I Recently won a prize with the Christmas Jumper Company, They sent me a winning code, so I went to claim my Christmas Jumper.
It turned out I had to pay £24.97 to claim my prize. When I queried this, it turns out it was a buy one get one free offer. I pointed out to the company this was not a prize, but a sales ploy. They have told me there is no way I will get my prize unless I buy one first.
Their last reply was at the least unprofessional.
They have at least two other competitions running at the moment, So I thought I would just warn everyone.

If people report the page to Fb as a scam and report to Asa those smug guys at pumpkinweb design behind this might stop finding it funny.
They obviously think their Pr fail will make the news with that arrogant video.#JusticeForGrenfell0 -
What an absolute joke. Let's bring down the wrath of FB on them by reporting their posts as spam due to breaking FB guidelines by asking people to share to enter. haha
