Yep, also on Telstra. Telstra mobile is fine though.
Wonder if they accept receipts from the Woolworths Rewards app …
Rewards app receipts shouldn't be a problem. There is a share feature in there you can use to get a PDF. I've successfully claimed a similar offer from Mutti in the past with these gift cards.
Ohhh didn't know that! I just screenshot it and sent it over. Apparently won $5 so yay free chocolate
They accepted my screenshot as I received my $5 gift card today
It's not exactly guaranteed if you are 90,001st or later.
Great success! Ten entries for me and the better half:
7x $5
1x $10
2x $50
Wooooooooooo
Did you have each one in separate receipt?
you need to have a separate receipt for each product you purchase. see T & C.
Just entered my first one and won $100. Thanks so much OPs.
5x$5. Oh well. Free chocolate. Thanks OP.
How are you guys, getting the website to work ?
Website doesn’t work for me either
Can I use the same name/phone/numbers for all entries or should I mix it up a bit?
Can enter up to 5 times, I just entered twice using same details, just 2 receipts.
How long did it take for the Woolworths gift card email to come through?
I’m wondering the same.
Everyone keep saying they got money, but the way I see it, it’s all words until I see the gift card. Don’t get me wrong, I already bought 5 and also “won” $25 all in. But I’m keeping my receipts and holding off consuming the chocolates until the gift cards come through. Will get refund if things don’t pan out.
Woolies and Coles stopped doing change of mind return for about an year.
@naru6705: Is that right? I suppose I would have argue misleading conduct if the gift cards failed to be delivered, since Woolies is partnering with Lindt to provide the gift cards (buy chocolate from Woolies, get Woolies gift card). I'm probably overthinking it.
@naru6705: I have returned a couple of items since last October with no issues. Both Coles & Woolies.
I got mine today (submitted on Wednesday)
is the website down at the moment? anyone having same issue?
I was able to do it just now and got $5.
Thanks 🙏
I can’t get the website to open on my desktop or mobile. How annoying.
I just channeled my inner-Broden at Crows Nest by putting 15 individual purchases through the self-serve checkout. Incidentally products were best before 31 Jul 22 and 30 Nov 22.
Claim results;
13 * $5
1 * $10
1 * $100
so $175 GC for an investment of $75 plus 15 bags of free chocolate.
For some reason got 10 times EDR points on each purchase so earnt 900 points (15 * 60) plus the system got confused and awarded me 2 lots of $10 and has now set my points balance to zero when it should probably be minus several hundred.
I won $5, $10, then $100… I feel like there's going to be a catch. 🤔
4 days and not even an email 🙄
4 of my claims got denied although they were in 5 separate transactions and receipts :(
Will be returning them to Woolies, hopefully no issues there …
Lindt staff were just lazy, they didn't check each receipt properly but no use arguing with them.
Shame, they are nice choccies …
What did it say when they were denied?
Duplicate transaction
Reason: This receipt has already been used and is a duplicate As per terms and conditions of this promotion. (a) only one (1) entry permitted per transaction regardless of how many packs of Lindt Caramel squares purchased in that transaction in excess of one (1)
Ah, okay.
@Altashi: same for me ……. they didn't check the rewards points …… each is different so different receipts, seems a problem if all you have is chocolate on receipt as they look the same unless you check details ……
Damn. I got the same thing. I did double check that I didn't upload the same receipt twice, but I assume I must have still messed it up.
No you probably did not mess up. Many people have received that message in error. Complain to [email protected] and they will review your entry.
Thanks. Yeah I sent them an email yesterday with a copy of my unique receipts. I assume they probably have a backlog of complaints from OzBargain people.
I have’t got emails yet, but just in case, you guys reckon fair trading would do something?
Here is the link to their facebook post, specifically for this promotion: https://fb.watch/b4z7pGGkAF/
Comment under it saying they're not honouring their terms
Hope it’s not going to become like the BIC promotion.
Just wondering….is this CLOSED because there are no more prizes available? Seems the date of promotion is still much longer, until the end of February.
Website is still up but would expect meetings are taking place at Lindt to work out how they are going to extricate themselves from this mess.
Okay, thank you. I hadn't purchased full 5x yet, so I will definitely plan NOT to think of buying any more. Looks like a real mess, from the above.
I'm not sure why marked closed when definitely still working .
coz they will deny everything you submitted. Don't waste your money or time on this.
Well, it's like they've exceeded their 90,000 redemption limit, based on the number of rejection emails people have been receiving after entering.
Mods, if this is still going to be up, can you like put a note on regarding alot of people receiving declined claims? (as a warning to others before they proceed)
At least you guys are getting emails from them. I got nothing, like it just went into a blackhole.
I think some of those that lodged on the 9th have received emails .
