Christmas Bonus Of Up To 10,000 Velocity Points (2018)

[Ausbt]

The Autobarn-branded windscreen shades are the goods - circa $16 and work really well, I bought two.

Virgin Wines take a few weeks to credit. No sign of the 3K bonus points they had an offer for as well though, just the base points so far.

It says BP Fuel... does this mean buying a drink from the shop doesn't count?

Correct, the T&C's state "BP Fuel". Therefore buying a pack of sweets isn't going to cut it.

Good pickup. Although the original email I received just said "BP":



As does this page: BP FUEL Your fuel could get you flying. Fill up with Points every time you fill up or shop at BP.

Can anyone who's bought fuel at BP and had the points credit to their Velocity account confirm how they appear on your activity statement?

My (in store) transaction shows up as "BP Shop Base Points":



Are fuel transactions logged differently? Wondering if I need to go back and buy petrol instead.

I feel that if it didn't specify 'BP Fuel' in the T&C of the email you would be entitled to think shop purchases would be included.

Wilsons points credited despite being a no-show, this is for 33 Cross St Double Bay, thanks to the person who told us about that carpark (only $3)

Damn it, I paid $5 to ghost park in Adelaide. It's a weird state of affairs when something is cheaper in Double Bay than Adelaide

I bought fuel and my activity statement says "BP Unleaded E10 91 Base Points".

Recently I made a purchase of fuel and grabbed a couple of drinks and each posted as seperate transactions.

I just checked with Velocity customer service and yes it needs to be a fuel transaction . Going to be some unhappy people when their points don’t eventuate!

Really? BP fuel does not just mean a brand?

Thanks for confirming. Looks like I’ll be calling in at BP over the weekend on my way to pick up a couple of red buckets at Autobarn...

I guess one question is does the 20 litre + 20 + 20 fill bonus for 1,600 points only count for that offer and not toward the Christmas bonus. Sorry i would read the T&Cs but on the go and it’s hard to do mobile.

Don’t the account names have to match? My flybuys account was in my shortened first name originally, and I had to change it to match my velocity account before I could link them.

add a new cardholder as long as the cardholder is in the same household as per the flybuys account terms, then the velocity details will match

You need to go to my account and cardholders to do so

 

[doctau]

My wife's bag of ice at BP from a week ago has posted to her account, but my fuel from four weeks ago hasn't posted to mine. On the other hand my cheap eBay buy for a secret santa has posted, but her charity donation hasn't even shown up in the estore pending list.

I'm not worried about when they post since it's activity date that counts, but whether they'll post at all. Anyway, off to AutoBarn tomorrow for that set.

 

[Aus ATC]

Yes. Plus I have heard horror stories about refunds leading to the suspension of Velocity accounts pending review.

Hmmm - might pick up my Jelly Beans after all from DJ Toowong.

Plastic nail file for travellers. Cheap:

Thanks for the link - but caution suggests a trip to DJ after all.

I don't believe that's right.

There's no velocity partner called "BP shop" - there's only the one partner called BP fuel, and the promotion is about partners used, not products.

Im pretty confident BP shop will be OK.
My Autobarn purchase hasn't hit despite the other 5 family members from the same visit doing so. To be safe booked a Wilson bay (for $8 was not over bothered about getting it down further)

 

[Glider_]

My Wilson's bookings just aren't coming through. First booking in early December, nada, two emails chasing it up, no reply to either, did a second booking last week just to be sure and still nada. *shakes fist at Wilsons* damn you got my money twice for NO service AND nothing for this promo.

Off to Virgin wines... missed out on the bonus point carton... this promo hasn't been fun or easy for me.
