Discovery Vitality [2018]

Pretty sure it will count towards your max spend for the month. You could always phone them to confirm.

Edit:
Phoned them on your behalf and they confirmed it. If you buy a pair of shoes for the shoe booster benefit, that purchase will count towards your max spend for healthygear for the month.

You could always buy the clothes the following month to make sure you don't lose out on the healthygear benefit.

Also check which items qualify for healthygear, as not all item purchases qualify for the benefit.

Thanks for finding out for me. I usually prefer asking forums because I find that the end users know more than the contact staff. I guess ill have to weigh up what i need more urgently: clothes or shoes.
 
After you've achieved 100km it will all ways reset again
We were talking about passenger/gautrain trips that have a 3star or less rating that resets our count back to 0.
So we never hit 100km because it keeps resetting unless we remember to disable GPS, etc before climbing on public transport, etc
EDIT: we do mark trips as other but it still resets our score

According to the shoe booster guide, you can only activate it until the end of November. I assume they'll allow it again in January.

Thanks. I did see that and that’s why I wanted to activate it ASAP because the activation fee only ever goes up and not down (based on Apple Watch benefit history)

My bonus play shows driving... or am I looking in the wrong place for bonus challenges?
EDIT: Or are bonus plays unique to users?

Current one is driving, the one for next week is the 5 km run (got an e-mail about it.)

This week’s bonus play challenge comes from one of our favourite Vitality ambassadors – Stanley the Dachshund, our Vitality ambassador from the UK.

Hi

Weather aside, we love the outdoors here in the UK and with a bit of convincing (usually through the promise of Vitality points), you’ll find me on an evening walk or weekend run – mainly so that I can help get my owners (p)awesome rewards like coffees, movie tickets, groceries and even holidays.

Here is your bonus play challenge for this week:

Do a 5km walk or run before 3 November. You can complete a parkrun on Saturday or a myrun on Sunday. Even better, take a dog with you! Your bonus play will be available on 7 November to use before 14 November.

Have you revealed a diamond yet? Every gameboard has one so pick the right tile and you could win prizes for LIFE.

Happy 5km-ing,

Yeah, Park Run would be an easier bet, lots more of them and free -you just need to print your barcode.

I invested in one of the armbands that's got the barcode printed on it, was worth it as you can't lose it and not too expensive, think it was R150
 
I can't do the park run as I'm back in sa tomorrow

Yup, I have one too- very useful purchase if you run regularly.
 
I downloaded the Insure app and despite managing to get 100 incident free km's two weeks in a row it reminded me of my frustrations when I was covered by Discovery Insure :rolleyes: Last week which was the first week using the app again, I managed to do 102km and the goal was reset, WTF.

I have also logged an issue with Discovery as according to my Health and Activity apps I managed 10044 steps yesterday but have only been awarded 50 points.
 
Is there anything one can do when Insure has speed limits wrong? I keep getting nailed on 70 zones when Insure says it's 60.
