Sunday express

I found out I had won £25 on the Sunday Express Skeleton crossword in the October 13th issue (from the crossword in the 29th Sept) waited and waited finally e mailed them 3 times to eventually get a reply that the person who writes the cheques was sick. and they would sort it, there last e mail was 22nd Nov so have just e mailed again it is ridicules that they have not sent this yet, as I said to them it is a good job I am not waiting for the top prize of £1000 as I would be loosing interest. Wonder why I buy the paper and the stamps!:mad: The paper calls itself the EXPRESS but they do not live up to their name! (rant over) sorry

    :p Cheques? How quaint, LOL :rotfl:!
    Perhaps you could offer to send your bank details so they could do a direct transfer ;)?

  • The one time I won from them on a text comp it took over 8 weeks to come through! I didn't chase it though as you have, so perhaps that would have speeded things up. I'm sure you'll get it in the end :)
