I'm utterly useless, so having you explain this stuff is so helpful.Genuinely-thank you. I know so many people are so savvy and on the ball,it's just knowing how and remembering to use these things. A worthwhile vlog, I love that you always take the time to explain how things work and share.
This vlog has been the most helpful with regards to the virgin miles 🥰 I have also never thought of using a flat head screwdriver to get weeds out of slabs I am totally doing this now. Another great vlog guys 🥰🏴
Thank you guys, I always wondered how to go about collecting air miles, now with your kind info I can start collecting.
What a great vlog guys! Just perfect, we have spent the last few hours signing up transferring points and getting credit cards lol, thank you so much this was very useful! The plants you have are called euphorbia plants they are lovely 😊 look forward to my notification when you pop in my you tube box! 2 of my favourite guys on you tube 👍🏻
Oh that a good idea paint the grate, we have one in our garden but didn't know if we were allowed to paint with it been a council sewage grate, but if we can i would paint it to go with my garden gravel stones
This was GREAT information! More importantly, you did an outstanding job explaining everything! Can’t wait to start earning, and planning my next trip.
There is a weed wire brush that you can clean patio with easier than screwdriver thanks Lodge guys love to watch your vlogs x x
Great vlog, been looking into doing this so this has been a great help, thank you!
Thanks for another great vlog and the information given regarding miles. Really helpful and will help us a great deal in getting us back to Disney. Xx
I didn’t know about most of this,im definitely going to do the cards now and start collecting points.thanks for the info.hope you are both well 👍
Very informative, thank you for sharing
Wow guys, this was a very informative vlog. You both have such great enthusiasm for building points to get to your favourite destinations. It was amazing to see how you did this, and thank you very much for delivering this information to your subscribers. X
Brilliant vlog. Thanks so much for all the info about Virgin points. Were due to go in September so I'm definitely going to check it out! Cheers guys!
Super helpful information. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience and tips 👍
Thanks for the flight tips on points very useful.
Thanks guys! My Virgin card arrived this morning so this was great for tips on how to maximise it! 😀
That’s a great way of explaining for people! What cruise line are you sailing? Taking the family on our first cruise sailing on Royal Caribbean Oasis of the Seas at the end of the summer!
Greta video guy’s, love your content. Keep up the great work 🥰
Great vlog . Thanks for all the info 😀
You guys seem to have a beautiful life, good on ya, wish my life was like yours, I can dream x
Hi Nick and Lee,good video again. We were interested in the air miles part, and listened very very carefully to it, I don't think I get it fully for now and will probably need to watch it again. Loads of information to digest. I do like these type of videos with tips, etc. Anyway thanks and take care.
Martin and Jennifer.
it's a mine field but worth looking into it it pays for us to go free
Absolutely in love with your lodge so much so I am obsessed 😍 I am now looking to buy my own but want the same layout as yours but can’t find that sort on any of the for sale sites 😢 please can you tell what make and model I should be looking for pretty please 🥺
Your garden furniture, how you keep them so clean without putting covers on them, we had to cover ours as with rain etc they started going green & mossy so we cleaned then up & just cover them now
Been excited for this one
That was a brilliant VLOG. So informative. Thanks guys xxx
Glad you found it helpful
Love your videos just got recommended to watch you by my auntie who’s just started to watch your videos
Thanks for watching. We appreciate it
Wow, information overload in the best possible way😃 you two are on it with the air miles situ, hats off what a dream team, it's so great how you work it, an absolute gredit to you and so informative and thanks so much , could see how hard you worked putting that together in telling us. Fair play👍
Had no idea I could claim miles from our flights in April, thank you!
Just wondering how do you use your points for an upgrade? Can you do that at the airport?
Good tips as I use a clarity card which has no fees using aboard. How do you save money on car hire and accommodation when in Florida?
Those cruise to france & Spain, find out if you can take mobility scooters on this cruise, & any excursions allow mobility scooters
Great information. Good bargin on the cruise as well. What would you say are the best sites for finding a cruise deal x
Love this vlog guys. Thank you.
