    Not working for me

    Scam promo not working.

  • Did they mess up the launch by starting it early?

  • No free pint. RIP Dan murfys gift card
    They probably didn’t want everyone rushing to dannys on a Saturday arvo for free beers

    Edit: 10am got my free gift card but it says Guinness and not Dan murfys. Hope it’s not like last year where it’s locked to certain venues

    • It is locked to the venues in the pub finder and dan murphy's

  • Working now.

  • Can confirm it's working now

  • Seems to be a pre-paid Mastercard.
    I can't see why this would be valid for any purchase.

    • Seens to be broken, I click get my gunness and then it goes to submitting and nothing happens

      • restart the app and it should be already added in the app. at least that worked for me

        • I did it this morning -said successful and keep an eye out on email but still have not received a text/email with the gift card code. Did everyone get the gift card instantly? Thanks

        • what is the app? I can't find it in Playstore

    • +1

      It's merchant locked, but yes you can buy anything at a participating venue.

    (profanity) this. First it said none left, now its (profanity) broken

  • +1

    Just wanted to share that I just tried to use it via apple pay at BWS and it got declined. I am guessing it is actually tied to Dan Murphy’s then. Anyone else have any luck or even online purchases?

    • Same phone number on all claims?

      • -5

        Many numbers on boost and amaysim
        Will continue tomorrow lol

  • +3

    Worked at Danmurphys Tasmania

    • Should we add the card to the Apple wallet first, or does it work directly from the Vault app?

      • +1

        Online worked direct numbers

  • Since it needs to be lower than 9C to win, I’m guessing people from snowy places, Tasmania and maybe melb would only be the winners for this comp 🤪

  • Have all the cards been exhausted for the day?

    You have to allow your location when browsing the page. Brisbane 21 so how to get around that?

    • GeoPort

      • Thank you.

        Anything special you need to do to get it to work on Windows 11? Installed it, allowed the firewall port prompt, however the drop-down list for 'Select Device' is blank.

        • iTunes is probably missing

  • +1

    In case anyone is interested the card worked for an online order at Dan Murphy’s.

    • -1

      I tried last year's and they don't

      • +1

        Maybe the cards are better this year because it worked for me.
        Order was exactly $20 and is ready to pick up.

        • -2

          I thought maybe they updated last year's cards but they haven't

  • +2

    Right on midnight the page refreshed and it isn't showing that "all cards are allocated for today" but instead says to claim free Guunness. Enter details and it comes up with "no free pints available". I'll try again at 9am as that might be when they're allocated for the day, otherwise this promo is hit or miss and is just a competition

    • I tried at 2am and same thing said no pints avaliable

        • Strange, seems like it is stagnated releases. I'll try tomorrow at 8am

  • +8

    This promotion went from being interesting to a frustrating waste of time, looks more like a competition.

  • +2

    And on the stroke of 9AM, no pints available.

    • Thought it was daily?

    • yep I was here too at 9am - 'no free pints'
      Bots?

        • They showed up for me but as soon as you enter the details you get the no pints 🤣🤣

        • +1

          I think that's the 'pre-registration' messaging.

          There should be a 'claim now' button after registration if pints available (from memory)

          I don't think todays have dropped yet.

          • @MagpieSilver: Oh I understand. It's very confusing the messaging. I'll remove my above comment to avoid confusing everyone.

          • @MagpieSilver: Even with claim now, as soon as I entered details got the message they will email whne temp is right etc etc

            • @easternculture: Yes that is what I saw, "claim now" earlier at 6am, 8am and just before 9am. It didn't sound like a preregistration which I had done prior to today.

              • -1

                @Lucille Bluth: I tried at 12am, 1am, 5am, 8am and 9am.

                Got the same message, even though it initially told me I can get a free pint

  • +1

    It looks like the 'not now' messaging variations are:

    A: (Too warm or not uploaded today's pints yet) : "We will let you know via email and SMS as soon as the temp drops " (Even when it's cold enough)

    B: All claimed for today.

    So the promo is basically 'You have 5 mins from when we decide to do the drop today, if you are in the right temperature zone' (Or your chopper works).

    Everyone registered in the 'cold' postcodes get an automatically triggered email/SMS/push notification, so that's the starting gun.

    It's very badly worded all round, and obviously written by a copywriter briefed before the mechanics were locked in properly.

    The last 2 years were much easier to grab a pint, pre-ozbargain knowing about the promo 😉

    • Ozbargain always knows

    • I have never been able to claim it

  • Today’s free pints all gone. Not sure if it started at 10am like yesterday but must’ve gone within minutes. Less allocation compared to yesterday from now on so got to be quick.

    I got the gift card yesterday, can confirm that it works at Dan Murphy’s for any product/s to the value of $20

    I bought a bottle of great nothern, a better beer, a vadka milkshake and some beef brisket bites for $20.04

    Gift card covered $20 (there’s no transaction fee like at the pubs) and had to pay the remaining 4 cents in cash

  • What time of day does the rewards allocation reset each day?

