I've never been fee free and paid the annual fee last June 2018. There is a silver lining - we refinanced our home loan with Macquarie late last year and after receiving the new card, being transferred 4 times on a call last week (Mortgage Solutions were the team to help) we've had the fee...
I just did SYD MEL HBA return this week and pretty much identical scrambled eggs and chipolatas for breakfast in Sydney on the way down and chicken rice for lunch in Melbourne on the way back. The chipolatas were quite spicy and great for breakfast! Eggs were bleh.
