    Are you saying that enter more than once, with a different email address ?, ( if we have one the one mobile number ,does that count ?) or do we also have to have a different mobile number as well as email address?

    No what i was saying is that since the start of this competition, you couldn't enter daily through the website, as it wouldn't accept the same email twice. You can only enter once per person, per day, regardless of how many email addy's you have.

    If however you have more than one mobile you could enter for as many mobiles as you own.

    The quote i posted, was a woman from strongbow telling us that its not been fixed, meaning the online daily entry now works.

    Also, i've had a reply back in regards to the repeated txt confirmations we have to send if we enter online.
    Hi

    Unfortunately this is the case - Basically, we need to check that the number people provide is valid and has not been entered maliciously or otherwise against someone's will. This is particularly relevant for an alcohol brand, where we are trying to prevent misuse by minors and others. This kind of belt and braces approach ensures we are not infringing any legislation or terms & conditions.

    Instances where the mobile check is vital is if a minor was to appropriate a telephone number belonging to their parent and enter on line, the additional mobile check for confirmation operates as a further guard against them getting through. Performing the check everytime an entry arrives from that number ensures that the minor can't just get lucky once and carry on abusing the facility in the future on a misappropriated number.

    Kind regards

    Gillian

    ScOOBY-DOO AND THE PIRATE GHOST

    The new, all singing and dancing “spook-tastic” show sees Scooby-Doo, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred putting the fun into fear when they take to the road for the biggest Scooby-Doo Live Tour ever.

    Ghostly goings-on mixed with physical comedy, groovy music and magical effects will keep audiences happily spooked.
    Scooby and the crew are at the Empire Theatre, Liverpool, from July 23-26 and Time Off is offering five family tickets for the 2.30pm performance on July 23 for you to win.

    Just tell us which gang member is Scooby-Doo’s favourite sidekick.

    Answers on a postcard with your name, address and daytime phone number, by July 20, to: Time Off/Scooby-Doo competition, c/o Janet Tansley, Liverpool Echo, PO Box 48, Old Hall Street, Liverpool L69 3EB. First five correct entries out of the hat will win.
