I am on a Disability pension and earn over $25,000 which is required to apply for the C/C but I am actually unemployed so will that stop me from qualifying for the card?

Good morning, My husband wants to apply for ME credit card. He will be working for a different company from next Monday 7/05/2018 after 3 years with present company doing the same work. Will this affect his application. His choice to change.

Hi Linda,

Thank you for getting in touch with finder.

As you click on the application requirements tab it says that the minimum income is $25,000. If you husband has the proof of having that minimum income or more then you have nothing to worry about applying for this card even if he is changing jobs.

Please note: “You can apply for the ME frank credit card online in around 5–10 minutes. To get started, make sure you meet the eligibility criteria and have the required documents and details on hand for a quick application process.”

Employment details. This includes your position, salary and your employer’s name and contact details. If your self-employed, you may need to provide your accountant’s details and your previous Australian Taxation Office statements.

As a friendly reminder, while we do not represent any company we feature on our pages, we can offer you general advice.

I hope this helps.

Have a great day!

Cheers,

Jeni
