Until the beginning of 2009 the minimum premium needed for Discovery Life clients to have Vitality attached was R200 per month and Vitality R105 per month. In total the premium was R305!
This minimum premium rule has changed with effect of March 2009!
The minimum premium is now R350 and Vitality has remained unchanged at R105, therefore the total premium is R455!
The main reason why this change took place was because of the Pick n Pay HealthyFood Benefit. Clients on Vitality, that have this benefit, are saving hundred of Rands per month. This means that because of the huge savings Discovery Life increased the minimum rules.
But it is not bad news! Most Vitality members that are using Pick n Pay HealthyFood are saving about R500 a month. That means you can get this benefit for almost "free".
For R455 per month you get:
- Life insurance
- Lifetime gym membership at Virgin Active or Planet Fitness for R850 once-off payments
- All the Vitality benefits
- Savings at Pick n Pay
