What is the best ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum credit card Qantas Lounge?

Hello, Dan hoping you or anyone else can help clarify if this card charges foreign transaction fees?
I noticed this in the ‘important information’ it says ’13. ANZ will waive the overseas transaction fee on foreign currency transactions and transactions where the merchant or financial institution accepting the card is located outside Australia.’
However, I can’t see any other mention of foreign/ overseas transaction fees anywhere else and they don’t promote it as a benefit of the card.
Answering my own question. This card does charge foreign transaction fees (, the footnote I was quoting above was referencing the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures card.
I’ve recently applied for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum card. Here is a summary of my experience:
1) I completed my application online with an ID verification process. A Credit check was immediately triggered.
2) I was contacted to find a suitable time for a phone call consultation. The time offered was completely disregarded.
3) I was notified the transaction history I offered as evidence of eligibility did not indicate my name. I typed my name in and resent the document which triggered a credit check (again).
4) I received my new card and followed the activation instructions. That didn’t work.
5) I called support and was advised I needed to go down to the branch to identify myself (again). I was then turned around at the branch for not making an appointment
6) I went home, cancelled my application and very happily cut my card in two.
Doubling up on ID checks. Doubling up on Credit Checks. Get given the run around. No thank you.
Hi – I applied for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum in early March 2021 (spend $2.5 K in the first 3 months, earn 75 K points, no annual fee for the first year) and met the minimum spend requirement within a week of receiving the card – spent $3.5 K to be on the safe side. Received my first statement earlier in April, with points for spend showing up – roughly 2,600 which was transferred to my Qantas account – but the 75 K for meeting the minimum spend has not yet come through within the ANZ bonus reward points section on their online portal
What’s the usual wait time on this, and is there any way to follow up? When I called ANZ was told that irrespective of when you meet the minimum spend – bonus points would only be credited in the 4th month – hope that’s not the case
Hi Hormazd, best to wait one more billing cycle to see if it comes through. Unfortunately, from personal experience ANZ are unable to manually push through Qantas Points outside of the monthly billing cycle.
Hi ,
I am not a current member of the Qantas frequent flyer program and have recently signed up for this offer. I have received the card in the mail and there is no mention of complimentary membership for the frequent flyer program. How do I initiate this? I have rung up frequent flyers and they are no help
So I also received my credit card now via applying it on the link in Points Hack. How do I get the complimentary Qantas frequent flyer card?
Hi Hoi Yan, if you’re not already a Qantas Frequent Flyer member, you can sign up for free here.
Hi – I applied for the ANZ frequent flyer platinum offer back in August (spend $2.5k in the first 3 months, earn 75k points, no annual fee for the first year). I spent the $2.5k, though yet to see the points come through, what’s the usual wait time on this, and is there any way to follow up?
I applied for this offer and got the 75k points no issues. My girlfriend applied for the same card late july when the offer was spend 2000 get 50k. No bonus points have turned up so we called ANZ who claimed that she signed up for the current offer of spend 2500 and get 60k points. This is not correct.
Does anyone know whether local council rates would count as eligible purchases? I can pay via BPoint rather than BPAY. I just noticed it said government payments weren’t considered eligible purchases
Hi Felice, assuming you’ve met the conditions and the bonus Qantas Points have landed in your Qantas Frequent Flyer account, you won’t lose them after cancelling the card.
On a separate note, the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures card doesn’t preclude you from getting the 75K Qantas Points bonus on the Frequent Flyer Platinum card as that’s a different family of credit cards.
Nooooo… expiring on the 19th? {cry} Can you persuade them to extend to the end of the month? (My 12 months since I last held one of these isn’t up until late Aug 🙁 .)
Hi Brendan, ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure credit cards [assuming that’s what you mean] won’t disqualify you as they aren’t part of the Frequent Flyer range of cards.
Hi Dan!
I am an ANZ black credit card main holder. My wife is a supplementary card holder of the ANZ black. Could she apply for this platinum (as a main card holder ) and still get the 75,000 bonus points?
Yes, given your wife is a supplementary cardholder and not a primary holder, she will be eligible so long as she has not held an ANZ FF Plat or Black card in her own name within the last 12 months.
Hi Daniel
Can you please advide what he minimum salary is required for this card application?
I have applied for another ANZ one early this year and was rejected. Yet I have AAAA Credit
Please advise
Thanks Sandy
Hi Sandy, there is no official minimum salary for this card. ANZ will take into account your overall financial situation including income and expenses.
