Mysterious !!!!!! email...

I won the card holder & postcards from the spin & win comp, then they sent me the earrings as "Thanks for the feedback" when I replied to their email expressing my disappointment they were now running a voting comp ;) :rotfl:.
Earrings and card holder have arrived, but so has this email...

Dear Customer,
Thank you for your participating in our SLOT & WIN competition.
We have confirmed that you have won the prize. However, we are sorry to inform you that we would postpone our delivery to your address due to our delivery damage from prize provider part.
Hope this would not disturb you too much.
Best Regards,
EDS customer service team


Wonder whether it's been written by someone with perhaps an EAL grasp of the language as it doesn't make sense to me!
Are they referring to the postcards do you think, or have I won something entirely different...
Did anyone else get this email?

Most peculiar :eek:!

    My spin to win emails from them over Christmas were written in similarly poor English. I would suggest it's not their first language!

    They are based in ghana, we discovered this from the lady gaga comp a year or so ago which may explain the not so great english.
