    well done! :T

    Yes I got my cheque no problems.

    As with you he (Gaurav Kumar) told me he would call back to get my details and after I hadn't heard from him for a couple of days I gave him a ring and he just said it was fine as I'd given him my address in an email. After that he was very communicative and kept me informed when he was posting the cheque, why there was a delay etc.

    I wouldn't worry, you can always give him a phone as I did if it's been a few days.

    Thank you for the reply. I did call him yesterday as I was too excited to wait any longer! lol
    He basically said I confirmed my details already via email and the cheque was in the post... and I got it this morning! :D
    He didn't say anything about a delay, im curious now lol.

    I can't believe I won. I don't think I have ever won anything in my life.

    Glad to hear it. :D I don't think you've realised but I won in May, you bumped an old thread, so the delay was then because their secretary was off.
    Out of curiosity was it the £250 you got too? Congrats again!

    Oh sorry I didn't realise! :wall:
    I only found your post because after receiving the email I tried to search for it on Google to see if it was legit (because initially I didn't remember Thomson was holding a draw and thought a random email saying I won a prize sounded a bit iffy).
    I was a bit wary about giving out my details, but the email was the same as yours (although written slightly differently).

    Sorry about that!
