Earn Velocity points paying bills with Australia Post

[Demonoid]

Yeah, I'm not convinced yet. Will have to dig some more.

I was able to add my AMEX - but when the time came to pay my telstra bill, it did not allow me to pay it (so I am assuming you can't double dip on the points).
Looks like I might can it now that I have my 1000 points.

So I register a digital mailbox and get the points?
Its now under Home/business:
t is listed on the Velocity sitevelocityfrequentflyer.com/content/Earn

If I did not use a promo link do I get the 1000 FF points?

That's what I'm thinking.

Is anyone using this facility to pay their bills? I got an email today from Australia Post reminding me that I can earn 50 VFF pts by paying partnered bills of $50 or more. I usually use Paypal through Postbillpay for utility bills. Can this method be used in conjunction with VFF "MyPOST" to get the additional 50 VFF points?

Some of our AFF (QCC) colleagues are having problems using QCC at Aust Post for bpay.

Any one game enough to try VGW at Aust Post for bpay?

QCC Yeah I EFTPOS and self service kiosk no dice

Looking into this this way my post?

Same here - won't be using it again

Just received an "exclusive" offer via e-mail.....

Dear Mr 2905,

Through our partnership with Australia Post, you can earn Points with MyPost Digital Mailbox. It’s a secure way to receive and pay bills and store important documents online. Every time you pay a bill using the digital mailbox to the value of $50 or more you will be rewarded with 50 Points^.

Plus, until 16 May 2015, we’re exclusively offering Velocity members who connect to a provider 1,500 bonus Points*.

Terms and Conditions

*To earn 1,500 bonus Velocity Points New users must sign up for a MyPost Digital Mailbox service, enter your Velocity membership number & connect to a bill provider between 16 April and 16 May 2015 inclusive. Existing users need to connect to a provider within the promotional period. To be eligible to earn Velocity Points, you must enter your Velocity membership number and your First and Last Name must match the information in your Velocity Account. Velocity Points will be allocated to your Velocity Account within 10 days from transaction date. Only one allocation of 1,500 bonus Velocity Points will be earned for a connection. Multiple connections will not attract more bonus Points.
​

The list of available providers doesn't seem to have changed much since this thread started, ie; it's still cough.

The only provider on the list that I actually have an account with is Telstra, but I don't want to risk it being stuffed up for 1500 points. Instead, I've "connected" to the DJ's catalogue. Wait and see if it qualifies, I guess....

Not that exclusive, 4 accounts in my family got this! Will look to leverage this, you can always remove that linkage once you have received the points.

I got this email this morning as well...in any case I already signed up last year for the 1000 sign up bonus x 4 and I notice the T&C above say new sign ups

"Existing users need to connect to a provider within the promotional period."

Both are eligible, theres just some additional fluff there for those who happen to be new users

That is quicker than you would expect, I only set this up (4 family accounts) yesterday so maybe few more days for me.

For those of you who don't have any bills with any of the providers supported by MyPost - you can still earn the one-off 1,500 point bonus by subscribing to David Jones catalogues inside MyPost, no accounts or anything necessary whatsoever. I added it yesterday and the points came through overnight.

 

[andye]

New users and need new email addresses

I connected with DJ on 19 April and nothing has hit my VA account yet.

So if you're not yet a user Im guessing you only get the 1 x lot of 1500 point whether you just sign up, or sign-up and add a biller?