Application form doesn’t accept surnames > 15 characters so I wont be able to apply. This is the only bank out there with such an odd field limitation. ANZ said I can apply over the phone instead but then this deal won’t be valid. Can you perhaps talk to your contacts at ANZ. I need 1 more letter!
Hi Folks, upon clicking the “Find Out More and Apply” button and being transferred to the ANZ Secure application page; there’s no mention of the annual card fee being waved for the first year.
Could someone please confirm if this is waived or not as per this article? Thank you.
My apologies; I can’t believe I missed that. Thanks for clarifying.
Hi Girl
Yes, I can confirm that the annual is waived, but please note that this is just for the first year. In subsequent years, the annual fee will revert back to $295. Thanks!
I thought I understood the minimum spend rule, until my mate spent in excess of $6k in the relevant period, but got double the sign-on bonus (it was 75,000 x 2 when he signed up). Is that how it works?
Hi,
I received the bonus points in my account but at the end of the billing cycle they are supposed to transfer to my Qantas frequent flyer account but have not shown up yet.
They left the ANZ account 5 days ago.
How long do they normally take to show up in Qantas FF account?
I hit $2500 spend for the bonus points after one month (back in June).
I asked when I’d see the bonus points in my qff account and they said around September. Does that sound right??
Does the “Bonus Qantas Frequent Flyer points earned this period” section get updated at a later date?
Since I have 1,875 points added (0.75 * 2,500), this confirms all of my transactions were ‘eligible’, so the bonus points should be applied?
It can usually take a further statement period before the bonus points show up, however, if you are concerned, best to contact ANZ directly and get them to confirm when the bonus points will hit your account.
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME
I applied for the ANZ Platinum Frequent Flyer and got rejected as a credit risk. This is standard bank jargon for “there is no offer we just want your personal info.” I obtained my Credit Report, engaged a forensic financial analyst and was advised I am an extremely positive risk. The following day I even borrowed 200k against my 95% equity property (not from ANZ !!! ). I lodged a complaint and ANZ refused to review the decision (which adds weight to no deal available) so Australian Finance Industry Ombudsman has taken it up on my behalf to find out the truth – I will keep you posted
I am having the same experience with Ray below. The server crashes after submit the application. Have called ANZ but they are not able to assist as the exclusive promotion is not on their website. Could you please send through the manual application form at your earliest?
I have tried across all browsers (Chrome, Safari and Microsoft edge). No luck.
Please see the error below:
“Hmm, there seems to be a problem.
Sorry about that. We’ll be back online as soon as we can.
Try again, or call 13 22 73, Mon-Fri, 8am to 8pm (AEST).”
Hi An
A few people like yourself have had issues with the submission, and we have been unable to determine a common link to this problem (eg browser, operating system etc). There is no manual form, unfortunately, as the offer is tracked from ANZ’s end electronically. We suggest continuing to try periodically throughout the remainder of the day, as we are seeing a substantial number of applications successfully coming through and it may be a timing issue.
Still not working for me.
Would be great to see an extension for this offer due to this bug.
Have tried countless times to apply and I think I have finally given up
Hi Andrew
Sorry to hear about this. I have heard that it could be due to time sensitivity. That is if you don’t fill in your details on a certain page in around 3-5 minutes, it then times out when you try to go to the next screen and submit. I’m not sure if this is the case, but if you do re-attempt, can you please make sure that you have all the details available so you can input them in quickly.
I’m thinking it’s time sensitive. If I had to guess, maybe aim for 5 mins or less.
I had a similar issue on another ANZ card (and this one today for my wife, which was denied for some reason even though I was sure she’d be OK… She tried to call but there is no-one in call centers apparently FYI).
Anyway I screenshot all my inputs, then filled it all out in a few minutes and it went through.
Suggest people having dramas give that a go, worth a shot at least…
Hi, do I need to apply and get accepted on or before 24 March 2020 to receive this offer or just applying on or before 24 March 2020 and then getting accepted after 24 March 2020 will be ok? Thanks.
Just to confirm, does Offer expires: 24 March 2020 mean at midnight tonight?
Or has it already expired?
Hi M
Yes, ends at 11:59pm AEDT tonight.
Hi .. I have now tried 6 times over 5 days to apply for the anz credit card and the application page crashes when you hit submit application . Is there another way to apply for the anz credit card ?
Hi Daniel – i have tried on both my PC (both Chrome and Explorer) and iPhone to apply.. I called the ANZ and they tell me its a point hacks issue
Cheers

I have applied for this card through this website and got it, except in their letter of offer it didnt mention anything about the $0 fee first year and nothing about the 75k bonus points either. Has anyone experienced the same thing? Can’t trust these banks to do anything right the first time.
