  • Completed all steps, deal is a bit light on information but I'm assuming the $5 deal shows up Australia day.

    • -2

      Nothing showing for me. Created new account and even changed to different stores. Nothing.

    • App size ~19 MB.

      • Did you want Resources with that App?

        Well, you better have space for them, 'cause you're getting them…

        As well as the Full Menu…

        Even though you can't even LogIn…!

        • Of course, that Bloatware (App)'s Full Menu shows you ONLY ONE price at a time, so - if you want to do comparative shopping (even within the McD's range), bring Pen & Paper (or a good memory).

  • +6

    Can we combine with the fries and drink deal to get a totally free BM meal?

    BTW app doesn't work on tablets, maturity rating low. :(

    • Minimum order $5.05 applies.

      • Fair enough, depends on the restaurant's price then. Order something else to make it almost free if BM is under $5.05.

        • Here is wa the BM is $5.35 if I recall correctly.

      • Chicken Wrap, Fish S'wich, Soft Serve if it fits into $5.05

    • Like others have said, min order is $5.05. If your store only charges $5 for the BigMac, just upsize it to a medium for 60c.
      Not a bad meal for just 60c! ;)

      • app automatically gives you the free upgrade for Big Mac (coke/chips). In Bankstown its $5.10 via app

        • Only $5 for me.
          If you click on the 'BigMac', the item only is $5, a small meal is $5, medium meal at $8.40 and large at $9.00. If I click on the 'BigMac Deal' it comes up at $5.00, $5.60 and $6.20!!!

        • @Snoop:

          second banner that scrolls , 3rd advert says Buy a Big Mac, get a free small coke and fries

          click on that and proceed

          here is a screen shot of what to look for http://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/46868/28164/photo.png

        "Not a bad meal for just 60c! ;)"

        Define "bad" ;-)

    Dupe

    • Dupe of a bargain posted 3 minutes before?

  • Op do you know whether the credit lasts in your account after Australia Day or do you have to use it tomorrow?? Thanks!!

    • +1

      Offer valid until 11:59pm 26/01/2015. This must apply to the actual credit, because you cannot actually apply for the credit on Australia day; has to be before.

  • +2

    So do you pay the remaining total instore or online?

    • +1

      You can do either

  • +1

    Signed up on the Android app but won't let me login after activating the account…

  • +1

    I signed up a while ago and stuck at login page, haven't opened the app since, now it showing I have 3 expired offer include $5 off and $2.5 off.

    • +1

      No offers for me. Zero. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day…

    • +1

      I think the app has been fixed the last few days. I had the same issue and had contacted support. They said Friday that they were working on it. I just tried again and I can log in now. I think the issue was on their server side though - the same behaviour was occurring on android and ios.

      I'm not seeing the offer though.

      • It's in!

  • Just signed up but no offers for me yet.

  • +3

    You need to clean out your inbox!

    • I was just thinking the same!

  • Would this work on an iPad without cellular connection? Not sure if I need to take it into store to pickup or if I can just place the order at home on wifi then go up to collect.
    Seeking a third device / $5 credit for some munchies tomorrow :)

    • +1

      Most McDonald's have free wifi.

      • +2

        Most Macdonalds have free broken wifi..

        Last time I needed wifi, a week before Xmas it wasn't working. I asked a girl there and she said it had not worked this year..

    • Just realised it is probably easier to just make a third account and sign in using that on the iPhone.

  • The "what should we call you?" field is asking for abuse. I put "Puny Human"

    • +2

      Why not put something risque in there like Big Dick? Should cause some amusement when they call out your order. :)

      • +2

        Some of the simpsons moe prank call names would be good, might change it to "hugh jass"

        • +3

          Oh, come on guys, i need "Amanda Hugnkiss"

        • +1

          Done:

          I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and a big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt.

    • +1

      Richard (Dick) Puller
      Sorry havent finished first childhood yet.

    • what should we call you?

      Free kiss

    • I probably deserve negging for being a killjoy, but by the sounds of it… you place your order on the phone, scan the QR code in store or drive-thru, then wait for your order number to come up! :(

    • +1

      McLovin' is my name.

  • +1

    No windows phone app :/

    • +3

      No wp8 app for most things:(

  • +1

    Installed app on android phone then created account but wouldn't let me sign in so deleted it.

  • If this works, thanks mate

  • +5

    The app is huge (MB wise). Original download is 18mb then when you open it, it downloads more crud… Can't wait to delete it after tomorrow

    • Yeah downloading half the internet right now….sheesh whats with this messy app?
      Lotsa weird permissions too wants read your photos too.

      • +2

        Sounds to me like they are swapping your privacy and personal info for a greasy meal

        • It's installing the phone and directions to your nearest cardiologist and dietician.

  • +3
  • -1

    Whats the point of the app?

    • So you can place your orders over this new magical airwave thing and avoid standing in the sheep race!

  • +1

    Seems to download a new pile of crap every time it's opened. How can such a major company come up with such an amateur piece of rubbish? Horrible app.
    Same as tightassedmcgee- Itching to delete.

    • Its sending /recieving info about your habits and your personal data mate - make sure you dont go to burger king or they will know!

      • Its eating my phone data but yep,Lol.

