For how long one must hold on to this card after the first wave of bonus sign-up points have been credited?

Do the lounge passes only turn up in your account after the sign-up bonuses have been credited to your account?

You need to ring to request the lounge passes.

Oh, that's news to me. Thanks. The other cards I've had just get them added to your account.

Yep with ANZ call the "card concierge". 1300 580 765, they will organise passes that will appear in QF account after 2-3 days.

The you need to diarise 365 days later to call them again for next set.

Hmm. Didn’t get the signup bonus in the first statement after meeting the required spend (or the annual fee cashback). ANZ generally does it the first month after meeting the spend, don’t they?

Yes. When a credit card bonus doesn’t go through on the first statement it generally means there is a problem but they won’t look at it until after the 90 days or whatever they say in the T&Cs. Then you’ll have to argue your case.

Annoying. I wanted to cancel it. Bit strange it didn’t work. Well over the 12 month exclusion period.

Check tomorrow in reward points on website if statement just issued....

I have this ANZ black card and hit the spend in the 2nd month, received the 100k points & $250 cash back within few days apart. Cashback 1st.

1st statement period was listed as 30days on the statement, but I only had the card for 2 of those weeks. Seemed little odd, hence me not making the spend req in 1st month.

A further data point:
Met the $5k spend requirement in the 1st statement period. I’m about 10 days into the 2nd statement and I notice the 100k bonus pts has shown up to be transferred at the end of the period. Cash back yet to appear.

out of curiosity, has anyone kept this card open for year #2, waited for second bonus points and then cancelled and called for pro rate refund? And if so, what refund (if any) did you get?

I don't think there's pro-rated refunds of annual fees anymore (if ever it's been offered - certainly not in my 6 years of doing the CC churning game) - otherwise they'd be giving 95% of cardholders refunds after they cancel once points have been issued.

I closed my ANZ Qantas Platinum card in Jan after my sign-up bonus points were awarded and haven't received a refund of my annual fee, nor would I expect one.

Pro-rata was on the table and offered for nab signature cards until very recently.
Very much documented here on AFF under NAB cards.
Used it twice myself as many did here, hence it not continuing.

You do need to ask. I have heard from several people who insist they often receive them after asking.

If not HUCA, can't hurt to try.

Ok, so I got the cash back on my card, but not the points yet. It's been nine days.

So, you think I should phone next week if they still haven't appeared too, or wait until the next cycle to check then? I've been with them for three months but only had two statement documents appear in my account so far because there was trouble at their end trying to rig me up in the first place after I applied.

You get the points at the same time as a statement. You won't get them out of cycle.
