  • Imagine KFC actually added error messages instead of just having people's stashes disappear.
    Server is returning 401's now guys - meaning there's an issue on their end.

  • Seems like there's major bugs every time KFC push out new prizes. Last time when the page loads to 100% it would error out. That's the same day people started getting gold buckets.

    Just opened the app and my buckets (which should have 2 days left) have disappeared.

    There goes my lunch plans! Guess I’ll try again on the way home

    • +1

      try restarting app? happened to me a few times

      edit: oh yea same problem on my end

      • +1

        Yeah logged out and back in, restarted the app. Figured it was down so I walked to my backup lunch place.

  • +1

    Yes, app has gone down again.

  • +1

    Also lockdowns in Perth last I checked, so no buckets. All my stash 9 slot are gone. Shame I claimed nothing myself in the last two days.

    • +1

      Buckets in stash will return. They wont come on the Map though.

  • +2

    All your buckets are belong to us.

  • +1

    My stash is empty atm too.

    • Based in Melbourne and can confirm that all stash is gone for me too.

  • I noticed the maps is not working too, so i'd suggest an issue with the server. I'm in a non lockdown area too.

    • Yup, server issue. Last time it went down, took 2 hours to be back. Not expecting it to be back soon now. Looks like it went off around 11:30AM AEST. It's already been 60 mins now.

  • +1

    Based in VIC, all my stash disappeared. This morning app. 9am, everything looked fine.

    Now what am I having for lunch?:(

    • Same for me.

    • the app still works if you wanna order from the standard menu, just no freebies XD

      • Yes, thats why I mention to order in morning itself and then walk in when hungry. As it is, its obvious you would redeem one prize daily. Talking about a tru OzBargainer here.

  • +1

    All my stash disappeared too :(

  • Stash gone…Had 1 Golden bucket too gone as well.

  • +3

    I've been eating KFC for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for a fortnight now.. I'm about to miss out on lunch, I'm going through severe panic and withdrawl… oh god, help me. lol

    • how do you claim prizes more than once per day?

      • +4

        accounts of father mother brother sister, uncle's pony and nephew's daughter…

    • If you go through drive thru multiple times using different accounts to get more food will the KFC staff stop you?

      • multiple KFC i think

        • At Broadmeadow in Newcastle at the only drive through only KFC, you can enter multiple orders for pickup in one go and you do it at the touch screen kiosk in your car so there are no weird looks from the staff when you input four orders to pickup all at the same time.

          • @reunig: I picked up 3 orders at the same time, no question asked no issue.

            3 ultimate boxes

            • @SnoozeAndLose: how? did you checkout 3 times and then remembered their codes and told the staff all 3 codes to pickup?

              • @Toffcuz: At my local kfc, for online orders they call out your name

              • @Toffcuz: They use your First character of your First name and last name i.e. Hello World = H.W.

                So I have 3 orders with the same initial. when you set up your account you put the same name.

  • +2

    It's back

    • go go go….

    • Already got maccas 24 nugs with bts sauce haha guess its kfc for dinner…

    • +4

      Stash is back. NO Buckets though.

    • I’m unable to checkout any orders though haha

  • +3

    anyone not in a lockdown area still see buckets?
    \

  • Are the buckets back yet?

    • +1

      Nah still can't see any.

      • I am sure there would be this one guy who went out hunting for buckets during lockdown and got caught by the Police and now it is ruined for everyone else. I have a feeling KFC might cancel this promotion completely.

  • +1

    No buckets on the Map.
    Stash is redeemable now though.

  • Can get 4 large sides for $9.95 in the app too.

    • +1

      My regular order is 15pc's and 4 sides. Lunch or dinner for the family done for under a tenner

  • Stash still empty on the iPhone. Stash works on my Android.

  • +1

    Buckets are back

    • +1

      Thank god. I was about to settle for a Lean Cuisine meal from the freezer.

    • What area are you in ? cant see any buckets here.

      • Greater melb

  • +1

    Buckets are back, but even if you're on top of one it's not registering. C'mon man, it's freezing out here! ;)

    Edit - All good. The colonel just let me flip a 15pc Bucket :)

  • Long time player, first time poster, have had either free or cheap ($2.95 regular chips with freebie) lunchtime meals for over a week now… best I have won is a ultimate box . The 15pc eludes me.

    • Yeah they seem rare now days. I remember on the first day I got 3 15pcs and stupid me let one expire. But now can’t seem to get much more than a go bucket.

      • If you got 3 on the first day (15-Jun), you could have used one each on 15-Jun, 16-Jun, 17-Jun. But I agree, we all weren;t knowing the best of the tricks to take the most benefit on day-1. Now I plan well, and ensure I redeem the best of the available prizes, always planning for the next 3 days ahead :)

    • I've got a couple. For me I needed to flip a $21 for 21pc voucher.

    • +2

      I had two Ultimate Boxes. Took the chance and flipped one. Got the 15pc Bucket.

  • +1

    The bloody thing won’t open even though I am on top of it!!

  • Nothing has been adding to my stash for a few days now from the bucket spins. Not sure if anyone else is having this issue.

    • yes, me too

    • Mine just started doing that.
      Spun up a burger and lost it.

