I've closed my account already with BW to avoid any ongoing fees as I don't trust them anymore. Does AFCA tally complaints to institutions? Would be good to start a case against BW only if it pushes them to clarify T&Cs for others in the future.

I didn't phone and also waited two months. Didn't consider it a hack as all transactions were within their stated T&Cs for the promo. From the latest comments at Bankwest Qantas Transaction Account: Bonus 10,000 Qantas Pts (10 Purchases Every Month for First 3 Months), $6/M Fee @ Bankwest -...

Honestly, I considered it - but got a lot going on in life at the moment and don't have the headspace to deal with them. Ended up just closing the account and won't avail myself of their services again in future. Ever. As you said, T&Cs have no minimum transaction requirement so to say it's...

Heard back from Bankwest, "I've reviewed your transaction activity, and can see that you have made multiple small dollar value transactions to meet the transaction number requirement. I regret to advise that Bankwest considers this activity as an abuse of your account, and as per the Bankwest...

I think Bankwest just batch processes the QF points transfer for the same date. I got my monthly points transfered on the 6th of every month, and guessing they just flipped a switch to put the 10k bonus ones on for the same day (for those that were eligible). After reviewing timing for mine...

Damn, I did same over Sept/Oct/Nov/Dec and no 10k+ :( Will contact them and see what they say.

Got my 2k overnight from the most recent promo offering

I opened my account 2nd October and am still waiting. Did the 10x transactions Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan. T&Cs said points will be credited within 60 days once eligibility criteria have been met, which for me is mid-Feb so will wait until then.

QF Marketplace Enhancement ;)

Only reason I had to attempt to offset retrospectively was because I was doing the part-payment gift voucher trick to avoid credit card surcharge. I'm guessing since that's really a blank PNR which is later modified to "add" a flight, that's why the retrospective paid-by-points offset fails...

only points, I believe - and the last three I've tried have stalled at the "request submitted" stage ... so I think I'll do a paid offset as part of my next booking as I've only got that one leaf to go

Afterpay is charging my Bankwest Mastercard debit card and I can confirm I'm receiving points for each transaction :)

Went to Aussie Post last Wednesday, heard nothing.. then got account opening details just now :) Now, to link it to Afterpay to get the transaction count up!

Great - thanks for the feedback. I know I will need cash in the UK as it will be a longer stay and it's a particular circumstance but think I may just open a bank account over there (I'm eligible) rather than rely on ING/Citi maintaining a feature of their products given the "product...

I'm heading to HK and the UK soon and have confirmed that there are HSBC ATMs where I'm going, I'm thinking my Australian Everday Global HSBC account will be ATM fee free (although it seems that most UK ATMs are fee-free?) (Page 37 of...
