Thank you!!!


Virgin Wines are annoying!

I like the cases they send out as they have some good bottles in there with a little brochure where you can write your own notes on the wine which I do from time to time

However, they call and call and call and call you every month for about 2 weeks straight

I have blocked their number on my phone so it goes straight through to Voicemail which has solved the problem

looks like a 3rd party arrangement. Underwhelming performance.

FWIW - Virgin Wines is run by Wine People.

Hopefully this means they're finally getting around to posting these points for everyone - nothing here yet.
Still, better than a brief flirtation with Virgin Wine: bought several cases between October and Christmas, 1000 point bonus on the first case, 3 Velocity points per $ and free delivery. Apparently.
No 3/$ purchase points, no 1000 bonus points, nothing, nada, zip. And charged delivery from the 2nd case on...free delivery only on the intro case. Apparently.
Missing points claim filed but future deliveries cancelled - looks like a 3rd party arrangement. Underwhelming performance.

Perhaps a discussion for a separate thread, but I gave up on them a couple Christmases ago, mainly because I got a great deal and that's all I was after. I still get the emails, and occasionally a phone call, but have always pointed out to them on the phone that 3 points per $ isn't going to cut it, I'm after bonus points.

Just confirming I used the 10% off code discussed earlier in this thread to purchase 2 cases, and had the 8,000 bonus points credited to me today. Given my experience over the past 6 months with the error message ridden epiqure website, it's probably a bit much to expect that they can identify / action cases where members have used both offers.

Kerching ....

I filed it under "wish I had known that 6 weeks ago" category, as I was not prepared to take the risk

Yes, as is The Australian Wine club-thingy - Wine People call centre folk maybe not always on the ball: "Oh you have 2 accounts - I'll cancel both for you!" :shock:
You're right sam004 - OT Sorry.

I also got my bonus points today. Thankfully that's one less thing to worry about.

32K points posted across two accounts today - that's on top of the 10k for joining SWMBO to ePiqure and ordering 4 cases ...

My Xmas plonk posted today.

If this is still current my sign up SWMBO and grab some more. I hear its a one off deal in your first year? Right?

Congrats, that's a nice haul for a future ASA!

You get 8000 points for ordering 4 cases in your first year, however the thread was about a promotion (now over) where every 24 bottles of wine in one transaction ordered, yielded 8000 points.

We're all waiting for that to come back!

A new member ordering four dozen would get a 10 K bonus, 2k for the first 12 and an additional 8k for the 48th bottle.

[puppysparkes]

A huge thank you to markis10 for creating the thread! Points posted. No doubt Epicure would say the same.

You're right, post now edited, was a bit asleep at the wheel!
