    I entered my mum as she does not have a computer and lives at the other end of the Country. I said to her if she ever won NOT to mention I had entered her.

    Well she got a phone call last year and she won ITV's Real Deal from the entries I did for her. What did she do..... tell the young man that "Oh my daughter enters it for me". :eek: Thankfully he either didn't pick up on it or ignored it and she got her £2,600 cheque 28 days later!

    won 3k on golden balls a while back, I entered 5 times and i entered in my name only. also i won 20k with morrison/walkers comp last year entered only once, so no it doesn't make any difference how many times you enter its just luck of the draw.

    T&C state:...up to 5 entries per phone number.
    Entries over the maximum number of entries for each method of entry or entries which are misspelt, incomplete, inaudible, incomprehensible or not received by the closing date and time will not be entered into the competition...
    So even if they did decide not to allow more then 1 phone number, they should still allow the first 5 entries.

    Are mobile numbers actually allowed though, or does it have to be home numbers?

    When I won £5k from GMTV I only entered once (as I figured there was only one prize!). :D

    I have often wondered if other family members who sometimes use my computer and also enter these comps make mine invalid. ie I enter 5 times with my landline number and 5 times with my mobile number - sometimes my daughter also enters these ITV comps with her mobile number (but different address).

    Hi minerva123,

    I am sure your daughter's entry is fine as the address is different.
    It is multiple numbers per household I think is not allowed - I am awaiting confirmation from ITV on this point :-)

    Sorry to bump, this is interesting as I always enter 5 times for my landline and 5 times for my mobile. I don't want to end up disqualifying myself. :(

    I always enter 5 times for landline + 5 times for mobile, and I once won a runners up prize (an exceedingly good cake!).
    I don't know whether all 10 entries were accepted or just 5, but I was not disqualified.
