Saag Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 You get 150 for the ride and 50 bonus for heart rate being above 60%. Or you left the step tracker on and you got 50 points for doing 12000 stepsNope. See picture

Bloukrans Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) just putting it out there Ill be willing to pay for this...Me too Myles has been an invaluable source of info and even I understand Vitality better now I'm planning to use Vitality more efficient to get the benefits. When will the guide for dummies be available. As Latent Blue and I said we are willing to pay for it. Im sure other hubbers feel yhe same way. Myles I suggest you consider sending it to hubbers via pm who are willing to pay for such guide. It is after all your time and professional expertise. In the wake of the Nene sacking please remember we will pay in rands! !!!! LOL Edited December 11, 2015 by Bloukrans Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, Frosty and Latent_Blue 3

Got a deadline for an assignment for a course that I'm doing at the moment, and, well.. yeah. Will get the Vitality For Dummies up as soon as I can. So I am trying to understand this... So on the image below it says I've been to the gym twice (actually its 4 times, still waiting for the others...) I understand they take a while to show, but why doesnt those two activities show in my rewards points total goal thing? I phoned vitality about this yesterday and they did not help much... just said I must wait... Am I now going to miss out on this weeks reward (even though I smashed my target of 150 if can point that out ) I checked my vitality app (as in Saag's post above) And it shows nothing, niks, zero... (even Saturdays one - niks) Edited December 11, 2015 by Latent_Blue

(even Saturdays one - niks)Sometimes it does lag a bit, and I have no idea why. Last week, it resulted in me missing my goal. It took a workout from the 3rd and then the 5th, but not my Friday night walk on the 4th... Latent_Blue 1
JoshK Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) I'm on Diamond. Savings that I use the most are on travelling. For instance I'm about to book tickets with Emirates to Chicago - normal price is R14200 and I'll be getting it for R9400. To get to gold is very easy imho, I don't really do anything out of the ordinary except for the health check which I had to make a 15 minute appointment for and then drive to it.I have been on Diamond for a long time and have most of the Discovery Products. Here's a summary of my rewards for the last 12 months:Discovery card cash back R3 515 Miles earned 50 539 (value of R5 000)Gym = freeHealthy food savings R1 800Discovery insure cash back R8 400Hotel savings R8 324 (one booking at 50% savings rate)Life policy cash back in 2013 R57 611 (next payment due back in 2018)Flights = various paid for by discovery miles and discounts. Active rewards = A couple of free smoothies AND a free apple watch!Free movies for my kids and discounted for the adults.I'm sure I'm forgetting a few other things. As a worst case scenario I have received R27 039 in cash and incentives and thats ignoring a few of the items on the list above.

eccc whippet Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Wednesday came and went...no reward...was a bit bummed...checked my strava...had done rides last week...points reflected 0...yesterday i logged on again to check...there it was last week goals achieved...and 200 point towards this weeks goal Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 This is my suspicious look: walked the dog at 7h30, finished at 8h30. Was just lit by the stars. Wonderful... Latent_Blue 1
Orbit Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Some interesting results from Tuesday's workout. Normally I'd get 50+150 but this time I got a further 50+50 on top of the 50+150.The weekend ride (on the 5th) was more intense, 6x the distance yet it only scored 50+150.If 2016 is correct... in that a >100km ride gets 3000 points then this rewards thing will be a piece of cake. Mine is doing the same thing. I've got 300 points for every workout this week. Looks like they introduced the calories bonus points but the system doesn't know about the cap at 200/workout. (This is the first week I'm getting calorie bonus so I'm assuming it's new) Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Latent_Blue Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 walked the dog at 7h30, finished at 8h30. Was just lit by the stars. Wonderful... I somtimes wish I didnt like sleep that much! I always feel like going for a run at 10pm Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 I somtimes wish I didnt like sleep that much! I always feel like going for a run at 10pmyeah, it's actually really cool. No one around. Blissfully quiet, and you can just go for it.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Okay. Almost done with my assignment, and then I'll continue with the Vitality for Dummies. It's going to be a fairly long document (already more than 700 words) but it will be comprehensive, and cover the effect it has on Life Policies as well. Bear with me, guys.
