  6. Select Cart and press on the small down arrow next to "Mixed Feast" and press "Remove"
  7. You are left with the add ons in cart. Checkout, and enjoy!

    Just voicing out similar frustration that H&S isnt available all year long despite the original itself tasting, well, too salty and nowhere near as crunchy as the H&S.

    I remember reaching out to KFC facebook page or twitter and requesting for it to be made available all year long and they said to reach out to the individual franchisee as some stores are owned by Yum! brands and others by Collins Foods?

    I think the stores owned by Collins Foods are the ones that usually had H&S running all year long.

    This has been discussed here apparently.

      no comments in that thread since 2019 lol

      anyway town hall and central KFC sydney always has hot & spicy- damm those rich people that live near those KFC lol

      • I live 5min walk from town hall kfc and im not rich lol

        • Not rich, because living 5mins from Town Hall takes all your money?

      • Dulwich hill KFC too!

        • wow lucky for them - very odd how its just a standalone kfc outside the 2 CBD's ones that offer H & S

          • @prankster: St leonards use to offer H&S all year round - not 100% sure if still does

          • @prankster: Just FYI… The KFC at Chatswood Train Station also offers H&S all year round.

      • you can start commenting again in there :D

    • +1

      Agree H & S should always be available

  • I’ve been doing this for a while now lol

    I think the red rooster hot n spicy is better. A yummy sauce that’s actually spicy.

  • Why is hot and Spicy only a limited time thing when it's so much loved and should replace the original imho. I know Queensland has it all year around but Vic surely misses it most of the year

    • +7

      I agree that it tastes far better.

      The reason it isnt avaliable the entire year in some stores is because nearly nobody buys it when it is, im talking maybe 1/6th the sales of original recipe outside of promo periods.

      It sells very well as a limited time item but very poorly as a permanent menu item.

      • Really appreciate your reply, I am sure things are changing now, red rooster too now have launched a hot n spicy version of their fried chicken, im sure KFC will realise this soon enough that year on year sales of the hot n spicy are on the increase. Maybe one day VIC will get them like QLD.. I can hope eh' :)

        • +1

          yeah i tried the red rooster hot and spicy chicken, its not bad compared to KFC but yes i always like it when KFC brings back the hot and spicy to the normal stores

      • Would you know if the Tabasco KFC promo will ever come back?

        I really liked that flavour!

        • never seen a tbasco KFC promo before! wicked

    • +2

      The only Vic store that has it all year round is Victoria gardens

      • Thanks for sharing, will check it out

      • Good to know, I am not too far from there, thanks.

      • I don't think they do H&S all year round. I asked them about 6 months ago and they said they don't do H&S, only when KFC run the promo. Anyone else been there recently and purchased H&S before this promo started?

      • +1

        Last time I checked they stopped serving it in October last year. Sucks as it was the closest location to me.

    What's the taste between hot and spicy and the wicked wings/zinger? I've never tried the hot and spicy but it sounds popular among ozbargainers that I'm intrigued to try it. Just wondering how different it tastes, and is it actually spicy since the wicked wings are quite mild in heat for me.

    • It's not that spicy. I always add extra chilli sauce.

    • +3

      It's the same coating as wicked wings and zinger burgers. It's just covering full chicken pieces.

      • Thanks, I bought a hot and spicy fill up box today out of curiosity. The chicken is much larger than the wicked wings but tastes the same

        • mine was overcooked too dark last night

  • +1

    Why not just pay 6.95 for 6 spicy and crispy add on? You get two more pieces. I do have this add on option after i add cheap as cheap deal to my cart

    • Hot & Crispy is available at select stores only. What store is this?

    • I can only see a 4 piece add on.

    • +1

      Hot & Crispy is not the same as Hot & Spicy.
      Hot & Crispy is boneless, and probably smaller.

  • +2

    Best one was the Tabasco chicken, that was good. I don't usually like KFC but I loved that stuff

  • but ordering via app, can we get free drink and small chips from doing the survey?

      • hmm that discussions how to get the receipt, but i want to use the old receipt to get free drink and chips when ordering via app

        • +1

          When you pick up the food, tell them you also have a survey and show it to them on your phone with the code.

