I'm platinum member, done enough gym so no need to pay for gym next quarter (Aug - Oct). If the new system begins from Nov, do I need to go to the gym next quarter?:D

I dont think so. You will prolly still pay for it though depending on whether your gym is in or outside M25 and which gym you are registered with.

My calculator said I don't have to pay for it after Nov 1st. I also checked with Pru. My Cannons is outside M25.

how long does it take for sainsburys vitality points to show on your statement? Sure i have registered the card twice in the last month and had no points come thru yet... :idea:

I have planned all the point we need to get to platinum by Nov and its touch and go atm!

I find the sainsbury points quite random. I buy fruit & veg each shopping trip but have only had points 5 times for buying them.

The ebay one is equally hit & miss, went on a gym wear buying mission last month and it all tracked but trainers & sportbra didn't a while back.

Hi all,

I have taking out the pruhealth insurance two weeks ago, was going to take advantage of the £15 a month gym membership, now I hear the prices are going up from Nov!!

If I join now I pay £40 x 3months then whatever my vitality points status is Bronze, etc.

Realistically over the next three months what do i need to do to get to platinum status?

Is it do-able?

Are there any other options?


Thanks in advance
Jig:)

I think it is do-able in 6 months. (Make sure you do your fitness test now!)

What have you already done? There's so many to list, so if you could list what you have done and are doing, then we can add our advice;)

I am having yet another pru issue - have faxed over my fitness results 3 times now and each time they say it has not been received. The first 2 times the gym did it directly so I thought just incase they hadn't I would do it the 3rd time myself but still unreceived. I am at my wits end because my year comes to an end on the 1st of August and I need to get to Gold so I can get a bit more off my premium - do you think this is the reason they are 'not receiving' it?!

Why not post a copy as well? Photocopy ofcourse:o
If you are desparate, why not book a test at another gym?
