    So, no online winners this year then.

    I entered a small bill last year in the hope of my name coming up on the website. I think I'll go for a bigger bill this year!;)

    I'm a bit confused over the bill. Is the prize the bill for the month or for the year?

    I've only entered a small (ish) monthly bill thinking it would be times by 12 :o

    Bigger is always better. :p

    I doubt many people actually just enter a small amount even if its for utility bills, because if they go with a higher amount, they could potentially cover a years worth of that utility bill. :)

    I thought there might be more chance of getting it paid if it was a smaller amount?

    says the names they read out are randomly selected so the amount will have no bearing on whether or not you are selected

    A lot of competitions say that but from people I know who have worked on these things they are never that random!

    I entered £620 - one monthly mortgage payment :)

    I knew I had seen a start date in Jan, but thought I was cracking up because I couldn't find it again! lol

    Well hopefully this will be a good start to a good year for a few of us! x
