    From reading the t&c's, this could be daily entry:
    7. No cash alternatives will be offered. Winners will be selected at random each day by a judge independent from the Promoter. One Winner will be selected for the iPod nano prize and five winners will be selected for the one year’s supply of Persil small & mighty. The decision of the judges is final. In the event of unforeseen circumstances the Promoter reserves the right to substitute the prize for an alternative of equal or greater value. Should less than six valid entries be received on any day of the Competition, the Promoter reserves the right to retain Prizes with no corresponding valid entry. No correspondence will be entered into.

    I'll email them and ask.

  • Gilla when I first posted it up I thought it was a daily, and said so in the title thread. On reading the T&C I think it is one entry and then Persil will draw 30 Ipod winners.
    4. No entrant may win more than one prize. One entry per person. Entry must be made using an official entry form available electronically at Persil.com/WinWithPersil.

    This comp. has been a real pain. They have now changed end date to 29/12 from 27/12, probably because of all the faffing about with the DOB at the start of the comp.

    I would be interested to hear what Persil say about daily entries. I will keep a lookout for your update. Thanks Gilla :)

    Hi Plush

    I've had a reply from Persil, and it's definitely single entry.

    Thank you for your recent email.
    In response to your query, as stated in the terms and conditions available on our website at https://www.persil.co.uk there may be only one entry per person.
    I hope this information is useful, should you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us again.

    No 7 of the T&C's has been very badly written, as it states
    Should less than six valid entries be received on any day of the Competition, the Promoter reserves the right to retain Prizes with no corresponding valid entry. No correspondence will be entered into.

    which doesn't make sense with single entry!

    Gilla, term 7 to me, makes complete sense when put into context, especially when looked at from a monetary standpoint.

    This competition has 180 prizes. It also only lasts 30 days.

    Therefore should Persil receive less than 6 entries per day, they will have prizes left over.

    Thats where term 7 comes in. If there are less than 180 valid entries over the term of the competition(which is an equivalent of less than 6 per day), then the promoters, do not have to give out any prizes that might be left over.

    I didn't realise this had been duplicated, and got "Number of entries exceeded for this entrant", so not sure if I've disqualified myself today :sad:

    I've entered a few times over different days as I thought it was daily.

    For your chance to win an iPod nano®* every day for the next 30 days**, or 5 further prizes of a year's supply of Persil small & mighty simply answer the questions below

    I read it as if you could enter more then once and maybe they should make it more clearer and I should've read the tc's better
