This should work with $11 Telstra Rewards Tickets as they use the same Event Cinema Gateway for payment

This should work if you have Free or Prepaid Vouchers and pay a $1 booking fee

This should work with Advanced booking tickets (when booked on Boxing day), as long as payment is processed (which it is) on Boxing Day

If your using your AMEX with Masterpass, Dont forget to Double Dip with the AMEX offer of Spend $40+ in one or more transactions & Get $10 Credit

Register @ Bankwest for Masterpass. You DONT have to be a Bank account holder or have a Mastercard to use their MasterPass Gateway. Register with email/phone number and add any Credit card i.e VISA/AMEX etc. Link to Register

Moonlight is having the same offer for Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth

      No comment on the bottom of the e-mail mentioning masterpass or gold class.
      At least with Village Cinemas (VIC).

      How 8.60? inst it $11 each?

    • aussie28 on 26/12/2014 - 00:49

      Sorry I meant 6th of January Tuesday prices and when I just looked now I can see that I did not have to go through Testsra to get that price. Look at Australia Fair in QLD tickets are cheap as.

      • aussie28 on 26/12/2014 - 00:54

        Other days except Tuesdays are only $9.50 each.

    Just purchased 2 tickets, in 2 different transactions, using evouchers from experiencethis(scoopon) deal. (so paid $2.20)

    I do think (and hope) that I get 2 gold class eVouchers

    • dcuksuop on 29/12/2014 - 09:44

      I got my 2 gold class vouchers, PLUS 2 small popcorn and coke (which I already used one of when watching the movie booked to get this deal).

        Managed to snag a couple using my free e-vouchers and paying only the booking fee. Tried buying more tickets and this happened to me, too. Strange thing is I can access my Masterpass account with my credit card still on file when I log in from the Masterpass website.

  • auna on 26/12/2014 - 02:19

    A truly incredible deal ;)

  • DEvok on 26/12/2014 - 02:24

    Yes this will work guaranteed.

    Either use your FREE cinebuzz points to book for the applicable day via the links. Or other options via Telstra, student, entertainment book, or whatsoever ever evoucher you have as long it works for Saturday's.

    Assuming you have registered masterpass with any bank of your choice since it's exactly like PAYPAL and VISA checkout.

    Then book and play their waiting game.

    Entertainemnt book works the best as you are paying $12+ $1.10 booking, and works any day and time of the week.

    But the I have one question, does the tickets have to be claimed? I'm on holidays and I want to book for sydney and I'm not in Sydney. In assuming all that needs to be done the the transaction completed through the right links.

    • concento on 26/12/2014 - 03:43

      If you use cinebuzz points there are no booking fees, how can that qualify for a Masterpass transaction?

  • tjoyc8 on 26/12/2014 - 02:37

    Just Bought a ticket for $7.60, i think i win!! aha now just waiting on that gold class voucher!
    I will have saved $39.50-$7.60= $31.90 Per ticket!!!!
    Best Boxing Day sale ever!

  • cartman on 26/12/2014 - 02:46

    Have just split my usual family tickets across 4 transactions using Telstra tickets. $11 charge each and have registered with the $10 Amex refund so hopefully all up spent $34 for 4 tickets + 4 GC tickets. Thanks EC. Each individual ticket says "Thanks for using MasterPass Please allow 24-48 hours to receive the complimentary Gold Class eVoucher" Now we wait!

  • Ash-Say on 26/12/2014 - 07:22

    Used two vouchers that I received from Living Social deal and paid $1.10 for each booking.

    Got confirmation straight away that I will receive my Gold Class Voucher in 24-48 hours.

    Fantastic deal. Booked five tickets on five separate transactions, and received the confirmation on the bottom of each 'print at home ticket' that will receive a Gold Class ticket in 48 hours. Great when combined with the fact that you are earning Cinebuzz points each time (might even receive cinebuzz points from the Free GC ticket?). I signed up though NAB Masterpass and received a couple of errors when trying to complete Masterpass Transaction, but just exited out of Masterpass and tried again without issue. Also linked my ANZ rewards Amex so also receive a free $20 event gift card for each $200 spent, and maybe even $10 Amex credit. Time to book a few more tickets me thinks!!!

    • kds5pp on 26/12/2014 - 12:48

      How did you use NAB Masterpass? The Event website diverts me to a Bankwest Masterpass page.

        Just googled NAB Masterpass, link below:

        fairly quick and simple sign up process and can use any credit card.

