### 2/5 — Reward issues with Burger King

*2026-09-01, version 12.36*

The staff at bk do not know how to use the discount code. 2 different towns , the same problem.
Meerkat and bk need to get their act together and resolve this problem

### 1/5 — Doesn’t open

*2026-08-15, version 12.35.9992*

Stuck on splash screen, have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Just won’t open, completely useless. Won’t be using Compare the Market again

### 1/5 — Can’t get past splash screen

*2026-08-15, version 12.35.9992*

After downloading the app and trying to launch it, I just see the splash screen. Nothing happens and app doesn’t load.

Tried deleting and re-installing, deleting all data manually from iPhone storage and then redownloading. Nothing fixes it, only seems to impact my phone and family can load it fine.

I’ve had the app previously, so not sure if there is some cached data somewhere causing the problem. Especially annoying as I can’t access rewards via the web so right now I’m just locked out of using anything.

Please fix this as I’m clearly not the only one facing the issue looking at other reviews.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-08-11, version 12.35.9992*

I can’t even get a quote.

### 1/5 — App is broken.

*2026-08-08, version 12.35*

Doesn’t go past splash screen

### 1/5 — Nothing happens

*2026-08-04, version 12.35*

This app just sits on the opening screen, and does nothing. No progress bar, nothing clickable, just a picture of a meerkat in a robe.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load

*2026-07-30, version 12.34*

Starts up, displays the cookie rubbish, then it stops.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-07-28, version 12.34*

Can’t open. Can’t use the rewards. Have had this app and used for years. Please fix asap.

### 1/5 — No QR codes for Cafe Nero

*2026-07-27, version 12.34*

I can’t find a way to report a problem with the app and the app support button just takes you to the website with no support. 
But the Cafe Nero rewards aren’t working. It tries to load a QR code but then comes up with an error. I saw something to say that the app needed updating on the website but the Apple App Store says it’s up to date.

### 1/5 — Latest update broken it.

*2026-07-27, version 12.34*

Unable to access the pages now it just comes up with an app error code.
