Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 8, 2020 Share Was Vitality membership monthly before? I always thought it was a once off payment? https://www.discovery.co.za/vitality/rates-2021?utm_source=hybris&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=vitality_newsletter_october_2020&utm_content=vitality_rates The Vitality monthly membership contributions for next year are as follows: Vitality Member R290 Member + 1 R355 Member + 2 R410 Puff puff pass, bro.

shaper Posted October 8, 2020 Share Puff puff pass, bro. I need what you're smoking... Please correct me then... as I always thought you paid for Vitality running and Vitality cycling separately depending on which one you wanted to join/or both. That was a once off fee... hence the question Maybe it more foggy covid than smoking Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And those are annual fees not once-offs either. shaper and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annually billed, as Jehosefat says. Vitality itself is monthly. Has been forever (unless it was annually before 2008, when I first joined Disco) Edited October 8, 2020 by Captain Fastbastard Mayhem shaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted October 10, 2020 Share A heads up for those that haven’t done the Health and/or Fitness Assessment yet. They will take the higher of points earned in 2019 or 2020 and apply that for 2020, i.e. you aren’t forced to do it this year, it you’ll still get points providing you did these in 2019.

But I was not able to get anything about this from the Discovery website. Worth noting that the goal posts have been movef again ..... going to need to join Discovery bank if you want good Vitality rewards ... best follow up with your broker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re still there. The DB account just gets you better ones, like the disc card did, before. No changing goal posts. Vit rewards have always been enhanced with the presence of other Disco products. Garden variety vitality is still as good as it’s always been, and you aren’t suddenly getting worse benefits if you don’t have a card.

The article on "Netwerk24" certainly creates a different impression: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spafsack Posted October 11, 2020 Share Has anyone migrated to discovery bank from the normal card. I keep on getting calls to do it. Don't want extra fees per month though. What are the actual benefits, must you have cash in savings at all times etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Robin Posted October 11, 2020 Share So i am on Discovery Medical Aid and am contemplating joining Vitality but is it a mission to do as in to actually do the admin to get the points? Presuming some stuff will be easy to link automatically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmarc Posted October 12, 2020 Share My wife has a FitBit Alta HR - Can anyone tell me if this can be used to track exorcise sessions for HR for Disco points - I've tried everything can't seem to get it to track an exorcise session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just want to enjoy the benefits of Vitality, it's simple as pie. Red Robin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertusras Posted October 14, 2020 Share Myles, we all know now that if your 2019 Vitality Health points were higher than this years' (or if you didn't go for your tests this year) it will get carried over, but do you know whether this is also applicable to your Vitality Drive points? I was due for my annual inspection last month (but was lazy), but I now note on my Drive profile that my points are valid until 2021 Was hoping you knew before I sent them a query.
