GamesTec prize

Options
I got a Winners email from them, saying congrats I'd won. And that's it. Their competition stated there were 100s of prizes to be won including Laptop bags, gadgets etc. and many many more.
So I replied saying thankyou very much!! any idea what the prize is or when you'll ship so I can expect to be in?
I got the reply, "You should be greatful. Anything free is good isn't it?"
I was thinking.. well, time isn't free, it was a daily and I've entered everyday and if you're trying to build customer relations you shouldn't talk to people like this but I didn't reply again thinking this woman's incharge of what prize I get and I don't want to antagonize her.

Anyway, she sent me a bag of sweets worth less than a £1. Yay. Thought I'd share with you all.

    Write a sarcastic email back about how ecstatic you were with the prize and that you were glad to be in when the postman delivered
  • Cheeky so and so's. After that response I could have been tempted to send them a reply telling them exactly where they could shove their bag of sweets... We are all grateful for small as well as larger wins but that was a shocking way to respond to your email. :(

    Wow that's really rude of them!! To be so nasty and state you should be grateful, after you specifically emailed saying THANK YOU, is out of order I think. Very poor customer relations and I wouldn't bother entering any of their comps I don't think!
