Sorry everyone, but jaibaby has discovered that this competition which I thought was free entry on the website, is actually costing£1.50 to enter (on your mobile account).
Complaints have already been sent to the person named in the T&C and replies received which indicate that "charges made incorrectly will be refunded". The matter will be investigated further tomorrow morning.
Hopefully, it will all be dealt with automatically, so it may not be necessary to bombard the guy with complaints and claims at this stage. I will post further information as and when I receive it.
PS. One reason you shouldn't be charged for entries like this is that it is open to abuse through people entering phone numbers of third parties

If you've entered it this morning, hopefully he's fixed the problem. I entered shortly before posting on the thread - I'm on O2 pay as you go.
I haven't heard back from him yet but will keep you updated xThanks to all posters :A0 -
I don't know if I've been charged or not, but it's only £1.50. I won't lose any sleep over over it, and you shouldn't either One-Eye. With all the comps you post, something like this is bound to slip through the net occasionally. If I lose £1.50 now and then, it's well worth it.
Blu XI am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apology
THIS IS ME!

I totally agree with you was just mentioning the network as it seems not everyone was charged.0 -
