If you click on www.five.tv/win it gives all the terms and conditions but this particular one seems to indicate that you can enter more than once as there is no limit stated in the competition:

"9. Any limit on the number of entries a person or household may make will be clearly stated in the competition information. Entries received in excess of this limit will be invalid and will not be entered into the competition."

Also this is specific to postal entries:

"d. Postal entry
Where specified in the competition information as an available method of entry to the competition, postal entrants may enter the competition by sending a postcard with their answer (if applicable), full name, postal and/or e-mail address and a contact telephone number (or such contact details as are requested in the competition information) to the postal address indicated in the competition information. Where indicated in the competition information, the postal address may include a show number and/or a competition number. If so, postal entrants must include the show and/ or competition number with the postal address on their entry and Five reserves the right to disqualify entries from the competition if the postal address does not include the show and/or competition number. Each postal entry must bear its own stamp but Five makes no additional charge for postal entries. Any postal entry received which does not bear the correct paid postage will be invalid and will not be entered into the competition. Entries sent by post must be delivered by the specified closing date (and time if applicable) for entries. Postal entries are deemed to be received upon arrival at the postal address indicated in the competition information. Personal and hand deliveries will not be accepted (unless specified otherwise in the competition information). Five does not accept responsibility for any incorrectly addressed or undelivered entries or for any disruption, delay or misdirection of postal entries."

Hope this helps.

When entering postal comps (especially for channel 5 shows) and they only ask for your name and phone number, does anyone else put their address as well. Would you be disqualified if you did put your address? Is there any reason why they dont ask for it?
