    sigh, I didn't get the text.

    has anyone successfully troubleshoot the issue through calling?

  • krazek on 17/12/2022 - 15:19

    Anyone know if I need to keep the card open for the $95 travel credit?

    • nightelves on 19/12/2022 - 10:20

      Quite possibly.

      • krazek on 19/12/2022 - 10:34

        I think I'm just going to close the card anyway. Not worth keeping it open for 4 additional months to just receive a $95 credit, and I might still receive it anyway given it's coming from Virgin it seems.

        • nightelves on 19/12/2022 - 11:36

          Can you check if you get a pro-rata refund from ANZ as well?

  • prisonmike on 20/12/2022 - 19:35

    What’s is the number to call ANZ credit card service ? I have tried call their credit card team and was on hold for nearly 1hr.

  • DModjo on 21/12/2022 - 14:37

    I also haven’t gotten the text or email yet. I expect that customers are qualified on a monthly basis so it might be that we need to wait until around 5th-10th of Jan until the next round or something. I hit the $1500 spend around the 8th of Dec and have since auto-redeemed the points. So I’ll wait until mid-Jan before following up.

  • Jj456 on 22/12/2022 - 21:49

    I forgot to turn on auto redemption…. Have put about 6k through the card. Have just turned it on so will transfer 7k points to velocity tomorrow.

    Will I need to put another 1.5k on the card?

    Card opened on 21 October so have until 21 Jan if needed.

    • bohn on 23/12/2022 - 08:00

      Will I need to put another 1.5k on the card?

      yes

  • bidam on 22/12/2022 - 23:34

    So called ANZ - apparently it's because i was 9 days away from my 12 month exclusion period which is complete horseshit.
    I closed my card in like July which is MONTHS before October..

    Anyway they have put in a 'request' and said it should probably be fine.

    Will keep everyone posted. Just goes to show, you should get a formal letter when closing credit cards so this doesn't happen.

    • bohn on 23/12/2022 - 08:02

      Well, the dates do show in creditsavvy.
      Also, when you cancel an ANZ card, if it is your only card, your ANZ internet banking will stop working. If you have more than one ANZ account, it will disappear from your internet banking.

      There are ways to keep an eye on it.

      • tess1988 on 23/12/2022 - 08:46

        Well, the dates do show in creditsavvy,
        Thanks… I know finder no longer does, does any other credit score company show dates for closing credit cards, which one is the best, so any provide notification or email alerts when people take out credit or 12
        Months after account is closed?

        • bohn on 23/12/2022 - 08:50

          just put it in google calendar if you are a churner ;)

    • JHoliday on 23/12/2022 - 11:07

      Which is the best number to call to get through to the right place?

      • bidam on 24/12/2022 - 15:49

        regular number, anz rewards couldnt help

    Still waiting for the $95 Virgin Flight Credit - Hopefully sooner rather than later.

  • Alexandra39 on 29/12/2022 - 11:32

    I’ve received my points etc and they are appearing in virgin velocity however when I attempt to redeem a flight it says insufficient points and that I only have 1k points, even though it says I have 75k points when I’m on the Home Screen and look at profile.
    Is this happening to anyone else? I didn’t think there were any exclusions with redeeming for flights?

    • JHoliday on 29/12/2022 - 11:55

      When did you receive the points? I had this problem the other day when transferring points to a family member. Even though the points were showing in their account, I was getting an error when trying to book the flights saying not enough points. I think it takes a while for Virgin systems to all catch up.

      • Alexandra39 on 29/12/2022 - 12:12

        Ahh maybe that’s it, but it’s been about a week since they transferred so I would have thought it would be working by now. Do you know how long is took for yours to work, or are you still waiting?

        • JHoliday on 29/12/2022 - 12:48

          I gave up after even waiting overnight and still getting the same error, so ended up booking the flight with cash. Very annoying Virgin can't get their shit together.

    • Schumi5 on 02/01/2023 - 08:03
      +1

      @alexandra39 There is a known bug in the system, it should prompt you to login again or try clicking back in web browser and trying again and it should work.

      Otherwise log out search for the flight and once you select the flight it should prompt you to login and system will se you have enough points.

      • Alexandra39 on 04/01/2023 - 15:43

        Thanks for your reply. Just tried this and no luck still saying I only have 1k points! Think I’m going to have to call someone ughhhh. If you have any other tips let me know.

  • OzBerghainer on 02/01/2023 - 12:09

    Where can we find our Travel Credit? Perhaps it will be 3 months after activation? Would it arrive via email?

