Had a letter today from "Family Fun Promotions Ltd" PO Box 1169, Axbridge, BS26 2WZ saying:
"Further to a recent selection process, it is with great pleasure that I am able to confirm that you are guaranteed to receive two of the following:
BMW mini, £10,000 Conservatory, 7 Night UK Break for 2, Canon Digital Camera, Home Computer System, £750 in cash, Digital MP3 Player or an LCD TV"
All I have to do is ring up 0906 407 2800 (charged at £1.50 p/minute - call last average of 6minutes and 25seconds). Anyone come across this ?
Fancy the Mini and the Cash.
(Forgot to mention the matter of - Except for the Mini and the cash there is an admin and handling charge of £15.95 per claim form (not per prize !)

You will win the 7 night UK break, in February in somewhere awful, room only and you must eat in the hotel restaurant.
Leave it."If a man says something, but there is no woman to hear him, is he still wrong?"0 -
I agree - complete scam.
The camera will be a webcam - worth £3.
The vouchers will be useless - strict time-bars, lots of onerous terms and conditions, and if you live in Bournemouth your break will turn out to be in Aberdeen [and vice versa!!], and they will give you 2 days notice of when you can go.0 -
Yep i got one too, makes a very handy fire lighter!0
