  • Works perfectly. You'll need a mobile phone, though, so that they can send you a confirmation number.

      Only 2000 voucher up for grabs , hurry up and ozbargain this :p

      • It would seem it has been…not that i have a clue what this deal is about…

      • where did you see the 2000 limit?

    • The code you need to put in is Case Sensitive.

  • You have to tag people this time?

    • +1

      No you don't.

      • It doesn't seem to be working for me

        • Did you 'like' the AEC page?

        • Yup, then i just click finish and nothing happens. Might just try tagging people and see how that goes.

        • Weird. Try another browser, maybe?

        • i had issues in safari but it worked fine in FF

        • After firefox and chrome, internet explorer finally worked for me so try that.

    It asks me who's most likely to be mistaken to be a mermaid…???

    • never mind actually read it haha.

    • Wet Hair Wanderer

  • Yeah you have to read the stuff this time and answer a question, but other than that it works fine. Glad I got in before the stampede. Thanks OP

  • Where is the app? I never could find it last time… or this time…? :/

      • Just takes me to their timeline. :(
        EDIT: seems to load fine on my phone… so I think I have something exotic blocking it on my desktop. Thanks!
        EDIT2: Doesn't work in incognito Chrome. Hm.

        • EDIT2: Doesn't work in incognito Chrome. Hm.

          works for me in incognito. Ad-block activated, just in case you were wondering.

        • maybe its a friends thing … on my 'normal' account it won't get past the start button - but I see the app…. so I created a new FB account on my junk email and I can't see the app - even though the account verified - but has 0 friends?

      • Hi
        Pls tell me how did u find out the direct link?
        Thanks

    • Ah .. check your DOB .. too young and you don't even see it. also if you have a No Follow script or Do Not Track that block FBconnect you can't run the app properly .. I just figured this out about 2:20 too late.

      • I'm >18, and I tried in Firefox, IE9 and Chrome… None of them work. Hilariously, it works on my phone, but the problem is it's impossible to select the input box to put in my verification code. :(

    This link from the last post worked better for me: https://www.facebook.com/AustralianElectoralCommission/app_3…

    You can only get one if you didn't get one last time. Nice for the people who missed out! Nice work OP!

    Such a waste of Tax Payers money, but thanks for letting us know.

    • -2

      I don't think it's a waste of taxpayers money. This just needs to go viral and be spread amongst all the enrolled-on-facebook-but-not-aec…

      • +3

        Yep total waste of money.
        Why not just give us $10? I don't use this Itunes crap.

    • -1

      Total waste of money, agreed. Luckily it was orbargained so quickly.

  • Thanks for posting!

    Thanks, work great. Just wondering what the heck is this and how does it relate to the AEC?

    • i thnik it just make sure you are not a bot and is a real person.

  • Got mine. Didn't work in Safari, but downloaded Google Chrome and it went through. No tagging necessary.

  • Whats this

    How long does it take to receive the text? It's been around 10 mins and still no text.

    • +2

      i got mine in 2 minutes on 2 numbers.

    • -1

      Some hours, still no text. :(

      • -1

        no reason to neg it because your slow….

        • The neg was more or less an accident. It just took me 10 minutes to figure out how to revoke a vote. For reference, all the people who say "just click the plus button" are almost right; move the mouse to the plus button and move the cursor 1 cm up and right to click on the "votes" button.

  • thanks

  • Thanks OP.

    I do not have an itunes account.

    I'd like to open one and let my daughter use it for her ipod. Do I just go to itunes.com.au or similar and enter the code they gave me?

    The text says to enter the code, but doesn't say where.

    • +1

    whoohooo! quick shot of adrenaline before bedtime.. Thanx! :)

    To remove yourself from the AEC text list Email Unsubscribe and your mobile number to [email protected]

    • +1

      so like subject: unsubscribe
      body: number + facebook email?

      or what?

  • Couldn't load the app for ages. Until I realised it was because I was using an American VPN/IP. Changed back to my Aussie provider and it's working.

    Cheers

  • Thank you OP!

  • Thanks got one :)

  • Does the sms unique code come straight away? its been like 5 mins.. no code

  • Who is least likely to have a penpal?

  • +4

    Wasting taxpayers money is a dick move.

    But why then does it feel sooo good to take this $10 voucher?

    It's a messed up world.

  • Just takes me to timeline sadly.

    • +1

    • they're probably getting hammered, I'm still waiting too

  • Thanks OP! Awesome deal! :)

  • got mines, looks like you have to tag someone otherwise it wont work

  • Who is least likely to be a penpal is the envelope unopener

    however still haven't received my code :<

  • Got one thanks OP.

  • code hasn't arrived yet, waiting patiently

  • +2

    Mine came immediately and I tagged no one. Maybe they're starting to get slammed.

  • No codes. No SMS. I think their Server is bombarded by OzBargain Effect

  • Didn't get my code, "It appears that you're having trouble receiving your code. Please message us via our Facebook page for assistance."
