thannks for posting, but this one doesn't seem right for me.
It has very poor grammer thoughout (I may point out here that mine isn't the best, but I do have a good reason)
For example
The phone will be the lowest specification i-phone 5 that Apple release and Oxfordshire Press will purchase it as soon as Apple release them without the need for a call contract. We will deliver the prize to the winner with a week of purchase.
Is there a link from a specific oxfordshire press site?0 -
I just didn,t fancy this comp at all. It doesn,t seem kosher to set up a website simply to give away a phoneI,m so stupid that I forgot the mnemonic0
-
I got an acknowledgement email from Oxfordshire Press for this one with company and named party - looks legit0
-
Seems to check out ok after comparing details on these two links.
http://whois.domaintools.com/wintheiphone5.co.uk
http://www.oxonpress.com/contactus.html
Both list the same address.
Up to each of us as it could still be iffy,but well done iffy :-)0 -

The oxon press site itself doesn't look that legit too.
I think I'll personally give this one a miss, but like you say, up to each of us!0 -
sorry to bump but as this is still on the first page oxonpress.com is linked with oxfordshire press who are Simply Prizes magazine and Winners Friend magazine.
I met one of the staff and Mr. Mutton from the ISP earlier this year during a meeting I was invited to with other fellow compers (We had to do a vote) also two of the oxonpress staff at the Northwest Compers day last year
As for the spelling mistakes and grammer - I would say we all make mistakesASK A WOMAN HOW SHE FEELS
AND SHE'LL OPEN HER HEART AND TELL YOU HER

ASK A MAN WHAT HE FEELS AND HE'LL TELL YOU
HE FEELS LIKE A PIZZA0 -
It's def legit. Sandy posted it on Comp club and twitter and she works for them :-)0

I think they were just guessing that there was going to be an iPhone 5.
If there is a prize, it will be the iPhone 4s0 -
And as the competition closes "2 months after the release of the iphone 5", we're looking at an end date of at least Feb / Mar 2012. It's supposed to be released Dec in USA, a few months later here in UK.Thanks to all posters :A0
