E: 03/09 (Starts 30/08) Win 1 of 100 £100 H&M Gift Cards per day (Twitter-DAILY)

jojogirly

I won on yesterdays tweet by hitting the retweet button, I cant tell you how pleased I am to win £100 of clothes, I so need it I didnt enter today as I am unsure whether or not you can if you have won once. TBH I dont think I can stand the stress of playing tomorrow and Friday - sadly this has been all I thought about Monday and Tuesday.

Congrats winners, Good luck to those still in for the win x x

I'm on gravelheads list so fingers crossed Mine said me & 64 others when I RT'd. My friend who was sat next to me entering too is also on the list but hers said 100+ by the time she'd realised she had to click the yes button too....weird!!

We shall wait and see then...

Good luck everyone

@SpringDach One min is probably too slow, try immediately. Just hit that F5 button as soon as they start the count down from one minute to go!

When you're looking at H&Ms RTs, are you counting from the left, or from the right? The oldest RTs will be over to the right.

I haven't a clue, I've been using my phone?
I'm giving up! I spent today waiting/refreshing at work & retweeted as soon as it was posted....but do not think this would have been quick enough...Good luck everyone!

Well done to all the winners so far:j:j

Including me for yesterday :T:T

Just been reading through the thread and have come up with some FAQ's based on whats been said, and a bit of my own knowledge, will link to it in the OP as well, hope it might help some peeps, sorry to all those who retweets haven't been logged:(:(:(

FAQ's

1. How do I enter?

A. You need to Retweet the competition message when it appears on http://twitter.com/hmunitedkingdom , you'll be given a ten minute warning beforehand, there are two methods, either:

a) click the retweet button below and to the right of the message, AND THEN CLICK YES!!!
b) Copy the message & paste it into the Whats happening box on your twitter homepage

Either method works and people have won using both.

2. I got the message "Retweeted by You and 32 others" so that means I was 33rd and have won...right???

A. No, not definitly. You might have done though. These numbers don't reflect the actual time your retweet has been logged by Twitter, you may have been around the 30th to click the button but your retweet still has to worm itself through the system and be logged. In the retweet melee it might get delayed or lost:(

3. How do I know that my Retweet has been recieved?

It looks like lots have people have retweeted but it hasn't been logged by Twitter, to check go to the Twitter search engine: http://search.twitter.com type in your Twitter username and giftcardgiveaway, if there are no results or todays entry is not on the list it hasn't been logged:(

4. What can I do if my Retweet hasn't been recieved?

A. First check why this may be:

a) Have you created your Twitter account in the last 24 hours? - If so then your Retweets won't be shown on the search as the system hasn't recognised you yet, best plan here is to copy and paste as this will be more likely to show.

b) Is your Twitter profile set to private? - You'll need to go to your Twitter homepage, click "Settings" in top right corner, and look at "Tweet Privacy" If the tick box is ticked then you won't show up in the search or be entered.

c) If none of the above applies - Bummer! You've been unlucky and your tweet is lost, it happens, Twitter is rather unreliable at the best of times. Doubly unlucky if its happened twice in a row, perhaps your best bet is to copy and paste next time - its much more likely to show up, try practising doing it quickly, you could still win, remember people are clicking the Retweet button instantly but it doesn't get logged straight away, you still have a chance!

5. Do I really have to sit all day watching my screen for the comp to start, it's sunny outside!?

A. To be safe yes....If you want somewhat of a life you could possibly sign of for SMS alerts, see here for details it'll cost you 1 text message to validate your phone but recieving them is free.

6. I hate this competition/H&M/Twitter I want to wring their puny annoying necks!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

A. To be fair its not all H&M's fault, missing retweets are a Twitter problem. They made a mistake the first day for sure and haven't acknowledged that yet but they 'seem' on track now. They've chosen an unstable medium, Twitter, to host their competition and the messages saying "you and xxx number of people" have got people upset as it seems for all the world like they've won, but these number are irrelevant really, only the time Twitter logs thats you've retweeted can be checked. But if you need a local hitman to take down these incompetant corporate monsters, then feel free to look one up

Awesome stuff Coversnail.

Could a Wednesday winner please post in here when they've been contacted by H&M just so we get an idea of when they're doing it.

Cheers!

Thanks! Your retweet does show when I just searched for it: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=zoenmya+giftcardgiveaway

search.twitter.com is different to using the inbuilt search on your Twitter page I think. But doesn't really matter! Congrats
