Classic fm books - thanks mysticwen

Middy_Oil

Well I'm over 99% sure I've won them anyway, so sure enough to post here. As I posted earlier in chat corner an old school friend on FB asked me if I'd won on classic fm as her mum had heard my name. I just listened to the "listen again" from that hour (had to wait for it to be available) and yes definitely my name and county. Luckily my name is quite uncommon (1st name is anyway). There IS/was seemingly (from Googling - lists of names/addresses from electoral roles (not full info published obviously) 1 other of my name in the same county (records from 2002/3 so she might not even be there anymore), but the chances she also happened to enter the comp in that hour, I'm hoping are pretty low!
No email yet but a) according to the site on multiple winner comps they likely wait till all winners are announced (so that will be after Monday) and b) bank holiday and after office hours anyway.
It's "only" 2 books BUT their RRPs total about £40 (over £25 even on Amazon), and books I'll enjoy, so I'm quite excited!

Books finally arrived this morning! I'd sent them emails (/contact messages via site) to check if I was in fact a winner. 1st message ignored. 2nd message replied to by manager, who said sorry for no reply and he'd pass it onto the relevant department. No more communication from them. 3rd email, I replied to manager. He replied saying sorry, and that he'd "seen the books being packaged up to be posted off very soon" and should be with me soon, that was Monday, so this time they were actually telling the truth!
At no point did they actually confirm I was a winner, so I hope everyone else on the winners lists have got/are getting their prizes (though I will give them the benefit of the doubt as I think generally they're a fairly reputable company and also I'd had a message from someone who'd won a not-yet-received (at the time of sending message) kindle, and she said a prize from Classic FM in the past was quick in coming, so I presume there was a reason for the delay with this one (though would have been nice to receive proper communication from them and perhaps they could consider letting winners know they've won rather than just on a list (when if you have a common name would be more doubt over if it is you or not) especially if there is a delay!)
But anyway, got the books at last

(Those who read my chalice post, this is what I was hoping was in that parcel, but from the weight of the books I'm glad now I only had to walk with the comparatively light chalice!)

Well done :T

I too have received two books today. John Suchet - 'Beethoven'. and 'Everything you ever wanted to know about classical music'

And I had no idea I had even won a prize from Classic FM.

Many thanks mysticwen for posting
