I was about to signup for the Medibank offer before it expires tomorrow: Pack your bags with up to 150,000 Velocity Points | Join Medibank today | Medibank

On the join form after entering velocity number, the T&C's that show up present a much poorer offer than the one described by the landing page, eg. no mention of the 6 weeks free, and the pts table is reduced by 10-20k per tier:

Points offered for different levels of weekly premiums are below: Weekly premium < $49 = 12,000 Velocity Points Weekly premium $50 - $69 = 20,000 Velocity Points Weekly premium $70 - $89 = 30,000 Velocity Points Weekly premium $90 - $109 = 40,000 Velocity Points Weekly premium $110 - $129 = 50,000 Velocity Points Weekly premium $130 - $159 = 60,000 Velocity Points Weekly premium $160+ = 80,000

Did anyone take up this offer?

More trouble than its worth perhaps?

Screenshot everything and I reckon you'd be solid to get the landing page offer if you meet the many T&Cs on that page.

It's a pretty good deal (?), relative to a spend you have to make anyway, given the 6 weeks free can be included in the 90 days you need to hold the policy.

150k VFF for approx 7 weeks x $170+ minus your current premiums.
 
so it looks like the landing page now matches what I was seeing on the signup form (albeit with a 10k cut from the top tier)

im guessing some intern pushed the latest T&C's onto the signup form a little too eagerly

probably for the best... their customer service was not great & most places typically roll out the red carpet if you've indicated you want to sign up. if that was their white glove service, id hate to see what they're like after you've actually joined