So long as you applied through our link, you will receive the offer benefits. It is common for a bank to send out the ‘normal conditions’ for a card, which I agree, can be confusing.
I am in the same boat as Tammy, and contacted ANZ to try and confirm, which they directed me back to Pointhacks. Should we expect to receive anything (email etc) to indicate that we will get the points/not be charged anything for the first year card fee, or is this all magically managed behind the scenes?
Hi Daniel,
Not sure if my last message came through, but I am in the same position as Tammy. Applied through the link, received the letter of offer minus any reference to points and zero fee. How do I know that the offer I know I applied for through the Point hacks link is in effect? on calling ANZ they directed me back to you, do you guys email a confirmation that this in effect? Thanks in advance!
I wonder about others’ experiences with applying for credit cards with ANZ recently…
I’ve previously had the ANZ Frequent Flyer Black card, even though back then I had a higher combined credit limit from all my credit products, and a lower income. Recently, I tried reapplying for this card a few times and have been rejected by ANZ on each occasion! Why on earth would they advertise a product they don’t actually want customers to have? I mean, I have never had any credit defaults and I’ve previously held the Black card so obviously it wasn’t a problem then…
Anyway I figured I’d try applying for this ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum offer through Point Hacks. Lodged my application a week ago, submitted all the documentation, and NOTHING! All I’ve received was a text message saying their response time will be longer than usual, and blaming this on the chinavirus. They’re obviously very quick to reject applications, but if they’re going to approve this one for a change, why would it take so long I wonder? Has anyone had any luck receiving a response within a reasonable timeframe over the last week or so? What have others’ experiences been in applying through this Point Hacks offer?
Is anyone else experiencing a hard time applying for this card? I’ve gotten up to the process application countdown screen for over 10mins twice then the application timing out?
I received the letter of offer tonight. The letter specifies that the yearly fees are not payable in the first year. So all good on that front. However, there is no mention of bonus points at all. The cover letter states “Points and Bonus Points accrue in accordance with the ANZ Frequency Flyer Visa Rewards Terms and Conditions enclosed.” The cover letter details the points accrual, but nothing on the bonus points. I didn’t find anything else enclosed mentioning points at all.
Is this what you guys experienced, or did you have something detailing the bonus points terms and conditions?
I will call ANZ tomorrow, but thought I’d check here in case it is normal and others end up here wondering the same thing.
Hi
i have had one of these cars for 7 years and spend most months 7k
i have only ever recieved 1000 points per month
branches of anz cant help me
Terry
hey Daniel!
I am a supplementary card holder from my partner’s ANZ Black frequent flyer card. Does that mean I am eligible for the offer if I applied one directly just for myself? Would ANZ actually cross reference and find out I’m already a supplementary card holder? Just curious about the last bit. Thanks mate!
Yes, as a supplementary cardholder, you will be eligible for this offer, as you don’t currently have this card (and therefore an account) in your name. I hope that helps!
In last couple of days I have tried 3-4 times (And different time of day) to apply for this offer but at end after clicking “Submit” on ANZ website it crashes with message “Hmm, something went wrong” and ask me to call ANZ.
A few people like yourself have had issues with the submission, and we have been unable to determine a common link to this problem (eg browser, operating system etc).

I have been trying to apply for this card for over a week now and continually get stuck at the submit application section on the ANZ site stating that there has been an error. I have tried multiple browsers with no success and when i spoke to the a rep at the branch they say it is a problem with the Point Hacks re-direction to their service. Is there a way i can apply for this card without using the online application? I have also tried calling ANZ and they cannot process this application with the promotion either.

I’m sorry we cannot help further, but this is being hosted by ANZ so it a problem from the Point Hacks end as advised to you by ANZ.
Is there a fixed tenure for this credit card? Ie, am I able to cancel the credit card after 1 year when I decide I don’t want to pay for the annual fee?
We’ll be receiving the points once we meet the criteria (spending $2500 within the 3 months), isn’t it? The 75k points are not contingent upon payment of the second fee, is it?
Hi Michael
Yes, that’s right. Bonus points are awarded once the minimum spend criteria are met.
Applied and received this card. The documentation indicated that the annual fee is the standard $295/year, but a call to ANZ confirmed that the fee is waived under this promotion.
No worries Veronica! Yes, definitely $0 in the first year.
Hi. I already have an ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures Card. I am going to close that card and then apply for this one. I have not had any of the ff cards mentioned in the exclusions, but I just wanted to confirm that couldn’t be considered as “transferring” from an existing card (as one of the exclusions)?
