You can grab a copy of FIFA 17 today for FREE, thanks to UBER apparently.
FIFA 17 is released today in North America, but us Brits have to wait until this Thursday to own and play the incredible new FIFA release.
Thankfully though there is a way to get your hands on the game TODAY and pay absolutely nothing!
Between 11am and 2pm, Uber will be delivering FREE copies of FIFA 17 on the Xbox One to users living in London and Manchester.
Uber has also said that a few fans might also recieve some of other EA SPORTS titles, such as Madden NFL 17 and NHL 17 for the Xbox One.
If that wasn't enough they teased that some fans might even score a a brand new Xbox One S console.
Who will be delivering these extra special packages also seems to be a bit of a mystery, with Uber suggesting that "some players from your hometown team" may be "on hand for the ultimate assist on deliveries."
All you need to do to grab yourself a copy is this:
Open the app between 11am - 2pm in London (Zones 1/2 ONLY) and Manchester tomorrow, September 27.
Tap on the Profile icon on the left and select the Promotions menu.
Enter the promo code GAMEONUK to unlock the special 'GAME ON' option.
Receive your free copy of FIFA 17 on Xbox One.
As expected Uber has warned that (understandably) demand will be HIGH and availability limited. In addition they've advised that this offer is provided for a limited time on a first-come, first serve basis.
As per the Uber website, it only is applicable for Monday and Tuesday, so it now expired. Please see below:
To get in on the action: Enter your city’s promo code listed below, then tap GAME ON when it appears in your app on Monday, September 26 or Tuesday, September 27. With just the touch of a button, you could be hitting the pitch in no time.

Managed to grab one. Didn't meet any footie players, and no console. The guy I spoke to said he had 5 copies to give away.. but no idea on the number of drivers!

More like pot luck and depends on your location i think.
On your Uber app, click top left then click promotions.
You then need to add the code GAMEONUK.
Once done, you should see a "GAME ON" option available at the bottom on the front page of the app, where you see the map.
Move the slider at the bottom along to the "GAME ON" option.

It's along the bottom where you chose your cab option, slide the slider across then press on game on to request a copy, but no chance as demand is high!

Yeah the driver probably took one home and put the rest on eBay. I'd report it to uber. Chances are you were being fobbed off so he could keep the copy

I don't have that football icon, so maybe I'm just outside the right zone for london

Do you just stay on the requesting page until it's available?

Based in Manchester City Centre, just near Deansgate.
Clicked on the 'Game On' button - went to requesting. After about 4-5 minutes it swapped to a Confirmed driver.
Hope you guys manage to win one :smiley:

Dang Paypal has taken multiple payments of £1 from me
bargain76 to slliw
27 Sep 16#34
WHAT????
diddles51 to slliw
27 Sep 16#38
It's probably just a pending payment they do the same when you book a taxi with a free promo code
bargain76
27 Sep 16#35
Are they charging us for a Request???
vishaljh
27 Sep 16#36
I have made £10 requests already. Its crazy if they charge us for each request
slliw
27 Sep 16#37
Everytime u do a request there is a check to see if you have funds, so there is a £1 charge. It will probably go back into your account after a while
bargain76 to slliw
27 Sep 16#39
Probably ? lol

Not me either and I am in angel at the moment. I got charged £1 in by PayPal because I got an error saying my PayPal was not working and then when I connected again it charged me. Uber UK on Twitter told me it is to verify the payment method but then the money does not actually leave the account and the charge is voided.

You did not miss much to be honest. Kept saying high demand etc and would not work all the way before 11am till the end of the competition. Loads of hype and then nothing.
