Won some Reading tickets

Thought i'd ask in here incase anyone else won the same prize.
I won some reading tickets which arrived today.They are weekend tickets so could have been used yesterday and today so good timing:rolleyes:
It also says though i have won a Nokia N73 which wasn't with them or anything.
The thing is i don't remember entering it so only would have done for the phone so sold the tickets today on Ebay(well hopefully going to meet someone tomorrow morning).
Now i'm wondering as the tickets say Nokia on them if Nokia have a tent or anything at the fesitval and i would have had to pick the phone up there.
If that's the case then either this guy who sounds ok as we have spoken on the phone will either pick it up for me if i mention it to him or he will just nab it for himself:(
It sells for about £280 on Amazon so is worth quite a bit.
I have emailed back the person who said i'd won but obviously being the weekend i'm not expecting a reply to at least Tuesday.

Do you think i should mention it to the person who's buying the tickets tomorrow morning?

Does anyone know if there is a Nokia area at the festival?

Thanks guys:)
Darren

    Hiya

    Nokia are definately involved in the festival - the only thing I could find you is this site - http://www.rockupandplay.com/ - they have a music tent and an area to charge your phone but can't work out much more than that!

    Hope it helps a bit anyway

    Thanks

    I called a number on the letter and she told me to call someone else but she didn't say oh you have to collect it from here straight away so hopefully you don't.She did say it should have been with the tickets if you have won one but don't worry they can send it out if you have next week.She did say i might have got the wrong letter though.It does say on there i have won one though.

    Then again the email i got telling me about the tickets said you may have won some tickets and to give my details before the end of the day on Thursday.That was sent about 3.30pm on Thursday and i didn't read it until about 6pm but they sent them anyway.
    Not sure why they would say you MAY HAVE won them,they either know i have or haven't.

    Oh well sadly to answer my own question i haven't won the phone:(
    I got an email back which i thought i wouldn't being a BH weekend

    Glad you got them in time, however we had two sets of tickets, one won a telephone and the other were just tickets. We simply put the wrong tickets in the envelope. Unfortunatly you weren't the winner of the phone.

    Hope you enjoyed the concert, and best of luck in the future competitions.


    Maybe i should complain and say no you told me i've won a phone and i want it now;)

    Yeah i should shouldn't i?
    I mean they can't disappoint people like that and say they have won something they haven't,even if it a mistake;)
    I should say i said my daughter/son could have it and how sad they were when i had to tell them that i wasn't getting it now;)