As long as you close your RTAC card, then do a separate new application using the Point Hacks link, you will be eligible for the offer and not considered to be a transfer from RTAC to the Frequent Flyer Platinum card.
Hi Graham, I currently have an active ANZ commercial work credit card issued by my place of employment. Will I be ineligible to receive the bonus points. My work card is not a points earning card.
Dear Point Hacks,
Having received your email yesterday about the ANZ Bank credit card offer, I spent 1 hour on the phone with Brett from ANZ, who was kind enough to help me, I even created the verbal security code, when everything was finished, I clicked Submit, and it crashed, ANZ said it was most likely the Point Hacks server? as this has happened a couple times already?
Can you please see if my details are on your server. I decided to apply once again today for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum card, once again it crashed? I am at a loss what to do next, I have emailed Point Hacks, no reply, I posted on the Facebook page, no response.
Regards, Ray
I’ve discussed this internally and confirm that Point Hacks does not host the application site, and therefore it is unrelated to any of Point Hacks servers.
I suggest that you try one more time to see if it does work, as this offer is quite popular and you may have been trying to submit it at a busy time. If it crashes again, please let me know and we can send you through a manual form to fill out.
Thanks
Daniel
I currently hold an ANZ Adventure Card and received bonus points within the last 12 months. Does this make me ineligible to receive this offer? Thank you!
Yes, if your dates are correct, you will be eligible. But just make sure that you confirm with ANZ the exact date they have on record of when you closed your last ANZ card and not the date you requested the card to be cancelled, just to be 100% sure.
The terms and conditions do not explicitly define what a cash equivalent transaction is. I suggest giving ANZ a call and clarifying with them directly.
There is no specific minimum income indicated, but as a general guide, mid-tier cards like this usually require a minimum income of approximately $35,000 per year. However, ANZ will apply their own credit criteria to an application.
Please note the following in clause 1 of the terms and conditions:
Not available where you currently hold an ANZ Frequent Flyer, ANZ Frequent Flyer Gold, ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum or ANZ Frequent Flyer Black credit card, or have closed, or qualified for bonus Qantas Points on any of those ANZ Frequent Flyer credit cards within the previous 12 months.
As the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure card (“RTAC”) does not offer bonus Qantas points and is not a card mentioned in the above clause, then you will be eligible for this promotion if you just recently applied for the RTAC. However, you will be ineligible if you hold or have received bonus Qantas points in the past 12 months from any ANZ Frequent Flyer branded card.
The Point Hacks exclusive ANZ page mentions $295 in the important numbers, as this will be the annual fee from the 2nd year onwards. The terms and conditions on this page do mention the following at the end of clause 1 as follows:
The ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum Annual Account and Annual Rewards Fees (together “Annual Account Fee”) will be waived in the first year. After the first year, an Annual Account Fee of $295 applies. This fee is current as at 4th March 2020 and is subject to change. For all applicable fees & charges please see the ANZ Personal Banking Account Fees and Charges (PDF 139kB) and ANZ Personal Banking General Fees and Charges (PDF 155kB).
I noticed that the current point hacks deal for this card includes complimentary Qantas frequent flyer membership. Can we apply for this card even if we are already Qantas frequent flyer members?
Hello, Dan hoping you or anyone else can help clarify if this card charges foreign transaction fees?

Hi ,
I am not a current member of the Qantas frequent flyer program and have recently signed up for this offer. I have received the card in the mail and there is no mention of complimentary membership for the frequent flyer program. How do I initiate this? I have rung up frequent flyers and they are no help
Hi Nicholas, you can join for free via this ANZ link.
So I also received my credit card now via applying it on the link in Points Hack. How do I get the complimentary Qantas frequent flyer card?
Hi Hoi Yan, if you’re not already a Qantas Frequent Flyer member, you can sign up for free here.
Hi – I applied for the ANZ frequent flyer platinum offer back in August (spend $2.5k in the first 3 months, earn 75k points, no annual fee for the first year). I spent the $2.5k, though yet to see the points come through, what’s the usual wait time on this, and is there any way to follow up?
Hi Shannon, the points will normally come through on your next billing cycle. It’s done once a month, not immediately after you complete the offer.
I applied for this offer and got the 75k points no issues. My girlfriend applied for the same card late july when the offer was spend 2000 get 50k. No bonus points have turned up so we called ANZ who claimed that she signed up for the current offer of spend 2500 and get 60k points. This is not correct.
Is there a way to proove what offer was available at the time? (further than inferring from their website – https://www.anz.com.au/promo/personal/credit-cards/frequent-flyer-platinum-qantas/?&sourcecode_1=IXKC and the fact this was talked about as “extra 25k points for only 500 extra spend)
As to the deadline date, is that for application or approval? Thank you.