  • i had one amazing thing with kfc, one day i was trying to order X pcs chicken for $Y but turn out that option is available only when we buying a package/set meal (as add on).
    i must be looking like a poor guy so the staff told me dont worry i can do that price for you.
    and then inside the box i see he added 2 extra pcs as well ! thanks. last for lunch and dinner that day

    Has anyone noticed they've taken off wicked wings in the build your own bucket?

    • How much were they in the build your own bucket?

      I'm seeing 10 wicked wings for $11.95 under in the "chicken" menu

      • I usually get 9 originals + [6 wicked wings x2] = $26.35
        Assuming 9 originals in build your bucket now is $13.45, then 12 wings works out to be $12.90 ($1.08 each) as opposed to $1.20 each (10 wings @ $11.95).
        Build your bucket is cheaper than ordering separately :(

    • Was at a KFC ordering some Hot n Spicy today and noticed the same thing, wicked wings no longer on the BYOB Chicken menu. Not sure if just particular stores or all stores since I haven't used BYOB in a while

      Love this, very informative. But what are you gonna do with 12 bits of chicken? KFC isn't fantastic the day after, Korean style chicken keeps better imo.

      Disregard my comment if you're buying for a family. My personal opinion is that the $7 is a perfect offering for one person but you are right that it doesn't scale well

      • KFC isn't fantastic the day after

        Sounds like you need to invest in an air fryer

        • @CodeXD: KFC lives it's best life reheated in my Kmart air fryer, but it still gets really dried out. Any tips?

          • +1

            @modded: Reheat at 150 degrees C for 15 minutes. That's what used to suggest on their packets 30-40 years ago.

    • Noice.

  • Yup still work but gave error when using paypal during checkout. Changed to cc and okay

  • Fukk always like this. We buy 4 pcs chicken not 2 bigs 2 smalls..! But they sneaked in couple small pieces in.

    Anyone here always open the box to check? I mean the menu didnt say

    • +1

      That's pretty normal?

      • But we buy 4 pieces of chicken, not 2 small and 2 big? If thats on the menu i will accept, otherwise i want all 4x normal pieces

  • Boo. Just ordered and got original instead of hot n spicy…

    • Complain. They'll give you a free meal XD

      • +1

        But that might compromise this hack. I'll take it for the ozbargain community.

        • This 'hack' is part of the add-on when ordering… they're not gonna remove it cos someone got OR instead of H&S…

        • +1

          just dip into fresh chop chilli + soy sauce ala superbowl restaurant

    • Ordered again and got h and s this time! Small pieces. But not complaining too much. I think 3 small 1 big.

  • +1

    had it today. its so tragic what hot n spicy has turned into. neither hot nor spicy. overcooked, no chilli spices anywhere

    • +1

      yeah i tried it tonight and dunno, kinda fell flat for some reason

      maybe coz i had to wait 40 minutes from entering drive through till i got my damm chicken. its either the H & S or the dinner rush

  • Is there a way to add KFC feedback form when purchasing from the app? My local store doesn't give me the feedback rewards if I purchased online.

    Thanks

      • I think you misunderstood my question. I can get the receipts but, I cannot get the rewards if I order online even though I have done the feedback, they don't want to accept it.

        • https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/12151398/redir

          There is no way to automatically add the survey rewards to online order. Alternatively, you need to order on app, and pay at the counter. Let them know you have survey when you pay.

          • @CodeXD: I answered below. I paid via the app and choose collect.

        • I just done it yesterday at sydney cbd.
          Just go in show your online order on app, they will search on their screen to make sure its real, then tell them you have a survey paper and would like chip and drink.
          They done it for me. They will issue another receipt with zero dollars

          • @CyberMurning: Yeah in my local area they won't accept it, they said it's because I ordered online. They would only give me the rewards if I order in-store. It's been years

            • @embi: Bring bikies next time

            • +1

              @embi: They're 100% wrong. Staff used to tell me this but I haven't needed a printer for over 2 years, so I contacted KFC about it. Read my post below this one to see what happened, but basically you could either print and use the emailed receipt, or contact KFC via PM on facebook. Explain what they say, that it's inconvenient for you to print and carry an A4 page in your wallet for their ADVERTISED SURVEY, that you know other people who contacted KFC about this same issue, could they please do the same as they did for those other people and inform the branch of their responsibility regarding receipts. Be polite about it because they will make the manager contact you to apologise, say they've updated their staff, maybe give you a credit at that particular store, etc.

