cant believe i still havent even won a packet on bicuits lol

Ok I have a question - I am know confused over which one was my winning packet for yesterday. Now if you enter a code and use it 5 times , then on your 6th time does it say you have exceeded the code. So you could never use that code again,. So if in the future I was to pick up a pack of biscuits with the same code I had already used wold it say on entry " sorrry you have already used ths code". Or would it still let me play
As I dont want to enter the code again now as dont was to disqualify myself.

You won't be able to use any further biscuit packs with the same code. You can use any one code 5 times, doesn't matter how many packets of biscuits you have with that code. Which to be honest, i think is stupid

No it doesnt tell you - I have just used a code that I have used before just to see what it does - strangely enough I didnt win but it doesnt tell you that you have already used that code too many times. I guess that is because there are going to be duplicate packs out there - I think it works more on whether it wants to let you win rather than the code you have entered.

Oh well looks like I might of f**** up then. What a stupid comp. I think I picked up a packet I had already used 5 times and re-entered and thought it was ok as it let me enter so assumed it had not exceeded its total. I wont be doing this comp no more!!

Hi, thanks fo rth einfo. But now that means you have disqualified yourself, as you have exceeded your entry with that code.

Well I've just entered one that I've used 5 times and it did tell me that I've used it already and I can't use it again. Are you sure you counted right CatKitty?

It definitely does tell you that you have used the code the maximum number of times so I wouldn't worry that you've disqualified yourself Kimmy

I very much doubt you've disqualified yourself, are McVities seriously expecting everybody to be keeping notes of codes they've had in the past so they dont buy another packet with that code and use it again?!
I keep on accidently entering codes for the 6th time because i quite simpy and honestly can't keep track of which codes i've used and how many times i've used them.

I think disqualification would only happen if you're found to be using multiple identities for yourself so you can use codes more than 5 times. i.e: using your name and address but with 2 seperate email addresses.

I'm not certain on all that though, thats just how i understand it.
