T-Mobile sim card holders only!
Win a Laptop every day until 31st December.
I have searched and can't find this one anywhere! I saw it on a leaflet from Woolworths. If you text LAPTOP to 490181 you are entered in the "Sim To Win" draw. Enter each day, for free, to be entered into the next day's draw. You'll receive a confirmation text. No charge, I checked!! :rotfl:
You can request free T-Mobile sim cards from loads of places and I've tried to link the T-Mobile site for requesting on here but this site doesn't like the url and blocks it - sorry!! Type "Free Pay As You Go Mobile Phone SIM cards - T-Mobile" and it should take you to the site.
Unfortunately, this only seems to work for "Pay-As-You-Go" sims and not contracts but if this isn't the case please let me know!
As its a daily I'll ask Gilla to add.
UPDATE - THE WONDERFUL DEMENTEDHOUSEWIFE HAS FOUND THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS ONLINE. HERE'S THE LINK AND FOR THE LAZY ONES HERE'S WHAT THEY SAY!
Fancy owning the world's slimmest notebook computer?
You're in with a chance of winning one when you buy a pay as you go phone from T-Mobile until the end of December!
Entering is easy - just buy a T-Mobile pay as you go phone online, over the phone or in selected stores, text LAPTOP to 490181 and keep your fingers crossed… there's one up for grabs every day.

I think I might be missing something somewhere, but the only link I can find on the T-mobile page is for a Macbook prize every day which needs a purchase of any new pay-as-you-go phone. So would just a sim card count?0

Thanks cheeky xx
bkclive - The link I've included in the op is for you to order a T-Mobile sim card if don't have one (and you need one to enter) as they are offering 2 free from their site. If your mobile already has a T-Mobile sim then you just text LAPTOP to 490181 every day.
We've got 4 T-Mobile phones at home and I've done it last night and this morning with each one and got confirmation texts each time, so it seems to work.0 -
