Deal link goes to public product page because I couldn't work out how to submit this deal without a link - look at description or screenshot

Found this huge Qantas Points offer in the ANZ app a couple of days ago:

An exclusive offer to ANZ customers only.
Earn 160,000 bonus Qantas Points and $225 back to your new card when you spend $3,000 on eligible purchases in the first 3 months from approval. New card. T&Cs, >eligibility criteria, fees and charges apply (including an Annual Fee, currently $425). Screenshot

You can get to this offer via ANZ Internet Banking in browser, or in the ANZ App.

If you aren't an ANZ customer: I mentioned this offer to a friend who then opened a transaction account and was able to immediately see the offer in their new internet banking and apply for the card. The basic ANZ transaction account is $5 a month, which you can get waived if you deposit $2k into the account each month (doesn't need to stay in the account). You could close the account once you get your bonus points (possibly once you get the card?)

Aside from this massive number of bonus points, card features are:

Earn 1 Qantas Point per $1 spent on eligible purchases up to $7,500 per statement period
A higher Qantas Points earn rate compared to all other ANZ Frequent Flyer cards
Uncapped Qantas Points
Complimentary Frequent Flyer Membership and a discount on a 1 year Qantas Club membership
Two complimentary Qantas Club lounge invitations each year
Complimentary insurances including International Travel Insurance
Up to 55 days interest free on purchases

You can see the general details of the card (at it's usual lower offer value) here

I think this might be the highest consumer bonus points offer available at the moment, I certainly haven't seen any higher recently.

If you haven't earned Qantas Points from a credit card in the past 12 months, you may be able to stack with the New Cardholder Bonus of 20,000 points (from Qantas). The ANZ Black card is listed on the relevant page, and it doesn't specify that you have to click through the Qantas page to get the offer, but I haven't tried! The New Cardholder Bonus from Qantas ends on March 31 (there's no end date listed for the ANZ card offer).

Edit: Clarified end date in post applies to 20k top-up offer, not 160k sign-up offer.

  It depends on when they considered your card closed. If you go into internet banking and press close on a card it will earn you that the account isnt closed until all pending transactions settle and the account is paid in full.
  - OzBestDeal on 18/05/2022 - 21:39
    
    Yes it's not very clear when they consider it closed. Even the closure letter doesn't specify definite date.

        @Booster: Got the $225 back on 6/5, statement date 20/5, points yesterday..I did pay the bill asap but I don't think that has anything to do with it. Check your statement, if it says you've earned the points, it also references your qantas QFF account number, and I expect that it would be just a matter of time.
        
        Booster on 26/05/2022 - 08:46
        
        @bluedufflecoat: I see 3300 points transferred yesterday into my QFF account. So fair to assume I've met the brief? And now just a waiting game? No mention of additional points or $225 cashback yet.

        @bluedufflecoat: Whichever statement you get your $3k spend in, you'll get the 160k points in the next statement.
        
        You can see this yourself when you log onto ANZ banking, select the FF card, then on the left side click reward points.
        
        Once you have met the spend, you will see
        
        Bonus Qantas Frequent Flyer points earned this period 160 000
        
        The $225 amount should arrive within a week of your statement where you meet the $3k spend.

        @bluedufflecoat: First statement was on the 25/4. That was a total of $425 for card fees. Paid that off a couple days after.
        
        2nd statement was a total of $3350 on the 22/5. But as said - no refund of $225 or the 160k points are provided.
        
        I have seen the 3350 points being transferred (that I earnt) to my QFF.

        Assume I would see the refund of $225 at the same time I see the points? As in, wait to see the $225 being refunded and know the points should be close by?
        
        Will give it a few days. Thanks for the info!

        @Booster: I completed my $3k spend on my second statement which arrived 18th May, received the $225 on 20th May. From this logic, you should have your $225 by 29th May (within a week from statement) and the points show show up in your 'reward points' around that time too.
        
        Haven't received the 160k points yet, but I can see it pending in the current period which I will see in next statement.

Definitely concur with some other members here saying the process is difficult.

This is the 3rd time I'm applying for this same card and everytime they haven't made it easy.

This time they're asking for 2 years of income tax returns, latest home loan statements to prove my declared repayment amount is correct and to prove my claim the mortgage is under joint names, digging into my dividend income history, asking for closure letter of another credit card.

Previous CC application experiences with St George and NAB were way better

  Update: uploaded more docs last Friday after they asked. Haven't heard back since so I called in today to follow up.
  