    • Same, can't add…

  • The latest glitch gave me 4 slots and didn't register my Ultimate box redemption so I managed to get one extra for free. Best prize I managed so far is the ultimate box, am hoping to get a 15pc!

    • same my best prize so far has been a 3 piece box and free zinger stacker burger, I WANT THAT 15 PC

      • +1

        How many spins have you done? I think I have done 200 all up and my best prize is a 3 piece box.

        • Probably 15-20 max? Not many at all as not spoofing location and can only have 3 at any given time.

        • probably around 200 here aswell ahaha

    • You can get easily get 4+ slots or (3 slots + 1 hidden slot) but the app acts weirdly if you do this. In short you waste more of your time for crappier prizes if you do this.

      1) You cannot flip the coin on any prizes. So your stash will likely be filled with lower tier prizes.
      2) Prizes you redeem stay in your stash, and will only disappear once they expire.
      3) Prizes you win can only be added to an an extra slot or discarded. There is no way to replace your existing prizes for better ones.

      So you wont be getting any 15pc feed unless you spin it straight off from the bucket, also means you probably wont get any cash prizes from flipping high end food prizes.

      • I managed to flip one but didn't work on another prize. Gosh this app is extremely buggy/annoying!

        I'm able to redeem yet another ultimate box today so it's my 2nd additional free one. Can't complain!

  • +1

    Sweet just flipped an ultimate box from a 9 for $9.95 voucher.

  • -7

    I lost almost all my non-food item prizes because of this shit hole app. So (profanity) pissed off.

    • If you didn't get it legitimately, how can you be mad

      • See below

        • +1

          I also wrote code to spin buckets purely for a KFC hoodie and I wouldn't be mad if they took it away lmao

    • Anything that I actually want (including food), I claim straight away because I don't trust it from crashing and losing everything. But I do agree with the above, if you're cheating, you can't get mad

      • -7

        I can guarantee I've put more hours into my code than anyone here genuinely spinning. So I have every right to get mad.

        • +8

          lol
          So you can justify it because you've made an "investment in manhours" to cheat the system?

          It's meant to be a game of chance

          • -3

            @whitelie:

            It's meant to be a game of chance

            It still is a game of chance. I've just had more chances than the average player.

              @[Deactivated]:

              It still is a game of chance. I've just had more chances than the average player.

              Wow so entitled. You 'writing' code to play this game goes against the TOS.

              12 You must not:

                              (a)           tamper with the entry process;
              
                              (b)           engage in any conduct that may jeopardise the fair and proper conduct of the competition;
              
                • +3

                  @[Deactivated]: Isn't that what they did by taking away your prizes? This would discourage anyone coding

                • +3

                  @[Deactivated]: then stop crying when they take away your prize haha

                  • -4

                    @CodeXD: They didn't take it away, they expired because the shitty app wasn't loading lmao

              • @CodeXD: So, it's ok that https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/635355 this is OK? with over 187+ votes (no negative since posting this), but a person can't use which I assume is a GPS spoofer?

                Both have used code to locate item ID's and abuse them? Either for a discount or for free items… please explain how this isn't a double standard?

                • -1

                  @Vangelon: Typical OzBargain hypocrisy. They even upvoted that deal hahaha

                • @Vangelon: The difference is the nature of the hack. Posting a hack for EVERYONE to use vs hacking to win LIMITED prizes for themselves.

                  The hack you posted allows everyone to get cheaper kfc. Writing codes and gps spoofing takes prizes away from those who are physically on the ground playing this game like it is supposed to.

        • +1

          I can guarantee I've put more hours into my code than anyone here genuinely spinning.

          Wow you mustn't be a very good dev then.

  • -3

    Received a couple of hoodies today (emails received and responded to on 24/6 and 28/6)

    • Did you win the hoodies from a spin or a flip?

      If a flip, what was it.

      • +1

        As I've said, non-food prizes so far have only come from flipping free 15pc buckets.

    • +2

      Can you show a picture of them?

    • Have you received any emails back about the EFTPOS cards?

      • Not in the last couple of days.

        If you received a hoodie email I think that account won't get any eftpos cards as they seem to be putting an artificial limit on prizes.

        • +1

          Darn, I was lucky enough to get my first 15 pcs bucket a week ago. The coin flip glitched and I got both the EFTPOS card and Hoodie from it, but it also flipped to a Frozen drink. I'll just be happy if I receive one of them.

      • I got one asking where to send it, took over a week from initially winning it.
        If it's in your stash and you've redeemed it (ie confirmed your email), you should get it? If it's not there, then it's gone

        • I just wanted to check as the other user mentioned getting over 2 non-food prizes on an account. It's already been over a week but if I can only get one prize it would be nice to choose.

          Regardless I'm just happy that I might get something.

  • The new prizes are not added to the stack and old prizes couldn't be replaced .. Same problem with anyone else? .. WEIRD BUGGY APP..

    • Heaps of bugs that's for sure.
      My stash it about 13 places long. I think someone said they had 30 lol

  • +5

    Anyone is able to redeem the ultimate box today? Cheers

    • +4

      No can't redeem. Showing full price in checkout.

      • Exactly!!!

        • Yes happened to me, was embarrassing
