    taken from another forum....



    I spoke to Aysha at Magnum.

    Started by saying I am probably wasting my breath but would you please answer why nobody in the comping world had won a prize from Magnum since last Thursday......

    I was really surprised when she said their was a technical fault. I told her she was the first person to admit this. She said they had only been informed of the fault within the last hour.

    She said there was a delay in ansabacks to texts and emails and that the winning texts had now exceeded the 72 hours (maybe this is why Technical people have now informed them).

    I then asked her whether all the text entries from last Thursday onwards would be in the draw? The answer was YES.

    I asked her whether it was worth entering whilst there was a fault and the answer was YES

    I commented that perhaps they would have seen a downturn in entries over the past few days but she didn't comment.

    I also pointed out that people were getting ready to get onto the ISP with the problem but that I would go back and inform people of the technical glitch.

    Lets see how things go, I'll ring her again tomorrow if nothing is up yet.

    Big thanks to Sunshinebaby at Loquax for getting that reply ;) :j

    So it sounds to me as if the entries counted, it's just taken them longer to notify winners......so maybe the people who kept entering will have a better shot since so many stopped...

    probably not since the fifty boxers are still in the mix...but here's hoping :)

    good luck
    Lots of luck to everyone! Hope good wins come your way!

    I spoke to Edwin Mutton of the ISP yesterday - he says he's had lots of complaints about this one, but it looks more like a big fat technical glitch than a scam.

    Glad to hear it's being resolved...

    Did I mention I actually asked 2 people for their lolly sticks in the street the other day? I am one step away from crazy cat lady...

    cards are arriving, but if you won more than once you only get 3 strikes to find the correct user code and pass

    there is no indication of the amount on the cards or the date as far as I know

    and no claim no

    so very difficult for multi winners to match up, but ok if you only won the once I suppose lol :confused::mad:

    There is a guy who has spent a whopping £1,000 on Magnums and won over £5k in prizes. No idea who he is, but I think we'll be able to spot him wandering down the street...

    £1k in Magnums = about 3,000 ice creams = 810,000 calories = enough to last the average man almost a year!

    I'm kinda glad I didn't get any cards today, must be very annoying to log in and there is no credit loaded on them (true they are empty at first with time delay loading of money ) :rotfl::rotfl:


    sorry to laugh but it is the english thing to do I suppose
