    Hi
    I entered this by text and now my phone keeps on getting texts with descriptions of men who want someone hot in the bedroom!
    I don't know if I am being charged for the texts, is this happening to anyone else?

    Text SUN 148 to 61192

    Texts cost £1.00 plus str

    Please note that they have changed the entry terms. "Text us the 3 numbers in the 3 shaded boxes from your chosen puzzle any day this week. Winner will be chosen from all correct entries after lines close at midnight on Sunday 19th"

    Then says "Winners will be chosen at random from all correct entries after the lines close at midnight each day" :confused:

    So pick a puzzle any day but get the right answer in before midnight of that day and if correct will be enterered into the draw on Sunday at midnight - that about right???

    Anyway - Good Luck :D

    I wish I'd read down before I entered, I've just had a text back saying I have to be 18+ and to reply back with my age, sex and if I'm gay or not.................there has to be something wrong with the number:confused:

    Yeah I agree the Sun sudoku comp t&c's are confusing! I stopped doing it cos I thought it was misleading...you would think they gave prize away everyday rather than end of wk seeing as they print the answer the next day! :rolleyes:
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    You probably ARE being charged for these texts. Are you sure you sent your entry to the correct number? A digit out makes a lot of difference. Have you tried texting STOP?

    Oh dear. The OP/Magazine must have the wrong text number. Comp texts are usually 866 not 861 (but I can't be sure).

    I think you are right Matryoshka. I think 86611 is the right number to text.

    If you google the number 86111, it is linked to lots of spam texts.
