Happy 1st day of October.

Here is a latest credit card deal from St George / BOM / BankSA.

Cost more in fee than the last deal but 10K more QFF points and need spend at least $4,500 (min $1500 each month for 3 months).

Pay $99 fee, spend $1,500 within 3 months and get 70K QFF points.

T&Cs, eligibility criteria, fees and charges apply.

Amplify Platinum Bonus Qantas Points Offer:

The bonus Qantas Points promotion is available when you apply and are approved for a new Amplify Platinum Amplify Qantas credit card between 1st October 2020 and 9th February 2021, and spend $1,500 or more each month for the first 3 months from card approval on eligible purchases on an Amplify Platinum Amplify Qantas credit card.

Eligible purchases do not include interest, fees and charges, cash or ATM cash advances, cash equivalent transactions, gambling transactions, payments to the Australian Tax Office, government charges, BPAY or similar transactions (such as Post Billpay), refunds and balance transfers debited to the card account.

Existing customers who currently hold an Amplify, Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature card issued by St. George, Bank of Melbourne or BankSA, or who have held one in the last 12 months, are not eligible for this offer. The bonus Points will be credited to your Points balance within 12 weeks after the eligible spend criteria is met.

It's St George, hate them or love them, you decide. I'm still on my spending requirement for the Citibank deal at the moment so will look into this around Dec for Christmas spending.

    You should fix the title as can be misleading.. I believe you need to spend $1500 each month for 3months

    "spend $1,500 or more each month for the first 3 months"

      Oof, good catch. That changes it quite a bit

    • FatGPT on 01/10/2020 - 14:33

      Agreed, that takes minimum total spend to $4,500, which, while not excessive for 70k QFF points, is annoying in that you need to make sure you hit the $1,500 for each month, and can't just spend it in one go in month one to secure the points… a big drawback of this offer.

        Agreed. Sorry guys, didn't read the T&C closely.

        Updated title & description.

    These guys are slow!!!! Still haven't got my points from last offer!!!

    • bohn on 01/10/2020 - 14:43

      Some people are reporting that St George can't even see that they are entitled to the points at all.
      I need to ring them about it.

  • gimme on 01/10/2020 - 15:06

    Personally I don't think this is as good as the deal a couple of months ago https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/543234
    Half the fee and lower spent threshold for 10k less

    • timhn on 01/10/2020 - 15:51

      Total agreed. I was excited at first when saw the higher bonus points and under impression of only need spending $1500 within 3 months - instead $1500/month minimum for 3 months.

      $4.5K for 3 months is quite tough - and must keep track of only need $1.5K/month (to carry the spending in the following month) is quite a hassle.

  • Networks919 on 01/10/2020 - 15:11

    Applied for the last deal at the last minute. Gave them a call they said it would take 10 business days to do the checks. Looks like a lot of people applied for this card as well. An unusually long time. A bit strange as it usually doesn't take that long to get approved.

    • Poolprouk on 02/10/2020 - 11:00

      Really? I applied on 30 Sep and got full approval confirmation just over 24 hours later. Are your circumstances complex?

      • Networks919 on 02/10/2020 - 11:54

        Applied through Telesales (by phone). They actually said they would give me first year free + the 60k Qantas Points but not sure if that will turn out to be true. Can play the waiting game if need be. Still have an offer to churn. Maybe doing it by phone is why it is taking so long.

        • Poolprouk on 06/11/2020 - 12:37

          Have you had a bill yet with your annual fee waiver?

          I got charged $99 when i was expecting $49 but when i looked at the webpage history I couldn't see any reference to a $49 annual fee.

          hmm.

          • Networks919 on 06/11/2020 - 12:44

            @Poolprouk: Yeah completely wiped off… but cant see if I'm enrolled into Qantas or Amplify until my 1st statement. Made it clear that I wanted the Qantas points Offer though.

            Think the deal is over as they moved onto the 70k offer + 99 annual fee.

  • gazer on 01/10/2020 - 15:59

    Thanks OP. Have had this card before, application was quick and painless, applepay, decent mobile app. altogether a good exp. these points/fees were better than what i got at the time!

      Took ANZ 3 months and multiple emails and calls for them to recognise they had "lost" the application. I should hope this would be better…

  • Spazmos on 01/10/2020 - 16:25

    "Existing customers who currently hold an Amplify, Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature card issued by St. George, Bank of Melbourne or BankSA"
    Does this include additional cardholders of an Amplify card? My partner is the primary cardholder and I am the additional cardholder… would I still qualify if I applied for a separate new card?

    Got declined for this. No idea why.

    $85k salary
    no dependants
    $700 expenses a month
    no debts
    $800k home equity.
    Low mortgage repayments

    I honestly think they looked at how much I pay for the mortgage each month but those are all overpayments and not the min amount required. Very strange indeed

    • thomalfa on 26/10/2020 - 12:36

      I hate applying for st George cards. They're interested to understand how much credit you are given from owning other financial institutes. I was asked to proof the spending (debts) on each card and reduce credit to a certain limit to meet their requirement.

      Even though your actual spending around or close to 700, but they'll use standard living cost in AU depends on where you live as calculation whether you can afford it or not.

      • mouseman99 on 26/10/2020 - 12:57

        found out it is because I overpay my mortgage which is my choice. They didnt quite seem to understand that I'm not liable to pay that and it was my choice.

        • Smol Cat on 12/11/2020 - 15:38

          Can you tell me why you would choose to over pay rather than hold the amount in an offset account? My understanding is that the money in an offset account would be doing the same thing, but available to be withdrawn if needed, where what you over pay is gone and cannot be taken back out.
