    How long have some people being playing the free postcode lottery?
    And how long were you on there before you won something?

    I've been on there about 250 days now I think and nothing so far.

    I've been on 312 days and not won anything.

    Some people have accumulated over £20 of bonus points and they're at 1p per day so must have been ages without a win
    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    You could add loads to the bonus on top of the 1p per day.

    Oh, didn't realise, thought you just got a penny a day for logging in.

    You get that but could earn extra by liking on FB, G+ (20p each) etc, also clicking on ads and when they launched prize dig there was a signup bonus for that.


    The £240 is claimed but the daily £5 is still up for grabs.

    Forgot the referral bonus, 1p per person upto £10.00,

    Ok so here's a question for you all. Looking at the biggest claims/biggest misses board. It says £201 was the biggest win. So that would make today's £240 the biggest? But the biggest miss was £220. So the next draw would have been £240 and so on? But that's not on there? Does that make sense?

    The £240 (plus whatever bonus they have) has been claimed today (draws run 24 hours from about midday) so will probably show as the biggest win sometime tomorrow, the £220 miss was yesterday up to middayish today.

    (The £5 draw runs 18:00 to 00:00)
