Woolworths Everyday Rewards change after customers fume over benefit loss: 'Double'
Woolworths has announced a big move that will be music to the ears of electric vehicle (EV) drivers with an Everyday Rewards membership. You'll now be able to score rewards points if you charge your EV through the Chargefox network. There are thousands of these chargers dotted around the country, but more than 100 of them are located at 25 Woolworths supermarkets. If you decide to fill up here, you will be be able to double the opportunity to collect points at the checkout and at your car. "We are thrilled to be working with Woolworths to offer Everyday Rewards points,' Ed Asuncion, Chargefox's executive general manager, said. Woolworths confirms double hit for shoppers in Everyday Rewards points change Common $358 a day expense the ATO lets you claim on tax without receipts Aussies given fresh $100 energy bill rebate in $50 million cost-of-living promise "Woolworths EV chargers have already proven to be very popular, with thousands of drivers using them every month.' You'll be able to take advantage of this upgrade in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. Chargefox and Woolworths hope to add more charging stations in the future. The charging network was first formed in 2017 and currently has more than 2,220 public chargers available across the country, with 5,000 people charging their EVs every you have to do is add your Everyday Rewards details to a Chargefox profile. For every $1 spent on charging at a Woolworths Chargefox station, you'll get one Everyday Rewards point. A spokesperson for the loyalty program said the offer comes as thousands of Aussies jump on the EV bandwagon. 'We're always looking for new ways to offer our members more value across all their everyday needs," they said. 'With around 300,000 EVs on the roads in Australia, this partnership offers members the perfect opportunity to collect points as they charge their car whilst doing their weekly shop.' The electrifying update for Everyday Rewards subscribers comes after the loyalty program copped a double whammy of bad news recently. Woolworths quietly revealed last month it would be rolling back benefits for customers signed up to its subscription services Delivery Unlimited and Everyday Extra services. Delivery Unlimited won't offer double Everyday Rewards points for subscribers from June 1. The $15 a month or $119 a year subscription gave shoppers access to free delivery on same day or next day orders of $75 or more. A Woolworths spokesperson told Yahoo Finance its service continued to be 'very popular' with customers and asserted it 'provides great value and convenience to customers'. The supermarket also revealed it would no longer offer a monthly 10 per cent off BIG W discount for Everyday Extra subscribers from June 1 as well. An Everyday Rewards spokesperson told Yahoo Finance the change was being made so it could 'continue to keep prices low for every shop at BIG W'. Subscribers will instead get monthly deals at Big W, starting from next month.

Coles offers new $150 discount on rewards scheme after Woolworths slashes benefits: 'Free delivery'
Coles shoppers can get up to $150 off their grocery shops, free delivery and bonus Flybuys points thanks to a "first" by the supermarket giant. Woolworths has been reeling back its benefits for customers signed up to its subscription services, causing some customers to abandon the services, and it seems like rival Coles has taken notice. Coles is offering three months of free membership for its Coles Plus and Coles Plus Saver subscription schemes. The offer is available to new subscribers and is running now until May 20, with customers able to sign up for both schemes for free. A Coles spokesperson told Yahoo Finance that its delivery subscription Coles Plus also provided customers with a standard one-month free trial, meaning customers signing up this week could get four months free. RELATED $6 million cost Coles and Woolworths pay that Aldi refuses to cave on Centrelink issues urgent Age Pension eligibility change warning: 'Double check' Dad with no savings reveals surprising money message for struggling Aussies: 'Living pay to pay' 'This is a unique opportunity for new members to get immediate value and experience the benefits our Coles Plus and Coles Plus Saver subscriptions, enabling customers to save up to $97 in monthly fees in addition to bonus Flybuys points and 10 per cent off one shop every month, up to $50 each time,' the spokesperson said. Coles Plus gives you unlimited free delivery on orders over $50, double Flybuys points, and free rapid