Does it take them long to assign you a “status”?
You complete a questionnaire, takes about 10 mins. The detail stuff about blood pressure, sugar levels etc you can answer ‘dont know’. They ask about height, weight, exercise levels, stress, and whether you are happy as you are. Then give you a bronze rating to start and some targets. All very simple really.
Then download the Moves app onto your phone, sync with Vitality and its all done for you. I find the app quite handy just tracking how embarrassingly few steps I do each day, its definitely made me think and I get out walking most lunchtimes and evenings now at least to just move a bit.
Edit – most of the discounts you get staright away, but you can get extra/bigger discounts on some things with silver/gold etc.
I have the wjole family covered, the free cinema tickets for all of us each week is quite handy, especially over the winter!