Hi Robert, the deadline date (today) is for application.
Does anyone know whether local council rates would count as eligible purchases? I can pay via BPoint rather than BPAY. I just noticed it said government payments weren’t considered eligible purchases
Hi there.
If I cancel the card after 6 months will I still keep the bonus points even though I never paid an annual fee?
Thanks
Hi Felice, assuming you’ve met the conditions and the bonus Qantas Points have landed in your Qantas Frequent Flyer account, you won’t lose them after cancelling the card.
Hi all,
is there a way of finding out when you canceled your previous card?
I had an ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures credit car last year but cannot remember when I canceled.
Thanks in advance!
It’s best to check with ANZ directly on that.
On a separate note, the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures card doesn’t preclude you from getting the 75K Qantas Points bonus on the Frequent Flyer Platinum card as that’s a different family of credit cards.
Hi, just checking whether there is a fee for supplementary card? If yes, would it be waived for the first year as well?
Nooooo… expiring on the 19th? {cry} Can you persuade them to extend to the end of the month? (My 12 months since I last held one of these isn’t up until late Aug 🙁 .)
Are current holders of an ANZ Adventurer Card eligible for this deal?
Hi Brendan, ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure credit cards [assuming that’s what you mean] won’t disqualify you as they aren’t part of the Frequent Flyer range of cards.
I just recently (yesterday) cancelled my ANZ rewards travel adventures card. Just wanted to check whether this would disqualify me from this promotion
Hi Albert, ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure credit cards won’t disqualify you as they aren’t part of the Frequent Flyer range of cards.
Hi Dan!
I am an ANZ black credit card main holder. My wife is a supplementary card holder of the ANZ black. Could she apply for this platinum (as a main card holder ) and still get the 75,000 bonus points?
Hi Jimmy
Yes, given your wife is a supplementary cardholder and not a primary holder, she will be eligible so long as she has not held an ANZ FF Plat or Black card in her own name within the last 12 months.
Hi Daniel
Can you please advide what he minimum salary is required for this card application?
I have applied for another ANZ one early this year and was rejected. Yet I have AAAA Credit
Please advise
Thanks Sandy
Hi Sandy, there is no official minimum salary for this card. ANZ will take into account your overall financial situation including income and expenses.
Application form doesn’t accept surnames > 15 characters so I wont be able to apply. This is the only bank out there with such an odd field limitation. ANZ said I can apply over the phone instead but then this deal won’t be valid. Can you perhaps talk to your contacts at ANZ. I need 1 more letter!
Hi Mel
Let me speak to the relevant person internally here at Point Hacks to see what can be done. I’ll get back to you.
Hi Folks, upon clicking the “Find Out More and Apply” button and being transferred to the ANZ Secure application page; there’s no mention of the annual card fee being waved for the first year.
Could someone please confirm if this is waived or not as per this article? Thank you.
Hi Giri, on the ANZ landing page, the first year fee waiver is clearly stated in the title, and on the first page of the application itself.
My apologies; I can’t believe I missed that. Thanks for clarifying.
Hi Girl
Yes, I can confirm that the annual is waived, but please note that this is just for the first year. In subsequent years, the annual fee will revert back to $295. Thanks!
I dont think the 0 fee is applied anymore. Mine says 295 in the same screen.
Hi, is this offer actually back as of August 3rd? If so, how long is this offer valid for?
Hi, yes this offer is back again as of 3 August 2020. Unfortunately, we don’t have a set end date — it’s only for a limited time as determined by ANZ.
Thanks Brandon
Hi there,
I thought I understood the minimum spend rule, until my mate spent in excess of $6k in the relevant period, but got double the sign-on bonus (it was 75,000 x 2 when he signed up). Is that how it works?
Hi,
I received the bonus points in my account but at the end of the billing cycle they are supposed to transfer to my Qantas frequent flyer account but have not shown up yet.
They left the ANZ account 5 days ago.
How long do they normally take to show up in Qantas FF account?
Hi Dan,
I hit $2500 spend for the bonus points after one month (back in June).
I asked when I’d see the bonus points in my qff account and they said around September. Does that sound right??
Hi Dan, Team and all,
Has anyone reached the $2,500 minimum spend?
If yes, mind checking:
Do you see the 75,000 points under “Bonus Qantas Frequent Flyer points earned this period”?
