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

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

    • IVI on 25/01/2015 - 20:33

      App size ~19 MB.

      • IVI on 25/01/2015 - 20:50

        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…!

        • IVI on 25/01/2015 - 20:54

          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).

    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. :(

    • veetor on 25/01/2015 - 10:25

      Minimum order $5.05 applies.

      • retiredfeline on 25/01/2015 - 10:29

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

        • t25 on 25/01/2015 - 11:50

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

      • IVI on 25/01/2015 - 20:35

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

    • Snoop on 25/01/2015 - 23:44

      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! ;)

      • easternculture on 26/01/2015 - 00:20

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

        • Snoop on 26/01/2015 - 00:28

          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!!!

        • easternculture on 26/01/2015 - 00:40

          @Snoop:

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

          click on that and proceed

      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.

      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.

    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.

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

    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

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?