        • groook on 26/12/2014 - 13:11

          I was having major issues with the Bankwest one, couldn't add a card and wouldn't checkout with another. Made a new account with the NAB Masterpass and while I still had a few errors and login difficulties it eventually worked

  • ulun-lpg on 26/12/2014 - 11:33

    This is so awesome! hopefully we all get our gold classes!
    and i think, if you purchase future tickets and cant make it, sell it on ozbargain for the half price. you still profit.

    It has to be booked today, but can the movie be booked for another day but booked today? If that's makes sense.

    • dazza666 on 26/12/2014 - 13:09

      It appears so, All future screening tickets I have booked today list at the bottom of the ticket that I will receive my GC ticket within 48 hours

  • ulun-lpg on 26/12/2014 - 13:09

    with amex, when you spend $80, does this mean you will get $20 cash back?

    Thanks just bought one using the Telstra deal - worked a treat!

  • DEvok on 26/12/2014 - 14:11

    In that case this will work as I do this always, a booked movie with Telstra can als be changed to another date, seems latest movies that are displayed on their site is the 7th, book for that and head to the box office on the. 7th to change to another later date, hope this helps.

    • ulun-lpg on 26/12/2014 - 14:24

      and this always worked?

      what about wrong cinema selected? can they change to different location as well?

  • DEvok on 26/12/2014 - 14:44

    No their system isn't umm what's that word, they arnt connected with everywhere so no, in other words if you booked George street and took it to bondi, no refund has to be the same box office.

    The only problem with changing Telstra tickets is that they make it hard for you if you want to change to another movie, they insist you pay more for full price, Another time and day is all good for the same movie.they sometimes need to get a manager if the guy who works there is new.

  • l2argain on 26/12/2014 - 14:46

    How long till you get confirmation of free gold class? I didn't go via Telstra as the movie I selected was cheaper to buy direct tickets.

    I also used anz Amex registered via AMEX connect for events but paid via master pass. No confirmation I get $10 credit YET & they normally come straight through.

    • unelectric on 26/12/2014 - 15:19

      At the bottom of your print out voucher for the movie you booked it should say "Thanks for using Masterpass, Please allow 24-48 hours to receive your complimentary GoldClass eVoucher."

    If anyone wants a gold class ticket but doesn't actually want to see another movie, a cheap way of doing it is book a kids ticket to capalaba qld. The ticket is $6.60 total ($5.50 ticket plus $1 booking fee). Pay with masterpass. Rinse and repeat for more tickets. Someone told me today that gold class tickets are usually $37 each so that is a very cheap way of doing it. (Capalaba is my local cinema)

      • Savvymum on 27/12/2014 - 03:50

        Glad I'm not the only one buying bulk - I bought 9 tickets 3 x 3 for myself and two kids but all movies they really want to see. Because The deal was too good to miss I paid full price for my first lot of tickets (first time ever! $52 for three tickets to see big hero 6 last night. Would normally have never ever paid this but figured normally spend $30 for 3 so the extra $22 would more than cover a gold class ticket). But after that I have placed my hopes on scoring a ticket off the booking fee - have to say great promotion for masterpass - I hate PayPal just for the fees they charge whenever I am selling somethjng on eBay and checking out via masterpass comm bank was super easy for me.

  • DEvok on 26/12/2014 - 22:49

    The other trick is to just refund the tickets when u collect them, they can refund you movies if you watched least 30mins of the movie.

    • gsrt22 on 26/12/2014 - 23:36

      they dont issue refunds that easy. I have 3 gold class tickets for tomorrow (got them over the counter at george st sydney) but they wont give me a refund !! I dont know what to do. thats $140.

      • Savvymum on 27/12/2014 - 03:54

        I didn't know they refund at all but above poster mentioned they refund after you have watched at least 30 minutes of the movie

    I bought 4 tickets for $40.20. Hoping that Amex will pony up for the $10 discount, though I suspect they might only give you cash back if you use Amex directly.

      It should be. Nothing in the T&Cs to indicate otherwise. They'd be up for misleading advertising if they didn't honour them.

      Personally, I put through 18 tickets. I punished them hard for not locking down the T&Cs. Used Telstra to book and got one regular movie, plus Gold Class for $11. Times 18. It was perfect timing, since I planned on going to see a few movies over the break anyway. I figured I'd also buy some extra tickets for friends. If they can't make it, it just means that I'll have room to stretch out at the first movie and the Gold Class movie will cost $11 instead of $5.50. Big whoop.

      Also got the Amex deal, so $10 back there as well.

      Ridiculously good value.

    I got three… took a while deciding on the fourth and failed. I chose and it was technically 12.00 PM when I received it. It doesn't mention me getting it for that one :(
