        Not sure which idiot negged you for this comment, they should at least have the decency to add a comment to explain why. Have a plus from me as I am in the same boat.

    • talismansa on 19/06/2019 - 13:12

      So which business should the complaint be against? Ben&Jerry's or Edge?

        B&j

      • ilovefullprice on 19/06/2019 - 15:02

        Legally it would be B&J, and for B&J to complain to Edge if B&J is not happy with Edge’s service

    For anyone with no VISA yet - please do this! Email them with a picture of the receipt if you have it, and a quick paragraph including your claim ID. Took 5 minutes for them to approve both of mine!

    Address the email to both Laila and Holly here who are processing Visa's and going through escalations: [email protected]

    They quoted 48 hours but was pleasantly surprised to have a reply within 5 minutes!

      Did they send your visa or just approve the claim?

      I’ve emailed them and they approved my claim but told me 5 business days to receive visa.

      • Zazer on 15/06/2019 - 07:46

        They approved it, which I’m happy with for now! Will follow up in a week if still nothing.

    Finally picked up my Click & Collect Happy Socks from Myer yesterday that I purchased with my Ben & Jerry's Visa. Love them! Thanks B&J - https://www.myer.com.au/b/Happy%20Socks

    • Zazer on 16/06/2019 - 20:01

      not really sure why you got negged. maybe because you bought happy socks or something? more likely because you said you love them, a feeling I can assure you I do not share, this was an appalling fiasco of a promotional campaign. mine are due to come in a week but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if there's yet more issues.

      I'm glad someone's got their VISA and is happy at least.

    Emailed once,was told to wait 5 days, 5 days past, emailed them again, told to wait 5 days again, wait 5 days again..sending them for the third time, let's see what they going to say, the promo was complete joke.

    • Zazer on 17/06/2019 - 08:28

      Did you try this? Worked for me in 5 mins, had both my claims accepted.

        No, the email address you stated is totally different from their promo team email address.

    Just got a response to my resubmission (not the guys Zazer said to email):

    Thank you for your email and apologise for the delay in response.

    What an absolute farce.

      Give emailing them at the one I linked a go. Worked for me, simply reuploaded the same image and they passed it.

        I did, on Saturday. No response yet though.

  • easternculture on 17/06/2019 - 11:02

    Guys just don't bother with them

    They breached the competition and consumer act NSW.

    Complain to fair trading and ACCC

    Each legible complaint they get fined a few $100 as far as I'm aware

    • 1stOzBargainer on 17/06/2019 - 11:06

      Curious - Does that help us directly or just cause them sufficient pain to resolve the problem since fine per complaint would be more than the $14?

      • easternculture on 17/06/2019 - 11:22

        You will still end up getting your $14 but it will cost them more loss. And they deserve it for fluffing around

    • keyman on 18/06/2019 - 12:16

        I think only when you've got the cards that it's considered "working".

        I have a feeling that the reply you have doesn't promise anything and is just stalling you.

        • Zazer on 17/06/2019 - 14:42

          Well I was referring to getting my claim approved, but I do agree that they probably are just delaying. I'll let you know what happens.

        • Zazer on 21/06/2019 - 11:42

          Got them! So can confirm it works.

  • PrettyFly4WhiteGuy on 17/06/2019 - 15:19

    So… I purchased 2 "pints" at the same time, on the same receipt and submitted claims for both of them. But little did I know…

    "…As per the T&Cs if we find the entrants have shared the proof of purchase then their claim will be made invalid, and claims will be made invalid if proof of purchase is shared or the same proof of purchased is used for multiple entries regardless of how many products are on the receipt. The terms and conditions state ' If, in the Promoter's opinion, you have shared any proof of purchase with another person, your entry and the other person's entry will be invalid and neither of you will receive a Gift. "

    • Splashtash on 18/06/2019 - 09:18

      That’s such bS. So for example if I use a gift card for 2 diff receipts they could deem it unworthy….even though there is 2 people

      • Zazer on 18/06/2019 - 09:30
        +1

        No. They said that if the same proof of purchase is used for multiple entries it is invalid. Not same purchase method. So you can't use the same receipt even if it has 2 ice creams on it.

    • Zazer on 18/06/2019 - 09:30
      +1

      they did say that though, it did have to be on different receipts

      • PrettyFly4WhiteGuy on 18/06/2019 - 17:28

        Yeah.. my fault for not reading, however this means I will get NEITHER of my gift cards. Not even one.

        • bluesky on 18/06/2019 - 17:50

          Don't be despondent yet - this is where you need to write to the address given here. I got a response from Laila - and she is pleasant and helpful. (Am still waiting for the VISA, but that is OK - at least it is processed.)

          Writing to this address, you get to explain your circumstances. There is a good chance they will ignore minor technicality, and at least one, or both of your claims get honoured.
          Include the receipt with the 2 pints, and the two claims you intend it to apply to. By collating this info, it makes it clear you are not double-claiming, and you stand a good stance. Good Luck!

          • bluesky on 18/06/2019 - 21:30

            @bluesky:

    Just so frustrated with Ben & Jerry. Not just they’re late in giving out the Visa cards, but also lack of communication, explanation of what’s going on and quite bad responses when they do response.

    I was hoping to use my Visa card a few weeks back but now I can’t.

    • Poss81 on 19/06/2019 - 10:19

      They have sent out claims, just not all of them by the looks of it.

      I did my claim when I posted this up on OzBargain as did my wife, we both got our gift cards on the 6th June. Sure we had to confirm our phone number due to so many people trying to scam them and using fake numbers which slowed the whole process down. But we eventually got them!

      The saddest thing about the whole thing is they’ll probably never run a promo like this ever again. I know some people say they hated the ice cream, but I don’t! So making money for eating one of my favorite ice creams was a big win for me.

  • Ms Bargainer on 18/06/2019 - 15:24

    I messaged them on Facebook. On Friday, they said my claim has been validated and I will receive the visa card within five business days.

    • cooni on 18/06/2019 - 16:02
      +1

      Surprised you got that kind of response. I did too (yesterday) and they seemed to pass the buck instead of being able to see if a claim had been validated or not. Here's what they said to me

      Hi cooni, we're terribly sorry about this!!

      There have been many mistakes made with this promotion with our third-party provider, which has resulted in major delays in people receiving their Virtual Visa Cards.

      The fastest way to resolve this would be to email Visa directly, at [email protected]

      If you address the email to Holly & Laila, they will be able to look after your Claim as they are currently processing all Virtual Visa's and complaints.

      Ensure you include your Claim ID in the email as well.

      Please allow up to 48hours for a response.

      We hope this is resolved asap.

      Thanks, The Ben & Jerry's Herd

    We have checked your original claim and can see the mobile number does not match the requested update.
    For this reason, we cannot update the details on your claim and your claim has been deemed invalid

    • King Tightarse on 19/06/2019 - 18:48

      Did you email them and ask for the number to be updated?

        No.
        When they asked me to resubmit via the link, I replied saying that I never received the sms code.

        Then they replied as above.

        Maybe I just ignore that, & attach the receipt to the email?

And actually, they sent the VISA within 2 business days (intervening weekend days) of my contact. So they did honour the 5 days. But I did not know of it - because it was in SPAM folder.

        I check my junk/spam folder regularly and it definitely is not there. Thank you for the tip anyway.

          The response from Laila was quite helpful, even said if I have questions, to contact her again - so perhaps do that, in case it was missed out inadvertently.
