Great rewards points teamed up with flybuys
We have found this card to be very generous with their rewards. We generally get about $800 - $1000 from this mastercard. Teamed up with flybuys it is a great way to rack up those flybuys points. The rewards system is far better than our previous credit card. We pay on time each month so the interest rate does not effect us. The BPAY option is easy to use to pay off the bill. Their customer service has always been helpful and prompt. The annual fee is worth paying for the rewards we make, which we save for Christmas. Overall A++ if you are looking for a good rewards credit card.

Perfect card for anyone who shops at Coles
- This card was offering a generous deal of 120,000 bonus points when picking it up before Jan 2020 and spend $3,000 within the first 90 days of getting it (which is what i spend on groceries and bills alone).
- As a regular Coles shopper being able to utilise the 2 Flybuys points per $1 spent is fantastic to reduce my spending on groceries and they offer great deals from time to time.
- This card can also be used over seas too which offers fantastic benefits as it offers no international transaction fees.

Good transfer balance transfer offer
I simply apply this for the balance transfer offer. I am quite happy with it but quite frustated at the start of the process. Got a call numerous times a day at the wrong time and told the guy that I will call back but he keeps calling.

Good Credit card with one issue for me
Have had this credit card for approx 3-4 years now. I signed up for it primarily for the rewards and incentive at the time for sign up(bonus flybuy points). The card also does not charge for international transactions, which is also great. As a flybuys member this card is a good way to get your point balance up. Earns you 2 points on most purchases.
Overall i find it to be a good card with one exception. I pay my balance in full every month. Unlike my previous credit card, payments take approx. 3 days to clear in my available balance even tho...Read more
ugh the payment is received and acknowledged within 24 hours of it being deducted from my account. If the payment is drawn early in the week, its generally not an issue, but if payment is taken later in the week, for example, Thursday or Friday, it can take up to 4-5 days for the balance to reflect payment received due to the weekend. This can lead me to a number of days of either being in a negative balance or not being able to use the card at all until the payment has cleared on their end. Fortunately the card seems to give a grace amount once you it your limit so its generally not an issue but i have been put in a situation a few times. I will say that i believe that this issue became worse once Citi Bank took over the card from Coles Financial services. Additionally, Citi Bank also removed the ability to earn points on certain things such as payments to government services which i a shame. Overall a solid card with good points and rewards earning potential. Be aware that your selection of rewards is limited to what Flybuys offers or transferring out to Virgin points.- Everyday Expenses

Hassle free
This is my daily use card and have been using for quite many years now with absolutely no issues.
The flybuys points which based on your usage can not only cover the annual fee but can be used in many other ways - travel, meaningful redemptions like household goods etc...
I love the security feature which alerts you if your were card was used overseas and ofcourse as others had mentioned, no international transaction fee is an amazing feature of this card.
The customer service has been fantastic although I have only had to call them 2-3 times in the last few years.
Overall, happy with the card though I do realise other credit cards offer much comprehensive rewards than this one.

Really great card - flybuys points stack up!
Love the double flybuys points, they really stack up quickly with the 2 for 1 Rewards cards. I also get these $100 gift card offers if I spend X dollars in the month which have been great!
New Live Chat feature is really good, and no international fees so it's a great card for travel. Apple pay just launched - love that

Get free flybuy points for every $$$$ spent.
I am having this card for more them 4 years now. Never had any problems and there is a coles credit card app you can install and track your spendings and it's also linked to flybuys so you will be able to track the offers and activate at the same time.

Great Credit Card with AWESOME Features (Use It Like A Debit Card)
1. Awesome Features - No international transaction fees, Transit Insurance, Purchase Insurance, Extended Warranty & Travel Insurance. >> I've used the card comfortably online & abroad in a foreign currency with no unexpected surprises. The exchange rate on the said transaction was usually about 1-2% from market rate, which is better than the rate you would otherwise get at the money changer.
2. Reward Points being Flybuys Points is GREAT - Rather than collecting point 2 exchange for a gift card, cash back or product, I rather use the $10 off a...Read more

No annual fee
I have no annual fee on this card and always pay the full amount before the due date thus not incurring any interest. It is attached to flybuys where I earn points for purchases. I always seem to have enough flybuy points to redeem $10 on a Coles shop. I have not used this card overseas, but I am happy with this credit card.

Good if you are a Coles customer or has many foreign transactions
I had this card for 2 years. This is not a credit card with a big sign up bonus. But I got it anyway because it has no foreign transaction fee (normal credit card charged around 4%) and I believe this is the only reward credit card without the fee. I used it mainly for ebay overseas transactions and spending while in overseas trips. Also you got more points with the card for purchase in Coles. Overseas transactions in general were fine but I did run into several occasions when the card was rejected in overseas restaurants while my bankwest cred...Read more

Great for regular Coles group shoppers
- I signed up to take advantage of the 120,000 Bonus Points when you apply by 31 January 2020 and spend $3,000 in the first 90 days from approval
- I do my weekly grocery shopping at Coles and often utilise Flybuys deals, so having my Flybuys membership barcode on the back of this card is very convenient.
- Collecting 2 Flybuys points per $1 eligible spend has boosted my Flybuys earnings rate.
- I plan to use this card overseas instead of a global currency card as it has no international transaction fees.

As a LONG time customer with one of these cards, I've noticed dramatic changes since Citibank joined. For those who have switched to another credit card company...any good recommendations? I liked this one for the Flybuys.

If you are as crazy as I am gathering Flyby points, then I would stick to the Coles card 100% and reap as many points as possible. If you want to swap, I just became a Bank Australia customer and opened a number of accounts after closing all my CBA ones. They have a very good VISA card with no annual fee and only 12.39% and the same on cash advances. Check them out. We’re really happy with them.
@ Dave, thanks.... from all the reviews I've read, even closing your Coles Mastercard account is difficult! I might stick with them a bit longer and hope they pick up their game!! In the meantime, I'll check out Bank Australia.
