    Star Alliance - please explain?

    Just received a newsletter from Air NZ airpoints. Says from the end of this year cannot convert AMEX reward points to airpoints. I just joined Airpoints so I could convert AMEX points...sigh. Can't keep up with all the changes going on with credit card and frequent flyer programs. Oh, for the...

    Halving the number of FF points

    I wonder how all those who transferred from ANZ are going to feel. AMEX must be rubbing their hands together.

    AMEX Maximiser - any views on this card?

    I have had an AMEX maximiser for about a month now. I chose a combination of this card plus the Woolies Mastercard (low fees) to replace my ANZ Visa. So far I am very happy with the AMEX card. No hassles with the application process. The first statement, I got more points than I expected because...

    Beware!! Another surprise from ANZ

    When I spoke to ANZ, I was told that I had my interpretation and the ANZ had a different one. I told them to expect plenty of complaints as statements went out. I hope people take the time to lodge formal complaints as I believe their letter was misleading. Luckily I found out early and didn't...

    Beware!! Another surprise from ANZ

    I had an interesting conversation with ANZ this morning. As my billing date is the 18th I asked what the point changes would mean to my account. The reply. As I had already spent MORE than $1500 (my new limit for 1:1)by 31st October, I receive NO MORE points at 1:1 until I reach the 19th...

    Ramifications for Telstra and QANTAS?

    I wonder how this will effect the ANZ card partners? I was a Telstra customer long before getting the ANZ card (many years ago). Like most people I've got offers from the other telephone companies but didn't change. Trying to sort through the different pricing conditions is time consuming and...

    QANTAS ANZ GOLD VISA CARD SUBSTITUTE CARD ????????

    ANZ phoned me too with the same offer. I told them "no thank you". They also send out glossy brochures suggested we keep our ANZ Visa and ALSO the Diners card to maximize points. Like most people I don't have the time to count up $1500 spend each month and what happens if I buy a big ticket item...

    ANZ card poll

    I asked ANZ what I needed to do to cancel my card. I was told I should probably wait until the anniversary date considering I had paid the fees (nice thought from them) but then all I had to do was phone them to cancel. As I have until end March 2004, I'll stop using the card a month before...

    Change of conditions?

    The fees for my ANZ card are not due till March 2004. There is no proportionate refund of fees if I cancel now, so I will wait until March. I suspect many others will do the same so I don't think the ANZ will really know what impact this will have until all cardholders reach their anniversary. I...
