Is anyone aware of a glitch on the Vitality system. I have been awarded my health check points for the year, but my last health check was in Dec 2019.
Thanks. I'm relieved as I don't have my 2019 waistline anymore.It’s not a glitch. They’ve decided to award you the greater number of points that you earned last year vs this year if last year was greater. This is because they understand that not everyone has been able to get out and do all the required tests.
You mean my pre2010 membership is ending?I heard the original Virgin Active Gym booster is ending on 1 Jan 2021. Should I move my Virgin Active debit order to Discovery instead of FNB, where it currently is, to continue earning 100% back ?
Anyone who has already done this ?
No idea what they were referring to.You mean my pre2010 membership is ending?
Pre 2010 is 100% free for single gym. No cashback needed. Pretty sure if you were pre2010 you would know itNo idea what they were referring to.
I've been on Vitality for 5 years and had the Discovery credit card linked to FNB and had always received 100% of my gym fees from discount + cashback for reaching my targets.
Apparently I won't be able to get the 25% back if my debit orders are going through FNB.
Thats what they explained to me.
However, I think I should do some reading/research myself.
I have stated that I've been on vitality for 5 years. Thus I don't receive 100% free. I currently receive 75% discount and 25% cashback (depending on acheiving all targets)Pre 2010 is 100% free for single gym. No cashback needed. Pretty sure if you were pre2010 you would know it
Fair enough but I wasn't the one asking about itI have stated that I've been on vitality for 5 years. Thus I don't receive 100% free. I currently receive 75% discount and 25% cashback (depending on acheiving all targets)

The email I received from.discovery didn't say the debit order needs to come off a discovery bank account, it just says you need to spend on your discovery bank card .or did I miss that?Yeah everyone's being moved over to the 75% off, can only get 25% additional back if you have the bank etc. I assume this excludes Pre 2010 benefit.
Any idea how to change the debit order for virgin active? Thought it used to be on the virgin active app.

So if you actived gym booster prior to 1 jan 2020 then you still qualify for gym.booster without changing your debit order to a discovery bank?

Nope - The existing Vitality Active Rewards gym booster benefit is changing for all existing Vitality Health clients from 1 January 2021, which means your maximum gym saving will be up to 75% in 2021...

Don't need full bank from what I can see.. Just card is fine, yes?So you have to get bank for maximum savings. Don’t mind since I’m already on bank.
