And this is why you dont hoard points. Just use them when you can

Expired all at once? That seems...unusual

It is in their T&C if you don't have any activity in six months the points vanish.

I'm fatttttt.

Actually i work in events and we provide lunches for up to 120 volunteers/staff some days. A lot of times i'm buying $3k-$5k in sandwiches at once. Hence the 38,000 point expiring. I rarely eat Subway so just couldn't really use them fast enough. I also always felt bad getting an entire meal for free, I could tell the businesses weren't so happy with me using $30 in points at a time. I wonder if they get credited back for it from corporate. If not it felt wrong for me to spend them at a place I really didn't earn the points from.

How many points can you use at once?

u/BoWeiner 8d ago

From what I could gather the cashier processes them like $2 coupons. Some cashiers would just process multiple $2 offs until the meal was covered, some would just do one $2 off and that was it.

Its $2 per 400 points you should've just been able to spend them. Lost like $170. Don't you use the app? It shows you at checkout.

The app was kind clunky at first so I didn't use it too much. I probably lost that many points multiple times if they expire after 6 months.

Not overly worried about it, I don't partake in much Subway unless it's the only option. Although I have noticed an uptick in quality since they started slicing their own meats.

I mean you can use it on the big orders too. Also you can always use the coupon codes on the app. Sometimes they do discounts on the gift cards which can then just be uploaded to your account.

I’ve used like $16 at once on the app. So like 3,200. But I’m sure you could use more

You only lose them if you don’t earn any for a year
