  • Because we DID buy the biscuits.

    We could have read the codes off the packets in the shop, gone home, input them and if they didnt win, no harm done. But as far as I know, we all bought biscuits and LOADS of them.

    Each code used was from someone who had purchased a packet.

    I agree with the wording of something like codes are not transferable. Makes perfect sense.

    Ive purchased 59 packs so far, got the receipts and can also take them back and get a refund if I wanted to because my supermarket lets you do that.

    Again, if the reason McVs have changed the T&Cs is because of this (remember nobody really knows why they have changed the T&Cs) what is happening is instead of that code for say one of the packets someone has bought being entered 5 times, by swapping codes it could be entered god knows how many times.

    So, McVs sell for example 1000 packs of biccies, then if everyone who bought them entered they can expect 5000 entries. But, what has been happening, for that 1000 packs sold they are now receiving a much higher number of entries as people are swapping codes.

    You can still play to get a higher prize when you win that's it, you can't enter again, and if a win of £50 comes up you can't claim it, lol
