Which Australian credit card allows me to earn QF points for ATO payments?

Greetings,

I used to have a Westpac Earth Black which earned me 1.5 Qantas points per $1 spent on my Amex. I used it to pay a lot of ATO bills which put my Qantas earn rate into the millions per annum.

However, Westpac have drastically reduced the earn rate for ATO payments and coupled with the service fee the ATO charges for AMEX means it is no longer worth it.

I have looked at a few other Qantas credit cards in Aus and my searches so far are fruitless.

Does anybody know of an Aus credit card that pays Qantas points, or another program I can turn into Qantas points at a reasonable rate, when I make ATO payments?

Regards,

As far as I know, some of the options are:

1. Woolworths Qantas MC - 1pt per dollar uncapped (but there are tales of people having their card cancelled for excessive tax payments)

2. ANZ Private Amex and Visa - 1.5pt per dollar on Amex uncapped; 1pt per dollar on Visa capped at 10,000 points per month

3.HSBC Qantas Platinum Visa - 1 pt per dollar capped at 200,000 per annum

I have personally used all of these. There may be others too...

I thought a number of those listed are barred from making ATO payments?

The Australian Frequent Flyer forum has a million page thread discussing this topic.

I think it will be a better source of info.
