    Re Prize limits

    The puzzle magazines have this

    h) Multiple Entries: Unless otherwise permitted pursuant to any Specific Terms, no person may enter any Competition more than once and persons may not enter or participate as part of a syndicate or on behalf of any other person, syndicate, group, society or company.
    i) Retrospective Effect: Where an entrant or prizewinner has been found to be in breach of any of the terms and conditions of a Competition and in particular where a person is in breach of the entry restrictions set out in our official rules, we may nevertheless still enforce our right to disqualify that person and require the return or reimbursement to us of any prize even where a prize has been awarded and/or actually provided to the entrant or prizewinner in question.

    while TAB has this
    h) Multiple Entries: Unless otherwise permitted pursuant to any Specific Terms, no person may enter any Competition more than once and persons may not enter or participate as part of a syndicate or on behalf of any other person, syndicate, group, society or company.
    i) Prize Limits: No person or persons at the same residential address may win more than one prize valued at £500 or more via any of our Competitions in any six (6) month period.
    j) Retrospective Effect: Where an entrant or prizewinner has been found to be in breach of any of the terms and conditions of a Competition and in particular where a person is in breach of the entry restrictions set out in rules 4.5 to 4.8 above, we may nevertheless still enforce our right to disqualify that person and require the return or reimbursement to us of any prize even where a prize has been awarded and/or actually provided to the entrant or prizewinner in question.

    I think the only way to be certain would be to ask them or carry on and see what happens if you win £500 or more again within 6 months (H Bauer Publishing and Bauer media are "sister companies" just to confuse things a bit more)

    For further confusion see this thread

    It's a six month limit so makes no difference now anyway but the limit does not apply to prizes under £500.