I see my 1,875 points added (0.75 * 2,500)
I don’t see the 75,000 points under “Bonus Qantas Frequent Flyer points earned this period”
Example: https://i.imgur.com/G8JPXUv.png
Does the “Bonus Qantas Frequent Flyer points earned this period” section get updated at a later date?
Since I have 1,875 points added (0.75 * 2,500), this confirms all of my transactions were ‘eligible’, so the bonus points should be applied?
Many thanks,
B
Hi B
It can usually take a further statement period before the bonus points show up, however, if you are concerned, best to contact ANZ directly and get them to confirm when the bonus points will hit your account.
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME
I applied for the ANZ Platinum Frequent Flyer and got rejected as a credit risk. This is standard bank jargon for “there is no offer we just want your personal info.” I obtained my Credit Report, engaged a forensic financial analyst and was advised I am an extremely positive risk. The following day I even borrowed 200k against my 95% equity property (not from ANZ !!! ). I lodged a complaint and ANZ refused to review the decision (which adds weight to no deal available) so Australian Finance Industry Ombudsman has taken it up on my behalf to find out the truth – I will keep you posted
Hi Daniel,
I am having the same experience with Ray below. The server crashes after submit the application. Have called ANZ but they are not able to assist as the exclusive promotion is not on their website. Could you please send through the manual application form at your earliest?
Thank you
Hi An
Are you able to let me know what browser you are using, and if it is a PC or mac? Thanks.
Hi Daniel,
I have tried across all browsers (Chrome, Safari and Microsoft edge). No luck.
Please see the error below:
“Hmm, there seems to be a problem.
Sorry about that. We’ll be back online as soon as we can.
Try again, or call 13 22 73, Mon-Fri, 8am to 8pm (AEST).”
Hi An
A few people like yourself have had issues with the submission, and we have been unable to determine a common link to this problem (eg browser, operating system etc). There is no manual form, unfortunately, as the offer is tracked from ANZ’s end electronically. We suggest continuing to try periodically throughout the remainder of the day, as we are seeing a substantial number of applications successfully coming through and it may be a timing issue.
Still not working for me.
Would be great to see an extension for this offer due to this bug.
Have tried countless times to apply and I think I have finally given up
Hi Andrew
Sorry to hear about this. I have heard that it could be due to time sensitivity. That is if you don’t fill in your details on a certain page in around 3-5 minutes, it then times out when you try to go to the next screen and submit. I’m not sure if this is the case, but if you do re-attempt, can you please make sure that you have all the details available so you can input them in quickly.
I’m thinking it’s time sensitive. If I had to guess, maybe aim for 5 mins or less.
I had a similar issue on another ANZ card (and this one today for my wife, which was denied for some reason even though I was sure she’d be OK… She tried to call but there is no-one in call centers apparently FYI).
Anyway I screenshot all my inputs, then filled it all out in a few minutes and it went through.
Suggest people having dramas give that a go, worth a shot at least…
Hi, do I need to apply and get accepted on or before 24 March 2020 to receive this offer or just applying on or before 24 March 2020 and then getting accepted after 24 March 2020 will be ok? Thanks.
Hi G
No, you only need to apply before 24 March 2020. Acceptance can be received after this date.
Just to confirm, does Offer expires: 24 March 2020 mean at midnight tonight?
Or has it already expired?
Hi M
Yes, ends at 11:59pm AEDT tonight.
Hi .. I have now tried 6 times over 5 days to apply for the anz credit card and the application page crashes when you hit submit application . Is there another way to apply for the anz credit card ?
Hi Ken
Are you able to let me know what browser you are using, and if it is a PC or mac? Thanks.
Hi Daniel – i have tried on both my PC (both Chrome and Explorer) and iPhone to apply.. I called the ANZ and they tell me its a point hacks issue
Cheers

I have applied for this card through this website and got it, except in their letter of offer it didnt mention anything about the $0 fee first year and nothing about the 75k bonus points either. Has anyone experienced the same thing? Can’t trust these banks to do anything right the first time.
Hi Tammy
So long as you applied through our link, you will receive the offer benefits. It is common for a bank to send out the ‘normal conditions’ for a card, which I agree, can be confusing.
Hi Daniel,
I am in the same boat as Tammy, and contacted ANZ to try and confirm, which they directed me back to Pointhacks. Should we expect to receive anything (email etc) to indicate that we will get the points/not be charged anything for the first year card fee, or is this all magically managed behind the scenes?
Hi Daniel,
Not sure if my last message came through, but I am in the same position as Tammy. Applied through the link, received the letter of offer minus any reference to points and zero fee. How do I know that the offer I know I applied for through the Point hacks link is in effect? on calling ANZ they directed me back to you, do you guys email a confirmation that this in effect? Thanks in advance!
