I didn't think extending comps was ok

I just found a comp on twitter (it's just been bumped as still live by Alan Sugar - it's one of his apprentice winners companies) that was supposed to have ended on 01/12/15 - I didn't think companies were allowed to extend comps?

Here's the comp https://twitter.com/Hyperec_HRS/status/670255525754511360

Generally not supposed to without good reason (although there is nothing to stop them) and it also depends what the T&C's say but as the prize isn't even worth a tenner it's probably not worth bothering with.


This one was a bit more than just a changed closing date but shows the "guidelines" it can break

Ok, thank you.

I hadn't looked properly at the prize - you're right, it's a bit of cardboard haha.
