Thanks to grumps, for all invalid claims please call 1800 308 388 and explain your situation. They should escalate the claim.

Greetings everyone, a friend of mine found this great deal last night in the first choice catalogue.

Purchase 2 Cases of Heineken or Heineken 3 beer in one transaction from First Choice Liquor or Vintage Cellars and get the newly released UE Megaboom 3!

When you add up the cost of the cases, the cheapest current deal you can seem to get Heineken 3 Cases are from Dan's for $39.90 each which you can then price match at First Choice, netting $79.80 in total and $179.80 for the whole bundle which is a great price for the speaker itself.

Heineken cases currently seem to be around $44.95 each at most stores. Please make sure you check around and price match at First Choice before you buy!!

Closing date to purchase the beer is 15/11/18 and closing date for entering the submission is 22/11/18.

There are 7,590 speakers available for purchase in the promotion.

There is a $1.50 admin fee mentioned in the FAQ:

How much do I pay for delivery?
The $100 (plus $1.50 admin fee) offer includes delivery by mail.

As always, enjoy!

      I rang Lion again and they said forward your "please allow up to 10 days for approval" email to [email protected] and mention how long you've been waiting and all that and they should sort you out in the next day or so. Unbelievably shit promo management. I fking hate that Furfys owned by the same company!

    My brother bought 2 x Heineken from First Choice on the 03/10/18. Submitted just about 15mins later. Yesterday 14/10/18 emailed Lion Promo that he haven't received any replies yet. Now 15/10/18 (24+ hours later) still haven't received any replies…. :(

    • tonydav on 16/10/2018 - 09:33

      Did he submit the order receipt or the invoice? The invoice is attached to the despatch notification and this is what is required. If he didn't receive it get him to call First Choice customer service. They were very helpful and immediately sent me a copy which was accepted for my claim.

  • tonydav on 16/10/2018 - 09:32

    Woohoo. Finally got my approval. After resubmitting etc.

      Damn, you have exerted $380 worth of wasted typing time, worrying time, sleepless nights and mental exhaustion to buy a $300 speaker for $191.50. At least the free beer will take some of the pain away so not a total loss.

      What! May as well say you couldn’t choose!

  • MicMac on 16/10/2018 - 15:51

    Hooray, On the way!!

    Bought two cases late Saturday morning and submitted my details, with the receipt uploaded, when I got home.
    Received auto confirmation of my claim within the hour. Figured nothing else was going to happen on the weekend.

    Happy to report received approval email earlier this arvo and have followed the prompts and filled in the payment details a short time ago.
    Again got an auto confirmation email that payment has been processed.

    Will report back when it's delivered (to the ACT), to give youse an idea of their processing time.

    Cheers

    ps - as I noted in an earlier posting - If you check out the OPs header at the top it shows: secure.promosite.com.au (6098 clicks)- this was the number of clicks to the claim site as at 3:45pm today.
    If each of these clicks have resulted in a claim being submitted I guessing that there are about 1,500 Speakers still to be allocated to new claims.

  • Jugg.Judy on 16/10/2018 - 16:07

    • Bin Chicken on 16/10/2018 - 23:05

      Finally got mine too. A friend also confirmed they got the email at the same time. I think they might have just batch accepted a ton of requests, so I'd be quick to order.

  • dreamscene on 17/10/2018 - 00:35

    Anyone successfully purchased the speaker and game enough to experiment with resubmitted the same Invoice but a different name and address for a possible 2nd purchase? :-)

    • Bin Chicken on 17/10/2018 - 00:47

      Pretty sure the receipt/invoice number will be what will prevent that. They already have checks to prevent the same address, I imagine the same goes for receipt/invoice number.

  • aussietivoman on 21/10/2018 - 20:28
    +1

    Note if you claim using an online order it appears that the address you make the claim at must exactly match the address you had the online order delivered to.

    Also when they send the speaker, they will only send it to the address you registered when you claimed.

    That and the receipt vs invoice number I think explains some of the rejections.

    What moron decided it was a good idea to reject applications without giving a clear explanation of why?

  • Killua27 on 24/10/2018 - 19:55

    • Rhys96 on 24/10/2018 - 21:38
      +1

      I would say you probably could! Might be worth waiting for the speaker if you can, I wouldn't want to risk something happening and the speaker being refunded or something. But I did take the Heineken back after and swapped it out for some better beers, so you could always do that if you want!

  • Anurag Kumar on 25/10/2018 - 10:50

      still waiting buddy. I've asked people to respond above if they have.

      If people had their claims approved and paid for in the first few days of the promotion, deliveries of the speakers should start happening by early November.

      That being said though, this promotion has been a cock-up thus far and the promoter has been unable to keep to it's own schedule. We'll see how it goes.

      • KBZ on 25/10/2018 - 14:50

    When you purchase online how long does it take to receive the invoice?

    Do they email you the invoice or does it come attached when you pick up the order?

So if that's the case then + another week after receiving said tracking number. They can't do anything right. sigh saw some JBL deals without getting a beer and it makes me regret jumping in on this.

          And if you read the comments there, a Sony SRXS can be had for 112.

          I also read really really late that the UE Megaboom 3 doesn't have AUX while JBL has. I mean that's a cheap option to use it as a speaker for the tv when watching movies/playing games. I know it's my fault I purchased it but this waiting makes it more painful.
