    Got my self free double tender burger on first AR experiences. I think the app and AR experience is lagging and not working properly. First time using mountain dew freeze drink, try to flip coin, I am getting some error, so I tried again. It's stated that I didn't win but the drink is still in my bucket stash. Try again using another free drink, it stated that I win free double tender burger and I added to bucket stash. Somehow everything disappear. Today check the bucket map, nothing show up at all. Anyway it's good enough for me to claim 2 free meal.

  • clubhonda on 20/06/2021 - 15:42

    Has anyone experienced problems redeeming the 15 piece bucket? Mine will try and bring up a browser window which will have a web page unavailable error, and when I try to redeem it, it applied a discount of $4 only, so you will still be charged $24 buck if you try and redeem it instead of being completely free. Has anyone experienced it or was able to resolve this?

    • djoz on 20/06/2021 - 15:44

      Based on comments above, try changing the store. Have you been able to redeem anything else from this same store earlier?

      I was able to redeem a 15pc Chicken today, no dramas. Discount of $27.95 applied at checkout.

    After many hours procrastinating my work and domestic duties I finally got it to work! Thanks op. Got a free ultimate box!

  • dv1den on 20/06/2021 - 19:27

    Anyone get "Web page not available" when trying to redeem? Something about a web page not being loaded because net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME after I press redeem

    • djoz on 20/06/2021 - 19:29
      +2

      Yes, it happens on the Bucket Stash Page. Bad coding I'd say, but it is a temporary holding page and it moves ahead and tells you to select restaurant for redemption. Works fine then.

      • dv1den on 20/06/2021 - 19:30

        I haven't managed to get past it at all, no matter how many times I try to redeem or how long I leave it on the page.

    Looks like good prizes are starting to run low as I just received my first "24 nuggets for $10" offer after many spins.

    • whitelie on 21/06/2021 - 00:15

      Yep, got a coupon for $2 sliders…. scraping the barrel there!

  • Reveen on 20/06/2021 - 23:58

    I have five slots now which is pretty awesome.

    Unfortunately the lame discount voucher "prizes" are now filtering through.

    • pennypincher98 on 21/06/2021 - 01:53

      Five slots wow.. meanwhile I've got 2 mostly.

      Not surprised discount vouchers are started to filter through after one guy burnt through >10,000 freebies in three days - don't think they'd be getting replaced if we've hit coupons in Week 1.

      • I Smell Pennies on 21/06/2021 - 01:57
        +1

        Coupons might not be a bad idea. I just got a 24 nuggets for $10 coupon, flipped it (lost) but still got a zinger. Imagine what you'd get for winning that flip

        • pennypincher98 on 21/06/2021 - 02:02

          Ah that's actually great, a $6.95 saving on the nuggets is technically less than a $5.95 saving on the Zinger leading to it thinking it's less valuable.
          Good thing besides the BOGOF Zingers ($5.95) and $2 Sliders ($0.95) everything is a $6.95 saving and up, will lend nicely to freebies but as always a chance of going from a burger to a discount.

      • CodeXD on 21/06/2021 - 09:21

        I don't think that's how it works. Prizes should only be considered 'burnt through' when they have been redeemed.

        • djoz on 21/06/2021 - 09:32

          I wish it is that way though. There's a lot of uncertainty with the app atm.

        • pennypincher98 on 21/06/2021 - 10:08

          That's right, should.
          Time will tell if they actually do re-enter circulation though.

    Dunno why you would waste your time flipping a coin. Just use a GPS spoofer and go hunting.

    Managed to get an ultimate box and two three piece meals in around 45 mins. If you spin something you don't want, just hit the back button before it asks you to claim it, open the map and go hunting again. Once you finally get something good then redeem, go to stash and and replace the junk you have.

    • CodeXD on 21/06/2021 - 09:58

      There are some rewards which are only obtainable by flipping

      • SnowDragon on 21/06/2021 - 10:00

        Are you better off flipping the better items for a higher chance?

          i’ve gotten boxes from flipping frozen cokes and chips

        • imcold on 21/06/2021 - 14:07

          Of course if you have the spare time. Best have a reasonable prize ready to enter your stash from the bucket map, so if your flip looses you can replace it right way.

          Have 3 ultimate boxes in my stash, all from flipping burgers.

    • whitelie on 22/06/2021 - 08:53

      Most non food prizes are won from flipping.
      I'm actually not sure anyone has won a non food prize straight from spinning the bucket?

      I've won 3 X 15pc buckets from flipping the better burgers. Got a $50 EFTPOS card from flipping a 15pc bucket.

  • domo653q on 21/06/2021 - 09:46

    my account is stuffed, Only 2 items stashed and wasn't adding in another item. ie getting prizes that arn't going into stash.

