I know that he did say to me that I could pick a prize when I saw one I would like but it would have to be one where it wasn't a one off prize so he could order an extra one.
I don't know if perhaps they are sometimes trying to give lower value prizes instead?0 -
When he offered me a different prize from another comp, the first thing I said to him was no not if it means another winner wouldn't get a prize as that wouldn't be fair, but he said no I would get an extra copy, seems he might be just trying to find out who I am in contact with and probably won't see this so called prize of the dvds!0

So frustrating for you both. I had a similar issue with Totz2teens. After about six months and various emails (with me becoming more cross with each one) I got the prize with an added extra as compensation. I hope you get it sorted really soon.
A little bit trickier fighting so hard with a charity, though. I've always said if I win with The Big Issue I would make sure I bought a copy that week.0 -
Hmm yes will see if it does turn up RatGirl
Squina, if it turns up I will buy a copy of The Big Issue!!0 -
I won with them over a year ago (a book) and it got "lost" in the post so they sent a new one 3 months later.2012 wins: Panasonic home phone, Panasonic mobile phone, maple syrup and cookbook, £50 experience voucher, book, craft stuff, holiday in Ibiza, Dr Who Figures and 2 cinema tickets, bottle of Gin, 2X DVDs, Ipod touch, Moshi Monsters cay, Lipstick, Relaxation CD, £500 voucher for birdwatching holiday
Fingers crossed for an ITV win0 -
I won the same competition - I only got the books as well. When I emailed, I was told that that the dvd boxset had been delivered by Royal Mail and must have been lost. I thought i was the only one who had not received it.
I was also told to let them know about any other competition prizes that I would like as replacement. But, seeing none of us have received, and have all been told the same thing - would have appreciated if they were honest about it.Swagbucks: April: 25£ May: 25£ June 25£
Amazon 100£ Voucher: 45/100
July Wins: Yankee UnionJack Candles, Footloose in London DVD, MacBook Case, Rimmel Mascara, Books x 110 -
I'm the same Vid, if they had been honest it wouldn't be so frustrating.... I just don't understand why, it's hardly a difficult prize to get hold of so if they do have them then just send them out???0

New email from him (well 2) -
( 1 ) I just called round our other offices by chance to see if by chance your parcel had been returned and it has!
Apologies, i have asked for the dvd to be posted to me and i will post it to you next week.
If you could let me know who the other person is who didnt receive the dvd then i will get in touch with them to help.
( I replyed, again mentioned no names just said the other person would be in touch)

[FONT="]( 2 ) More people than I thought had not received the DVD!, at least they were eventually returned to us so I can try again now and post them out. I posted your copy via registered delivery today and I can track the parcel to your front door so there should be no problems this time.[/FONT]

[FONT="]Please do let me know when it arrives.[/FONT]

Will still wait and see, vid I would email him again to chase it!0 -
Surely if they have been returned he knows who hasn't got so why does he need us to get in touch?
Maybe it has been a genuine mistake and maybe they havn't put enough postage on the parcels or something? Seems very strange that they all were returned as undeliverable0 -
Well well well guess what just turned up!0
