    I GOT IT, I'm at sydney CBD… 5hrs of constantly requesting and I get a guy who is on foot. He had a sports bag FULL of tubs. I got a beanie too. Keep trying, everyone! 45min left.

    Fail

  • ffs

    I finally got through and got it sent to a mate in Bris CBD.
    Stupid idiotic driver asked him to pay even though i had the promo code sitting in my account.

    i

    hate

    uber

    • My delivery guy said 'how many would you like it's $20 for one or $15 for two' I mentioned I had the code he said "oh no problems we can't see if it's free or not. If you have the code, you're good to go". And indeed, I got an invoice for $0.

      Don't hate the player…

  • can't get through at all. can't get verfication sms.

  • negging…

    well, as with all things, if its free, posted on this site, you pretty much expect a it not to be easy…

    This is quite a fail for them, I can't imagine how many people would have signed up for their first experience with Uber only to find

    • They have to hand over their credit card details
    • They probably don't actually deliver to their area (since CBD only wasn't properly advertised)
    • Even if you're in the CBD, the app keeps saying 'requesting' and rejecting you, which makes you wonder how it will work if you actually needed transport (of course it would be different, but for new users these impressions count)

    Can't really be achieving their marketing outcomes from this…

    FAIL UBER with all these pre auth charges

  • I got mine delivered about 1pm in Adelaide CBD. also received $80 uber credit and a cool tin of uber mints!

  • +1

    I put in the request for mobile verification at 11am but my mobile didn't get verified until 5.15pm. Too late for icecream. Uberfail

    Just got this email:

    We did our level best to deliver ice cream to everybody who requested it, but many foodies like yourself were left unsatisfied today. 

    Nothing can really replace a taste of Gelato Messina’s Salted Caramel, but we have arranged a $20 Uber voucher for your inconvenience. Maybe a trip to your nearest Gelato Messina store?

      They are a crock of shit. I was on it from the moment it started, they did not attempt at all to go near where my office building was, sure it wasn't the prime center, but why quote CBD if you're not going to fulfil all aspects of it, if they put a disclaimer out then fine, had some friends who got 3 boxes each, because they were just circling the same area and street.

    • I would have given it a go to get the $20 voucher!

  • +1

    Attempted the request at midday. Only received text after 5pm saying try again later…

    • +1

      Similar with me, I only got the verification text after 5. Thanks Uber for not even giving me a chance.

  • +2

    Have received 36 text messages in the past ten minutes (it's 7:34pm) telling me there are no ice-cream drivers in my area. Well gee, thanks for letting me know now, uber!

  • +3

    This deal was a UBERFAIL.

    • +4

      just tried that promo code and got $1000 credit

  • +1

    Should we change our cc/paypal details to stop them from having access?

  • deleting my account after i receive my chargeback

  • Whaat? They charged me $15. This happen to anyone else?
