Advice about ticket win please

Options
I have had an email saying I have won

http://www.australiantimes.co.uk/entertainment/music/australian-music/win-cody-simpson-uk-tour-tickets.htm

When I entered I asked for Manchester, but my WEM states London. I have emailed back asking for the Manchester tickets & be told as I was the 4th one drawn I don't have a choice.

I find that very unfair, and it's a prize my DD would love to attend.

I have emailed Edwin @IPM & asked if they can help urgent as the concerts are this week but just wondering if anyone else can help/offer advice please.

    Hope you get some help.

    It does seem unfair- when you look at the wording there is nothing to indicate that you might not have a choice in the venue.

    Any reasonable person would assume that if they won that they would be able to choose which venue/date they wanted.

    I think that unless it's stated you can choose the venue you're stuck with whatever they give you unfortunately.
    I hope I'm wrong though x
    Good luck, hopefully you will get the venue you want :)

  • I am almost 100% positive then when I entered it did have a choice & I chose Manchester. The t&c's seem to have vanished as well.

    The "Winner" probably got to choose from all 4 venues, 2nd drawn could choose from the 3 that were left, 3rd drawn had a choice of 2 and as 4th you had no choice.
    (Would have made more sense to draw a winner for each venue, cannot see any point in asking where you wanted otherwise).
  • Been told they have been swapped for Manchester, should have arrived in yesterday's post but still waiting - hoping they come today.
