in I won! I won! I won!
Received a call this morning and was an automated call from The Times newspapers promotions team and that someone would contact me again.

Am just wondering if anyone else has had this and is it a possible winning phone call?

Am a little bit giddy now LOL

    If its automated i'm sorry but it's probably a sales call trying to sell you a subscription but hope it's a win for you

    I have had several calls form the times regarding subscription after entering competitions (and from stuff.tv) so I no longer enter them so although it could be a win chances are its a sales call

    Hopefully it's good news, but i've had atleast one call from them in the past trying to sell me subscriptions, so don't get your hopes up.

    I received a call from the promotions team offering me discount on subscription to the newspaper. Sorry to rain on your parade hope you get a real win soon
    Many thanks to the wonderful staff at Birmingham Childrens Hospital caring for my tiny and very poorly grandson who was born at 29 weeks. Thanks to them he is getting a little stronger every day.:A:A:A
