Hi DeliaBillingham just wanted to let you know I received the cheque you sent me today..... thanks very much hun and all the best on all other comps xx2013 - Best year ever with wins over £8,500Prizes Wishlist: BAFTA goody bag, Food hamper, KitchenAid mixerNeed to get my finger out and start entering more comps
:o:o
:j :j Bonkers about Comping...... Thanks all posters :j :j0 -
Well, I've paid everyone I need to and everyone who needed to pay me has done so, unless McV pays Broadpaws a second £50 win in which case I'll get a nice surprise. Still waiting for three cheques to arrive or clear at this end but I've already paid the sharers of those by directing my payments from other wins straight to them.
So thank you everyone. It's been... well, I'm not sure what it's been really. It started off fun, the winning was brilliant, the sharing's been lovely and some of the bonking was okay, but too much bonking is... just too much! Sore and aching mentally and physically and towards the end I really needed to spend more time doing other stuff and found I really had to force myself to bonk. I'm glad it's over to be honest and I'm not sure how much I'll get into another comp that takes over my life so much. Looking forwards to another Magnum one though!!
I've even run out of biscuits. I've just got a 3/4 inch thick layer of digestive crumbs at the bottom of the biscuit tin. Mmmm, I feel a cheesecake coming on!!! Why can't there be a cheesecake competition? One where we have to eat loads of cheesecake and we win cheesecakes...
Why am I talking about cheesecakes? Hello I'm a cheesecake. I don't think I've recovered yet.
Well, I'm sure I'll be back on this forum before, but I'm going to wish everyone a happy Christmas while we're all still here, cos it's going to be a better one for the winnings of this comp. I'm guessing there might be another comp in the lead up to Christmas - please someone let me know if there is.
Good luck everyone who is still sorting things out here (especially Broadpaws!! :-). Bye bye and lots of love to you all! I'm not turning my back on everyone, just making sure I don't turn my back on my other friends whom I know in physical reality.
Peace, respect, trees and smiles,

If they don't give a code, we'll have to claim saying we've thrown the wrappers away. But if they contact us saying 'congratulations, you've won in a redraw with wrapper no. XXXX XXXX' we'll wish we'd kept the wrappers in the back of a cupboard or in the loft...0 -
Also wont people who havent won a minor or major be the ones elligible for any unclaimed redraw, I cant see them offering it to someone who has already won even if they were next closest to the winning time.
Still waiting for a chq to arrive here.
Maybe, but then many of us have friends and relatives who have also 'been entered' and who haven't won or have only won once. Not sure how the redraws will be done, but I think it's worth stowing the wrappers away somewhere just in case.
It's up to the individual of course, and I hope we don't need wrappers, but I don't want to have to tell a winning MSE'er that I don't have a certain wrapper any more because I couldn't find space for a carrier bag in the loft for 6 months...
Right, I'm going to escape this forum now!!:D0 -
Oh by the way folks, if anyone has a fridge delivered from the Heineken comp and the oaf who delivers it dumps it on your doorstep like a sack of potatoes, make him wait while you check it for damage before you sign for it and if he's broken it don't accept it!
I was half asleep and now I've got to wait for the promo company to work out how they go about sorting it out for me and everything's filled the kitchen floor!
I don't care. I only care that the beer hasn't arrived yet!

We should also assume that wrappers will be needed and that the redraw will be taken from all non-winning entries over the promotional period. So please store your wrappers somewhere safe because someone might need one of them and it would be a shame for someone to win £250 in a redraw and then find that the person who had that wrapper has thrown it away.
I seriously don't think you will need wrappers for any re-draws. It doesn't say anywhere in the T&Cs to hold onto your wrapper. If a non comper wins a redrawn amount I seriously doubt they will still have the wrapper from mid Aug after being told they had not won with it. As the T&C change was to protect Joe public I imagine any redraws will be done with the same people in mind. If it happens to me or my family I will argue the point very strongly!
If I'm wrong, sorry to anyone who wins with my codes (yeah, right!!). But I needed the space in my cupboards and they are in landfill by now I'm sure.0 -