    • I reckon either 9am or 10am. Yesterday it was 10am

      • It's not known yet. I've been 'somewhere cold' at 12pm, 8am, 9am and 10am.

        Last year I grabbed one just after midnight.

        Yesterday was meant to be 9am, but wasn't working properly and ended up being around 10am.

        There's no 'sold out' sign yet. So i think they might be staggering the times daily now. (It's also Sunday, so they might not be watching things that closely.)

        Push emails/alerts go out when they go live to people who registered postcodes that hit the temp at that time.

  • +5

    Guinness weather is inaccurate! It’s 8c but their is 11c!

  • +1

    nothing today

  • +1

    All gone

    • Tried from midnight a few times and nothing lol

      • +1

        I think it got released at 10. Tried at 9 and 9.30 no dice - got the no pint available message. Tried again at 10.01, got the allocation exhausted message. Gone in 60 seconds

  • +3

    I click on the link immediately when I get notified of an especially lovely day for a Guinness. Every single day the same message pops up: Unfortunately our allocation of free pints has been reached today…
    Waste of time.

  • +1

    Hey guys, are the prepaid Mastercards loaded into the Vault app?

    • Last year they were

  • +3

    NO FREE PINTS AVAILABLE
    You will soon receive an email explaining how to claim your free, soul-warming Guinness. In the meantime, if you want to find an eligible pub or Dan Murphy's near you, check out the
    Guinness Finder

    About the third time it let me fill in the form, and upon clicking 'Get my Guinness' the button would change (I think to 'Submitting'?) and then go back to 'Get my Guinness', spammed the button and got the above message which makes no sense to me…. Of course nothing came through via email

    What a load of BS
    Is this just some weird way to farm information for the purpose of marketing/advertising (spam)?

    • The promo worked last year for me – seems like they have f'ed up the technical implementation this time

  • Anyone successful?

    • +1

      Nope, tried at 9am and 10am and no luck

  • +1

    I've not even seen the 'exhausted' message since Saturday, and never had a notification (are they SMS only?) despite it being below 9 degrees here since saturday. Which makes no sense with the copy on the page.

    I'm beginning to think they literally allocate a number of vouchers to a number of phone numbers and link them.

  • +1

    Good idea, awful execution.

  • +3

    Glad gave up on this cold Deal❄
    Many wasting their time⏰
    And changed only for [NSW, VIC]!

    Bought 10 cans of Guinness for $20 & relaxed in the warm Qld sun🌞

  • +2

    Just tried claiming again today at 10am, all allocation exhausted. Has anyone here actually managed to get something?

    • Nah it doesn't want to work, I even registered for updates

      • Tried again today, 9am and 10. no luck

  • it says something about an app…..what is the app as I can't find it in Play store

  • +3

    Absolute scam of a promotion.

  • +1

    Scam. 10am seems to be the allocation open time. Tried filling in form at 9.59am, can claim free Guinness but when submitting form said no free pint available. 10am again claim free Guinness but can’t submit form. Tried on multiple browsers no luck. 10.05am allocation exhausted.

    • +1

      I got the claim message at 8:50.
      Filled details and then dreaded no free pints message

  • Got a card on Thursday and today. Can confirm they have completely messed up the server configuration for this to work smoothly / fairly. It's literally a lottery, not first come first serve.

    • Any tips? 10:01?

      • +1

        Starts at 10am, lasts for several minutes.

    • +1

      What time did you try? 10am? Unable to submit form around 10am so assumed website traffic

      • Starts at 10am, lasts for several minutes.

        • +2

          I jumped on at 9:59, kept refreshing it even at 10:03 it still only allows me to register now, not claim despite it being 5 degrees. Scam promo

  • +2

    Unobtainable for me. I don’t even get the allocation exhaustion message. I either get “ We will let you know via email and SMS as soon as the temp drops and the weather is worthy of a pint of Guinness.” or get redirected to drinkwise

  • -1

    Got one today.
    Same server problems.

    • any tips?

      • +1

        Honestly I don't think you can get one without scripting it.

        • ill wait for the next winter solstice.

  • +1

    What is this shit, it’s 6 degrees and it’s not working. 10am is ridiculous if that’s the point to claim

    • +2

      Made to wait for 10am for what? A succulent Chinese meal?

  • 11am… there are still pints available but no one can get them…

  • +1

    keep getting emails from the guys, only to have to re-sign up, and there being no beers anyway. Feels like a marketing scam.

  • +2

    Anyone in Melbourne, today is the day. Just claimed one. Showing as 8 degrees.

    • Thanks. Got one too :)

    • Got one too. Thanks!

  • Got mine this morning. Will be good to have a pub meal in this cold

  • Yippee, just claimed one $20 🥳

  • Finally managed to get one. Button wasn't response on Edge (Windows 11) but was on Edge (iOS 17).

  • so I got an SMS to claim this, downloaded the Vault app and it preloaded it to a random number. I can't add it to Google wallet because it's linked to the other number of course. security issues?!
