Need a new credit card deal earning QF points, suggestions?

[ellen10]

I have now cancelled my ANZ Platinum card. I really liked that card but did not want to pay the hefty annual fee.

Looking for a new credit card deal to sign up to. Something that would give me bonus QF sign on points and no annual fee? Any suggestions?

Not $0 annual fee but for $150 there's the Jetstar Platinum card. For a $150 annual you get 50k sign up bonus and earn 1QFF Pt / $1 up to $100k/yr.

Other than the ANZ deal, there doesn't seem to be any No Annual Fee cards going around, the cheapest is the Jetstar Platinum Card for $69

If you use refer a friend, the Amex Qantas Discovery card gives you 12,500 sign up bonus when you spend $300 within 3 months, and an additional 2500 for your first spend on QF flights. The public offer is only 5000+2500.

I realise 15,000 sign on bonus isn't huge, but the card is fee free for life and has uncapped points earning so it is a good one to keep just for the Amex promos etc. It also appears to give 1 point per $ for ATO and utilities spend, unlike Amex's more expensive cards!

You can get a referral from my link in on the referral offers board.

Another card to look at is Qantas Ultimate American Express. They are offering 80000 Qantas points bonus. Yes there is $450 annual fee HOWEVER you also get a free Qantas domestic return flight included as well:

Hmmm sounds interesting......is it hard to get the free flight? or can you book any flight?
Not like classic award flights?
