Hi Everyone
I've just joined this site today and am eager to get my frequent flyer points happening!!!
I currently have a Westpac Altitude Visa card and am thinking of changing to another one.
What is the best card that gives you the most points for frequent flyer?
I currently have a balance of about $7000 on my current card so was thinking to get another one with the 'low interest fee for 12 months' deal.
Can anyone help me out??? Please???

Thanks

Welcome...

See the sectio on the Forum on credit cards..
http://www.frequentflyer.com.au/comm...alty-programs/

However:

** for VISA get a "free for life Citibank" Citibank Australia - Special Introductory Offer Application Earn rate is double that of your Westpac (1 instead of 0.5 for gettiong FF points)

** and then get an Amex.

*****Maximiser is free for 12 months..earn rate of 1.5

***** watch out for an Qantas Premium Amex sigh on bunus. They come up regularly with about 15000 points.

If heading overseas consider gettinga Wizard Mastercard to avoid ATM fees. It is free.

Read the above section and you will learn all you need to know.

Cheers.

Welcome to AFF.

I also suggest you look at The Ultimate Qantas Guide which will give you a wealth of information on a variety of topics.
