Looks like a decent deal. I don't see too many gotchas. I have the Citibank platinum so should be able to apply for this one. Will keep a PDF of it though - I've had issues with Citi now wanting to honour their deals before.

You may not be eligible for the bonus points: Current Citibank Credit Cardholders are not eligible to apply for this introductory offer.

I've been holding off getting a Citi card waiting for a deal like this - thanks for posting wchiri!

I have tried to apply and the link doesn't seem to work. It brought me to a page with a 80k qantas point bonus but according to city this is a glitch and will be resolve soon. Damned.

Do you get a different screen from this one?


From my side I still get to the 80,000 Qantas point offer which is a glitch sadly

What are 60k citi points worth? Do they only convert to SQ and VA?

That is correct, but there is also this offer on qantas site currently. Has a fee but 70K QF points.

Wait so what is the correct offer? Does the original one stand?

So annoying I just applied for a new card and was hanging for something like this offer but had gone with a virgin one instead! Don't really want any more hits to the credit file but would much prefer to cancel that and pick this one up!

Gday

Did a quick search and got this:

https://www.citibank.com.au/AUGCB/I...ipper_content/travel_catalogue&layout=success

Basically it converts to 40k Velocity or Krisflyer points for free. A bloody good deal.

Not sure what the issue is here, if I was complaining about the points would use the second page and if I was complaining about the fee I'd use the first, 80k is better than 70 after all.

citibank has stuffed up he promo, that's their problem, if you have PDFs of the relevant pages and are not afraid to use them!

I don't want the 80k or 70k Qantas points, am after the citi points and fee free first year. The thing is if you click on the one page PDF summary that is required for cards now it has a whole other set of terms which don't relate to this offer at all.

They may have stuffed up their promo but their system won't let you apply for the qantas points option after you filled all your details on the page that says 80,000 bonus points... If not my application would have already been in!!

This has been the case in the past when I have taken up Citi QF bonuses.
Upon ringing to activate your card, you "opt in" to QF rather than Citirewards, and provide your QFF number then over the phone.At activation, before spending.

Interesting!

So if Im interested in their 80k qantas points bonus, I should lodge the application under citirewards (no other option anyway) then call and switch to QF.

Im just worried that they then will turn around and say sorry no can't do and I'll be stuck with a card and no bonus points... :-|

Thats exactly what you need to do - its the only way I have previously done it (incl last year's 80k pts offer).
If they say can't do, then say forget about activating the card...

I don't think this one will be 80k points though (s/b 60k), as noted above there seems to be an issue once you click through the link to apply

So CJD600 you got the 80k Qantas points through with no issues last year? Don't have anything with Citi at the Moment so could be an easy 60k QFF points for me.

It looks like the page refers to the 60k Qantas points now

One thing I've noticed is that "A $49 annual Citibank Qantas rewards fee applies" when you earn Qantas points. I wonder if it's possible to collect the sign on bonus in Qantas points without having to pay this fee?
