    Thanks but the cost of the tickets rules this out from being posted here.


    I think the cost limit is now about £2.


    I will pass this to admin.

    2. Free Competitions Only. This is a not a place to advertise competitions you have to pay to enter. I will accept limited cost text message type competitons (though frankly they're usually naff apart from in special circumstances) where they cost up to £1.50 to text to enter, but generally I would say make sure they are free.

    MSE UPDATE OCT 2013: Many paid-to-enter competitions now cost more to enter. We've asked Competitions Board users the limit they feel is appropriate in this poll and have increased the maximum cost to £2.10. Please remember we don't encourage forum users to spend money on competitions but if you still feel you absolutely must enter these competitions then that's fine.

    Odds of selecting correct 8 numbers will be 100,000,000-1 or nearly 2,000,000-1 if numbers aren't repeated. Terrible odds. Prize will not be won.

    From a cost point of view, there's a LOT of people who have Cineworld Unlimited cards who won't be paying anything extra to book tickets to Spectre, so you could argue that it's not against the cost rules.

    I'm already paying for my card, in the same way that O2 customers are paying for their phones, and their contests still get posted :)

    No worries, I was not aware of such a card. I am no great cinemagoer myself.
    It has been passed to MSE Admin so the decision re removal or staying is down to them.
    Cheers for the help.

    If this was just open to "unlimited" card holders then it would be reasonable to expect that it shouldn't be posted anyway as the card is well over the spend limit but the same goes for railcard comps and others where an initial spend is well over the limit but they still get posted - yet an item costing £2.20 that many people buy anyway (so it will not involve any extra expense to them) cannot be posted because it's over the limit.
    The nonsense extends in the same way that if you had to buy an unlimited card/railcard etc to enter a competition it couldn't be posted.
