Hi All
Is it genuine? I was bored the other week and started entering loads of competitions on their site and this morning recieved a recorded delivery to say i had won £3K but had to call a number within 7 days to claim the prize...sounds dodgy to me but wondered if you had heard anything?
Cheers

Don't tell me, the number starts 09.....
Get ready for a long time on hold and listening to music and/or "Your call is important to us" garbage if you call. They'll try to keep you hanging on as long as possible - at £1.50 per minute.Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0 -

You probably received a letter from Clubseasons. They seem to be a UK based timeshare organisation.
If you ignore this letter, they will write again in a couple of weeks, enclosing a brochure & saying how "amazed" they are that you haven't taken up your "prize". This letter will ask you to ring them to discuss reallocating your prize to somebody else.
I ignored this 2nd letter too. They haven't bothered me again, yet. Problem is, I don't remember entering a competition to win a timeshare.
P.S. The phone number is 0800Going down the Oteley Road to see the Shrewsbury aces! :T0 -
Actually, last year, my brother won 2 VIP tickets to Glastonbury Festival and all he had to do was call a mobile number to redeem them. I know this to be true cos he gave the tickets to me!0

You can't give Glastonbury Festival tickets to anyone else - they are non-transferable."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0 -
http://www.myoffers.co.uk/ this site? I saw this last week advertised on either the mirror or sun website, signed up and completed a few questionairres but it seems a bit dodgy and the prizes they give just for entering the other competitions seem like a complete waste of time (plus you have to pay for postage)Yes Your Dukeiness0
