Question about Ultimate Wii Games Room

Options
I am so desperate to win this prize, that I persuaded my wife to enter too using her mobile number.

Trouble is, she is at home where we don't get a mobile signal. So I have taken her mobile with me to my work where there is a signal. If I got a call on her phone, do you think it would be a problem if it was me answering it and not her? The T&Cs say "Participants should ensure that they are available to be contacted on the same mobile number as used for entry". Would they be unhappy if it was me and not her that was contacted on that number?

Any ideas? :confused:

    Thanks for that info, hamster.

    Just one more question though...

    If I gave my own name, it wouldn't match the name submitted on the NPN form originally (because it was my wife's name). Do you think they would pick up on that. Alternatively, I would have to say my name is Anne-Marie! :D

    I hope this hypothetical scenario becomes a reality!

    And answering YES is the most important thing, make sure you know her email address (my OH didn't have a clue ~ luckily I was there to grab the phone)

    I have been comping on here for a few months now and have only today found the comp for the wii room :rotfl: :rotfl:
    I have been reading posts of people that have won but have not been able to find it, obviously I was not looking in the right place and didnt know the comp name either ;)
    What we see depends mainly on what we look for

    could someone tell me, what if you didn't answer the call, would they let you know by email/leave a message?

    Reason I ask is that son and daughter have both entered, but they don't have their phones with them all the time.??

    Thanks

    Why do they need your e-mail address?

    On the NPN route, they email you a code. I've never used the other route so don't know whether they ask for an email address for that.
