Good for overseas travel
Good card to use if you are traveling overseas or buying online from international sellers as you avoid the various overseas transaction charges. Yearly fee is a little high, although there are a number of benefits that offset the fee. Points earning is ok, although nothing great.

Rude customer service
I am shocked by the rude and snarly girl I just spoke to, whilst trying to organise my ANZ rewards complimentary flight. The attitude of girl left a bad taste. After asking to repeat the flight options the girl had a diva moment and it was all too much trouble. I expected better.

Redemption is extremely time consuming and confusing
Tried redeeming points today. Actually went into a branch a very polite ANZ worker did all the computer work (other than my password) for me. Despite over 10,000 points having been transferred, nothing is showing on my account. No points have been transferred. Phoned ANZ cards. Was told my inquiry would be escalated and that I'd have to speak to the Rewards Centre, which is currently closed.
This card is expensive and I don't recall being informed that I'd have to wait 60 days to book it's supposedly free return domestic flight. This information was provided in brochures but I was encouraged to get the card on the phone when I cancelled another ANZ card.
Not good enough ANZ!

ANZ Travel Adventures Card
20 minutes wait for customer service - just not good enough.
$225 annual fee is too expensive as it takes too long to earn enough points.

Questions & Answers
Benasked
What are the fees when using this card at an international ATMs? From the site it says the cash advance fee is waived, however I'm not sure if the FX fee is paid. I get that an ATM fee is also payable. Wanting to use in the USA to get cash out.

I have not done this myself so you would need to double check with ANZ for questions relating to your personal circumstances.
However, I did a quick search & found this on the ANZ information page for a rewards travel adventures credit card -
“Overseas ATM Transaction Fee
Applicable for a withdrawal from a non- ANZ ATM outside Australia (per withdrawal), and debited to your account at the same time as the withdrawal is debited
$5 “
How long does it take after spending that your points are credited to your travel adventures account?
