E: 30/01 Absolute Radio Pay your Bills On Air or On Line
Comments

Tell us about the monthy bill you'd like Absolute Radio to pay. Keep it below a grand to be eligible to play (read our full terms and conditions), then tune in to Absolute Radio to hear if you are a winner.
Hmmm - after I saw the woman who won last week wanting to pay off her triple pram and not a monthly CC bill/mortgage, I thought I'd choose something quirky so said I wanted them to pay off my new bed (£800) which has come on my CC bill which totalled over £1000 so couldn't put that...
The bed isn't a monthly bill either, but just realised I didn't put the actual word 'bill' in my entry... hope they don't exclude me and I've been tuning in at 7am for nothing... :eek:
Edit: just read T&C's - Bills can be for credit cards, store cards, utility bills, loans etc. If submitting a mortgage, personal loan or residential tenancy rent bill, only one month's re-payment will be paid (if won).
Even more confused now as surely a pram doesn't fall into any of the above...hope that means i can still enter with my bed...

can't believe online has still not gone!
Now i think absolute should come on this site and pm one of us for our names, so one of us can be an online winner!!!0 -
Or perhaps the Claim button is broken..? Gosh, it really doesn't look good for Absolute with two days passing and no winning entrants bothering to check the website!
Yep, I agree that the rules are stupidly unclear! Originally I believe the bill had to be unpaid, so that ruled out all the direct debits. Then, like you, I couldn't do CC bill as it totalled over £1k. The only unpaid 'bill' I had at the time I entered was Council Tax. So I was a bit peaved when I saw someone had won a cut and colour at the frickin' hairdressers!
Also, the T&Cs state: The entrants whose names we read out on-air will be selected by chance. So are the online entrants are selected on merit?
Bit of a mess isn't it? Hard to believe that the comp has been successfully run before!0