We collect avios, but live in the northeast and get what you say about living in the north.
Can I ask how you look for seats that can be used on the plane? Do virgin allocate so many per flight that need booking way in advance? We have the girls so need to book during school holidays, which can make it a little more difficult.
yes they allocate seats as reward seats take a look at seat spy that's a good free site to check for seats
Thank you this is was great info.
One question is when is the best time to get reward flights? We have several points and can’t ever manage to find flights as we’re confined to school holidays 😩Is there a date and time of day they’re released?
Thank you
This is so helpful!!!! Thank you for explaining, I think that's so kind to share it saving everyone so much money. Thank you guys. I just wondered can you use points towards/ for car hire or is it only flights only? Thank you xx
you can use virgin red to spend your points but the exchange value isn't very good
Looking forward to this vlog!
Lots of helpful info, thank you! Is there a reason why you have the basic Virgin rewards card? Or do you purchase everything on the Rewards Plus card?
Thanks for this guys I didn’t know about this thoroughly very helpful x
Glad you found it helpful
Do you guys ever boost your points when flying? Thanks for the video you explain it so well!
no we have enough points without needing to boost them
I tend to use our Virgin points for upgrades as the point flights are not on all flights so can be difficult to get if you don't have flexibility of dates. Have you thought of getting a US bank account which makes it easier over there, I transfer money to it when the exchange rate is good.
Great vlog, its got our family looking at air miles now. One thing we noticed, the new tesco clubcard offer for virgin 2500points requires a first autoexchange of £1.50 in clubcard vouchers, so you need to spend £150 on that new clubcard before 8th July.
Thanks for the video it’s opened my eyes to what’s possible can you do a video on the websites you use to find deals such as the cruise thanks again
Thankyou for this vlog so helpful , just started to link up to the Virgin card Tesco card done
Great effort thanks for all the info. Just one thing when using the curve card. Aren’t you always better using the euro/dollar etc rate instead of converting to pounds? I recently used my starling account in Barcelona and always got a better rate selecting to pay in euros
Because you both have the reward plus card can you link them both to the same virgin flying Club account or do you have to have separate accounts?
Great deal on the cruise. What company did you book it with?
Get red star cordyline you can get it also in a purplely /pink colour look lovely
You could get a pizza one that fits on top of a bbq
Love it, thanks guys 👏👏👏 Our very own Money Saving Experts 🙌💲
Loved this one but mind blown with the points going to watch it again lol
Use the old coffee on your plants. It's good for them 🪴
I have a Virgin flight account I have had it for a few years & never really thought much about it but after looking at your vlog I thought I would check if it's still open & valid .. I have 4500 points sitting in the account ! you explained this really well & I have just connected my tesco club card up to my Virgin miles account & am definitely looking at the Virgin credit card ..
Wish I knew about this card before. Flying from good old Donny 31st July to Orlando with tui premium. The crumb mix on the cauliflower ,was the packet from Tesco? thinking of doing same but with chicken.And one more thing tried to book restraunt. Space 2020 found it impossible always booked up.
Great video and very informative. I’ve applied for a credit card but when looking into the Curve card it wanted £4.99 per month. Must have misunderstood as I thought it was free?
This is a great vlog! I never thought about this sort of stuff before and with prices going up so much, ever penny counts now, thanks for this it will be so helpful for everyone x
Glad you found it useful
You guys must live about five miles from me.. That garden centre is just up the road from me in Hull. I wonder, do you live at the cabin site near Leven? Small world, been watching for months and just realised HOW close you actually are. Thanks for all the advice, we are looking to take our little girl to Disney next year hopefully! Signed up to the Virgin site today, will start collecting points, ironic thing Im sure I got tons of them when I got my mortgage through Virgin! :D
Great information - we are just in the process of getting it all sorted but just wondered if there is a app for the virgin fly club?
