Hi
Ages ago I won a Britains Got Talent ITV comp - I won a Flip camera and a paul potts cd and there was some mention of tickets to one of his shows... I heard nothing until I got a phone call on Tuesday saying I could have a pair of tickets to one of his shows and where would I like to go. I choose my venue - not actually knowing of when the concert was on as the guy on the phone didn't confirm it, and the tickets have arrived this morning (posted second class) and the show was last night. :cool:
How rubbish is that, on one hand I would have probably struggled to find a babysitter if they had have arrived yesterday but I know I could have given the tickets to someone to enjoy.

Feel a bit robbed!!! Has anyone had a similar issue anything I can do???

    Oh that's rubbish isnt it? Have you still got a number for them? I would try calling in the first instance. I would think they should at least offer you something to replace them.
    Thanks to all who post comps :A :T

    Thanks for the advice - yes I do still have the number and will give them a ring on Monday - they should have at least been posted by First Class Recorded at the minimum to make sure they got here!!
