    I spoke to mcvities who were quering a couple of 2x50 wins for me with their promotions team.

    She came back with I can only have 1 x 50 win and a big major prize.I rang back again saying what If I keep getting £50's then as I didnt want the money to go to waste and she said the system notes when you have won £50.I said thank you for your advice afterwards and put the phone down.So now I have a bigger prize to get then I am out of the Promotion.

    well done to well done Jodesters dad on his big win.

    so basically it doesnt matter how many £50s you get you can still go for a bigger prize without getting diqualified?

    I haven't done this comp yet, due to pepsi and hols.

    I've just posted this link on the discussion thread, and thought some of you on here may also be interested. I would ask that you comment on the discussion thread as well as this one on it please. Looks like it was released 2 Sept...

    I thought a lot of us may be interested in this article..

    ISP Warn Promoters About Online Competition Cheats
    The Institute of Sales Promotion (ISP) have finally started warning promoters about cheating in online competitions. They have issued advice to companies that run competitions to tighten up their terms and conditions regarding entry restrictions due to increases in multiple entries..
    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

  • Hi Mamzie - an interesting article and one to which I have responded on the marketing week comments for this - I would be interested if they had the balls to let it be published. I think it succinctly summarises what many MSErs and compers are feeling about the debacle of the T&C's that McVities have drafted on this competition and changes created mid-flow. I agree with the run of the thread but wholly believe that ISP have a responsibility to the consumer / comper as well as the relevant retailer so their article and warning just touches the iceberg from a biased perspective...........in my opinion of course!
  • Just thinking, could I put my name but a different address if I have alreayd won today? Would that work? Or would it need a different name too?x

    No because you need a utility bill or driving licence proof if you win a big prize. So unless you actually live at the other address it's not worth the risk. Also McVs will see your details duplicated at 2 different addresses and could disqualify you from the whole promotion.
