    When I won 3 netbooks from the same comp the number was witheld, you could be missing out big time by not answering.

    I always give a telephone number on a line I dont answer in competitions. I always assumed they would leave a message or email me. Could I be missing out here?

    I smile because I have absolutely no idea what's going on

    you could definitely be missing out - i very rarely get any sales calls but have had quite a few winning calls and I know that not all leave messages. I won a camera from the Independant in December and they said that I was the third person they'd tried but the other two hadn't answered so they missed out.

    From what i remember Absolute Radio don't leave a message or call back either, they just move on to the next person.

    Some companies (itv for example) will phone back though :)