      • djoz on 22/06/2021 - 08:37

          My wife's has been like that for 2 or 3 days. Uninstalled etc, nothing worked. She gave up…meanwhile I've gained an extra slot

          • djoz on 22/06/2021 - 08:58

            @whitelie: Was she able to redeem any of the already stashed 2 prizes?

            • whitelie on 22/06/2021 - 09:05

    Although it was mentioned a few times here "resets at 2pm AEST" - I ordered something yesterday before 1pm AEST and still can't order anything now and left KFC before 1:30pm.
    So no reset for me - the item I picked up stayed in "pending redemption" until way after I already picked it up.

    • CodeXD on 21/06/2021 - 12:47

      The app has been really buggy today. I clicked redeem last night on free zinger burger but decided not to buy it. Wanted to get it for lunch today and now it is saying only 1 redemption per 24 hours. I still have the free zinger burger in my stash so it is not registering that I did not make the purchase.

      • johnmelb on 21/06/2021 - 12:50

        So it's not just me then, it's probably better for my health anyway.

      • AbucklingNMS on 21/06/2021 - 22:17

        I redeemed a Freeze Pepsi yesterday BUT guy at counter didn't wait till it showed up on phone as an order - bought 1 Freeze mountain Dew got 1 F.P. free - he handed 'em across without straws - must be V frustrating if people aren't buying stuff. Do have spare paper and plastic straw in car just in case.

        What's weird is app should have mentioned redeem before 9:30pm - no sign of and NO blocked slot today.

        • CodeXD on 21/06/2021 - 22:21

          Are you sure it was your order? lol pretty sure kfc employees don't actually know that you got the item for free. It just comes up as normal order for them.

          • AbucklingNMS on 21/06/2021 - 22:24

            @CodeXD: Yeah it was - no-one else in store at the time just surprised the app didn't bug out. Barely one car going through drive-thru too.

      Exactly the same happened with me. Stayed in Pending Redemption until I signed out and signed in. And now, I cant redeem anything today.

      Plus none of the prizes are getting added to Stash.

  • djoz on 21/06/2021 - 14:41

    Can confirm. I redeemed one Regular Fries prior to 2PM AEST, the stash kept saying "Pending Redemption" even though I completed the order and ate it too. I couldn't add new prizes on that prize slot. Eventually, the expiry timer went to 0 and then started counting in negative! 00:00: -27 (Lol)

    I signed out of the App, signed back in and that time it alerted me my prize has "expired'

  • Szalhi on 21/06/2021 - 15:12

    Three separate times I tried to redeem and it didn't work. I'm not sure if I should be completely mad or not because I'm not paying anything.

          Try manually going into the Bucket Stash, sometimes it picks up "where you left" and gives you your prize.

    If you can't get it reduced to $0 at checkout when redeeming your prize, try to choose a different store. It happens to me today that it doesn't work at KFC store I chose but it works with another KFC store.

  • AbucklingNMS on 21/06/2021 - 22:00

    Using 5g & app is rather slow (don't press minus button on map - places buckets too far away ALSO was sitting in car in KFC carpark yesterday - GET out of car B4 using - camera tried to place Red Dot on dashboard and mucked it up)

    SO - GPS sort of works, BUT app seems to require maybe 30°-45° degree angle while holding phone for AR and direction of red viewing cone on map to move.

    Have app running #yes not touching while driving# (in car - using other phone for nav) got out at Servo dot was right in front of car. While the red progress gauge is filling up I slowly move phone around left to right so the AR bit has something to target the buckets, or Red Dot on - got another bucket at shopping centre right at rear of car earlier.

    Now at 1 nugget & chip filler & 2 freeze Pepsi - all 3 were coin flipped & got exact same prize.

    Working better now - buckets mostly more time on (damn close anyway - had 1 behind & 1 in front of car in KFC carpark yesterday) just hoping for more chickeny prize - if I got a bucket would probs not flip - DON'T want another Freeze Pepsi.

    Redeemed the 50¢ Big Mac the other day - damn why don't they allow PayPal - mostly buy Frozen Raspberry & Frozen Coke with Raspberry added but with a $2 coin.

      Off topic here but ordered 3 Mini pizzas from Domino's last week, 1 is more than enough for each, but wanted Spicy Vegetarian too (Pepperoni is Drowning in fatty goodness) - got to store - they'd run out of bases so had replaced with Regular? X 3 no extra cost (also were Deep Pan 'cause all Mini's are too).

      We were eating pizza for 2 days [would NEVER suggest that OzB'ers get a bunch of friends to all order 3 or more Mini's at the same Dom's to let last 3 or more get the size increase ;) ]

        Same issue here. It sucks because you can't redeem any prizes while the bucket stash is overloaded. I have an ultimate box that I was planning to redeem for lunch! Oh well.

    • djoz on 22/06/2021 - 15:35

      I hope they have changed it to 00:00 AEST, that makes more sense IMO.

        Not midnight. I order for lunch yesterday and still can't redeem this morning. I'll try again at 12pm AEST