  • mitchsaun on 03/01/2023 - 09:48

    Is anyone still waiting to receive the SMS or email to input their Velocity number to claim the Velocity SC & Points?

    Signed up 07/10
    Approved 10/10
    Hit spend requirement during November statement period

    Followed up with ANZ just before Christmas, they advised the correct offer is applied and they told me at the time to wait until the whole 3 months has passed (which is next week).

    Is it worth chasing them up again?

    • JHoliday on 03/01/2023 - 12:13

      Yes I am still waiting as well :(

      • spav99 on 03/01/2023 - 12:28

        Same case with me. No points yet
        I called them yesterday . got the same response to wait 3 months.
        Don't know what is wrong

    • Uzb9811 on 03/01/2023 - 15:15

      Yes, I’m waiting too. I met the spend requirements before the end of October so it’s coming up to the three months. I’m sure I’ve met every condition.

      I’m not expecting anything to happen automatically at this point and it could end up being a hassle to chase them up.

    • jetblack on 04/01/2023 - 08:49

      Haven't received squat, either. On a similar time frame to you.

    • spav99 on 09/01/2023 - 09:52

      Did anyone receive points recently? Just want to know if at all they processed another batch of sms/email with redemption links?

  • cathalm8 on 03/01/2023 - 14:07

    I forgot to turn on auto redemption, whoops!

    Now I cant turn it on because it wont let me enter my velocity number, tried using multiple browsers. It keeps auto deleting whatever I enter.

    • cathalm8 on 03/01/2023 - 14:29

      Might be an issue with the rewards website. I finally got my velocity number added by doing a manual transfer. However it wont let me turn on auto redemption.

      • cathalm8 on 03/01/2023 - 15:02

        Painful, but got it working

        • J6 on 25/01/2023 - 15:52

          Have the same issue, how did you get past it?

  • hotdish on 04/01/2023 - 10:26

    For those who are long awaiting points, SC, cash back etc I called up ANZ Rewards (as above, can't help they don't do loyalty scheme admin) so called up ANZ. Initially they tried to phob me off (back) to ANZ Rewards but eventually looked it up, confirmed I met the spend criteria and they manually asked for my velocity number as it "wasn't in the system".

    Told them, no $heet, you're supposed to send me an SMS/email when I hit my spend, never happened. They pushed back that points will come max after 3 months after opening the card or by the 3rd card statement. I should get my points by the end of the week.

    Pays to ring up ANZ, they are hopeless!

    • JHoliday on 04/01/2023 - 14:21

      Called ANZ as well today, the told me I need to wait the 3 months and basically call again in February. Told them I know other people who signed up and already received the points etc and do I need to give them my Velocity Number over the phone. She took my Velocity Number then checked and said there is no need to enter it into their system because auto redemption is turned on and I need to wait 3 months and call back in Feb.

  • Banana on 05/01/2023 - 08:31

    Still waiting on the $95 travel credit…met spending requirement end of Oct and got my points start of Dec.

  • auindie on 05/01/2023 - 10:26

    Has anyone received the Virgin flight credit. Its been ages and no news still

    • Traya1 on 05/01/2023 - 17:39

      Nope, still waiting for Virgin flight credit - Seems like others are also.

    • maverick1 on 09/01/2023 - 12:42

      nothing yet. Got the points back in Dec. I'm done waiting, probably going to close my account in couple of days.

      • bohn on 09/01/2023 - 12:56

        Lucky you, good to see these still trickling through. Hopefully mine is not far away.

        Will be 3 months for me in 4 days…

      I know the credit from a travelbank usually takes a day or so to load on.

    • Banana on 18/01/2023 - 11:37

      Can you please share when you applied for the card and got the points? It's the last perk I am waiting for and I really want to close the card :'(

      • soundboy5010 on 18/01/2023 - 12:43

        Applied 10/10

        Travel Bank Created 17/1
        Travel Bank Credit Added TBD

        You have received the travel bank credit already before the points?

          16/11 - received card in the mail and spent $1500 there and then
          8/12 - just got the text and points have landed, no credits

          I don't have an email for travel bank yet :(

  • Highest ground on 18/01/2023 - 14:38

    If I activate the travel insurance on the card through Allianz but then cancel the credit card before the trip will the travel insurance be void?

    • jetblack on 19/01/2023 - 11:33

      You should definitely cancel the card before travelling to save a few bucks of annual fee. What's the worst that could happen?
