signed up end of Jan

After cancelling my first policy I was subsequently charged a premium the week after. As I had made so many points out of it I didn’t really care that I’d been charged extra, but yesterday I received a letter confirming my cancellation and saying they’d chargeback the last premium. Pretty decent of them.

I signed up end of Jan - 5 policies.

In March received 4 postings of basic points, in April received 3 postings of basic points, will cancel at end of month regardless, but would love my bonus points to appear.

THats what I an wondering, are they going to or are we going to have to fight for it, as each day goes on am expecting perhaps the latter. So far have only seen someone claiming 2 * 10K so supect something is going on.

I signed up for my extra policies months after the first, so wont be able to report on another 20k worth of points for a couple months yet.

The question is whether the bonus points are due for those who applied at end of January. This determines whether we can start initiating written complaint letters.

The fact that people have posted here they are getting the bonus points would suggest the answer is yes, but you might want to give them a couple of weeks given the promotion said up to 4 months.

I received my bonus points coupled with my 3rd lot of points from the policy, if your third lot of points has posted without the bonus points, it’s time to phone up and ask, but not to assume that they’ve done you wrong as the promotion allows for a greater length of time than that anyway!

OnePath, you're testing my patience. Give me my 4 x 10,000 bonus points!

I applied for two lots in Feb (one at start and one on the 16th, different policy types), have just received my third lot of points but the bonus was paid on the second policy. Work that one out! Anyway will now cancel the 2nd but at $8.15 a month may keep the first open (and write a letter asking where the points are).

My second 10K has arrived!

 

[samh004]

Two more lots of points came through today. Now I just have to wait a month for the third and bonus points to come and I’ll be done.

1st policy deduction 15/2 - 10,000 points arrived today.
2nd policy started 21/2... points for the premium, but not the bonus (yet).

So just need that one to cough up it's bonus and I'll cancel both.

What, you aren't going to cancel them all then start again?

 

[drewbles]

Am happy to say all mine have now come through.

Does this mean cancelling and re-applying will result in another 10k? Has anyone tried that one yet?

I don’t think I can be bothered, and don’t want to appear that greedy… otherwise I’d probably have about 20 policies open by now…

I think it is at least a month before we get an answer on that!

But not doing so is against the spirit of points collection

 

[casanovawa]

Hmmm, no bouns points at all yet, even though i held all 4 policies for at least 3 payment cycles before cancelling...

If multiple bonus points don't show up in my account by tomorrow someone at Onepath is going to be getting a friggin earful!!

Not quite the same qualms in my case, but I still think the requirement that these be "new" policies might be rejected with multiple policies at the same time, whereas cancel and re-apply is harder to reject as a new policy.
Still no sign of the multiple policy condition that was in the magazine appearing in the T&C's though.
