    well done

    you might of got my tickets ...

    Coke zone sent me a letter I recieved it last thing on a Friday afternoon, asking me to send photo's, proof of id, passport or driving licence, be able to tell them what trains I was getting and what time I would arrive in london, and fill in a gazzillion forms asking for enough details to be able to make a clone of me, then gave me untill the monday to return the form so that was less than 3 days,

    I found this absolutely impossible to do .. so had to forfiet my prize .. I hope you have more luck than me and enjoy your day
    A heap big thank you to everyone who posts the comps, your all stars!

    Proud to of never used or felt the need to use a chain of any sorts on a puppy

    If that's the case then, thank you Kaelea. We couldn't take 4 people unfortunately so it will just be me and my wife going. Travelling up by train from Plymouth. Very excited now!!!

    We tried to do this but as it was all very rushed (I was told Wednesday pm and had to post it off Thursday to arrive by Friday.).
    All our family were busy or don't live nearby so we couldn't get their ID sorted in time. Will be great to go just us 2. :T
  • I won tickets through this promotion back at the end of April & I was given details of the event for which I had won tickets and advised that I'd receive 300 towards travel. I was told to expect that I would be emailed details within a month.
    I phoned today as I had not yet received these and was told sorry you will not be going to the Olympics!
    They could not give me a reason why the prize I won is now not available, but I am pretty disgusted. Await a call back from a manager.
    Would be interested to know if other people have experienced this problem?
    Thanks
