Saw this terrific offer from NRMA Parks & Resorts over the weekend. I have the Discovery membership but noticed this one has lots of savings as well. Depends if you go to these Parks to use the accommodation discount, but still seems worth it to use it free for a year (normally $60) and get the 15c/l off fuel discount, plus other discounts. Can’t see an end date. but says hurry, offer valid for a limited time only.

    Cheers. Signed up predominantly because it's free, but I do like the NRMA park in Merimbula, so may come in handy.

    Question 15 cents off a litre"next time you fuel up". It seems to be just a one off offer as their membership Page only stipulates 5 cents off at ampol

      If you look at the offer page, it confirms this is a once-off offer:

    Thanks OP, Ampol discount is handy, think it might stack with Woolworths fuel voucher + 4% discounted Ampol gift cards as well.

    • bfg100k on 13/04/2023 - 11:51

      Does not stack with woolies fuel discount. Note this appears to be a system constraint - only one discount applies.

      • WookieMonster on 13/04/2023 - 11:54

        I thought the POS system would let you stack the myNRMA fuel discount with the Woolworths fuel voucher, but you would need to find a staff member willing to let you stack the two offers (and that is not easy in my experience). It is against the terms of the myNRMA fuel discount to stack it with another fuel discount offer, so staff are well within their right to refuse to let you stack. Or was there a recent change to the POS system to block stacking of one Ampol partner discount (e.g. myNRMA, myHyundai, myToyota) with one Woolworths fuel voucher?

        I know you cannot stack two Ampol partner discounts, because the Ampol POS system will automatically remove one of the discounts.

        • bfg100k on 13/04/2023 - 11:57

          Yep I tried a number of different stations before finding an attendant who would let me scan both codes. My happiness was short lived when I checked the receipt to find only 1 discount being applied. Confirmed with the woolies app that the fuel voucher wasn’t redeemed

          • WookieMonster on 13/04/2023 - 12:05
            +1

            @bfg100k: Damn, sounds like a recent change! Thanks for the intel, I’ll update the fuel discounts wiki to reflect that.

            Btw, I do not know whether Ampol service stations on mainland Australia (at least the ones not operated by EG) actually deduct a fuel discount voucher when you present your Everyday Rewards card to claim the Woolworths fuel discount. I know at TAS Ampol service stations accepting the Woolworths fuel discount, you can claim a 6c/L discount simply by showing your Everyday Rewards card.

            • If there is no fuel discount on your card, you still get the discount.
            • If there is a fuel discount on your card, it will not actually be redeemed.
            • abr83 on 13/04/2023 - 14:47

              @WookieMonster: Ampol Retail Pty Ltd stations on the mainland that do redeem Woolworths 4c EDR vouchers will 'redeem' on their Woolworths EDR account.

              For those grabbing printed receipts, it generally prints out "Your next fuel discount will expire on x/x/2023" above the "Woolworths (Everyday) Rewards Card accepted", and redeems/removes a Fuel Discount from the count on the EDR app when used at a participating Ampol Foodary or Ampol Woolworths MetroGo on the mainland.

              There is also the 'offline' account redemption (i.e. will accept but will not redeem from the EDR account) if the network link between the Ampol POS systems and the Woolworths EDR systems is down.

              • WookieMonster on 13/04/2023 - 16:29

                @abr83: Aha, that’s good to know!

                I suspect the way in which Ampol Retail Pty Ltd stations in TAS currently handle the redemption of the Woolworths fuel discount is actually a hangover from the original implementation of the Woolworths fuel discount for EDR in TAS, because it was implemented in 2016, well before EDR was rolled out in TAS in late 2020. I suspect no one at Ampol has got around to changing this, because TAS Ampol (and TAS EG Ampol) is still excluded from EDR, so it is probably easier to give out fuel discounts for free than work out how to redeem fuel discounts from EDR accounts without giving out EDR points.

                TAS Ampol receipts do not say anything on the bottom:

                "Your next fuel discount will expire on x/x/2023" above the "Woolworths (Everyday) Rewards Card accepted"

                … but the discount still appears on the receipt as a Woolworths fuel discount.

          • rekke on 13/04/2023 - 12:28

            @bfg100k: I heard people stacking the RACV discount with Woolworths voucher + in store purchase discount to get a cumulative discount of 14%. This could then be further stacked with a 3% discounted EG Ampol voucher from a partner such as Student Edge. So do they allow it stack with Woolworths fuel voucher for the RACV discount but not the NRMA Blue discount?

