    Why are people entering with ridiculous first names like M and BD? Isn't that cheating the system? I mean presumably when they call you to confirm address details, they'd call you by the name you entered with, so it would be odd if they asked for someone named M? :S


    do call you and ask for all details id ect you entered it is stupid as no one is called m lol
    hopefully the prizes will get chucked back in xxxxxxxx

    Oh, do they ask you to send them ID or something like the mcvities competition? I'm guessing you already got your confirmation call from them?
