    From the press section:

    In Writing
    "M" in the word 'Marvin' should always be capitalised. When mentioning Marvin.ie, please always try and include .ie

    Correct Use: Marvin.ie
    Incorrect Use: marvin.ie

    Seems like just eat with the bonus of having takeaways offer a free meal every tenth order.

    I wonder how much extra Marvin add to the cost of the meals?

    I stopped ordering from Just eat once I realised they were charging me extra, though it's still handy for browsing.

    yeah it's much better to phone the take away;

    JustEat always have a delivery charge - sometimes quite high - even with places that normally do 'free' delivery.

    Also the specials on JustEat are not as good as the specials you get on the leaflets.

    JustEat + other web ordering services are adding inflation to the fast food market.

    Yes I do realise that but it is still one of those site names that seems like it was not focus grouped to see how it would work in the real world.

    Yeah, still not getting this code to work, before or after details have been entered.

    However, the code WSF20 will give 205 off your FIRST order with them. I used that just now. It will prompt you to fill in the email field to make it work, if you haven't already.

    Also, they will be offering 50% all weekend if the referendum is a YES vote. They say the code will be on their facebook page.

    Edit: Also, I'm in Dublin and the NIFTY50 code didn't work for me.

    I do support any Irish upstart, but the BA forum has been taken over by marvin the past week or so.

    Worth merging into one thread me thinks... just like the dominos/tesco/aldi threads.

    So it's an irish just-eat, aside from the discount, there's no good reason to use over just-eat that I can discern? Same prices same carry on just less well established and with a lesser advertising budget. Guess I can hop between the 2 following coupon codes on here, but its hard to see how it will flourish as a site, best of luck to them though being home grown and all!

    I don't love the €1.50 charge for using Paypal :pac:
    Just ordered myself also, amazing value. The money off worked against food that was already discounted in the 'Specials' part of the menu. Again, absolutely amazing value. I almost feel guilty for the price I paid.

    It is a glitch. Put in the takeaway address as your address, then when you get through to the payment screen put your actual address into the special comments box. Worked for me. Got a significant saving.

    How much was the delivery charge.

    If you paid 2 euro for delivery, 2 for tip, and .50c for card that's nearly a fiver for delivery.

    I only tip if I'm not paying a delivery charge i.e. when I phone in the order, which is what I normally do to avoid delivery and card charges
    and sometimes they give bigger portions as they don't have to pay commission to these companies.

    I only use companies juseat / marvin ect when they have a special offer on.
    Some say they are convenient, but when I phone my local they have my number and orders on screen and I just say 'same as last time' and very quickly confirm my address.

    I always tip takeaway delivery drivers- not that I order a lot of them.
    I give a minimum of 2 Euro- or 10%'ish of the order (whichever is higher).
    Easiest way is to have the total rounded up- and tell them to keep the change.

    Nope, never do if they're already charging for delivery. I'm a miserable git and clearly have a bad conscience. :pac:
