  • This is so cool. I have been following blockv who are behind this Ben and Jerry campaign for a long time. This Ben and Jerry campaign is the best use of Vatoms I've seen yet.

  • partner grabbed 2 today for free scoops so thats nice. tried to send one to me but still no code/ticket recieved..

    • Did you register under your own phone number?

      • yep. we check the number she sent it to and everything matches just never got the message and she's lost the vatom

        • +1

          You don’t get a message. It should just appear in the vatoms of the receiving account. I have sent a few around.

  • Anyone able to find the pint of ice-cream? I have only been able to find the cookie/brownie, scoop of ice-cream or sundae so far

  • Anyone else having issues redeeming wallet prizes? When I go to my local scoop shop the final step to redeem a wallet prize and go into the secondary draw is to scan the QR code (which is located on a promotional poster) I've tried twice now and both times received an error. The poor shop keeper has no idea what to do either.

    • No issues so far, just slow. After showing them what I won/want I think open the prize to scan. Once scanned it takes ages to show up and then reveal. If you are getting an error when going to scan try making sure you have camera permissions enabled for the site. My issue I had the 1st time I redeemed, should should get an access denied error I think it was.

    • The redemptions have been pretty smooth for me. The QR code scanned was on a lanyard, not the promotional poster. I think each store has its own unique QR code. IIRC below the code is the location of the store.

  • how do you find/get vAtoms ?

    • do we have to go into a Ben and Jerry's store

  • +6

    I won a years supply of ice cream!!
    Have 7 cones, 1 ice cream sunday, 1 brownie or cookie.
    Husband has 1 pinte, 5 cones and brownie or cookie.

    • How? Was it a vatom?

      • Every time u redeem a vatom u get a chance to win a years supply.

        • Ok - I have struggled with them actually scanning mine. So far they just keep giving me freebies.
          Can you take a photo of the QR code for me next time please?

          • @Qroozn: I think the QR is individual to the store, as each store has their own major prizes

  • Also won buy one get one free. As if i would buy one with 7 free individual scoops 😂

  • FYI I redeemed 2 vatoms today and no issues.

    • Ok the one account?

    • Do you know how many you can redeem in one go?

      • +1

        It says only one per person per day.

      • +1

        I redeemed multiple pints and sundaes today. No issue.

  • Does anyone have a list of participating locations, link doesn’t seem to work…

  • +5

    Whoever posted this as a deal, after they won a free year of ice cream, THANK YOU! I wouldn't have seen it otherwise. I too just won a free 52 pints!

    • Do u have to pick up all 52 at once?? How do we redeem it?

      • Once you click redeem you need to scan the QR code again in store and they give you a book with 52 individual pint vouchers

        • Ok awesome!

    • Congrats! How did u win 52 pints?

      • +2

        After redeeming a free cone, etc, the vatom turns into another picture. Click it and it will go to the major prize instant win drawer.

    Just won a years worth of ice cream too! Thanks OP! i wonder how many of these major prizes there are? 6 wins (including myself) so far from ozb. If anyone wants some of my unclaimed vatoms, just PM me your B&J Mobile number

  • +1

    Any ideas if ice cream redemption is available after promotion close 22 December? Presumably can't acquire new Vatoms after 22 December but can you redeem them after that date if within 2 weeks of date of acquisition? Can't see it in T&Cs? Anyone know?

    • Email the support team. They are usually fairly quick with a response.

    • Did you get an answer for this?

      • +2

        Yes. Head Office says it expires on 22 December sadly. T&Cs says you can only have one a day but I have managed to redeem more than 1 a day by going to different store. So go hard :)

        • So if I acquired a vatom say on the 21st Dec, it will expire on the 22nd Dec even though T&Cs says vatoms would expire within 2 weeks of acquisition?

          • +1

            @ilovefullprice: Yes that's what they told me as that's date the promotion ends. I called the helpline number and they confirmed. I was in disbelief so then spoke to store manager who called up Marketing to confirm. So both said same thing game over 22 December. Both agreed Terms and Conditions should be clearer and have passed it back to promotional dept. Then I thought may be true as once it ends there can be no second prize draw for 52 pints. I am not game enough to see if mine still exist tomorrow so going hard today. If you don't use all yours today maybe you can let me know if they still work tomorrow? Would be keen to know.

    I also just won a years worth of icecream!
    I got 3 pints and 2 sundaes unclaimed sitting in my inventory to give away.
    PM me your B&J mobile number and I'll send the vatom out to you!

    • PM'd you, thanks!

    • PM’d thanks.

    • +3

      All gone.
      Enjoy your vatoms!

  • Not won anything from this comp as there is never anything around my area.

    Ben and Jerry sent me a message just now as a "surprise" which turned out to be a buy one get one free scoop. Meh..

    • PM me your number

  • +2

    I got 3 scoops and 1 sundae unclaimed to give away. PM me your number if anyone wants one

  • so are the vatoms only able to be caught at ben and jerry locations? Those are the only locations on my map.

    • 3-5 vatoms seem to spawn in a clump at "points of interest" at random times.

      In my city, the vatom spawns I've seen have been train stations, civic gardens, etc. Always the same couple of locations; so one particular train station and not any of the others on the same line.

    • You are seeing the benjerry locations when they are closed. Vatoms only appear when the stores are open.

  • Private message me your phone number to be sent ice creams. As noted above, must be redeemed today

    • Are you sure? i think you get 2 weeks to redeem prices from date they are collected. comp ends today but prizes should still be valid until their 2 week expiry

  • PM me if you want pints cones or sundaes and can redeem them today.

  • +5

    I won the years supply of ice cream today!

    • How exciting! Have you redeemed? best you actually make sure you do as it may disappear by tomorrow as comp is over?

  • That's what I think should happen too but not what they said would happen. Would be keen to know if anyone has any left after today?

  • Tried to redeem one today but was told that it had to be redeemed by the end of comp…

    • That's not right. What if you won a major prize on the last day? I was told 2 weeks from when vatom acquired.

      • I was told by the manager that yesterday was the last day to use them. They definitely should have made this clearer

  • I went to Northbridge scoop shop today and was allowed to redeem.

    • Did the store person said it ended yesterday but they will let you redeem anyway?

      • +1

        Nope, nothing like that.

  • I tried to redeem today at Carousel and was told it is over.

    • Thanks for updating. It is rather unfair though as does say 2 weeks to redeem :(

  • +3

    I emailed B&J support to check on when the Vatoms would expired. Got a reply to say all Vatoms expiring on 5th Jan.

    Have attached the email. Feel free to use it at the store if needed :)