I wonder about others’ experiences with applying for credit cards with ANZ recently…
I’ve previously had the ANZ Frequent Flyer Black card, even though back then I had a higher combined credit limit from all my credit products, and a lower income. Recently, I tried reapplying for this card a few times and have been rejected by ANZ on each occasion! Why on earth would they advertise a product they don’t actually want customers to have? I mean, I have never had any credit defaults and I’ve previously held the Black card so obviously it wasn’t a problem then…
Anyway I figured I’d try applying for this ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum offer through Point Hacks. Lodged my application a week ago, submitted all the documentation, and NOTHING! All I’ve received was a text message saying their response time will be longer than usual, and blaming this on the chinavirus. They’re obviously very quick to reject applications, but if they’re going to approve this one for a change, why would it take so long I wonder? Has anyone had any luck receiving a response within a reasonable timeframe over the last week or so? What have others’ experiences been in applying through this Point Hacks offer?
Hi- the site keeps crashing after i submit the application
i there another way to apply ?
I have now tried online 4 times over three days
Hi Ken
Are you able to let me know what browser you are using, and if it is a PC or mac? Thanks.
Is anyone else experiencing a hard time applying for this card? I’ve gotten up to the process application countdown screen for over 10mins twice then the application timing out?
Hi Andrew
Are you able to let me know what browser you are using, and if it is a PC or mac? Thanks.
PC, have tried chrome and internet explorer
Hi All,
I received the letter of offer tonight. The letter specifies that the yearly fees are not payable in the first year. So all good on that front. However, there is no mention of bonus points at all. The cover letter states “Points and Bonus Points accrue in accordance with the ANZ Frequency Flyer Visa Rewards Terms and Conditions enclosed.” The cover letter details the points accrual, but nothing on the bonus points. I didn’t find anything else enclosed mentioning points at all.
Is this what you guys experienced, or did you have something detailing the bonus points terms and conditions?
I will call ANZ tomorrow, but thought I’d check here in case it is normal and others end up here wondering the same thing.
Hi
i have had one of these cars for 7 years and spend most months 7k
i have only ever recieved 1000 points per month
branches of anz cant help me
Terry
hey Daniel!
I am a supplementary card holder from my partner’s ANZ Black frequent flyer card. Does that mean I am eligible for the offer if I applied one directly just for myself? Would ANZ actually cross reference and find out I’m already a supplementary card holder? Just curious about the last bit. Thanks mate!
Hi Jimmy
Yes, as a supplementary cardholder, you will be eligible for this offer, as you don’t currently have this card (and therefore an account) in your name. I hope that helps!
Hi Daniel,
In last couple of days I have tried 3-4 times (And different time of day) to apply for this offer but at end after clicking “Submit” on ANZ website it crashes with message “Hmm, something went wrong” and ask me to call ANZ.
Wondering if you have any advise?
Hi D Gates

I have been trying to apply for this card for over a week now and continually get stuck at the submit application section on the ANZ site stating that there has been an error. I have tried multiple browsers with no success and when i spoke to the a rep at the branch they say it is a problem with the Point Hacks re-direction to their service. Is there a way i can apply for this card without using the online application? I have also tried calling ANZ and they cannot process this application with the promotion either.
Hi Patrick

I’m sorry we cannot help further, but this is being hosted by ANZ so it a problem from the Point Hacks end as advised to you by ANZ.
Is there a fixed tenure for this credit card? Ie, am I able to cancel the credit card after 1 year when I decide I don’t want to pay for the annual fee?
Hi Michael
There is no fixed time that you need to keep the card for, although if you cancel the card prior to receiving the bonus points, you will forfeit them.
We’ll be receiving the points once we meet the criteria (spending $2500 within the 3 months), isn’t it? The 75k points are not contingent upon payment of the second fee, is it?
Hi Michael
Yes, that’s right. Bonus points are awarded once the minimum spend criteria are met.
Applied and received this card. The documentation indicated that the annual fee is the standard $295/year, but a call to ANZ confirmed that the fee is waived under this promotion.
Hi Mark
Yes that’s right, under our promotion the annual fee is free for the first year. Please refer to clause 1 of the terms and conditions.
I applied on Friday
Should I receive a confirmation from them?
I have heard nothing.
Concerns me that it may not be I. And I miss cut off
I’ve gone to the link provided and on the ANZ website it shows the annual fee as $295, not $0 for the first year…
Please disregard. It says no annual fee in the title but not else where. Just missed it!
