Iain Lucas, hoped to spend his Saturday night enjoying the takeaway with his family. The 35-year-old ordered from his local, May Wah, in Blackpool - a takeaway he says he's been to many times before.

Using the Foodhub app, Iain says he placed an order with the Devonshire Road business of a Munchy Box at 8.24pm on Saturday, October 1.

Moments later he says he received a notification confirming that May Wah had accepted his order.
