It's slightly better than the previous offer but worth posting.

My referral link is http://amex.com.au/refer/sTEPHBLHAq?CPID=100477784 (note I get a referral bonus too).

You will receive 120,000 Velocity Points when you apply online by 1 June 2022 for the American Express Velocity Platinum Card, are approved, and spend $3,500 on your new Card within the first 3 months. Offer available to new Card Members only.

  • 2.25 VELOCITY POINTS on eligible purchases with Virgin Australia per $1 spent
  • 0.5 VELOCITY POINTS on purchases at government bodies in Australia per $1 spent
  • 1.25 VELOCITY POINTS on Card purchases, except spend at government bodies in Australia per $1 spent

    Highlights​

    • Receive 100 Velocity Frequent Flyer Status Credits, when you spend a minimum of $50,000 within your Card membership year
    • Earn 1.25 Velocity Points per $1 spent, except government bodies in Australia where you will earn 0.5 Velocity Points per $1 spent
    • Earn 1 additional Velocity Point per $1 spent on purchases with Virgin Australia
    • Complimentary Virgin Australia return domestic flight after your first Card spend each year
    • Enjoy 2 complimentary Virgin Australia lounge invitations each anniversary year at selected airports
    • Enjoy two complimentary entries per year to the American Express Lounge, located at Sydney International Airport or Melbourne International Airport
    • Complimentary domestic and international travel insurance

 
I'd like to throw my hat in the ring with my referral also.
Same conditions as above post. Scroll down the referral page to select the card you want.

Thank you to anyone who applies.
 
Anyone know how strict they are about "New Card Members only"? I have another AmEx card.

(Sorry guys, I signed up back in May - just wondering if I'm ever going to get the 100,000 bonus points on offer then, or if I've been conned!)

Unlikely to get points but even less likely that you have been conned. Very clear in the T&C's.

You mean the Terms and Conditions that have often have numbered references to notes but no actual footnotes? (I note that the link provided does have numbered footnotes, but I'm pretty diligent about reading terms and conditions, when they're available, and I probably wouldn't have bothered with this card if I had thought there was any chance I wouldn't qualify for the 100,000.)

We'll see. I haven't reached the three-month qualifying period yet, but have far exceeded the required spend.
 
Currently the offer is 75k points, what do people think the chances of a better offer happening in the next year?
 
The Frequent Flyer Concierge team takes the hard work out of finding reward seat availability. Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, they'll help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

You won’t get the points. Happened to me. I was about a month short of the 18 month wait. I didn’t do my sums right and I rang and complained but I still didn’t get the points
 
This card has a current promo of 75,000 VA points. Are there any referral offers for this card? Someone else may as well get something out of my application.

Sent you a PM. Just checked my referral code and still says it is good for the 75,000pt Velocity Platinum Card