    • +1

      They're legally required to provide you with a printed receipt at point of purchase if you require it. And that's regardless of them emailing you a receipt. I asked KFC HO who confirmed this.

      So I ask for… my receipt, or if you can't find it any receipt will do, it's just for tax/the survey purposes. After KFC HO contacted that branch and updated their education I no longer have problems getting a receipt. Not until a staff member comes from another store. In that case I say I've had staff say that before, HO confirmed it's a requirement, but I don't care if it's my own receipt, anyone's receipt will do for tax/survey. By then they realise I'm not leaving so they stop arguing and just grab one out of the garbage or reprint one.

  • Cheers, election night sorted

  • They killed this hack

    • No they didn't. I can still see it in my app for my local store.

      • Enjoy it while you can

        • Nah it's still there. The only reason I can think why you might not see it is if you didn't have a high enough cart total.

          • @[Deactivated]: It came back today. They were just low on chicken so stopped it for a day

            • @ndftz: Ah ok… Tonight my app tonight said a new app is coming so I should check my phone number is correct. Maybe they're planning on SMS verification for something… maybe a rewards system and/or individualised deals like McDonalds.

      They’ve subbed it for 5 tenders $6.95 addon

      • +1

        Looks like the KFC at Noosaville is running low on chicken, they have removed almost all options in the app. If you select the chicken menu or the build your own bucket menu there isn't many chicken options in regards to pieces

        • Confirmed. Maroochydore still has the hack

    • just ordered today

  • +4

    I did something really stupid. I ordered 2x 6.95 for 4 Hot n Spicy and also used the add 2 sides for 5.95. After checking out and paying for it I noticed the cheap as chips deal was only $1 more and I could have gotten 2 extra sides and 6 nuggets for $1 dollar more….

  • Okay I ordered the H&S for the 1st time today.
    It taste like a bit different from their regular chicken, not too sure about that
    but it's not hot nor spicy at all
    Like, I didn't sweat at all, unlike when I go to an Indian restaurant.
    did they give me the wrong box, or it's just how it taste?

    • +1

      Yeah it's not that spicy. I tend to preference it over the original due to the crunchy coating. Even though it's not that spicy, it's still flavoursome, crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside

    • Why would you even compare KFC to an Indian restaurant lol it is supposed to be the same as wicked wings except on the larger pieces of chicken.

    • Lowest common denominator = Mild.

      I usually ask for their Supercharger sauce to use as a dip.

  • If we want to order multiple is the only way to make multiple orders for 4 pieces?

    Survey Update

    Note to people doing the survey:

    They now ask for the Date/Time/Store Number and the Order Number. This is new this week I think as I haven’t seen this before. But it recognises it’s Australia shows an Aussie Flag and shows very strict must be entered within 3 days for validation and what you get for minimum order of $4.95 and what you get if your order is over $19.95.

    Most of us who do the surveys would be familiar with this and haven’t been super strict with the 3 day response - I bought on the 6/6 doing the Add On Hack and did the survey on the 9/6 so I was still in the 3 day window but they maybe stores will be cracking down on people who just enter any number or take longer than 3 days. That remains to be seen. I also get “NO SET ORDER” on app orders so bit hard to put in an order number.

    I’m guessing they have had some negative feedback lately (lots from me) and want to narrow down the store, date, time and order number so they can track issues like 25 minutes to get through the drive through which happened to me recently. But also what time of day that happened.

    So just letting y’all know who might be cheating the survey system it might be getting harder in the near future. Who knows. Just a heads up.

    Enjoy your KFC especially the excellent Hot and Spicy but it’s not like remember it. Cheers.

    Just thought I’d share my experience with you all.

    Works today thanks OP

  • For those in Canberra, the local KFC store in Dickson has a manager special $10 for 10 hot and spicy chicken

    • Probably because this is the last day for hot and spicy

      • Is it really the last day today? Only had it once :(

        • It won't be advertised anymore but if you're lucky your store might have some left over that they may still sell. I remember when hot and crispy ended my local had it available for a manager's special

          • @brandogs: Some stores in Sydney EG Artarmon and Lindfield offer it all year round. I've read before some stores in QLD (Different KFC Owners - Collins group) do as well.
