    Can you schedule a pick up time when you redeem the prize?

    • djoz on 16/06/2021 - 16:15
      +1

      Scheduling is possible on the same day. After you place your order, the restaurant doesnt action your order unless you tap "I'm inside the restaurant". So you may order anytime, and then when you go in there, tap "I'm inside the restaurant" or go in your order history and advise your order number to the staff, and they will action it.

  • djoz on 16/06/2021 - 16:13

    Redemption of stashed prizes has opened up in 20 hours (although FAQ has mentioned 24 hours).

    • coxymla on 16/06/2021 - 16:22

      Can confirm; I redeemed a prize yesterday around 1630 and can redeem again today 1420.

  • pennypincher98 on 16/06/2021 - 17:01

    Flipped an Original Recipe into a Zinger Stacker + got a 15pc bucket, today's been a good day
    Would love to get a box meal though…

    Today app actually worked with ordering too, yesterday my order was stuck in limbo somewhere (in my order history, but not in their system)

    Pending redemption, what’s next?

    • vodamerc on 16/06/2021 - 17:51

      Yeah same problem. Cant try adding again because I've apparently started the 24 hour timer without even ordering

  • Vyviel on 16/06/2021 - 20:04

    Everytime I flip the coin even if I upgrade the item to a better one it vanishes from my stash =\

    • djoz on 17/06/2021 - 10:43

      Happened with me. Flipped a Mountain Dew Freeze and got Ultimate Box. And it vanished, not appearing in my stash at all. Submitting a support request from the app - no updates yet since 3 days.

      • Vyviel on 17/06/2021 - 11:54
        +1

        Yeah I have lost 5 items now I have been flipping the drinks and even if they win they vanish afterwards. So I wont flip anymore better to just find the next bucket

  • Newgod on 16/06/2021 - 20:29

    Anyone redeemed 15 pcs box successfully?

      Yes I have 2 hours ago.

      • Newgod on 16/06/2021 - 21:53

        Did you request it manually? I can’t place online pickup order though

        • Solx on 16/06/2021 - 21:57

          I want to know too!… Can't find 15 pieces on the menu for a few pick up locations in Melbourne CBD.

          • iatnuy on 16/06/2021 - 22:40

            @Solx: Didn't request it manually, just through the app just like how you would normally place an order.

            I'm in Sydney though.

  • benchman on 16/06/2021 - 22:28

    Anyone get anything other than food?

  • NobalaKoba on 16/06/2021 - 23:12
    +1

    Have 4 items (had 3 then got 2 before checking stash) and get prompted to remove one, but can't remove one and can't toss what I got, so I'm unable to redeem anything.

    App is extremely buggy.

  • Geoff-bargain on 17/06/2021 - 00:48

    Anyone solve red screen of death? On Android.

    • [Deactivated] on 17/06/2021 - 06:04

      No but I had trouble with the app version just before this one. This fixed it: Uninstall, reinstall, log in with username/password. Then go to Settings, Apps, KFC app, clear the cache/memory, then try it. Note: It's possible just clearing the cache would have worked. But I didn't think of doing that until after I'd already removed/reinstalled. So I listed everything I did in case the reinstall helped fix it.

    • cooni on 17/06/2021 - 07:27

      You just need to try again when the servers aren’t having a moment

    • AbucklingNMS on 17/06/2021 - 17:43
      +1

      Also solved (Only had ONE prob with KFC app before - was a bit iffy once with accepting PayPal out of dozens of go's).

      OK, (make sure already have an account or try to sign up 1st) so major Bucket Hunt Fail on 5G/wi-fi

      … - Uninstalled, Reinstalled, DON'T open app YET, went to App Settings, Allowed :-

      Camera
      Location (while using app)
      Phone
      Storage [I think app wasn't asking for any permissions like it should]

      Opened and logged back in Success - annoying music aside [and map seems to need clicking often on Arrow icon to update position].

      Got my free chips - Tailed & got free Pepsi Freeze - oh well, will be fun using whilst out shopping - I did miss the option to click the [Always] use the KFC app when I tried checking Stash, so it might use the website more often than required.

        Same.

    I've had success flipping a 15 piece bucket for a hoodie and for a $50 eftpos card. Limited sample but about 1:5 chance.
    Am yet to win a non-food prize from a direct spin.

    • angelkulit025 on 17/06/2021 - 10:31

      is there a trick with the flipping a coin?

      • cooni on 17/06/2021 - 10:33

        Nope. Just flip and hope.

            @angelkulit025: Yes but the app isn't working. Can't claim a bucket.

    • MBix on 17/06/2021 - 13:08

      Is there a way to skip the spin animation or you've actually waited 4000 times? Because that's impressive as heck

      How do you claim the hoodie and eftpos card?

  • trabug on 17/06/2021 - 10:00

    • cooni on 17/06/2021 - 10:01

      You can do this when you spin another prize.

      • jcguy7 on 17/06/2021 - 10:30

        How did you get 4000 spins? I could barely get 5 buckets legitimately.

          illegitimately.

            @overule: OP9 has a mute switch too. Otherwise on every other phone there is obviously the ability to mute all sounds.
            You think that it could've been possible there are other sounds exist in the world such as music one wants to play at the same time?

          I had emailed their Support on Tue, 15-Jun when on Flip, I upgraded from Mountain Dew Freeze to Ultimate Box. It vanished from my stash and showed "Prize 3 Empty". Yet to hear from them, I think they must have been bombarded with many such complaints.

          • I Smell Pennies on 17/06/2021 - 23:36

    • vodamerc on 17/06/2021 - 15:26

      Change to another store, some aren't working. It shouldn't even ask for payment info if working.

    • AbucklingNMS on 17/06/2021 - 17:57

      Haven't redeemed Yet (only Pepsi Freeze coin toss), But ALWAYS when Building Your Own Bucket app adds ≈ $18-$20 extra at the start, then REMOVES the extra charge as a negative on your order list before you pay for it - no idea why (Minimum purchase set up, but then wiped in App?? Or something to do with how app works with PayPal/Credit Cards?).

    • Alesen on 17/06/2021 - 18:13

      I tried all the stores in and around Sydney CBD. None works. All only show a discount of $4.

    • pennypincher98 on 17/06/2021 - 20:03

      So if you redeem at 2:29pm you can technically redeem again one minute later at 2:30pm? For example like Zinger burger + large chips?

    • CodeXD on 18/06/2021 - 14:11

      Something weird is going on for sure. My orders are in WA time? Even tho I've never been and all my orders have been in AEST location.