No worries Veronica! Yes, definitely $0 in the first year.
Hi. I already have an ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures Card. I am going to close that card and then apply for this one. I have not had any of the ff cards mentioned in the exclusions, but I just wanted to confirm that couldn’t be considered as “transferring” from an existing card (as one of the exclusions)?
Hi Graham
As long as you close your RTAC card, then do a separate new application using the Point Hacks link, you will be eligible for the offer and not considered to be a transfer from RTAC to the Frequent Flyer Platinum card.
Thanks Daniel!
Hi Graham, I currently have an active ANZ commercial work credit card issued by my place of employment. Will I be ineligible to receive the bonus points. My work card is not a points earning card.
Dear Point Hacks,
Having received your email yesterday about the ANZ Bank credit card offer, I spent 1 hour on the phone with Brett from ANZ, who was kind enough to help me, I even created the verbal security code, when everything was finished, I clicked Submit, and it crashed, ANZ said it was most likely the Point Hacks server? as this has happened a couple times already?
Can you please see if my details are on your server. I decided to apply once again today for the ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum card, once again it crashed? I am at a loss what to do next, I have emailed Point Hacks, no reply, I posted on the Facebook page, no response.
Regards, Ray
Hi Ray
Sorry to hear about this. I will get in touch internally with the relevant person and be back in touch shortly.
Daniel
Hi Ray
I’ve discussed this internally and confirm that Point Hacks does not host the application site, and therefore it is unrelated to any of Point Hacks servers.
I suggest that you try one more time to see if it does work, as this offer is quite popular and you may have been trying to submit it at a busy time. If it crashes again, please let me know and we can send you through a manual form to fill out.
Thanks
Daniel
I currently hold an ANZ Adventure Card and received bonus points within the last 12 months. Does this make me ineligible to receive this offer? Thank you!
Hi Brendan
Yes, you are eligible for this offer, as the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure card is part of a different ‘family’ of cards within ANZ.
Hi i closed the exact anz card on 7th march 2019. If i applied on 8th march this month will i be eligible for the bonus points? Thanks.
Hi Julian
Yes, if your dates are correct, you will be eligible. But just make sure that you confirm with ANZ the exact date they have on record of when you closed your last ANZ card and not the date you requested the card to be cancelled, just to be 100% sure.
Does cash equivalent transactions include gift cards for this card?
Hi Rachael
The terms and conditions do not explicitly define what a cash equivalent transaction is. I suggest giving ANZ a call and clarifying with them directly.
Is there a minimum income for this card?
Hi Pat
There is no specific minimum income indicated, but as a general guide, mid-tier cards like this usually require a minimum income of approximately $35,000 per year. However, ANZ will apply their own credit criteria to an application.
Will the bonus points be clawed back if the card is closed prior to the 1 year anniversary?
Hi Henri
Once you qualify for the bonus points and they hit your Qantas Frequent Flyer account, then no, they can’t be clawed back.
Will you be eligible for the bonus points if you just signed up for the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventures card or any other of the ANZ cards recently ?
Hi joe
Please note the following in clause 1 of the terms and conditions:
Not available where you currently hold an ANZ Frequent Flyer, ANZ Frequent Flyer Gold, ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum or ANZ Frequent Flyer Black credit card, or have closed, or qualified for bonus Qantas Points on any of those ANZ Frequent Flyer credit cards within the previous 12 months.
As the ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure card (“RTAC”) does not offer bonus Qantas points and is not a card mentioned in the above clause, then you will be eligible for this promotion if you just recently applied for the RTAC. However, you will be ineligible if you hold or have received bonus Qantas points in the past 12 months from any ANZ Frequent Flyer branded card.
I hope that helps!
Hey thanks for posting this offer. It does not mention $0 annual fee in the first year at any of the T&Cs in the ANZ application page though.
Hi EELS
The Point Hacks exclusive ANZ page mentions $295 in the important numbers, as this will be the annual fee from the 2nd year onwards. The terms and conditions on this page do mention the following at the end of clause 1 as follows:
The ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum Annual Account and Annual Rewards Fees (together “Annual Account Fee”) will be waived in the first year. After the first year, an Annual Account Fee of $295 applies. This fee is current as at 4th March 2020 and is subject to change. For all applicable fees & charges please see the ANZ Personal Banking Account Fees and Charges (PDF 139kB) and ANZ Personal Banking General Fees and Charges (PDF 155kB).
I noticed that the current point hacks deal for this card includes complimentary Qantas frequent flyer membership. Can we apply for this card even if we are already Qantas frequent flyer members?
Absolutely L!
Thanks Dan
