Everyday Rewards Targeted Offers

If you are referring to the veg offer, it doesn't start until tomorrow anyway.
No the meat offer. I don't usually buy meat at Woolies so hadn't bothered to activate. Then spotted a couple of things on sale, and missed out on 350 points 🙁

I received the offer to spend $60 online and receive 4500 Woolies points. The order came to $64 but some of the items weren't in stock so they refunded me $10 and the total was brought below $60. I didn't receive any Woolworths points because of this. I only made the online order for the bonus points. Anybody had any similar experiences to this?

I would get on to customer support about this. It's not your fault that items were out of stock. You met the spend criteria otherwise.
 
I hacve. Spent 30 minutes on webchat the other day, but it got me nowhere.

Was thinking of lodging a transaction dispute with AMEX - that way I may get somebody capable from Woolies end who will fix the issue. Most customer service reps seem under-trained and fairly useless.

Happens all the time. You need to ensure the items will be in stock or order more than the minimum. Items are frequently not supplied in my experience.
 
when picking up the order, I spoke with the customer service manager and explained I only made the order for the offer. I even wrote that in the 'special instructions' field when placing it. She assured me that the points will still be given because as a customer, it isn't my fault if items aren't in stock. They could have cancelled the entire order and refunded the amount, There is nothing in the T & C about this situation, hence why a chargeback may be necessary.

Out of interest Dr Ralph, how do you ensure that items are in stock when placing the order?

Is there a way?

When I selected click and collect, the website showed me what was in stock and what wasn't for that particular store I was going to collect from.

I only selected in stock items for that store and where I was in doubt (particular eggs type) I marked substitution permitted. I got everything I ordered and all the points, two weeks running.
 
there wasn't that option!

first time and last time doing groceries online

even when they offer 4500 points for trying it!

Happened several times even on orders that show all items in stock, because the store that fullfills the order may sell out of the items by the time the order is fullfilled. Web chat with a rewards team has always resolved that for me and points were manually credited.
 
Just because its in stock when you order doesn't mean it'll be in stock when they pack your order. Anyone could have bought those items off the shelf by then.

Substitutions are the only way I know of to avoid having your spend reduced. If you dont want the sub then they can refund you in person but in my experience they dont scan your WR card so you dont lose your points.
