify points with this AND you need to spend $6k AND you only get 70k Amplify points in the first year…how much is 70k Amplify points worth? "Receive 70,000 bonus Amplify Points in year 1 plus a further 30,000 in year 2 when you spend at least $6,000 each year on eligible purchases on your new Amplify Platinum card.+ For example: 100,000 Amplify points currently gets you up to 50,000 Velocity points or $450 in e-Gift cards with Amplify Rewards.>"

    Free money laundering with the card

    Just an friendly reminder that ensure you can pay off your credit card spendings.
    Example
    $3,000 x 19.74% = $592.2 interest per year

    • virtualds on 21/11/2019 - 22:26

      I dont think anyone pays interest on credit card purchase.

        😂

    • asa79 on 22/11/2019 - 09:09

      if you cant pay off before interest free period you shouldnt be getting a card anyway

    Not doing business with Banks that don't abide to money laundering legislation especially that they have had a role in pedophiles access to child abuse material from Asia

    • pennypincher98 on 21/11/2019 - 22:11

      Asking as genuinely as possible, what bank(s) managed to keep a clean record?

      • cnut on 21/11/2019 - 23:50
        +2

        None. They all do it because it’s hard to catch them all. And balance that against complaints if they’re over zealous.

        But people will believe anything the media feeds them.

        • Commenter on 22/11/2019 - 05:26

          Perfectly said. Just like how customs can’t catch all drug imports and so the government is helping drug cartels.

          It’s a balance between speed of money transfer/service vs risk.

          In some countries like PNG, people have to apply to government for approval, get a transfer I’d and then go to the bank to initiate international transfer.

        • pennypincher98 on 22/11/2019 - 07:09

          Exactly. Oh well, I guess it's "fresh" still so people will neg.
          Where as HSBC's scandal now happened 7 years ago, everyone's forgiven and forgotten.

    I won't do business with these scumbags on principle. They'd rather have a dead customer on their hands vs one that is still alive who can easily pay down a debt in the near future!

  • virtualds on 21/11/2019 - 22:23

    Looks like a good deal. $300 profit

  • thydzik on 21/11/2019 - 22:54

    Banks are getting really smart with the minimum 12 month period.

  • [Deactivated] on 21/11/2019 - 22:58

    Is it this card which gives car rental insurance and priority pass access?

    • daft009 on 22/11/2019 - 06:02

      Priority pass is the amplify black

  • WordsToSayIt on 22/11/2019 - 19:39

    Can't find anything on minimum salary and credit card limit required….

  • Pandabargain on 01/12/2019 - 12:27

    Can anyone else apply? looks like it is offline
