    It came from this facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/10ways?fref=ts

    What a useless promotion. Why don't they just do what Burger King do and just allow people to download vouchers online.

    Why did they pull the plug on it?
  • Lots of misuse of the vouchers, people printing hundreds and sharing them around according to threads on other forums.

    Some KFC's have put signs up saying they aren't valid now.

    Shame as I haven't had chance to use mine yet, was keeping it for Saturday lunchtime!

    That's a shame - i was hoping to use mine on Saturday too!

    Won't bother.
  • From what I read it seems that no one was checking the codes as the vouchers were being handed over and especially not the ones that people had on their phones. KFC suddenly realised they were in over their heads so pulled the game and told the stores to refuse any more vouchers.

    There was also a user on here that had bypassed the webcam and wrote a code which went straight to the voucher and he/she was offering to pm or email anyone a voucher.

    The user also did the same on hduk so goodness knows how many vouchers they printed/emailed

    Unfortunately its people like that, that spoil these things for the rest of us.
