Daily comps clicks2win

Hi
Apologies if this has been answered....
If you exceed the £500 limit in 6 months on take a break daily comps do they inform you? I ask as have been lucky in winning a prize of just under that value (by a pound lol) if brought off high street, but know the mags can sometimes state the prize as being at a slightly higher value than rrp.
Don't want to waste time entering, if I shouldn't be for 6 months.

The wording of their t&c's had me confused ( or I was just being thick) as I wasn't sure if it meant you can win 1 prize of £500+ & lower value prizes or just 1 prize of £500 within 6 months

Any help greatly appreciated x

    Bauer Media is one of £500 and upwards and no limit on prizes below that (if its a click to win they nearly always state the prize value)

    Thank you very much, yes they do state value, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was (iPad Air 2 & dvd) & it seems to disappear when comp ends. At least I can carry on entering, as could still win values below 500 if mine was over.

    Thank you for the threads too! Good luck x

    If it was the "what we did on our holiday" one it was valued at £500


    Some Click2wins have this as a FAQ
    Do you limit the number of contests I can win?
    There is no limit to the amount of contests you can win.

    but as they also mention IRS forms they are not very reliable.

    Blimey you have a good memory with how many comps there are! Yes it was that one, so there would be no point me entering any £500 or more for next 6 months?
    Can you remember the value of the Yale cctv easy fit system system please?

    That was £299 (web cache not memory).

    You could enter and just worry about it if you win another big one.
