What Happened to EatClub?

What happened to Eat Club? Been very quiet lately.
The last email I got from them was 15.5.24.
Thinking of so many of their predecessor have folded: Dimmi and forgot all the names now.

What other operators do we have for discounted meals?
Feeling hungry!

    I've been receiving emails from them regularly 20/6, 18/6, 13/6, 11/6. Loads more venues in Melbourne. Maybe they are focussing down here and not in Queensland?

    EDIT: 850 venues in Melbourne according to email.

    • Agree.
      Heaps of places popping up in Melbourne.
      Ive found some fairly decent ones recently after taking a hiatus because some of the venues weren't very good.

  • Just downloaded it the other day and doesn't seem to bad around West End Brisbane area, though i don't know what it was like before i guess. Some good offers on there!

    Still kicking in Perth, plenty of decent places around CBD worth checking out with 30-35% off

  • Disappointed with recent changes to charges by Eatclub.

    Now charging up to about 7% of the final bill as service charge for the Eatclub transaction (as the charge is calculated on the non-discounted meal cost).

    • Oh this is me to me.
      Is this across all merchants?

        I used it yesterday.

        Dine-in for 2 $10.17 $7.12
        30% Off
        Service fee $0.21
        What you paid $7.33

        Works out to be 3% of discounted price.

        FAQ says:

        EatClub charges a service fee for using the EatClub Card payment system. These costs range from a minimum of 1% to 3.5% of the total amount charged to your EatClub Card, with a minimum fee of $0.20 AUD. Use of promotional codes within the app may attract additional fees. Additionally, to the extent permitted by law, some merchants may charge you for using the EatClub Pay Card with their EFTPOS terminal and such fees may be deducted from the balance of your EatClub Pay Card at the time of the transaction.

        Perhaps the venue charged a terminal fee which I guess you'd still be paying if you went and paid without using Eatclub.

        • Hi Neil.

          I guess I noticed it more because I went for a larger discounted meal :) -

          Dine-in $300.88 $150.44. 50% Off
          Service fee $10.53
          What you paid $160.97

          Worked out to be 6.9% of the discounted price.

          • @pencilman: It makes no sense that they are charging the fee based on the prediscounted price.

  • Thanks for responding, either I didnt pay attention or they didnt charge me, or I havent used them for a while…
    Will check them again from time to time.
    Cheers
