Just received an email from Flybuys so this might be targeted for Flybuys members:

AMI is giving you the gift of safety this festive season.

You never know when you and your car might need rescuing – it could be a flat battery, your keys playing hide and seek, or even a pesky puncture on your summer holiday.

That’s why AMI is excited to offer you a free 12 month membership to AMI Roadside Rescue – no strings attached! That’s right, completely free. You don’t even need to be an existing AMI customer to become a member.

Simply enter your Flybuys number in the discount code box at checkout to redeem this very special offer. But get in quick – this offer ends 31 December.

Noticed this is also free to new drivers when I clicked on the email link:

Available to all new drivers who have passed their restricted or full New Zealand drivers’ licence within the last 12 months*.

*As of 4 November 2024

    Didn’t work for my Fly Buys number so guessing it is targeted. Good deal though, thanks for sharing.

    Not working for me even though I received the email

    • Magmags on 15/12/2024 - 16:43

      I just tried it and it's not working for me too…

      • bigcheese on 15/12/2024 - 16:50

        Same for me.
        I got the email about 4pm and was going to post it but couldn’t get the code to work so didn’t bother.

  • P0KEMON on 15/12/2024 - 16:55

    Thank you! I didn't get any email but just put my flybuys at checkout and it worked

  • Patkay on 15/12/2024 - 17:08

    Got an email. Tried my flybuys number. Did not work

  • pdevonporf on 15/12/2024 - 17:20

    Yes, got the email. Tried it straight away did not work.

    Their excuse will be the first 500

  • jasonbing on 15/12/2024 - 17:36

    Doesn't work for me.

  • Rowjo on 15/12/2024 - 17:38

    Got 9 emails, none worked at checkout

  • Springsgrove on 15/12/2024 - 18:52

    Got the email and tried soon after, didn't work for me either

  • L3tstaxth1s on 15/12/2024 - 20:00

    Wonder if their roadside rescue is faster wait times to AA? Who do they use or outsource to?

  • asinha011 on 15/12/2024 - 20:01

    Got the email at 4, worked for me..

  • doubledippps on 15/12/2024 - 20:44

    Got the email and worked for me.

    Did not work for my partner's fly buys but I tried mine and it worked (we both received emails).
    I wonder if you have to put the correct email? I initially put another email when I placed it for my partner's fly buys and it did not work and wonder if it voided it? Though I think that is unlikely.. and it is probably targeted, but fly buys accidentally sent out emails to most people.

    This might be the reason people are not able to claim:

    Vehicles over 3,500kg (3.5 tonnes GLW) are not eligible. By progressing your subscription application, you confirm that your vehicle meets this criteria. Please refer to the Terms and Conditions for more information on what is excluded.

      I think you will find most people have vehicles that are well under this limit

    Unable to redeem

  • Is2u on 15/12/2024 - 23:35

    Didn’t work when I tried earlier but just tried it again and it worked

  • nzmax on 16/12/2024 - 00:35

    Unfortunately my car already gets this for free.

    • CrashAndBurn on 16/12/2024 - 07:33

      If I read it correctly, this one covers the person like AA so would cover whatever car you are on.

  • SassyExOh on 16/12/2024 - 02:29

    Could it be because of this?

      That offer is also running but it’s separate to this offer for Flybuys members.

  • vatsalkgor on 16/12/2024 - 07:28

    Worked for me today morning. Did not work for me yesterday evening. Also even if it says $0, you still have to enter the card details.

  • CrashAndBurn on 16/12/2024 - 07:31

    Failed yesterday. Worked this morning. Make sure you set a reminder to cancel. I already have cover but decided to take this as well as it is like AA covering the person on ANY car, and not just the one you registered.

  • peteb2 on 16/12/2024 - 08:22

    I've been a member with AMi for years, house, contents, cars.. Equally as long with Flybuys. Saw the offer in my email in-tray for 15 Dec & just went through the process. Upon completion it took me to a pay by credit card webpage to be filled out indicating i have to PAY UPFRONT! Hilarious, not! (yet all the way through it says 12 month free)…

    • Stoic on 16/12/2024 - 09:54

      You're supposed to enter your flybuys number into the discounts box on the checkout screen to get the $79 taken off so it's free.

      • peteb2 on 16/12/2024 - 12:22

        Thank you Stoic. Worked this time. I guess i didn't read everything properly! Just hope i never need to use the Service but excellent to think if i have trouble we're sorted! Merry Christmas to you!

  • 2cheap on 16/12/2024 - 08:42

    Didn't work for me yesterday, but did this morning. I kept the details of the used Prezzy Cards from the Sprite competition and they worked when entering as my credit card. No worries about renewals next year.

  • Matrixx on 16/12/2024 - 09:05

    Try to copy the flybuys card number from the email if you have got one, cause i kept copying it from StoCard app, where i store all my cards and kept on declining, then i copied it from the email i got from AMI, it worked, or simply just enter it manually.

  • Stoic on 16/12/2024 - 09:55

    Didn't work for me but worked with my partner's Flybuys account.

    Thanks OP.

  • Wolfy on 16/12/2024 - 10:56

    Didn't work last night but worked just now :)

  • pdevonporf on 16/12/2024 - 11:13

    Didn't work yesterday but now it does!

  • JADO on 16/12/2024 - 12:51

    Not working for me for some reason :(

  • Dago on 16/12/2024 - 13:45

    Initially didn't work yesterday but just tried again now and it worked fine.

  • icemaiden on 16/12/2024 - 14:34

    Didn't work yesterday but worked today.

  • NedFlanders on 16/12/2024 - 14:45

    @Wakrak Please do a @everybody PSA that this comes with a auto renewal "Recurring subtotal $79.00 every year"

    I got it too and it's a very good offer but this caveat needs to be mentioned.

    • Alan6984 on 16/12/2024 - 14:48

      this comes with a auto renewal "Recurring subtotal $79.00 every year"

      Same as for all subs - use a card number that can't be re-used at renewal (at least without your express permission).

    • doubledippps on 16/12/2024 - 23:26

      Do you know if I cancel subscription now it will cancel the service immediately? Is there a way to disable auto renewal? Cheers

  • SassyExOh on 16/12/2024 - 14:48

    Worked for me today.

    Hi Cheapies. Just a point for all to be aware before you sign up free or payed. With this AMI Roadside Rescue service, if like most normal folks you want your broken down vehicle towed not to just the nearest dodgy motors mob, but to your good preferred motor mechanic, then your going to pay through the teeth to have them do so ! : $3 extra per km for that particular journey - route. Now AA standard membership will only tow to "the nearest motor repair place" type thing too. BUT for not alot extra $ per year, the AA PLUS membership option gets you towing your vehicle to your preferred repairer, up to 800km (1000km? ) away , and interisland etc if needed. :)

    • Alan6984 on 16/12/2024 - 19:59

      This is an excellent point.

      I guess having the freebie in this deal (towed to the nearest place) is better than nothing (else you'd have to call them out anyway I suspect), the AA Plus option is much better.
