What would you do?

Had a win come today, it was supposed to be some books and a M&S voucher, worth £150.

Prize came today, was £80 M&S voucher which I was very happy with, but just one book. The letter said I was getting Annabel Karmel's entire collection, however, only one book had come, RRP £14 instead of £70 worth.

There is an email address to contact if I have any queries, do you think I should ask where the others are or would you settle for what I have?

  • Oh - that's a shame. I would definitely ask. If it was supposed to be "books" and one "book" arrived. Good luck!
  • Email them and say you believed the prize was £150 plus books

    Good luck!
    Thank you to everyone that posts the competitions and answers :A

    I would definitely email them, ask them if the other books are arriving separately or something.
    I had this once with a london paper win. I was meant to get a 200 quid cocktail kit along with a goodie bag. However only the goodie bag arrived , so emailed them regarding the missing cocktail kit and they apologised and it arrived the next day via courier.
