"Purely Creative" magazine scratch card. How to claim

MsBubu

THanks JulieJesta! I now want to beat them at their own game! I always see these in my mags. Could be worth it, got papers and enveloppe aplenty!

Can anyone tell me exactly which are some of the publications these cards are in?

Having a little trouble locating some. Be good to know a few weekly/monthly mags they come in, so i can scan through them at Whsmiths!

Cheers

Ooooh, this looks fun!

I've requested them to send me a scratchcard, anyone know how long they take? I know this is a bit cheeky, but if I don't hear from them and anyone has any spares, would anyone mind sending me one? The local newsagent seems to bin these!

Hmm, I've been asking around for these, and quite a few people have also told me they haven't seen any in a while. I do hope this isn't anything to do with all the complaints recently...

Have other people still been getting as many (or any) of these?

Just got a strip of three today in What's on TV. As usual one with 3 symbols and one with 2. Claiming the 2 symbols first since all the prize's are cash and for 3 symbols I will probably get the holiday voucher- no idea if these are any good.
Am going to keep track of exactly how long each claim takes this time.
Also had a £10 CHQ confirm letter this week so should be getting that soon!

Still haven't heard anything from them.

Anyone feeling generous? Obviously I'd pay postage etc.

Update: 24 days (inc weekends) to recieve a claim number via email, letter sent 2nd class.

The e-mail now contains a full list of symbols and the prize you can claim for (yes the 3 symbol one I have is a holiday voucher so no point in me claiming that one), and you must now print out the email to include it with your claim.

Also got the £10 cheque through I was waiting for!

Hi

Thanks to everyone for their input.

Can someone explain to me if this is right:
1. Scratch off card to reveal symbols
2. Write letter template from JulieJesta to special address in small print asking for claim number
3. Write letter template from JulieJesta to special address in small print opting out of marketing (optional)
4. Keep original scratchcard in safe place and write claim numbers on the back
5. Receive confirmation of prize letter (thanks to KxMx)
6. Wait for cheque / prize

How are prizes allocated? Is it random? Who oversees to make sure independent?

Thanks
