    One free pint. Depending on how many phones you have though. Or how many times you delete and redownload the app

    T & H's but on the app (for the iPhone anyway) you can just find the nearest pub and it shows you on a handy map.

    Anyone know if a screenshot of the voucher works?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Well on the actual voucher, there's a countdown timer. Bar staff have been told about this and have been warned to keep an eye out for those attempting to use screenshots. The bar staff must also write down the voucher code in a nice little booklet that Diageo gave us and unless a barman is really distracted, they'll notice the identical voucher code immediately.

    This was a great idea by budweiser. However, the promotion has been run terribly and i wonder can diageo get anything positive from it now! First their systems couldn't handle the demand and crashed their system on the first day. The temperature is also only calculated once a day and only in 4 points in ireland. The temperature for Waterford is actually taken in cork airport and is one of the coolest areas in the region! It's hard to find any good in a promotion when you're looking at a thermometer that's saying 22 degrees yet this app is telling you to wrap up and put on a jumper because it's supposedly so cold out!

    It said the other day when i checked it that it wasnt gonna be checked till 1 o clock, then when it came up it said it was checked at 12. FML (whatever that means)

    Agree with ya there Adam, they've really made a right mess of it, in the end they've come out looking bad.
