The Compers Inn - Part 11

lb364

Hey everyone,
I don't want to sound like a moody cow but I need to have a moan and get others opinions...

I recently won a £50 amazon voucher through the far flung alfie comp on the alpharooms website (the one where you had to take 'alfie' away with you and send a pic with him in.
Well I found out the over all winner the other day, which in my opinion wasn't the best photo.
I took a look at this person's other photos and three of their four photos are 'winning' shots in the comp.

Now I don't know know if I sound like I'm jealous or something by now but this doesn't seem right to me
All the other entrants miss out so one person can win three vouchers and a holiday, how is that fair

I'm quite happy with my amazon voucher and didn't think mine was one of the best (I liked the scottish one!) but this doesn't seem right, what do you guys think?!

Hiya, if you have a link to the page displaying the winners? Then perhaps we can take a look. If you really don't think the competition has been run in a fair way then there is some info in the comping Guide that will be of use to you:

Winning Section, 7 What happens if my prize doesn’t turn up?

snippet from the above section of the Guide:
The Institute of Sales Promotions [EMAIL="complaints@isp.org.uk"]complaints@isp.org.uk[/EMAIL] lay down the guidelines which comp organisors must follow. MSE Compers have reported that they are very good at investigating dodgy comps & missing prizes with one chap in particular [EMAIL="edwinm@isp.org.uk"]Edwin Mutton[/EMAIL], being an absolute star.


There is a lot more info in the Guide in that particular area, but I've just copied out a little for you that I think will be of most use to you. It can be frustrating if it looks like a comp has been run unfairly so I can understand where you are coming from & we don't think you are a moody cow

Hope this is what you were after

Thanks the comp is here: http://community.alpharooms.com/forum/topic/show?id=2033322%3ATopic%3A15385&page=5&commentId=2033322%3AComment%3A31135&x=1#2033322Comment31135 but there's nothing in t&c's to say someone can only win once so guess there's no grounds to complain...

I can see what you mean through, that just doesn't feel fair, even if there was nought in the T&Cs against it...

Evening all! Juts going to do the ITV Comps including that rather lovely sounding 100k! ib364 - its kind of complicated as its an objective competition, there is no definitive correct answer ... in which case the editor or judges decision is final but it does seem some what unfair that some one won lots! but then again I'm not sure what you could do about it
