The Big MSE Birthday Giveaway

1. This prize draw is open to residents of the UK aged 18 years or over, except employees of the Moneysupermarket Group (including MoneySavingExpert.com), or family members of such employees. In order to take part in the prize draw, entrants must have a MoneySavingExpert.com Forum account, which is enabled for posting (those who wish to enter but who do not presently have a MoneySavingExpert.com Forum account can register for one, free of charge, at forums.moneysavingexpert.com/register.php).

2. Details of how to enter form part of the terms and conditions. It is a condition of entry that all rules are accepted as final and that the entrant agrees to abide by these rules. The decision of the Promoter is final and no correspondence will be entered into. The Promoter reserves the right to modify the Promotion at any time without prior notice.

3. 13 birthday cakes will be hidden around the https://www.moneysavingexpert.com website (the “Website”) from 12.01pm (UK-time) on Thursday 25 February 2016. We recommend refreshing your internet browser to ensure that the images appear. Each icon will be hidden in different locations across the Website. Each icon will carry a unique code. In respect of each unique code, the first MoneySavingExpert.com Forum member to post that code and name to the designated MoneySavingExpert.com Forum thread [at https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5417839 (the “Designated Thread”) will win a prize of a cheque for £100 (each a “Prize”). There are 13 Prizes to give away. The Prizes are subject to availability and may be changed by the Promoter in its absolute discretion. The Prizes are non-transferable, non-negotiable and cannot be substituted by the winner for any other prize.

4. In order to win one of the Prizes, entrants must post the unique code, which is six digits long, exactly as it appears on the birthday cake icon and the location in which it was hidden . They must be the first forum member to successfully post the correct information to the Designated Thread. The time-stamp on the MoneySavingExpert.com Forum post will be decisive as to which forum member has successfully posted first, and the Promoter’s decision will be final as to whether a given post contains the unique code exactly as it appears on the bauble icon and location in which it was hidden. Any posts which are edited or corrected at a later date will not be accepted as a valid entry.

5. The prize draw will open from 12.01pm (UK-time) on Thursday 25 February 2016. It will end once the unique code and location of the 13 birthday cake icons have been posted to the Designated Thread or at 12.00 noon on Friday 26 February 2016 (the “Closing”), any Prizes which are unclaimed by this time will be withdrawn.

6. Each winner will be contacted by the Promoter within 5 working days of the close of the giveaway via the MoneySavingExpert.com Forum’s Private Message facility. The winners will be required to respond within seven days of being contacted, confirming the payee name (to whom the cheque should be made out) and the address to which the Prize should be sent. If the winner fails to provide this information within 5 working days, the Promoter reserves the right to award that Prize to an alternative winner in accordance with these terms and conditions (i.e. to the second person to post that unique code to the Designated Thread, followed by the third, and so-on).

7. A maximum of one Prize is available per person and/or household. The Promoter reserves the right to withhold a prize or prizes if, in its fair judgement, it appears that the same person or same household has ‘won’ more than one Prize, and/or to require reasonable proof from the winner(s) in question that they are not the same person and/or do not share a household.

8. Late, incomplete, corrupt entries, or entries sent through agencies and third parties, will not be accepted. No responsibility can be accepted for lost entries. The Promoter in particular cannot accept any responsibility or liability under or in connection with the prize draw (including without limitation for delayed entries due to device or internet connectivity issues).
