Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

Took quite some time for offers to come back down to reality. Think about 6-8 weeks.

My account spend $60 x 4 weeks for 10000 bonus points

Wife spend $50 x 4 weeks for 10000 bonus points

Should do us nicely through to Christmas and 4 week Thailand trip.
 
Coles back to their BS again with four weeks offer.
Just got email saying make sure you shop for week 2.
I have shopped 15/11 and 22/11.
Should be 2 weeks down, not one.

No. Check your dates.

Week 1 = 15/11 to 24/11
Week 2 = 25/11 to 1/12
Week 3 = 2/12 to 8/12
Week 4 = 9/12/ to 15/12

It's quite usual that the first week includes extra time and this is clearly stated.

Murphy has been programming the Flybuys offers for us.

Nothing for months and now all three accounts have 4x$50 for 10k and we’re away for two of the four weeks.
Careless of you!

We had a similar issue a while back but flew out on Monday afternoon (so did the 2x $50 shops for Wk 2 then) and, (as luck and reward seat Gods would have it) arrived back on the Sunday morning for the end of Wk 3.

Worst case - do you have a relative/friend you can owe a favour to...

This time, the offer finished the week after we left, so we called in a favour.

One week on one account, sure.

But it would have required two weeks and I’d want all three accounts. 🤣

FIL is a patient man, but not that patient.

Main factor is the nearest Coles is a bit far from the relatives.
 
Is anyone having problems getting into the Flybuys app - can't see any boosters or points balance for a couple of days and looks like they've updated the app

I pressed the update button in an email that notified me of the changes.
Initially it just took me to old style app then a couple of days later the screen changed.
Gussing you will need to press update app from the email.

I'm guessing you have the old app... so update it via your app store

The new app is DISGUSTING though :(
The two new red buttons down the bottom for collect and redeem!

The collect button doesn't go off even if you have opted in to all offers.
In the past you knew when something new was being offered as the red light light up.

The redeem button is staying on the whole time even though I have Velocity auto transfer set up and will never do (or have the points to) redeem anything from their site.
 
Since when do you need to activate fuel offers?? Got zero discount the other day, not impressed but not an argument i could have with the service station attendant
