    I entered this competition today and as a coincidence I had a call from some bloke allegedly from Radisson Golden Bay in Malta offering me a week holiday for £99 for 3 people :rolleyes: Me think it's too good to be true and sounds really dodgy. He claims to call from The Radisson hotel but their website is https://www.malta-dreams.com . Looks really fishy to me. Anybody got a call??
  • i had a call yesterday from a man claimimg to be from radisson. He told me i had won a weeks holiday (no flights). The tel no. came up unknown so no idea where he was ringin from. I told him to email me or put info in writing, cos i too was sceptical.

    I got a call a few weeks ago ( after entering a different competition).

    I contacted the Radisson direct in Malta and it is a genuine offer ( room only).

    Trouble is I wanted 2 rooms and they said they will only do 1 a week ... we could go on seperate weeks though!!

    Later heard the offer is great but is part of a timeshare sell so if your happy to listen to the blurb its a good deal.

    Maybe book through the hotel direct though ... I am sure the website they gave me was Golden Sands Malta.

    That was timeshare.

    I dont know if this is though.
    Not Again
  • We had a similar call before Christmas after entering a comp to win a Maltese holiday (can't remmber with who, don't know if it was related). Turned out to be a timeshare thing. Be careful in case this is the same. This one might be perfectly legit, but just ask the questions before accepting any prize, so you're sure.
    Big thanks to Martin Lewis for helping us start to sort out our finances!!!:A

    Best Comp win:X-Box 360!!

    And thank you to all posters! You're wonderful!
