I Won an Ipod Nano I think?

I think that I have won an Ipod Nano thanks to Cherw1981. :beer: :j:beer: :j
But I would be grateful for you guy's advice please.
At the end of August I received an email saying that I had won the Playback Cult TV July Competition and my prize was an Ipod Nano.
They asked me for the delivery address that I wanted it sent to and I was going to post that I had won it when it arrived and thank the OP.
The thing is, it is nearly 2 weeks since I emailed them back, but I haven't received any sort of confirmation from them or the prize.
Now please bear in mind that I have never won anything this big before, so I could well be overreacting, so what I wanted to ask you MSE's was:
Has anyone had dealings with these people before? Are they Ok?
How long does it usually take for people to send prizes?
As I said above, I am probably just overreacting, but I am just excited about the prize. But I did ask for them to just acknowledge that they had got my delivery address and I have heard nothing from them.
My name (forum name up at Playback) did go go up on the site as a prize winner for a couple of days but now it had been replaced with the August winners names.
I just wanted to ask the more experienced compers how long bigger prizes take to come and for any advice as I have only won little prizes before that have quickly sent through the post.
I would be grateful if any one could advise me please? As I am worrying a little bit, which could be over nothing.
And thanks again to Cherw1981. :A :T

Thanks for coming back to me Hayleyw1.
I will do that. Like I said I'm probably worrying over nothing, that's why I wanted to get advice from you more experienced compers.
Thanks Moogiegirl.
I shall be patient and stop worrying!0 -

Well Done :T:jThanks to all who post comps :A :T0

I don't think it would seem wrong for you to chase it up with them. When I had a WEM from a different comp for the same prize, I got the prize in 2 days. I had a WTC for another comp and the prize arrived within a week over the BH weekend.

Thanks Kateab and everyone else who answered me.
I'll wait a couple of days and then mail them again. Being a newish comper, I just wasn't sure how long people have to wait for prizes.
3 months? :eek: I would have forgotten I'd won the prize by then!
Thanks again, I feel much more relaxed now. :cool:0 -
well done hope you prize arrives soon0

It would be handy if you could find the original comp T & C as that sometimes mentions how long it will take for them to notify & then get then prize out to the winner/s.
I don't really tend to chase anything until a month, although believe me sometimes I'm hopping up & down in anticipation
It's up to you when you email to politely enquire if they received your delivery address & as you are so excited do they know how long it will take before it is with you 
Hope it arrives soon
Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out
