If you're not in a NAB Qantas exclusion period, $250 cashback is being offered in addition to the usual ~100k sign-up bonus for the Signature card. $320 or $420 annual fee applies. 30k points in the second year.


 
The geniuses at NAB are saying I can't apply until I go to a branch irl to verify my identity - despite approving me for a transaction account a month ago. Will jump on this Monday providing it stays up.
 
Applied yesterday.
Still have ANZ Rewards Plat as my AUD spend card and BW Plat Zero for overseas. Will cancel ANZ when this one comes through as I’ve finally been credited the bonus points (six months of arguing due to a stuff up in their processing).

Interesting that there are two offers, one for new customers and one for existing nab customers. The only change is that existing customers get a reduced annual fee (hence the comment from Coops above about nett $70 for the fee).
Haven’t held a nab credit card for a couple of years but did cancel the nab debit (which replaced the Citi Visa Plus when nab bought out Citi but then ruined the reason for the card in the first place) last year. When applying I put my NAB ID and password from last year in and it appeared to still be active. So hopefully I’ll get the existing customer deal.
 
My wife got approved in about 3 mins after submitting the application online on Sunday for this credit card. Waiting for the plastic to arrive to start spending the $5k to get the 100k bonus points. I am planning to apply for the ANZ Black QFF Card (which I already held more than 24 months ago) and to get the 90k points soon as well, so we will start racking up points again.

You can add to Apple Pay through the NAB app if you want to get cracking...
 
Looks a good offer this one. Will consult the spreadsheet and see which NoName/s meet the exclusion period criteria and apply accordingly.
 
When did NAB started with this offer of 100k bonus point? Just wondering if other banks will follow? Would love for ANZ to follow the same.
 
Yes, I already added it to Google Pay. Can I use it now or woud it work even if the card hasn't been activated?
Now! I had spent $3.3k on my card before the card actually arrived.
 
Approved, but they totally messed up my application. They created a new NAB ID that they linked my new card to, which meant that they didn't give me the existing nab client offer of a $320 annual fee (it says $420 on my application approval), AND, I can't merge my "new" NAB ID with my old one since I don't know what it is. Tried to call support but gave up after waiting a while. Will try going in person to complain.
 
20 Jan. Applied
22 Jan. Sent pay slips
23 Jan. Spoke to agent to explain my salary sacrifice element of pay slip
25 Jan. Approved
26 Jan. Card set up in ApplePay.
30 Jan. Physical card arrived.

Looks like having applied using my NAB ID (but having no active accounts) hasn’t got me the reduced annual fee.

Time to pay some bills!
 
The last NAB Qantas card I have held, I cancelled in December 2023 - therefore >24 months ago.

I have however, closed a NAB Rewards card this past month.

I note now that the wording of the terms and conditions for the NAB Qantas Rewards Platinum (NAB Qantas Rewards Premium Credit Card) card is different / has changed again, as per below:
Bonus points are not available to customers who currently hold, or have held, any personal NAB Qantas Rewards Credit Card in the last 24 months. Offer is not available when closing or transferring from another NAB credit card account or in conjunction with any other NAB offer.


A few months ago, the T's & C's wording seemed to imply that if you've held any Rewards card in the past 24 months, that you'd be ineligible for the sign-up bonus after minimum spend is met.

Seems it's now been backtracked and each rewards program now has its own blackout period again, ie:

If you've held a NAB Rewards Qantas card in the past 24 months >
You're only ineligible for the sign-up bonus for another NAB Rewards Qantas card (but okay for the Rewards one)

or

If you've held a NAB Rewards card in the past 24 months >
You're only ineligible for the sign-up bonus for another NAB Rewards card (but okay for the Qantas one)

The 2nd part of the wording is a bit ambiguous though. As an existing NAB customer who's had a Rewards card (not Qantas rewards) in the past 24 months, would I be eligible for the sign-up bonus for the Qantas version?

The second bit is if you ring up and say 'can you convert my Qantas Signature card to a non-Qantas one'. Not if you apply for a different flavour separately.

similar here; I had a nab business ID which claimed I would get the reduced AF for, but on my approval there is no mention of that - I plan on complaining if it shows up on my statement as the full AF. 1 quick complaint for $100 is worth the time I think.
