I feel that KFC mislead the customers with the false advertisement. I understand that, because of the "overwhelming demand" they denied to give the offer......In this economy KFC should NOT be surprised that the demand is overwhelming, in fact it should have been prepared for the big crowd!

What made me report this is, I went to the local KFC 5!days AFTER the promotion day, and they were still unable to offer the free meal......however the meal was available ! WHY?

To have customers fill the form with all their personal information, such as address, name, etc.so that they can sell it? Easy way to get millions's information, by giving away a $3.99 worth meal.

AND...the customers go to the KFC, finding out that the meal is not available, so this way they are "forced" to spend their money there.

Not me! Even when I went there with my kids and they were extremly disappointed, I was still able to resist, as I was very disappointed and decided NOT to go there anymore. Hope others did the same.

Very disgraceful promotion!
I believe the whole issue is worth a report to the Consumer Protection Division of the office of the Attorney General in KY, AND call for an action suit.

"What made me report this is, I went to the local KFC 5!days AFTER the promotion day, and they were still unable to offer the free meal......however the meal was available ! WHY?"

So you went there 5 days AFTER the end of the promotion.
Did you really expect them to give you a free meal?
"however the meal was available ! WHY?"
Promotion over is why.
It sounds like you did not even go on the day of the promotion.

You remind me of the people that come late to an event and expect to get to be in front of the people that got there early.

They didn't give you a rain check?

AUTHOR: Edgeman - (U.S.A.)

The local KFC restaurants were giving out rain checks on the coupons and the manager at one told me they intend to honor their commitment. Did your local establishment not give you a rain check?
