    Thanks Claire for sending that text :)

    I hope one of us (any of us) wins soon.

    I put my mortgage payment of £620 but was meant to be going to buy a wedding dress for £650 so I know exactly how to use the money that would normally pay the mortgage......but I ended up with a £1,400 dress!!! EEK!!
    If only I had known before I could have entered for £1k towards my dress!!! lol
    Dream of being mortgage free....

    Maybe we're the only ones listening to Absolute Radio....
    This was from the Guardian Media.

    'National commercial station Absolute Radio's audience has fallen by a fifth since it changed its name from Virgin Radio.
    However, Rival national commercial station TalkSport scored a record audience of 2.5 million listeners in the final quarter of 2008.
    Absolute's average weekly audience fell by nearly 500,000 listeners on the previous quarter to 1.89 million in the final three months of 2008.
    And Absolute was down nearly 600,000 compared with the same period in 2007, according to the latest official Rajar listening figures published today.'
    Top wins in 2018: Trip to Iceland, helicopter ride over london, couples massage, £300 flight from Pringles, trip to Paris, cocktail making class and afternoon tea up the shard. .

    Top wins in 2017:holiday to the Bahamas, trip to Paris, meal with champagne, a week in a manor house in France with £500 spending money.

    The reply I just got was
    This was my mistake. A human error I'm afraid...the database randomly selets winners but I discard them if they are over £1000. This time, I had a quick look and thought the 2 was a 1 so it was all my fault and luckily they didn't call to claim their money... This is the first time this has happened and will not be happening again as it's not fair.

    Please if you would like to discuss further, please call me on **** *** ****.

    I wonder if she got the £900 one muddled up with £200 aswell online. That is so out of order as it is very clear and i could have put a higher bill in online.

    It is not really rocket science seeing if a bill is over £200 or not.
  • it's a shame they don't do this on local radio stations, maybe with a lower limit
