Flybuys Targeted Bonus Promotions

What do most people do when they do a click and collect for $50.25 for a $50 spend (for a four week bonus) and then they don't have something so the invoice is less than $50. I just used the chat function and it was painfully slow
Only happened to us twice and that was few years ago. Resolved easily on the phone.
I called in whatever the FBs number is.
I dread chat boys, I've lost a couple monitors using them, ha.

I wait till the end of the 4 weeks and then call. Tell them it was an online order and that's all they need to bonus points you up.
 
hahaha. As soon as I am asked what I want I type "Human".
even though I got a human they just take forever and you have to give them so much info that if I gave them an order number surely they would have

Interesting I thought they might cancel if I didn't do it in the week I missed. Thanks

Thanks - missed week 1 of my 4x$90 due to a case of beer out of stock but looks like I'll do weeks 2 and 3, so if I also do week 4, I'll give them a bell.
 
Anyone understand the latest promo? I dont understand how this is any real change to points pooling option currently? Other than possibly some weird/funky offers coming up as per item 3?

Save your points to help towards your in-store Christmas shops​

at Coles and collect double points.

How it works:

1. Activate
Activate this offer by Sun 14 Sep 2025 to join Collect for Christmas1 and collect double points on every Coles shop until Sun 14 Sep 2025 when you scan your Flybuys.2

2. Save your points
We'll switch off your Coles "redeem 2,000 points for an instant $10 off" prompt* until Thu 25 Dec 2025 so you can focus on your points savings goal.

3. Stocking up on points
Between Tue 2 Sep and Tue 9 Dec 2025, you'll receive special Coles offers to help accelerate your points balance. Don't forget to activate these offers, shop and scan your Flybuys.

4. Spend your points in-store
From Wed 10 Dec until Wed 24 Dec 2025, when you scan your Flybuys in-store at the Coles checkout, you can choose to accept the prompt to redeem your points and put them towards your Christmas feast. Or you can choose not to redeem your points and hang on to them and use them as you like – it's up to you!

Points can be redeemed in multiples of 2,000 points only. Every 2,000 points equates to $10 off your shop. Minimum spend $10, minimum points balance 2,000 points. You will be asked if you wish to redeem your available Flybuys points balance to the highest increment of 2,000 points. Maximum of up to $400 off shop per transaction applies and is dependent on points balance. If you activate to join the Promotion you won't be able to redeem 2,000 points for an Instant $10 off at Coles during the Promotion, however all other Flybuys redemption options are available and you can still convert your points to Flybuys Dollars3 to spend in-store at selected Flybuys partners. Alternatively, Coles Pay4 customers can redeem Flybuys points for money off their shop online at Coles with Coles Pay.

Nope but I signed up because I'm not getting any worthwhile offers outside of the 4 wk/10k ones and item 3 threatens to change that. Not holding my breath.
 
Got a 10 x points on next shop offer
Perhaps because I didn't participate in the latest 4 week offer

Double points for something I am already doing, although they will turn the $10 redemption prompt at the checkout back on in December. Which I will promptly turn off again.
