Wow!! After chasing up a win of hats and booties that was not received...

... and was worth no more than £30; I received this reply via email....


'Hello J

Thank you so much for contacting Kailani again - when she passed along the details of you not receiving your competition prize, this has deeply saddened me and I cannot apologise enough for this experience.

I (We Lead Media Ltd) no longer do marketing or web development for Paloma Design Ltd (Minimoomoo.com) as we have not received any payments what so ever. However, I was kind enough to keep their site trading up until yesterday, when I found out about the below issue of yours as that is totally unacceptable, so they now find themselves being redirected to Adams.co.uk.

This of course means I can no longer vouch for this item being sent out to you, however, we (We Lead Media Ltd) will not let you down and here is what we'd love to do for you... Either;

- Go to a site like Adams.co.uk or any other baby shopping website and send me a list of links to baby products (including sizes/colours) - We shall then purchase these items for you and get delivered to your home address ASAP.

- Or, we can send you a cheque for £80 and you can spend on what you so wish.

- Or, if you have Paypal - we can send you the sum of £80 to spend how you so wish.

Again, I wish to offer my apologise to you - but we'll make sure this matter is wrapped up this week once you let me know what you'd like to do from the above options.


Thank you and best of luck with the child birth!
John'



FTW!! It's so nice to actually have a company go out of their way for you!! I have a few missing prizes where I normally get ignored when trying to contact!! This is unbelievable and I'm just more than happy. The prize value has more than doubled and I'm in a little shock!!

Just thought you may all like to read this, give us a little bit of hope, and to see something nice for a change :D

    I can't decide!! Going to wait for my hubby to come in then make a joint decision. Well, in truth there's a pair of baby ugg boots I want off ebay and couldn't justify getting them, so thinking paypal so I can buy them - just got to make sure hubby doesn't shout first ;)

    Good on them! :D

    It is rather annoying having to chase up wins. I'm still trying to chase up a Tshirt I won in September - surely they're not that hard to send!
