    This sounds absolutely fantastic and I'm sure it is (for you).
    But I don't think that people should be under the impression that this is automatic for most people.
    For most people it would be quite an effort to get this many points.
    I have spent quite a while looking into it and with no gyms near me I would find it very difficult.
    Perhaps in your case, the things you need to do fit in with your routine and hence it's a fantastic deal for you, but for many people it's going to be more effort.

    If in doubt, don't take my word for it, but read the other thread(s) on it by putting pruhealth gym into the search box.

    I'm not trying to be negative at all.
    I think it's a fantastic deal.
    I'm just saying that if people are joining up on the bases of expecting to get certain benefits then they should be aware of what is involved.

    Ok obviously everyones entitled to their own opinion and whilst i find it's fairly easy i have to respect the fact that you do not think it is.

    I'd suggest you ask actual Pruhealth members of this thread http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/...493150&page=61 for a balanced view and see what they say. I'd expect the feedback to be mixed but with more saying easier than harder to get to platium in 12 months.

    Its possible for a couple/family to get to platinum in three months if you really go for it and in 1 or two months if you have a chronic condition i.e. athsma diabetes etc without even joining a gym or using a fitbug. :beer:

    Again i totally respect your opinion even though i do not agree with it and i believe you when you say you found it hard. If you want i could put a route to platinum together for you? As long as your minds not already 100% made up with no room to reconsider. You may find it helpful and may see things differently? :j If your a willing guinea pig we could test it out? :D

    What isnt mentioned is that PruHealth clearly cut back on staff costs...all based in South Africa and awful at the best of times...

    Hi PMISpecialist,

    I will PM you in the hope that you can give me some help with it.
    Maybe there is something I'm missing.

    Thanks a lot for your help. I appreciate it.

    However I still think people shoudl check the strings attached with anything like this, even if it does prove to be easier than I thought in this particualr case.
