    Upto 120,000 QFF for $0 Fee on Westpac Black Altitude

    Thanks. Yeah the fee is on the high side (which is why I was going to do it on the MC until I checked the conditions) however with one transaction I can easily take care of the Amex spend, which for the convenience makes the fee worth it.

    Upto 120,000 QFF for $0 Fee on Westpac Black Altitude

    Has anyone had success in meeting the Amex $3,000 spend criteria with ATO payments? It's specifically excluded for the mastercard but nothing about the ATO is mentioned for Amex

    Citibank OTP auto opt in from April 21

    I used to think that until I had different accounts than needed SMS OTP and accounts that needed a Token OTP (HSBC). After having my phone stolen while overseas the token OTP is my preferred way as it is much less likely to be stolen and always works regardless of phone service/battery etc. I...

    Direct Debit from account with different name

    It should. I would fill the form out with all of your details except for the "Name of the account which is to be debited" and account numbers. Which would be your partners. There are two sections for the account holder to sign, both of you are account holders so you would both sign. -The...

    No Annual Fee Credit Cards with No Foreign Transaction Fees, from CreditCardFinder

    Re: No Annual Fee Credit Cards with No Foreign Transaction Fees, from CreditCardFinde I guess there is no affiliate/kickback program for the 28 Degrees card as there are no links to be found to sign up for it yet there are links to the Bankwest and CBA (Which are both CBA) cards

    Additional Citibank Rewards points on supermarket spend

    Re: A different promo for August The general assumption i have been aware of is that people were only given an upgrade if their credit limit met the minimum credit limit for the upgraded card. So a person with a gold card and $2000 limit was not upgraded to platinum which (i think) has a...

    All couriers charge by dimensional weight if it is greater than the actual weight, it would not be anything new for MyUS to be doing this.

    Qantas CU - Platinum Visa

    Every existing card holder should have received an interest free extension on their card. I signed up last year (as did a friend) and both of us noticed that the payment date was pushed back by a few weeks automatically giving us 55 days

    New Qantas Toolbar - Earn Bonus Points just for searching

    Even so it is worse than Bing. Through the toolbar I can not do things like "1 usd in aud", Bing calculates this fine. "Convert usd" in the toolbar gave 0 search results, not even XE.com (I dont know how this can be possible) however Bing gives the results you would expect. When I travel to...
