Ok Points - still no Apple Pay
Everything keeps listing this card as having Apple Pay. Westpac DO NOT support Apple Pay. This is still a major draw back for Westpac issued cards.
As it is a part of my home loan package the annual fee is waived. Which is good.

7 months in and no reward even though i met requirements. READ FINE PRINT!!
So after hours of Westpac pushing my calls to Qantas and vice versa for hours yesterday, today i get a response from Westpac to say that because i held a credit card within 12months prior to signing up with this new card, i am no eligible for the reward points. They say i should have read the terms and conditions. Emails to encourage your to join to received reward points. Nothing but a Scam.. After 2 decades, it is time for me to change banks and shop for one that are at least honest. Shame on you Westpac.

Perfect card, great mix of perks and rewards
The bundle with Amex for higher points earning is great, there are not many cards left out there with this option. The black card has the highest earn rate of any major banks out there, and the conversion to Qantas points is great.

Easy to accumulate and use points
Qantas lounge passes are a nice bonus. It's easy to earn and use points. Must have income of $75,000+. Should not have such a high annual fee based on this criteria. Happy with card in general.

It was actually really good
I managed to get 120000 qantas frequent flyer points by signing up to this credit card and then kept it for a year after. No issue receiving points, and good points per $ spent.

Ok overall card with perks
Card is easy to use with Tap & Go + Google Pay and Apple Pay.
Currently running a promo until 15th October for 80,000 Qantas FF pts for minimum $4000 spend in first 3 months. Great because annual fee is waived for first year too!
Westpac app is very easy to use and simple to check credit card statement and immediate update using app.
The rewards can used in the Qantas Store - Great for classic reward flight redemptions too. Easy and flexible to use + redeem pts. Comes with complimentary travel insurance and also 2 qantas lounge passes added t...Read more
o your acc which you can transfer to another QFF membership if you like. 0.75 pts per $1 spend - pretty standard for qantas rewards cards from all banks. Application was fairly easy but they had to call me a couple of times to confirm some details. Minimum limit is $15,000 which seems quite high and can significantly impact your borrowing amount if looking for re-finance or conditional pre-approval for loan.- Everyday Expenses

Decent card for sign-up bonus - otherwise there are better cards out there
The Westpac Altitude Black Mastercard and AmEx card bundle is a decent credit card bundle but the annual fee is very high compared to many other cards out there. This bundle is comprised of a Black/World MasterCard directly issued by Westpac and a Black AmEx Card Issued by AmEx but with Westpac branding. Therefore there will be two credit checks if you apply for the complete bundle (also the two cards will have different online access accounts).
The general points earn rate is good on the Black AmEx card (1.25 points/$) but not that good on th...Read more
e Westpac Mastercard (0.75 points/$ which is lower than many other "Black" tier VISA and MasterCards). Points are swept into your Qantas Frequent Flyer account each month and it is relatively easy to redeem them on flights or other things. The MasterCard also gives you 2 Qantas lounge passes if you buy a Qantas flight with them. The AmEx card generally has great telephone service while the Westpac Card less so (but is still not bad). I think it is better to use other cards with 0% foreign transaction fees when traveling overseas as these cards do have a fee of up to 3%. If signing up to this bundle aim for a 120,000 Qantas points sign-up bonus (80,000 on the Mastercard and 40,000 on the Amex) with a reduced annual fee (these promotions usually appear every few months). Do not get these black cards for 'status', as (thankfully) nobody actually gives a toss about that in real world. It is best to objectively evaluate the benefits provided in the form of points value (+ lounge access etc.) compared to the annual fee you pay. Overall I say this card is worth applying for if you qualify and can get a good 120,000 points bonus with a reduced 1st year annual fee.- Everyday Expenses

Best reward card to get a jump on your reward balance
Best card offer on market if you are looking for a jump in your reward balance. They have bonus offers most of the time and great per dollar conversion rate as well. Great app from Westpac to manage your payment and track spending

One of the best black credit available.
It is very simple to use, Tap and Go. Pay with Apple and Android Pay.
Points are easily reedabmle and ongoing promotion of 80,000 Qantas Frequent Flyer available for people who spend at least $4,000 in the first 3 months.
The rewards can used in the Qantas Store and ongoing frequent flyer points.
Furthermore, this has the ability to use the Priorty Pass Lounges globally for all airports. Twice free entry per year. This is an additional value!!!

Great! But could be better. Card is ideal except annual fees.
Similar to any other card provided by other Financial Service companies, there isn't really any real big difference. I have held this card for 3 years now and admit Westpac is pretty good overall, never had any issues with the services provided - the concierge really isn't worth it for the card offering as I found a cheaper flight than what Westpac was able to find online.
The points ratio is alright, though could be better. The only downside was when the split occurred between Westpac bundle and you had to go directly to American Express to o...Read more
btain the benefits of extra points plus an additional yearly annual fee that was already being charged for the use of the MasterCard with Westpac. I am considering shaking off the American Express Black and opting in for the Virgin Platinum instead. The only one gripe I have with Westpac is their disputes procedures, for what I pay annually and the cost of interest throughout the year I found it hard for Westpac to side with me with the clear scams that occur online, unfortunately for me Westpac sided with scammers when I tried to recover $400. I'd give it an overall 7/10.- Everyday Expenses

Previously great, now not!
When we first got this card the points system and rewards were a major deciding factor. It was originally packaged with an American Express card that really boosted the points earnings. Now that has been removed, unless we choose to pay more. Not happy! Will be moving banks as soon as we can.

A good card with set back
I have a Westpac Altitude black card. Its good for accumulating Qantas frequent flyer points and complimentary Travel Insurance, but certainly not good when it comes to paying for my holidays. I do a lot of cruising but when it comes to paying, cruise company like Cruise1st charges 2.5% or more on top of my expensive cruise payment. A lot of restaurants demand a surcharge of 2.5 % on top of your bill. As a result I used my Master card most of the time to eliminate the surcharge. If American Express wants more business out of their clients why don't they do something to make it more user friendly ? I would love to use my American Express card to accumulate points but at the same time it does not make sense to pay the extra surcharge .

This card comes with great benefits
I got this card in November last year when they were running a promotion that you will receive 120k Qantas points when you send $4k within first months of approval. This card also comes with 2 Qantas lounges and also give you access to free Priority Pass Membership. This card has been very useful so far.

Points fraud
I have been using this card for 7 months now. Applied because of a 100000 qantas points sign up. After 3 months and minimum spend amount I recieved 50000 points. After ringing them and asking about the other 50000 they told me I had to wait another 3 months. After these three months I rang again and got told it had to get "investigated"
after 2 weeks and numerous calls back to them they got back to me and said I am not eligible for the other 50000 points and failed to give me a reason why.
I have since lodged a complaint with them and am waiting to get a reply from them.
