I converted my first 500 points into a Cape Union Mart voucher and purchased a pair of work shoes.

Blue was when I got it right.

Noice. I finally breached the 500-point mark and will be cashing in this weekend too!

Who hasn't received their points for the Amashova? Should be 1500 points for a race above 100Km, and counts towards the weekly VAR fitness points.

 

Next, will be... who hasn't received points for last weekend's race? Obviously I can't get as I didn't do the race, but it's also supposed to be automatically added as a Racetec-timed event. It's only the Trail run that needs to be submitted manually, but they haven't responded to any of my queries/mails (yet).

 

 

It's not that I need the points - getting to 900 per week is easy (VAR).
I've reached my limits, but that's a different program (Vitality Status point).

 

Just curious if we're now expected to claim online, of if the automatic submission by timing companies still works.

I gave it two days, but then submitted my points claim for Amashova online. I see it was processed in time for my reward this morning.

For some reason Discovery never allocates my race points automatically; I always have to log the event manually and only then do I receive my points

Same, I would care but none of them are on the race calendar as they only like road runners.

The road races are on the calendar, that’s why I’m asking. They used to automatically do, as I’ve yet to claim manually.

 

 

I’ve also noticed that they’ve stopped sending an automated reference number with queries by email.

wife complained that she only got 3x 25 this week.

I didn't either. Plus I didn't claim it, I had a stupid moment and couldn't find the specific page on the site .

So same points for 160km and 5h, as for walking the Park Run the day before. We've already met our yearly goal, so meh.

Your wife' board has 7 tiles with value of 40 or more (smoothie equivalent) + the diamond - my board this week had only 4 tiles with value of 40 or more which now gives me a 20% chance to get a smoothie (that was a given before all the changes).

 

Once the open period is over, it ain't going to be much fun...at least the 3 picks make up for it at this stage.

 

How will it change after the open period?

You get 1 board play per 100 event free driving KM if you are using the insure app during the 10 week vitality open, after that if you wish to gain the extra plays through driving you need to be a discovery insure client and get the in vehicle tracker.

 

So basically some of us are getting up to 4 maybe even more spins per week, those of us that are not insure clients will drop back to a max of 2 per week.

Ok, I think I've got the good driving thing sorted now. I'll just have to get a quote from them and see how the numbers compare to my current insurance.

 

So if you drive 300 km event free km's in a week, you would get 3 play just for that?

That is how I understand it, but as you know how us mere mortals understand it vs how discovery meant it are 2 very different things.

I didn't receive the 1500 points, so I've sent them a query about it, as I needed the 1500 for my Active Rewards. Was short by 100 points, but I thought it would have been credited before Wednesday.
