Uber India — promo codes don't work

Address:	Mysore, Karnataka
Website:	www.uber.com/en-IN

Hi,

I have been regularly using uber service in mysore and hence i got a sms that they are giving 75% discount on rides till feb18.

I tried using the code on feb 14th and the app displayed an error stating the code is invalid.

Why does the company send promo codes if they dont work. This is just another gimmick of the company to lure customers to use their cab and cheat them when we actually want to use the service.

Since we will be in a hurry when booking the cab, we tend to ignore it and use without discount. But this is scam as they just don't deliver what they promise.

Attaching images of the message and the error when used in my app.
