    Hi guys, I just had an email from paramount facebook club saying I'd won the trip to LA, I've found the post on here and I am one of the people who thanked the poster of the comp, however I'm slightly worried that when you click on terms and conditions it says that idea generation (i'm guessing the company running the comp for paramount) have ceased trading? What do you think? Can I get excited?!

    Email them back and ask. Seems odd that they would email you to tell you that you'd won if they weren't going to fulfil the prize.

    2013: £134.96

    I wouldn't worry. That's probably just the PR company, the prize will still be provided by Paramount, I'm sure.

    Well done on your win
    MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR

    Hi im guessing that idea generation, are like the company chosen to run the draw on behalf of paramount.
    And as the comp is on paramount fb page NOT idea generation,
    then paramount will have to honour it by law.
    The only way it would be different is if it was on idea generations site only.

    But you never know..... fingers crossed though.
    Still comping, after 2 heart attacks 4th feb & 6th feb, and a stent put in.. 45 years old only:eek:
