Pruhealth scrapping its free/discounted gym loophole in November. Discussion

nell_wen

I've just signed up with pruhealth- possibly not the best timing in the world, but have been getting bored with my very small gym...

I've been reading through the messages on this thread which have been really helpful in getting started with vitality points, etc. However, I am really stuck trying to find the non smokers declaration on the website. Please could someone let me know where I can find it? Thanks!

The new look site is active now. Eurostar, Cineworld are on their as rewards. Plus you can get 100points extra by completing a review.

Under what heading do these points show up in the vitalities statement. Would some one have an idea. It is Godsend for me - needing 10 points more (after all calculations) to reach plats!

Also do they give these 100 points for those who have completed their review as well under the previous website structure?

If you do a "vitality review" it's the same as a "personal health review" and you can only do one. If you've done one already since renewal, then it won't count

Better to sign up now than in november! I believe you only pay £25/month now for gym, but it could be much higher for people who join in November

The booking eurostar saga continues.. having got it booked with eurostar you have log onto the website to pay... but the website isn't working properly at the moment so just had to ring pruhealth... more confusion, my payment had to be passed onto another team to be taken, whom I didn't speak to. So hopefully it'll get done. I'll believe it all when I see the tickets rather than just another reference number.

Has anyone else been having hideous problems with the website?

The vitality review thing is sneaky... I thought it was a different thing too from the health review, there was me thinking, yay, 100 more points! harbinger13, have you tried reading some articles? I think you can get up to 30 points per month for reading about why you shouldn't eat salt etc etc. :rolleyes:

I'm finding the new website a nightmare too... Immensely slow and unreliable, even on super-speed work connection.

If anyone else is finding their fitbug points aren't tracking, I've been told that there is a 'technical problem' and provided you upload to fitbug the points should transfer (eventually). I'm just hoping that this, and the glitch that prevents me getting points from eBay are fixed before my renewal is due in October...

They just gave me some fitbug points from last week, but not the week before!

Hi there,
Just been reading all of the helpful posts, I've been doing some calculations which would be for me and my OH, does the following look like we might hit 3000 come November?

Education: 400 (individual), 800 (family)
Personal health review = 200
Stress Zone Assessment = 100
Read 3 self help articles/ mth x 2 = 120

Exercise: 1500 (individual), 3000 (family)
Fitness assessment at gym x 2 = 600
Gym workout x 30/ mth x 2 = 600
Fitbug, 12500 steps x 36 days = 360

General: 50 (individual), 100 (family)
Pru log on x 2 = 100

Nutrition: 1000 (individual), 2000 (family)
Create healthy meal plan = 100

Screening: 1200 (individual), 2400 (family)
Eyes Tested (mine needs checking!) = 150
Basic Health Screen x 2f = 400

No Smoking: 200 (individual), 400 (family)
Declare not smoking x 2 = 300

TOTAL = 3030

DON’T DELAY IF YOU WANT STILL WANT CHEAP GYM MEMBERSHIP!!!
If you’re keen in joining a GYM then Pruhealth it’s still the BEST option. Even better through Boots Health Insurance I recon (Boots Health Insurance is still Pruhealth insurance – same premium prices – Free Health Screen & Eye test with Boots).

I have been reading the forum of some time now and just been lazy at calculating the benefits.

I DEVISED A SIMPLE CLEAR PLAN FOR ALL NEWBIES INCLUDING MYSELF.

The target is to reach PLATNIUM by Nov/Dec hopefully…
I intend to join the Pruhealth through Boots on the 1st Sep 2008.

Just to make it easier (I have talked my Brother into Joining… So my overall TRAGET is to get 3000 points ;-)…
