I wonder how many people don't read the full Absolute terms and conditions and send multiple entries. It's a bit naughty with the presenter misleading people saying that "each" text you send will cost 50p plus your standard rate -I know he's talking to the audience, but even so, they have not made it clear and some poor soul could spend the whole hour texting and be disqualified as a result!0

But the text you get back says you can make more than one entry and the full T&C say one entry per person, unless otherwise stated. So I would say you are allowed multiple entries.Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

I think you are looking at the general competition terms at about/legal/competition_rules.html rather than specifically for skyfall competetion at freebies/competitions/skyfall/terms.html
as the main say "Only one entry per person is permitted, unless otherwise stated."
not that I'd say spamming text messages 'worth it'

You are correct, I missed the "unless otherwise stated" bit, sent my text and got a message back saying "enter again .... " so that's clear then. A mini spam might be worth it for £20K :-)0