  Asked me today to provide share holding portfolio as additional. They did not ask me to provide this last week… This is never ending.
  - runamuck on 24/05/2022 - 16:28
    
    This is your 3rd time applying for the same card and each time they haven't made it easy yet you still choose to apply for it. I guess you can't really complain as you already know what to expect.

Finally got approved. Felt like an unnecessary struggle. Initially rejected, had to call up to find out why and got the "our overall assessment did not allow us to approve."

Had never been rejected before so I was a bit taken aback. Pretty much gave up at that point but I got a call an hr later from the same lady saying she did a second reassessment and spoke to her higher ups and finally got it approved.

I would've just left it after the first declined notice but after reading comments about calling up, it turned out positive this time

  Spoke to rep for the fourth time today, this time they wanted to run through expenses, only to be told that I'm unsuccessful for the card, despite me cancelling the Rewards Black (same $15k limit!). I was also taken aback, and argued why I was rejected as previously held Rewards Black and this time have a slight increment in my salary.
  
  They've now asked me to supply statement of my home loan for review. Unsure if I should give up but feel it's a bit wasted to have a credit check but not get the card!

    So they still decided to reject my application- received e-mail update today. First rejection for a CC application :(
    
    I'm guessing this will still be a hit to credit check/score?
    - trotsky on 28/05/2022 - 23:23
      
      The initial enquiry is the hit, although other lenders can put 2 and 2 together when you have an enquiry but no new account shows up.
      
      That said, credit scoring is a crazy business and the only way you really get hit hard is lots of enquiries of the same credit type in a short period, or defaults. So if you take your time before applying for the next card, I doubt it will hurt you.
      - Craze on 29/05/2022 - 10:57
        
        @trotsky: Thanks for explaining, to be safe I will wait for a little bit before applying for the next card. Will be having visitors end June so thought it'll be easy to rake up spend for the points!
        
        Before putting in this application I went for the Optus tablet deal and Telstra nbn offer, do they fall under the same credit type?
ontoastrye on 20/05/2022 - 15:59

if you do a balance transfer from old cc to new cc (this cc) - does the previous institution still give you the points? especially where it has been earned that month as yet?
- vawiyoci on 20/05/2022 - 16:57
  
  +1
  
  If you're talking about your old card, only ever close a card / transfer the balance after the points have landed in your QFF account. I've chatted with amex and nab about this waaay back when I first started churning and they've all said that the points are forfeited if they haven't been dispensed for that month yet. I doubt they've gotten more flexible or generous since then.

I got the 160k Qantas points and $225 cashback yesterday.

Took around 3 weeks after meeting the spend requirement.

I only paid bills via Beem It so can confirm these transactions are eligible.

Onto the next card!

Beware of this fine print if you are ordering additional card for your partner. I ordered one thinking it is only $10, stung by another $55 reward fee…"an annual Additional Cardholder Fee of $10 and an annual Rewards Program Services Fee of $55 will apply per additional cardholder on the account. "

  Neither, it is from when ANZ system records card closure. Not always necessary the same day as when you cancel the card.

    yes thanks for this i read the T&C thoroughly and can confirm now that my previous card was the ANZ travel rewards card, so I should be eligible for the points.
    
    EDIT: my application was immediately rejected. Income certainly not the issue as I make more than double the requirement. I do have 4 other credit cards. About 300k in mortgage but clearly able to pay off my liabilities based on the testing.

      to all the naysayers here - just an update, i'm through to the payslips part of the application - give 13 33 33 a ring, chat with a phone rep and it'll more than likely get you on your way to approval. The online application is a minefield for rejection, one wrong input and you could be headed for instant rejection.
BigTank on 01/06/2022 - 18:50

Looks like this is now reduced to 130k?

When logged into my internet banking it says 160k points but when clicking through to the offer it says 130k

edit - all good, I turned off add blocker as per above

Just got approved, after getting initially declined. I think a slight salary bump helped out a bit.

Is there anyway to confirm the offer is active on my account? Since I think a rep 'reapplied' for the card when I asked about why I was declined.
- Craze on 05/06/2022 - 09:57
  
  Did you reapply by submitting a new application, or just contacted ANZ about the rejection? I was declined too so wondering if I can challenge that

    I just contacted ANZ. Sent an email to anzcards @anz. com with my reference number and asked for some reasonings. Got a call back and they asked for a bunch of documents. Took just under three weeks from the first email to get an approval SMS.

Just about to finish up my Amex Explorer. Is it worth getting this card or the NAB one for my next churner?

  IIRC Black should be $75k minimum.

  It’s 75k……verified by your documents