            • WookieMonster on 13/04/2023 - 13:12
              +1

              @rekke: You are referring to EG Ampol. EG Ampol is an Ampol franchisee, so it has its own set of fuel discounts (and rules on how you can redeem them).

              • The RACV discount is exclusive to EG Ampol.

              • The Woolworths fuel discount is available at all EG Ampol service stations and around 200 Ampol Foodary / Ampol Woolworths MetroGo service stations.

              • The instore purchase discount is available at EG Ampol (and maybe other Ampol franchisees), but I am not aware of any instore purchase discounts at Ampol Foodary / Ampol Woolworths MetroGo.

              • The 3% discounted EG Ampol gift card is only redeemable at EG Ampol.1

              • If you are paying instore at EG Ampol, you can stack one Woolworths fuel voucher with one EG Club / Partner Discount (e.g. RACV, Origin Energy) and the instore spend discount offer and you can then pay for your transaction using gift cards (e.g. WISH gift cards, EG Ampol gift cards, AmpolCash physical gift cards).

              The discussion above about the myNRMA discount is actually in relation to discount offers at Ampol Foodary / Ampol Woolworths MetroGo. These locations are operated by Ampol themselves (i.e. they are not franchise locations), so they have different rules on redemptions when compared with EG Ampol and its fuel discounts.

              If you want to read up on all the different discount offers at Ampol Foodary / Ampol Woolworths MetroGo, EG Ampol, and other Ampol franchisees, have a look at the fuel discounts wiki.

              1. Btw, it may make more sense to use discounted AmpolCash physical gift cards as a payment method at EG Ampol instead of EG Ampol gift cards, as they are currently being sold at 5% off at participating Ampol locations. ↩

      Like, the only reason companies give out free membership periods is in hopes that you'll renew.

      If they start contacting you to renew, ask them to remove your contact info and cease all communications.

    • WookieMonster on 13/04/2023 - 12:12
      +3

      After looking at the full terms and conditions of this offer, I am not so sure:

      The bonus fuel offer is a 15 cent per litre discount which applies to Premium fuels and includes Amplify Premium Unleaded 98, Amplify Premium Unleaded 95, Amplify Premium Diesel; and 15 cents per litre on Regular fuels and includes Unleaded, E10 and Diesel.

      I think this part of the terms and conditions is actually a typo, because it seems like no one proof-read the terms and conditions. The next part of the terms and conditions state:

      The bonus fuel offer:

      a) is only available at participating Ampol locations. For participating locations, visit mynrma.com.au/Ampol;

      b) is not available at Ampol service stations;

          The myNRMA discount is an Ampol partner discount, and the person in the linked comment reported that scanning both an Ampol partner discount and a Woolworths fuel discount in the same transaction will see one of the discounts automatically removed by the checkout.

          • unity1 on 24/04/2023 - 18:34

              @unity1: I think what would happen is that if you have the Everyday Rewards card scanned first and then presented this Ampol partner discount, assuming the attendant lets you scan both, this Ampol partner discount should override the Woolworths fuel discount, because it is of higher value than the Woolworths fuel discount. However, I am not sure whether this is how Ampol has actually programmed their systems, because I have never been able to get an Ampol attendant to let me use both the Woolworths fuel discount and an Ampol partner discount.

              Alternatively, if you have an Everyday Rewards card with no fuel voucher on it, you can claim Everyday Rewards points and then the Ampol partner discount at Ampol service stations on mainland Australia accepting both.

              The problem is that you may have some Ampol attendants force you to choose between either Everyday Rewards points and Ampol partner discounts, even though this internal Ampol memo from this Ampol employee says that you can use both.

                  2. You still get Everyday reward points
                  3. You won't lose your EDR 4cpl discount if using the NRMA code.
                  As ever, YMMV

    Does anyone know where to find the 15c/litre promo in the app once you're logged in with a new account? 🤔

      When it arrives it will be in notifications, or very likely also on the front page.

    Can't log into the app via mobile or member number/postcode. Also tried the website with email (forgot password) and member details. Anyone else?

      Me too. I was told to wait for couple of hours and try again as it may take some time for new accounts to be activated.

    Had it for an year and never used a single offer. Useless.

      I've also been using it for a year (sadly not free), and have saved money on car rentals, SkyBus tickets and insurance

    Signed up last year and never used it… But it's free.
