1st won Prize

Well im been entering a few cokps since about last Tuesday. I got an email this morning saying i had won from "Quizonaut" nothing big (Mouse Mat) but its something. To claim the prize I have to sttach a photo id with my name clearly visiable. Is this right?

Sorry never done anything like this before.

Thanks

    I've never had to have any ID shown for all the things I have won but some prize providers do ask for it. Seems a bit silly when it is a mouse mat. Still congratulations! And welcome to comping! :D

    Welcome to comping - and you just ticked off your first few items in comping bingo.


    - The first win
    - The Quizonaut mousemat win
    - The confused post asking about Quizonaut's ID policy


    Well done on your win. This is standard Quizonaut ID policy. They do it for all prizes. Seems a bit OTT for a mousemat, not so much for a better win.


    Most people enjoy the fact that they've had the excitement of a winning email (WEM), smile, decide the ID is too much for a mousemat (who uses one of those these days anyway?), decide not to claim it and move on to the next win.


    Up to you. You might REALLY want a mousemat...

    It's a good feeling to know you have been the lucky one selected, even if it is just for a mouse mat! Plus, they do come in handy so well done!
