Discovery Vitality 2023

Well damn, I went running today using the Nike Run Club app not realising it wouldn't sync with Discovery (it does sync from NRC to Apple Health), so I might have missed out on 200-300 points there.
There is a roundabout way of syncing that run from NRC with Strava and then Strava with Discovery, but I'm not sure whether that will even count.
Pity because I like the guided runs in the NRC app but now it seems I'm going to have to use the native Apple Fitness app or Strava directly to sync with Discovery for Vitality Active Rewards. I suppose time will tell though.
 
how is this even possible. I thought i was doing everything to maximise it, but obviously not.
Not quite sure how to explain it (ha ha ha)...My family and I are vegan, so on most months we get the maximum 20k miles. I have young twins, two "toddlers" and a MIL that needs adult care so I make sure that most of the products they use are vitality, which, seeing as it includes diapers, generally ends up at between 12-15k miles per month. Exercise & good driving was about 4k per month, vitality active rewards (3.5-4k a month from 4 plays every week), Fuel & Uber (1.5k a month) and miles back on spend. I am looking forward to getting Vitality Drive cashback in Mies as that will make up for the 4k mile a month loss from the change. As you say, one needs to work through how to maximize the benefits of the program...and this is before the watch, the phone and double miles days!!

I assume, black suite?
 
Anyone else notice that the Discovery accommodation under Vitality travel offers “discounts” that aren’t actually discounts? I found it cheaper to book directly with a hotel even after the Vitality discount.

Also, anyone know how the Clicks HealthyCare rewards are paid to you? I don’t see them reflected as miles and they don’t appear on my Clicks ClubCard points either.

I booked a hotel through Bookings.com and it worked out cheaper than Vitality. The price of flights is still a winner though.
 
As expected it was indicated in the discoverer brochure for Q1. Although they did indicate the new drive rewards should of been live in December. I guess they missed their own deadline. Yea it does suck because points to miles was fairly significant. Was getting 1k miles every week. So it was worth around R650 -R800 per month.

Yep. Discovery is saving a fortune with this gap between removing our points to miles rewards and implementing Vitality 3.0

No incentive for them to implement anytime soon.
 
Has anyone else heard of a minimum Life insurance premium amount in order to join Vitality (Full Vitality) through Discovery Life?
