Won an ASOS voucher but heard nowt about it yet...

Options
I got a call a couple of weeks ago from Fabulous Magazine (part of the Sun news paper) and was told that I had won a competition for a £500 ASOS voucher.:D I was a very happy bunny about the phone call and the lady I spoke to told me she had passed my contact details on to ASOS, but it may take upto 28 days for them to contact me with info about my prize.

I've since heard nowt about the voucher and the 28 day period doesn't end until the beginning of May. I was just wondering if anyone else had recently won an ASOS voucher (it was one of the many Colgate toothpaste comps) and had already received their voucher? Or if anyone else has been told they've won a voucher but it still waiting to hear about it. And if that's the case perhaps we could set up a support group to discuss the pain of wanting to have a shopping spree at ASOS but not being able to ;):rotfl::rotfl:

Thanks :)

    Not 100% sure - but don't you 1st need to create an ASOS account and then they credit your account with the £500 as a credit
    I think I saw this on another comp, but like I said - not 100%

    Thanks Daza, I do have an ASOS account as I am regular shopper with them :)

    The lady I spoke to at the magazine seemed to think they would send me an email with an evoucher attached, which you then add to your ASOS account. Ever since getting the call I've been monitoring my inbox religiously so I'm 100% sure I've not missed anything...

    I'd call the magazine up and ask them to chase it up for you.

    Agree with this!

    I usually give 28 working days and a bit extra before chasing companies up.

    Thanks guys. I do intend to wait till the 28 days is up before I call the magazine again.

    Was just wondering if anyone else had won an ASOS voucher recently that was also waiting for it or if they had got their prize quickly.

    If anyone shops at ASOS I'm sure you can understand my pain in waiting for a £500 voucher ;):rotfl:;) it is a real first world problem ;)

    When I won from them a while ago it was a voucher code but I do remember they took a while to send it.
