you don't need to be a genius to be honest, to realise that the rock bottom exchange rate during the GFC, will not be stay stagnant.

my parents were so adamant that the rates will even go lower and i convinced them otherwise...

i used to have it (but cancelled it off recently)

you are definitely eligible for the student version (if you are still one) and the limit starts from AUD3000.

the limit will progressively increase from time to time.

it is also free for students, but you will not be eligible to accrue the points from your spending.

not much point to own a credit card for me; my debit cum mastercard will suffice

i applied directly at the branch.

and it was dispatched to me, about a week later.

Oh so they have now removed the Awards for student credit card? When I applied mine back in 2008, they gave me a normal Awards MasterCard and just waived my annual fees upon showing them my student card every year. But come to think of it, I don't recall seeing any specific/tailored for students credit card back then though, guess it must have been a relatively new product.

superficially, they look identical.

just that student's version has the advantages/dis- that I have mentioned earlier.

but they did ask a lot of questions when I wanted to cancel it; typical banks.

no offense to those who support studylink..however, recently i am renewing my student visa at the moment and there are a lot of issues involved. Hence, i decided to go to studylink australia and asked for their advice regarding it. I am just wondering whether is studylink reliable when it comes to visa application? i am sorry if i sound a bit too harsh coz i lack of proper language to address it properly tongue.gif

cheers

I reckon it's the same for visa application, whether you applied through an agent or just by yourself, in the end your documents will go through the same place to be processed. so I reckon it'll be fine. =) no worries.