Click & Collect. It is usually $19 per month. Coles Plus Saver gives you 10 per cent off on shop every month, up to $50 off, double Flybuys points, and member-only deals. It is usually $7 per comes as Coles reported in April that online sales had increased 25.7 per cent over the three months to $1.1 billion for the quarter. This represented more than 11 per cent of the company's overall sales. Shoppers can sign up for three months of free Coles Plus with the code PLUSFREE, and three months of free Coles Plus Saver with the code SAVERFREE. Customers must link their Flybuys number to join. Coles' move comes after rival Woolworths announced it would be removing popular benefits of its Delivery Unlimited and Everyday Extra services. Delivery Unlimited, which is similar to Coles Plus, will no longer offer double Everyday Rewards points for subscriptions from June 1. The $15 a month or $119 a year subscription gives shoppers access to free delivery on same day or next day orders of $75 or more. Everyday Extra, which is the equivalent to Coles Plus Saver, will no longer offer its popular monthly 10 per cent off BIG W discount from June 1. It will continue to offer 10 per cent off one Woolies shop a month and double rewards points on Woolies and BIG W shops. The moves didn't go down well with subscribers, with some threatening to cancel their subscriptions or not renew. 'This is very quickly becoming not worth the money,' one said. 'I will be cancelling mine as of now. Not worth it to me anymore,' another added. Woolworths slashed the prices of nearly 400 grocery staples this week until 2026, with Coles following suit and discounting more than 680 items.

Woolies shoppers rage over new reward cut
Woolies cuts another saving policy for Everyday Rewards members. Picture: NewsWire / Monique Harmer Woolworths has axed a major saving point for Everyday Rewards members, the second within a fortnight. Delivery Unlimited customers will no longer receive double rewards points to their Everyday Rewards accounts from June 1. Delivery Unlimited is a $15 a month subscription which gave customers free delivery on same day or next day orders of $75 or more. Shoppers were notified of the change via email, and took to social media to protest against the changes. 'I signed up for a 1 year subscription for every day rewards just to have then (sic) email me this plus remove the 10 per cent of Big W. What a joke … have emailed them back wanting a refund as they cannot keep up to their side of the deal,' a customer lamented online. Everyday Rewards members are facing a second discount cut within two weeks. Picture: NewsWire/ Gaye Gerard A Wooloworths spokesperson said Delivery Unlimited is still a great service for shoppers. 'Our Delivery Unlimited service continues to be very popular with customers and with an unlimited number of deliveries for $15 per month or $119 for an annual subscription, it provides great value and convenience to customers,' the spokesperson told NewsWire. 'We are streamlining Delivery Unlimited to focus on the primary benefit for subscribers which is providing timely and convenient delivery. Direct to Boot will also become a complimentary service for members. 'As such we are removing 2x Everyday Rewards points from the program. Instead customers will receive three months complimentary Direct To Boot Now which offers Direct To Boot pick up in less than 60 minutes. Direct To Boot Now normally costs $5 per order. 'We believe Delivery Unlimited still provides compelling benefits to subscribers. However if anyone would like to cancel their subscription they can do so by contacting our customer service team.' Woolworths defended the decision and said great offers are still provided by their rewards programs. Picture: NewsWire/ Gaye Gerard This comes after Woolworths rewards shoppers threatened to cancel their memberships after the major supermarket axed a Big W discount. From next month, Everyday Extra members will no longer be able to claim 10 per cent off their Big W purchases once per month. 'We're writing to let you know that, unfortunately, from Sunday June 1 2025, the BIG W monthly ten per cent off discount will no longer be part of the Everyday Extra benefits,' an email to customers said. 'Thanks for being an Everyday Extra subscriber and we hope you'll continue enjoying great value from your subscription.' Shoppers flocked to social media criticising the supermarket and threatening to cancel their subscriptions. Yeah, I've just cancelled my subscription. Second reduction in benefits in a year without reduction in cost/replacement of benefit,' a past customer lamented.
