Where are my Bonus points?

Post by
Hello all!
From Oct 11 to Oct 15 I have been driving roughly 1100 kms which should render a bonus of 1000 points for driving 500 miles within a week. (500 miles equals 800 kms). However, so far, no bonus points have been issued. Is there a delay?

That is a one-time bonus.

Well, now. You could have at least given me a "trick or treat" before deciding to scare me! :lol:

Happy Halloween to you, too!

Should it somehow be related to the average distance a typical driver drives in a country, and the state of the roads?
I believe that if such a change is made, it would put the 500 Mile candy in the realm of Wazers who use the app regularly, as we are discussing average distances.

Nonetheless, it is a challenge for New Wazers to complete that candy, as all other bonus opportunities are relatively easy.

As far as India is concerned, I feel the candy is placed right. 800 kms in a week is fair. ;-)

There could be a short delay in processing of the drives. You should also note that the week runs Monday to Sunday rather than a rolling 7 day period so your drives from the 15th will count towards a different weekly total.

Can you only get the points one time for driving 500 miles in a week or could you get it each week?

I got it once in the beginning but a few weeks ago I drove about 750 miles in 4 days and didn't get the points.

Shees! I hope your back will forgive you. Which makes me think: should the 500m-cookie come "cheaper" in some countries? Should it somehow be related to the average distance a typical driver drives in a country, and the state of the roads? I did the 500m myself on a long weekend-trip after a week of commuting, so the longest part in that week was a mere 150 miles over flawless freeway.
