As title, I got a call from Ellisons (number with-held), not sure if it was posted on here, but this is their FB page https://www.facebook.com/EllisonsHairandBeauty?sk=wall
I can vaguely remember entering my details for the Ipad (I had previously liked the page).
She was calling to ask me what I do in the beauty trade (I don't work in the beauty trade). Don't know if this is a condition of entering for the Ipad, but I didn't want to get into a conversation about it, so I just said I'd never heard of them and couldn't remember filling it in just to get rid of her.

I too had a call, the girl asked if i was in the beauty trade and i said no, she said ok i will delete your entry to the ipad comp then as you have to be in the trade to enter. I looked up the t&c and rang them back as it doesn't state that at all, a manager called back and said the caller was only offering to send me a trade catalogue and it had nothing to do with the competition and i was still entered to win. I bet i don't though!StayHome * StaySafe * BeKind0
