Are you an existing HSBC customer? If so, then I think you will need to meet the eligible criteria for at least 6 months by either (a) depositing at least $9,000 into your HSBC transaction account every month (for at least 6 months); or (b) maintain a combined total of $150,000 across all your HSBC accounts (for at least 6 months).This thread reactivation is timely as we are eying off a pending renewal for our ANZ Qantas Platinum Visa and it's (all up) $360 fee. We have had this account since last century and the days of 4 pts per dollar (6 on Qantas spend) ... approaching 3 decades.
I have a couple of months leeway. With the HSBC Premier, if starting from scratch, how long do you need to be putting $9K through the "Global Account" before being able to apply for the Premier Mastercard? Earlier posts indicate no time requirement, but HSBC seems to imply 6 months.
I have done a dry run through the application process, but not submitted.Earlier posts indicate no time requirement
there is an option during the application process to open an account where you can tick "I qualify for Premier status"
Is that the application for the "Everyday Global Account" or the Mastercard?I have done a dry run through the application process, but not submitted.
I can confirm earlier posts that indicate that you have to confirm that you will put $9000 through looks like it is enough to apply.
Everyday Global Account.Is that the application for the "Everyday Global Account" or the Mastercard?
Thankyou, I have now gone through the application and received an email entitled "Welcome to HSBC Premier".If you're not an existing HSBC customer, then, as it says at Premier | Premium Banking Services & Support - HSBC AU "You can apply for an Everyday Global Account and HSBC Premier status at the same time."

You'll need to apply for one separately as it's still considered a separate product. However, unlike the other CCs on offer, the only ways to apply for a Premier MC is to visit an HSBC branch in person, or to call i.e. you cannot do it online.I have a Global account opened, but nothing regarding the Premier Mastercard as yet.