virgin Atlantic app
Hi guys, great vlog! Can I ask, My husband had a flying club account which he has never used. We have a family holiday booked to Florida can we all use his virgin flying club account to get points or do we all have to have our own accounts.
if you fly you have to accumulate your own it's all free though
Lol leigh face when nick is explaining the points & airmiles, he got that look as if he a kids that bored in a class room 🤣🤣🤣🤣 just comical to watch his face 🤣🤣❤️
he doesn't look that way when he's sat on the plane sipping prosecco :)
Quick question about claiming the “miles” gents. Can I have 1 flying club account and claim the miles for all 4 of us travelling via 1 account? Thanks for the info.
no you need your own accounts unfortunately
@@TheLodgeGuys thanks guys.
Something elasticated for the bedroom! 😳 my imagination went somewhere wild 🫣🤣
Great tips on the video you mentioned your heading on a cruise to France and Spain we are heading to France and Spain on the anthemof the seas in a few weeks could we be on the same cruise?
we've already returned :)
@@TheLodgeGuys when will we see the vlog
Who is your cruise with? Great price
Thankyou for your tips i knew some but not others.. do you know if you get fastpass security manchester included vroom
Great video - made me realise using the free virgin credit card as i’m doing currently probably isn’t the most effective for earning miles.
Do you know is it possible to pay the fee and upgrade my free credit card to a reward+ one or would this be a brand new application?
Tesco used to do the points with BA Avios too but stopped it a couple years ago sadly 😢
Just sat in MCO, waiting for my flight home sadly. Only 11 weeks until we get back fortunately. Just wondering with that Virgin card do either of them charge interest with the way you treat them? In terms of instantly paying them off?
no interest is only charged if you spread payments over months and months
@@TheLodgeGuys thanks guys. Can't wait for next Florida Vlogs.
Do you both have a flying club account each or can you share a account? Just wondering as we have a virgin flight booked for a family of 5 so do I need to set up accounts for each person?
if your a gold member you can pool them together
When are we going to get our loge guy cookbook ? Now you can add another section for Air frying.
Good To Know Guys .
👍
Thankyou so much guys this information is invaluable to me as I really try to collect miles(points) as much as we can but I will have to watch this quite a few times to collect all the information haha .. Thankyou for your vlogs guys we are trying to get through them all 🤩😃
Wow I never knew this about shops away so annoyed we have just booked through Walt Disney world website on Monday just gone, could of claimed the points. & we booked Disneyland Paris for September coming could of got those points as well. Definitely be using this every week for my sainsburys shop thanks for the tip! We currently have 54,000 points looking to get free return flights next April.
So do your Virgin points get added when you book or after the flights have been completed ? We go in 32 days, so so buzzing now 😀😀
After you have completed your flight
Just a thought. If you get points for spending on the Virgin card, can you theoretically go to a cashpoint, take out the £200 on curve and then put the money back in the bank to get the points?
i would love Nick to dicuss what website he checks! ... got me curious!
How to you link your flying account to your clubcard? or do you just claim the points via the vouchers?
you link on the tesco website to auto convert
@@TheLodgeGuys my apologies. You did say it in the vlog. I've ordered my credit card. I'm gonna see how I get on with this. Enjoy the rest of your weekend ✌️
Can you collect points when you use points for your flight? Also do you boost your points when you guys fly? 👍
nope you can claim. points on points flights but you can increase tier points
With the curve part about paying your credit card off with another credit card I’ve just had a look at that part is there a 1.5% fee on curve for doing this ?
not on the free card you'd need the top tier card for that
@@TheLodgeGuys so you need to get the one that costs £14.99 a month to be able to pay one credit card off with another without being charged a fee
yes and there is a tie in and limits so when you work out what you'd gain in points it's not worth the cost over the min term
Can I still claim points on a package virgin holiday I had in April this year?
just the flights portion yes if its within 6 months of flying
The Morrisons offer is for new people, if you have used shops away before it won’t let you have that deal. I looked the other day and saw it, but I wasn’t logged in, when I logged in I couldn’t then have the Morrisons offer.
