Credit Card Offers NAB Qantas Signature Visa card - $250 cashback and 100,000+30,000 Qantas points

Good luck! Let us know if you get bonus points, but T&C suggest you should.

Yep, will report back once I get the sign-up bonus :)

There shouldn't be any reason I don't, as I'm definitely outside the blackout period for the NAB Qantas stream of card.

All setup in Google Pay and have started spending already, before the physical card comes.
 
Applied 2 weeks ago on 22nd Jan and submitted payslips instantly, and still no response. Live Chat keeps telling me to wait 2-3 business days for a response. What a frustrating experience

Definitely call them and follow-up for a response.

Are you an existing NAB customer?
 
Can confirm that they are actioning fee waivers for incorrect AF charges. I wrote in, explained the situation (they'd billed me $420 for the AF), they confirmed the mistake and rectified it immediately. The only downside was that waiting for chat support to respond takes ~24h each time - don't sit around waiting for an agent to connect.
 
Will my partner be eligible if she held a supp card under my name before within the last 24 months n never under her name ?
 
Thankfully my 24 months just lapsed so jumped on this. No problem with application despite having 2 other cards still open. A bit of pain with the NAB ID, it got confused as I had one previously, a bit of back and forth and a visit to the branch and it was all sorted. About 3 working days from lodgement to approval to digital card arriving, with physical card arriving the day after that, so pretty happy with that.
 
Applied and was able to get approved pretty quickly after providing proof of salary and commissions. Was given a stupidly high credit limit but looking forward to some pretty cheap sign on bonus points.
 
trying to determine what are 'eligible everyday purchases' for the min spend - can anyone tell me are household bills included in this? wording is a bit confusing in the t&c's. also they list qantas holidays and jetstar as not eligible - i am assuming this is only for the extra bonus point per dollar, not the min spend?? (i have some QF Hotels to pay for...)

I've now definitely hit the $3k minimum spend for the sign-up bonus - reached in my 2nd month and my latest statement has been issued today, however the 60k bonus points have not been credited - only the "regular" spend points.

From memory, NAB have credited the sign-up bonus on the first statement after the spend criteria is reached, at the same time as "regular" points.

I know the cashback is usually given at some random point in the future, but it's the points that usually come promptly once a statement is issued.

Looking at my records, my last NAB Qantas card was cancelled in 12/2023 and I signed up for this current card in 01/2026, so comfortably over the 24 month blackout period.

I know there's always a disclaimer as per below, but in my experience it's always been credited upon the first statement upon reaching the spend criteria :
"Bonus Qantas Points will be credited to your Qantas Frequent Flyer Membership Account within three months of meeting the spend criteria."

From the T&C:
Everyday purchases exclude transactions NAB decides are wholly or partly for gambling or gaming purposes.
seems to be the only exclusion in that section of the T&C.

There is also a section for transactions that don't earn points:
Transactions that don’t earn points include: Cash advances, bank charges, balance transfers, buying foreign exchange or travellers cheques, ATO payments, BPAY payments, transactions where a cardholder uses a card to access linked transaction accounts, and transactions for gambling or gaming purposes.
Which at times can also be excluded, but doesn't seem to be explicitly mentioned in these T&Cs.

The bonus points hit the statement period after when the spend is met, not the statement period when it’s met.

Not in my experience.

ie. (months and statement periods for examples only)

Month 1 (01/01/2026 - 31/01/2026) - You don't meet the spend
Month 2 (01/02/2026 - 28/02/2026) - You meet the spend

The statement issued at the end of Feb for spend within Month 2 usually has the sign-up bonus (in my experience with 15+ cards).

I saw it posted before but it must have disappeared. Were you on a different promotion than the current one where it was only $3k? Because the current promotion shows with a $5k spend.

I've got the Premium card, not the Signature one.

You're assuming NAB works the same as other credit cards. This is not the case with NAB Qantas cards though. I met the Signature spend in the first statement period. I got the points at the time of the second statement after month two.
