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

Not open for further replies.
I received the confirmation email from the estore 5 days after my ebay purchase. I actually received the goods before receiving the estore email. The email says points will be posted within 30 days.

Quick 3 min search at the Wilsons site and found a weekend rate in East Melbourne for $4.50.
 
I'm trying to make an online booking with Wilson Parking....I need to enter a verification code sent to my email but despite multiple attempts, have not received the email (Have checked spam folder). Anyone else having this issue?

Also I made a purchase with DJs via the Velocity estore....a comment above mentions receiving an email from Velocity confirming the purchase via the e store. When will I get this email?
I received the verification code email shortly after setting up the account. It went to my spam folder but arrived in a few minutes.

My e store purchase was on Saturday and I received the email on Monday. It said "Our retailer, The Book Depository AU, has informed us that you made a transaction with them on 24 Nov 2018. As a result you have Velocity Points pending." I'm guessing email times may vary depending on the retailer?

Verified myself by logging in via my Google+ account as never got email.

OK thanks for replies

So have completed:
1) Wilson Parking booked
2) Shopped at DJs via the Velocity e store.

Now, I just need to:
3) earn 2000 FB pts to TF to Velocity as I recently TFd all my FB pts to Velocity for the 15% bonus; I did complete a spend $90 earn 2000 FB pts bonus at Coles today.
4) I just need to use some fuel up as I filled up my car completely 2 days ago before heading to BP to put some petrol in.
5) Not sure which partner but probably Autobarn but this is 1/2 hr drive from home but may help achieve 4) above.

:) :)
 
The purchases we have made have been for things we need or were going to buy anyway.

Across two accounts:

2 x 1001 from Flybuys (includes 15% bonus) - posted
2 x 100 from SkyBus (I need to use these next month) - posted
2 x 16 from AutoBarn (LED car Dome lights on sale that I was looking to buy in any case[10 x brighter than standard incandescent using ¼ the power])
1 x 214 Wilson Parking (Prepaid weekend parking at Park Hyatt Melbourne - am staying there for AFF MEL Christmas Dinner and was always going to "book-a-bay")
2 x 14 points (ave.) BP tank top up 5l + 7l
1 x Virgin wines purchase (including $50 Amex rebate)
1 x 240 eStore (10 pp$ bonus)

That's actually 6 for one account and 5 for the other ... but we was going to spend anyway ... so there's 20k Bonus Velocity bonus.

The only thing I may have done differently was the eStore purchase.

Has anyone used Wilson as part of this promotion and received their points yet?
When I've done book-a-bay, I have not received any points until a couple of days after the parking date.

However, I have not used it for five months and Wilson's systems have changed in that time.

At autobarn and BP you can have them type in the number.

Online you obviously just type it in.

The phone app didin't work. At autobarn, the guy added the number manually. At BP, the guy said he can't (or didn't know how to) add the number manually :(

Yes, you can use an out of date one. I did this for SWMBO at Autobarn.

So the cheapest way to get 10,000 bonus points is:

$1 spend at Autobarn
1L at BP
Flybuys transfer
Short park at Wilson Parking
Something cheap at Velocity eStore
Credit card points from Virgin money count?
 
I booked my Wilsons for last Friday and got my points already but my Autobarn points from Friday haven't appeared yet so will keep an eye on that
 
How long does it typically take for Virgin Wines points to credit? Bought a couple of cases several days ago and nothing yet.

Have they been delivered yet? IME, Virgin Wines take a week or three to deliver, points follow in a similar time-frame.
