      Seems it is up tomorrow at 11am.

      But the link for the app was only to iTunes, so wondering if that app, rather than Android is for ice cream??

      From the deal link… And it’s not just Brisbane who’s being treated—Uber are offering free, personally delivered ice cream on a global scale. Over 130 countries are in for a very good Friday.

        Yea, that's probably a good idea. I didn't really like the idea of Uber having my PayPal data either…

        Signed up using Paypal in the app, checked paypal account and found 1USD charged and cancelled by Uber. No pre payment set.

          charge or authorisation?

          uber makes temporary $1 pre-authorisations to verify your account has funds - similar to a hotel placing a hold :)

        wait…its $10/tub…yet when we sign up we get $20 credit.
        So $10 for delivery… :/

        • hj0809 on 17/07/2014 - 23:22

          Theurbanlist says it's $25 off the gelato (a 1.5L tub I assume?) but the code is $20 credit. When we order it will become $25? So confusion

    • tonester on 18/07/2014 - 03:13

      500ml - deal updated :)

  • bocca on 17/07/2014 - 16:17

    Anyone found the ice cream icon yet?

    • wired00 on 17/07/2014 - 16:28

      You made the same mistake as me, read the title it says 11am 18JULY NOT 11am 17th ;) Ergo, Icecream icon will be available tomorrow 11am

  • compingqueen on 17/07/2014 - 16:21

    Will this stack with a referral code or the code from here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/151577

    BTW, just did a Google search and all I see is a date of 19th July 2013 for the free gelato. Does anyone have proof of this applying to Sydney?

    • tonester on 18/07/2014 - 03:14

      no but you should be able to use that code for free ice cream instead of a ride - those in melbourne who applied CPREADER14 should be able to score 3 free tubs ($20+$15x2) :)

    • easternculture on 17/07/2014 - 19:49

      probably part of their advertising budget which is tax deductible

  • purplecat on 17/07/2014 - 20:04

    Does this work for existing signed up customers or only new?

  • t_c on 17/07/2014 - 20:11

    I fail to see the connection between taxi service and gelato?

    This is like ringing a painter to deliver a pizza.

    • talismansa on 17/07/2014 - 20:17
      +3

      You're forced to trial their app, brand name awareness, deal will probably go viral (which it has since it's on ozbargains) and they have more people downloading their app than there are tubs of ice cream. There are probably more subtle advertising benefits.

      Plus Messina probably shoulders part of the costs as they're also featured in this deal.

    • gilbarc on 17/07/2014 - 20:56
      +3

      It gets you to install the app. Then next time you need a taxi, you remember "oh yeah, I installed that uber app didn't I… Maybe I'll give it a try."

    THE INSIDE SCOOP

    • Ice Cream will be available on Friday, July 18th.
    • To request, choose the Ice Cream option in the app. If a vehicle is available, you’ll be enjoying your desserts in minutes.
    • No cash needed—your order will be billed to your Uber account.
  • squaredonut on 18/07/2014 - 06:14

    So it's $20 credit, but how much does the ice cream cost and how much does the transportation cost? Or is the ice cream free if you use their service?

    • MasterNoob on 18/07/2014 - 09:35

      Ice cream $0
      Transportation costs $20

    • d3ft on 18/07/2014 - 09:37

      It's $20 for a 500ml tub delivered. If you're a new member you get $20 credit, which you can use towards buying ice cream or a ride. It's not rocket science.

  • bluedufflecoat on 18/07/2014 - 08:24

    what does this mean?

    Melbourne 11 AM - 5 PM $20 ( + $15 for each additional piece) for 1 // 500gram tub

    Can you get two tubs for $35? I have $40 credit on my account.

  • CyberMurning on 18/07/2014 - 09:21

    when i tried to put the code it says new user promo is already applied to your account.
    ???

    • bargainhunter8888 on 18/07/2014 - 09:38

      Did you use another code before? I used the $40 credit code before so I just signed up for another account to get free ice cream

      • tinx on 18/07/2014 - 10:12

        where is this $40 credit code ?

      Do you reckon that will include Newtown?

      • PeeDee on 18/07/2014 - 10:07

        Google if Newtown is part of the CBD. Otherwise it is up to their discretion how far they'll go.

  • ELH05 on 18/07/2014 - 10:08

    Yeah I doubt it's going to be delivered to outer suburbs. I live 60kms from Perth .CBD and the app says no cars in my area.

  • [Deactivated] on 18/07/2014 - 10:15

    This might be the silliest question - the Icecream icon isn't in my Uber app - does it only show up when the deal starts
    (have checked App Store and my Uber app is completely up to date)

    • pride on 18/07/2014 - 10:28

      yes it only starts at 11am

      • INFIDEL on 18/07/2014 - 11:04

  • brett-au on 18/07/2014 - 10:33

    So. Wait until 11am. Sign up. Tell them where you are. Book a car & icecream. Cost is $20. Account has $20 credit in it from signing up. Hope that they will come to the area that I'm in. Stand out the front and collect slightly melted icecream.

    Did I miss anything here? My cold is making this harder to understand than normal. Icecream will fix that.

  • gsrt22 on 18/07/2014 - 10:46

    applied the code to my existing account, didnt work. says code is only for new users

    • CyberMurning on 18/07/2014 - 10:49

      probably you have applied some new users code previously. do you have some credit $? $40 or 20 already?
      if you are existing account but never put any code this will work
