    To be fair, courier services often take a contact number for the recipient. But it shouldn't be necessary.

    I won a CD on the first day, but I haven't received an email, well not yet anyway. I would expect a CD to come by post, not courier, so I don't see why they would need a contact number either.

    I'll post here if I should receive one.

    Congrats on your win too.

    I won a cd and a scarf but havent had an email.

    Would have thought they would need a no. for the ticket winners but not for anything else.

    Thanks op please let us know what they say.