Most of us went on the 10th and no emails .
yeah…
Yeah, it is probably finished already…
Entries into the promotion open on 01/02/2022 and close 11:59pm AEDST on 28/02/2022 or once ninety thousand (90,000) entries have been received, whichever is first (“Promotional Period”).
Scored 4 x $5, and a $50 g/c. Thanks OP.
Did you receive the e-gift cards after one day of entering competition details?
When I said scored giftcards, that meant, won them. But not anymore, now I have lost them, just like so many others. They have now sent the first two emails saying I didn't follow T&Cs, what a load of bull. No doubt, my 3 remaining entries, will get the same email. What a dishonest and poor manner this comp is being run. So disappointed.
I like this comp, won $100, $5,$5,$5,$5
See the comments on the Woolworths post. They aren't paying out a lot of entries purchased after the 9th. People getting rejection emails instead of e-gift cards.
I would stop submitting (and use other personal info) if the 1st won is $100. The bastard cant deny a single claim.
According to a Facebook post, someone's single entry, single receipt submission was denied. I think there is a third party PR company responsible for the validation of entries. They could be up to mischief with the $850,000 worth of gift cards they are supposed to be awarding….
I won $5, hubby won $50, will upvote if they pay out. Thank you for posting.
Just received an email that my claim was denied. What absolute rubbish.
I got two of those emails today also :(
All the packets of these things that I’ve seen for sale in Woolworths have use by dates within the next month. Maybe this competition is a way to get rid of old stock.
Yep not worth $5-$8 retail price.
Just entered now and won a $5 gift card (to be delivered in the next few days), so still working.
Haven’t gotten my fiver yet
Won a $10 card. We'll see if it shows up.
Got a $5 but will wait and see. Unfortunately, I bought 3 under the same receipt but at least the chocolate is pretty good so it'll be consumed quickly.
2 x $5. Am feeling in a fighting mood…will take this to fair trading if we all dont get our vouchers
anybody have a phone number for them ….. seems all contact is fill in web form and well get back to you …………….maybe ………..
they declined 3 of my receipts …… means those packets cost $60kg for caramel chocolate …..
Hello,
From what email address are you receiving your responses for your entries please ?
I have yet to receive any responses. Is this the same with others?
Yes.
Same here, no response. It has been a week…waiting on 4 x $5.
$5… thx
Just got the claim denied email, no reason, just that I didn’t meet the terms and the promoter can deny the claim at their sole discretion.
If that is truely possible there must be something the ombudsman or ACCC can do, it is essentially a scam.
Exactly. Persuade everyone to buy chocolate and deny all claims!!
Everyone should lodge with ACCC
I think good idea, companies shouldn't be able to get away with scams like this.
Maybe a tip-off or two to the news channels 🤣, I dunno.
my claim have been rejected reason: reprinted duplicate receipt due to woolies self checkout have no docket roll left at time of purchase. its reprinted because they need to get a new roll to the checkout machine
Im now in all boil blood to shoot them back via support to validate back my claim. denied by this is ridiculous! all in for complaint to whoever watchdog to this promoter, so ACCC then, will be in touch
I got two of them today, same content, so disappointed :(
Just got claim denied on my one and only genuine claim.
I got denied on all 5 of my claims :/
Even though I did everything correctly.
Have emailed them to follow up but don't like my chances especially seeing similar things above from others :/
What a dodgy promotion! Those shonky ppl have denied all my claims despite doing everything as per their own t & c. They gave no reasons.
I can't recall any other promotion being so dodgy. Lindt needs to be ashamed of their dodgy behaviour.
I will follow up.
Just received an email: “Unfortunately, Your claim
has been denied“
Reason: The Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual who the Promoter has reason to believe has breached any of the Terms and Conditions.
Not impressed. It was a legitimate entry. Entered 11/02/22 😠
Sounds like they are sending the same email to most, I got 2 of them today :(
I got my rejection saying the receipt had no date or receipt number. Which as you can imagine it actually has!
So I emailed back and I got an approval email but no gift card yet. Says it may take up to 7 days WTF
submitted on 9 still haven't receive anything
me too :(
Yeah, I was 10th, and nothing. Considering all of the above, I now expect no email from them or to be denied.
I emailed them a day ago chasing it, attached my 4 receipts, also no response.
I contacted them on Monday still not reply
Oof, wow, yeah, that sucks, I think most of us have been shafted on this one 🤦♂️
Check your junk folder too. Mine went there.
received last week
WARNING:
Lindt have even gone as far now as taking down the Facebook post promoting this competition, everything else on their Facebook is still as usual. That post is where so many people were complaining about the scam, and now there is nothing at all on their Facebook regarding this promo. https://www.facebook.com/LindtAustralia
My friends, talk about royally shafted!
I got 2 of them, denied win emails today, now sent them a messenger, not impressed.
Damn all my 5 claims! $25 wasted
