AJP Posted January 7, 2016 Share Anyone else struggling with uploading / updating a Strava activity onto Vitality? Did a ride today and my last workout shows 02 January. Off topic: was "exploring" Langebaan on a rented fat bike from John at Cycle Works - what a top bloke! I was just riding the fatty, enjoying life and forgot about all the negative stuff I struggle with the strava update as well. . .have had to disconnect my strava account from vitality and rejoin to get it to sync my activities. But now still not syncing, some issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatross Posted January 8, 2016 Share http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/16/01/07/6ad4a5b8aa2fdd59ed4fa2bb3852fc4d.jpg Is this normal when you have over 2000 points showing under "get active"? For the past week starting on Saturday FYI: I've not used the Apple Watch I signed up for, but the Strava app, and two Garmin devices, as well as a Parkrun to get the points. Edit: photoMy wife having similar issue, her garmin logged 300 points this week but her status still shows target not achieved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segal Posted January 8, 2016 Share I struggle with the strava update as well. . .have had to disconnect my strava account from vitality and rejoin to get it to sync my activities. But now still not syncing, some issues.I had the same issue with all my phone apps and discovery, since around new years.I found that by simply restarting my phone, everything suddenly syncs. Simple solution for the meantime.Also just got a very nice sms, R1000 cash back was just paid into my account from my healthygear card Healthy Gear at sportsmans warehouse rocks!!!!

eccc whippet Posted January 8, 2016 Share My points have climbed to 4000 achieved without even trying...since the new structure kicked in [emoji3] I only need to achieve 600 to reach my goal per week. Edited January 8, 2016 by isetech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veebee Posted January 8, 2016 Share 1 question on Team Vitality Cycling, regarding the Garmin voucher, how does it work and what items can it be used for? Can I get a Forerunner watch as I already have an Edge510? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted January 8, 2016 Share 1 question on Team Vitality Cycling, regarding the Garmin voucher, how does it work and what items can it be used for? Can I get a Forerunner watch as I already have an Edge510? Voucher is pretty useless, very limited range on what you can get using it, especially if you already have other garmin products Voucher gives you 15% off whatever is on the webpage http://www.garminonline.co.za/team-vitality-cycling Similar with the beats, R500 off a set of R2500 headphones http://www.myistore.co.za/accessories/beats The only voucher I might consider is the Rudy projects one. For me am basically getting the shirt, my CSA licence and whatever I can get back on races entered.

'Kaze Pete Posted January 8, 2016 Share Taking the Edge 520 as an example: Team Vitality: R7399 - R1109 = R6290Autostyle: R5350easyBike: R6499 discounted to R5349 The Edge 1000 looks just stupidly overpriced for team Vitality at R11899 vs R8995 and R8999 And I have to pay for membership to be ripped off?I'd much rather join a real cycling club with marshals and sweeper vehicles and a sense of cameradie on regular weekly rides! Even more so for the running club! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Kaze Pete Posted January 8, 2016 Share Do you not get 15% off at places like sportmans if you have the credit card and healthy thing activated? My reply is aimed directly at the team Vitality benefits. Healthy gear is a separate benefit, and if you've dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's for to activate the 15% discount on those, at Sportsmans Warehouse the; Edge 520 will cost R6500 - 15% = R5590 (cheapest other 2 shown above = R5349Edge 1000 will cost R10500 - 15% = R8925 (cheapest other two = R8995) One slightly more expensive, and one slightly cheaper than shopping around.

Muttley Posted January 8, 2016 Share On another point, I've noticed that the Discovery Website and App is really slow- even when using 4G, it's 19voetsek slow... Has any one else had the same issue? I also saw this: http://www.timeslive.co.za/local/2016/01/08/Frustrated-Vitality-members-struggle-to-get-service Seems like working in the Vitality Dept must be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uni Posted January 8, 2016 Share Discovery's timeline is filled with complaints about activities not synching, points not reflecting, site is slow.there suggestions 1. site is slow because lots of people are trying to access it - new year and all that.2. make sure you have the latest discovery app installed - they released an update.3. devices and activities not synching - they're looking into it.

I've found that for a while now, their site has been rather slow (even through out last year)... I think it's time that they do some upgrades...

True. Looking at getting the Edge 25 as a running cycling cheapie, heart rate and GPS for R2700 with discovery, seen some smart ways to mount 1/4 turn mounts to wrist.

Needs to be far simpler and with more server space / power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
