webs Posted November 14, 2017 Share Its times like this that we should boycott and demand they give us all our goals as now I have to kill myself to get 300 points this evening just incase I didnt reach my goal yet, as I have no way in telling that I need 100 vs 300 points to get it thanks to a broken appI still can't acces Vitality Active Rewards page. Anyone else still struggling. Happened after the last update on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HdB Posted November 14, 2017 Share I can get in, and the app has finally decided to show the points for last night's workout.My wife's is still not showing her workout from last night, and hers normally shows within minutes of syncing the device. The app/system seems to have taken a arrow to the knee since the new random reward thing launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaBee Posted November 15, 2017 Share Dear thunder... can they not make it simple to understand? I assume half a truckload or more of you are on Vitality and belonging to Virgin Active. Can somebody please enlighten me what the heck is actually going on ito benefits? Biggest question: Why "up to 75%" savings on monthly installments? Then in the same breath - Why does VA website only talk about 50% savings?If I read it correctly, it looks as if it is 75% for either/both myself and my wife, should we elect to take the only-go-to-local-gym-option, which is what I plan to do anyway. (Only for swimming... the rest I do outdoors!) Gym booster will get then you the additional 25%, presuming you've met all targets for a month. But that will then only be 100% off should you hit that 75% in initial question. What else have I missed - and is anybody (Myyyyles...?) aware of any changes coming for next year? Like I said, I train outside and only now starting to contemplate this in order to get swimming for XTerra/Tri's. Don't want to get myself into a commitment and then the T&C's change in 2 month's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted November 15, 2017 Share From what I remember, and AFAIK it hasn't changed (unless they snuck something in and haven't told us and didn't sort it at the training sessions) it's as such: Initial 75% discount on single gym membership Goes to 100% based on Gym Booster If you fall below 36 annual visits, base discount goes to 50% until such time as you have 36 visits in a rolling year. Initial Premier membership discount is 67% No Gym Booster applies to Premier If you fall below 36 annual visits on premier, you get dropped to 50% until such time as you have 36 visits in a rolling year. No changes, as far as I'm aware. Not sure where VA gets their 50% from. SeaBee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted November 15, 2017 Share Yep, still as per the above. Taken from the marketing material "Save up to 75% on your monthly gym fees and boost your savings up to 100% with Gym Booster" Up to 75% depending on visits over a rolling year and whether premier or single club membership. Up to 100% on gym booster with single club membership only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolver Posted November 15, 2017 Share Myles have they ever explained the reason/logic behind gym booster only being applicable to the single gym membership and not premier? I assume it's because premier members are more likely to hit the targets..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume it's because premier members are more likely to hit the targets.....It's arse about face, IMO. Apparently the rand cost saving at 67% was already higher than the 75% on single club memberships so they didn't think an extra discount was warranted. coughBULLSHITcough Or at least that's the reason that was continually given to me shaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So sick of being held to one club and just being allowed to visit another club ONCE, EVER. I travel quite a bit between here and PMB and the club there is really nice.

Kemsley Wood Posted November 18, 2017 Share Sunto and Vitality points.Why does Vitality not recognize the steps taken by a Sunto Sports watches????This is very frustrating and I wish they would have made this more clear to us. I now have a Sunto Spartan Sports watch which I love but it is now useless as my daily steps are for nothing. No Vitality steps allocated.Sunto is a very well known and respected sports watch brand not some cheap junk.They say Sunto do tack steps but we do not receive this data!!!!!! WHY NOT?

WHY NOT?I've been through this with some clients before. It's an idiosyncrasy of the SUUNTO software. The watch records steps, but Movescount - for some reason - doesn't keep the data properly, which means it doesn't sync with the Vitality platform. Unfortunately it's a quirk, and as far as I know it doesn't have a workaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
