This is how I have interpreted it.
If you have won £50 and carry on, if you win another £50 it will automatically be reallocated because it knows you have already won. But if you win £100 you cannot not claim it to try for something bigger, you either claim it or lose it.
I can see why McVities are doing this but everyone that swapped loads and had multiple big and small wins (shared or otherwise) will be keeping their wins before 3rd September. I can't see why people are complaining.
Those of us that bought lots of biscuits but didn't swap, because that was how we interpreted the rules, are now being penalised and are very limited by what we can win.
The only way it would have been fair was to limit the entries per household or person per day, not the wins.0 -

What puzzles me is if its a random number generator that selects names then how can they possibly bend the rules to take names out?? It couldn't happen for a start.
And how can people be claiming to have had a win by default if its already claimed??
utter bo$$$$ks if you ask me
If i ring mcvities I just get told thats its a seperate company dealing with the prize draw and they don't have any answers!