Great information thanks , could I ask how long can you build your points up before I have to use them . Also day if I had 75,000 points just in my name can I still book 3 seats on plane for free ? Thanks
yes you can. upgrade other or purchase 3 seats with your points
I always pay my credit cards in full as well ! Great description of how you manage to go to Florida ! We’ve had several free flights in my time ! X
Ohh gonna give that cauliflour a whirl looked delicious 🙂👍
Garden looks lovely but please don’t use slug pellets they are dangerous to wildlife like hedgehogs xx very good info about the points
I love your videos. A little jealous of your lifestyle. With the points do you not try and go from different airports to get the cheapest flights?
yes we shop around but are flexible with dates as work allows us to work from anywhere
We have a pizza oven it’s an ooni koda it’s fantastic a pizza cooks in 1 minute
I’ll have to watch a few time for it to sink in 🤣🤣🤣, great video though. Xx
Nick you can get the pizza top you wanted from truffle shuffle and l think it’s cheaper than Disney. X
I pre pay money off my fuel bill with a credit card to earn points and then pay it straight back as you do.
Nice vlog guys. Interesting topic but as I have found out the dates are very limited to get Virgin flights using points - nothing available during peak school holidays at all - sadly for us it’s paying full price even with points accumulated on the same virgin credit card as you have; Virgin want almost £6,000 this December to go direct - Economy (!) from LHR to MCO for two adults and a 6 year old 🙈🙈🙈. Keep up the good work - my little granddaughter loves your Florida vlogs and does a mean impression of “monorail, monorail” and “Joffreys coffee” bless her 😂😂😂 David 🇬🇧😎🇺🇸🌴🎡🛩🏰
try flying indirect or via different airports
@@TheLodgeGuys yes that might work - thank you 👍
Can you set up your monthly bills and mortgage to come off this credit card to get even more points?
depends if your mortgage allows cc as a form of payment I doubt it though
I see you keep trying to make half and half and was wondering if Channel Island milk was anything like?
Can't believe how much you use your Air Fryer. Your oven must now be redundant. Air Fryers seem the way forward x
Have you guys ever tried evaporated milk as your cream? I use it more than half/half because it just tastes creamier. The first time I tried it in my black tea it was like the Halleluiah chorus from Beethoven. In my coffee it was almost better than an orgasm. It is also cheaper and probably less fat since it's regular milk, just evaporated. Cream has more milk fat. Just try it. Also, check amazon for the plastic flowers that look real. They have tons and look EXTREMELY realistic.
Will try remember to try some of that milk 👍
Gardening with a screwdriver ??? Love your blogs guys Cynthia my husband and I are off on the Anthem of the seas. In June 2023. Rather a long time to wait but we are watching blogs to find out things
So do you only pay for places to stay?
stay tuned as we cover hotels in a future vlog
Do you both earn points on the same flying club membership or have got separate accounts? I've recently hit 15,000 but should my Wife be collecting points or am I able to use my points for her too? Hope that makes sense. Keep up the good work guys ✌️
Like to know the same
Free flights is a bit misleading, you still have to pay the tax. Which is hundreds per flight
no tax on most flights returning from USA to UK
Hi Guys. We just started watching your vlogs. We are staying in Scarborough for one week in September. We are Virgin Media Customers for TV, Broadband and Mobile would we benefit from a Virgin card. Great vlogs many thanks Gary & Sandra
i hope you are on anthem of the seas
So in theory, if you both got a paid for Virgin credit card each and a curve card each, you could max out each of your credit limits on the Virgin credit card once, pay off each other's credit card using your curve cards at the end of each month and get the maximum amount of miles each month and do it indefinitely using the same credit every time. In effect you'd never pay it off, it would just be going back and forwards earning maximum points every month?
I feel like I could as Nick anything and he would know the answer! He is really good about explaining things, especially these Virgin points, I wasn't really aware about them before now. Definitely a good way to collect points :)
