There is this new KFC promotion challenge..
Free Fried Chicken if you are not served in 60 seconds..
The queue was rather long that day and I was wonder what happen to the challenge......
There is a stop watch at the counter .. and some ppl use it...
After 60 secconds and trigger the alarm.. Tit Tit Tit Tit Tit..
but the KFC server was still in no hurry ......
We waited for 15 mins.. finally it is our turn...
my friend ask the waiter .. are you ready? As he wanted to start the stop watch...
the guy told us that .. it has not implemented yet....
my friend said ......WHAT? NOT IMPLEMENTED YET? it coudn't be...
Rather not to repeat the Kentucky Fight Customer saga....
I told him .. aiye nevermind le..
next time ... next time .. they need to train for it .....
The queue now is 30 mins of waiting time...
We shall be back .. to check it out.......
READY, GET SET, GO...
Last time got one fast food outlet tried to do this.
ReplyDeleteBut then, come lunch hour, they said the system not on for the period.
Of course la... otherwise, free food left and right!
i think it's the fast food leader that started this thing long long time ago, and quite successful.. because i think they are always fast and 60 seconds is just common.. whereas for KFC, they used to be so slow taking like 3 minutes, i really wonder if they can make it within 60 seconds, haha!!
DeleteWhy must do this gimmick?
ReplyDeleteTrain staff to be more efficient better. And smile more.
marketing gimmicks lah.. just put that sign and stopwatch there but not implementing.. rubbish lah~~
DeleteKFC and their marketing strategy... it sucks every time, without fail!
DeleteI haven't been to KFC for so long oredi...
ReplyDeletei also have not been to KFC for a very long time already..
DeleteKF challenged SK for this 'KFC saga'. And I'm waiting till this year end to see the result :D
DeleteWho will stand strong in the end? Kekeke~
KFC likes to launch program that they are not ready and count for it.. first was the voucher thing, then the I-City, and now 60 seconds.. frankly speaking, I couldn't be bothered on their promo, I only go to certain KFC anyway..
ReplyDeleteIt's like the promotion that Pizza Hut had long long time ago! Though, I haven't eaten KFC since I was in primary school!
ReplyDeleteI like their chickens but I dislike their service level. They are awfully slow and I don't understand why. I think they should consider hiring a new operation manager from McD. =D
ReplyDelete30 minutes!!!! I would rather not eat! No way am I going to queue there for that long...and the chicken is so fat and oily...and at some outlets, the meat is like jelly like it has not been properly defrosted before frying. I'd rather go to the good ol' coffee shop anytime - cheaper and nicer!
ReplyDeleteThis scene is very common at KL Sentral's KFC, the wait can easily be more than 30mins, I've tried once almost 50minutes!!!!
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha.... Better call KFC - Kentucky Fighting Chicken!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletenot implemented yet woh, then why put that stopwatch there?? making fool of themselves again and again!!
DeleteI seldom eat KFC now as I found many outlets sell smelly chicken as if the chicken didn't take any baths!
ReplyDeletehave not eated KFC since that "voucher invalidated in 4 hours" and "kungfu fighting" incidents..
DeleteAt one time Old Town White Kopi lost its popularity after Pappa Rich opened. OTWC got damn slow snail service so they offered the same Free makan if they delivered late.
ReplyDeleteThey had to remove the FREE ads as they lost and rugi kuat! Blergh!!!!
well, i think their own marketing spoiled their own image!!
Deletei'm a fan of kfc's current flaming crispy chicken, the one that has crunchy cereal coated on the skin. i prefer it compared to hot and spicy :D
ReplyDeletetheir staff always take their sweet time when preparing our order, HATE!
ReplyDeleteNot yet implement but put the timer on counter for what? Rehearsal ar?
ReplyDeleteBTW...they really dare to put 60 seconds hor...I think they will lose many chickens!
talk cock lah.. not implemented then why the hell put that stopwatch there?? don't dare to take the challenge most probably..
ReplyDeletei've checked their facebook, they just posted about this 60second thing 3 hours ago.. so maybe tomorrow you can go and try again.. if they still say it's not implemented yet, show them the proof and insist to be served in 60 seconds..
ReplyDeletei really curious if they are able to make it, cos they are all the time taking their own sweet time to serve, one customer in average spend 5 minutes at the counter.. and the queuing time is average 20 minutes..
ReplyDeleteyou check again for us whether you got free chicken?? i have already banned them since the "voucher invalidated within 4 hour" and "chicken fighting" incidents, and will never stepped into any outlet at least for this year, hahaha~~
ReplyDeleteChickened out last minute.. hahaha..
ReplyDeletehahahahaha this is freakin fake ... why do they have to put it there when they arent ready yet... oh so they are still practicing... tsk tsk tsk ... but i do enjoy KFC all the time... I <3 KFC
ReplyDeleteso many bad stuff bout KFC. i dont think i ever walk in again.. haha

Haha!! What a joke!!! They can say not implemented when it suits them LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnyway with the way they work, sure fail lah this! : D
ReplyDeleteMaybe they should make it 5 minutes lah, not 60 seconds! Hahaha
ReplyDeleteIf not, rugi besar!!!! LMAO
ReplyDeleteThis challenge reminds me of McD and their similar challenge. Haha.
