Coles FlexiFree Delivery Option

I'm looking to trial the Coles online delivery services but was wondering if anyone has thoughts on the FlexiFree delivery option? Is it guaranteed to delivery sometime in the 8 hr window - with some prior warning?

Alternatively is it worthwhile to take out a Coles credit card for the free delivery - if I'm planning to get deliveries weekly?

  • I've used the 8-hour afternoon/evening delivery window for several months (but always spend less than the $150 needed for free delivery). They send you an email in the morning with a 1-hour window (this may get delayed a bit later in the day). Then you get an SMS when the delivery is up to 30 minutes away.

  • On my most recent Coles CC Statement it said they're dropping the free delivery for having the card, instead awarding 1 point extra per dollar spent. I wouldn't go for the card just for the promise of free delivery, which is still being advertised.

    • Really? I have not seen that on my statement? Can you post a screenshot or something please? TIA

          WTF, why is it not on my statement!

          Maybe because I have Platinum version?

            @John Kimble: Financial Ombudsman, kgo!

            The card has had many of its conditions erode (and its annual fee increase) since I first got mine - the only saving grace is I have the old insurance on it, which makes it unbeatable for price protection claims.

            If that feature goes, or is "deprecated", I'll be in the market for a new daily transaction and big-ticket purchases card.

            • @holoz0r: Yeah, price protection has saved us a few hundred recently.

              I thought it did change for the worse when it moved to citibank?

          • @John Kimble: Information about the end date of this Special Promotion was included in statements sent to our customers in March 2019.

    • What? This is the only reason I have the Coles card with no annual fee so that I can get groceries delivered every week. Scumbags they are now!