    • +1

      Drop into Maccas was a quality app compared to this.

  • Do we know yet whether the free $5 is only to spend on Australia day?

    • +1

      3.Subscribe to mysurprises and you'll score a $5 offer to use on Australia Day*.

      Offer valid until 11:59pm 26/01/2015.

  • Please Note
    Answering the question (What should we call you) with derogatory answers or names with a sexual nature like (Big Dick) would be seen as inappropriate because 9 times out of 10 the person serving you is an underage child

    Just saying :-)

    Also, This app works fine (for all the people above saying that nothing has shown up on the app)
    the $5 discount will show up on Australia day and will only be able to be used on that same day as shown in the T&C's
    Also, the App works fine on both iPhone and iPad using a different email account (meaning you get a total of $10 discount. Just need to make two orders, one on each account/device

  • +2

    One negative thing about the Applications Auto ordering system is that i know my local McDo has $1 Cheeseburgers but it shows full price when ordering through the app.

  • Does this stack with the free small fries and drink with Big Mac

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/179741

    • +1

      yes. I did a sample order and it cost $5.10 for small meal and $6.20 for Large

      So with $5 credit will cost you 10c for the small big mac meal or $1.20 for a large

  • +2

    It is now Australia Day but I see no offers.

  • +3

    no $5 here either … and im hungry :(

    • +1

      Neither

    • Ronald McDonalds is fast asleep. Come back during the day lol.

      • +2

        "Ronald McDonald's is fast asleep."

        WAKE UP!… ya CLOWN… we're freakin' HUNGRY!

        • Just woke up & I saw the $5 credit… YAAAHAAHAAWWWWWRRRYYYYYYY!!

  • I got the $5 offer in My Surprises just after midnight.

    Of course, it's under "Expired Offers"…

  • +2

    Both mine and my wife's account don't have anything. And we were gonna have a dirty breakfast this morning…what a McFail…

    I am still hopeful that we may get the $5 each…but its almost 8am now…

    • +1

      Ok…just went to have my dirty breakfast…the Maccas main sever is overloaded and no matter how many times I tried with the store manager, it failed. He ended up just giving me a free breakfast meal, but I had to pay for my wife's meal…so instead of $10 off (combined), I got under $7 off. I felt ripped off by $3-ish…despite getting a meal for free…OzBargain fever truly runs in my blood now….but then again, I still have the $5 coupons…so it's another win? Maybe I'll try go for a dirty snack later…in true Straya Day spirit…

  • +1

    Ozbargained?

  • Nothing in my offers.

    • +1

      Logged back in and clicked on the scrolling banner and it's now there

      • I tried that, still nothing… :(

  • +1

    My voucher has just come through in the app! There's still hope everyone :)

  • Mine has just came through too.

  • Nothing!!!! Im a hungry!!!! Maybe the 5a is not before 11.

    • Ok….mine just came thru….. just as bloody well… need this to go towards a double beef, double cheese with bacon and pineapple angus mac later today.

  • +1

    My credit is in!!!! :)

  • Mine too, free lunch today! thanks (well will only cost me $1 or so.)

  • +1

    $5 Offer available to mymacca's® members registered prior to 11:59pm 25/1/2015 and redeemable via the My Macca's mobile ordering application only.

    aw crap this sucked ..today's was supposed to be Australia day:|

  • +1

    Says, sorry no redeemable offers. Anyone else not getting the offer??? I signed up yesterday and got the app yesterday..

    • Yep you're not alone..

  • +2

    Thanks OP! Happy Australia Day! Looks like I'm gonna get me a $15 dinner box tonight.

  • +1

    Signed up and installed the app yesterday, no surprises.

    Also, the app seems to be downloading resources all the time, like every time it opens.

    If you are over your quota and not on wifi, the data charge will cost more than what they give you.

    • Same here, no offers found for your account… total garbage..

  • +1

    already uninstalled the bit of crap. Expired please.

  • +2

    Got the $5, which is good, but boy this app is crap, always downloading loads of stuff, it's slow and not intuitive.

    • Ah as expected the urban definition of crapp already exists and this is a prime candidate.

  • So how do you actually use this $5 voucher once you get it?
    Do you just show it to them and thats it?

    EDIT: Read above again. Order through app, add $5 voucher…

  • Same here, joined and registered everything yesterday, no surprises at all…

    Sorry no offers were found for your account, what a load of CRAP !!

  • How come it's marked as expired?

    • +2

      Because you had to install the app and sign up by midnight last night to get the offer

      • And then there are those that did all that yesterday and still no offer :(

        • Oh ok :(

        • +2

          I tried to use mine earlier and they didn't get my order although I had an order # etc so it should have worked. They put mine through manually instead and charged me the discounted price the app said. I checked the app and it says I haven't used it/and have no previous orders. So if you would like to try to use mine @billyb67 pm me

        • +1

          @zoinks:

          Thanks zoinks but its a 10 min drive just on the chance it might work.. if they cant get something this simple right then screw them ! Ive been refreshing the stupid thing for 3 hours and nothing

          App now deleted…

  • +1

    Also this garbage app had downloaded over 84mb of crap in a few hours.. watcn out !!!
