    I also spent hours a day, days on end entering the competition and knew all the answers off by heart. Also my three kids knew the answers too. What is the probability of turning 3 matching cards in reality?

    This just seems really dodgy and con-like, though they have only conned people of time it's still wrong. I only played it for a bit before giving up, but the principle of advertising it as all these prizes available worth 500k total blah blah then giving only 11 away seems very misleading! Oh well I think their advertising has backfired anyway.

    Wasn't it another 'LiveSearch' attached promotion? I just clicked onto it & you can go through to the final section, but not get to the scratch card bit. Live Search is underneath it.

    I thought loads won on these tho - never me but didnt hundreds win the VV and the cameras?

    Have they done other comps?

    My family were always sighing at me as I was always having a sneeky go!!

    The whole thing smells of poo!!

    I wish Id flushed the website out of mind and used my free time to enter real comps!

    So I would like to say thank you to Glamour!! I was very lucky!! The comp was legit and loads of us won - keep believing - not every co is like Andrex!!!:mad: :mad: :mad:

  • That is awful! I didn't play the game (new to all this comping) but I too would be very annoyed if I'd spent time aiming for those many prizes to find out only a tiny amount were won!

    This could end up biting Andrex on the bum if they publicised it like the infamous Hoover Free Flights promotion.

    This is terrible!! I also entered this comp many times with(of course) no luck! There should be a complaint made to someone other than them. Do they honestly think they could hide the missing 900 prizes by silencing anyone that complains with a £5/£10 gift voucher?
