National Record Entry Release

I keep getting urgent reminders (x3) from the National Record Entry Release based in PO box 223, Herefordshire HR9 9FL advising that i have not replied to the previous letter to claim my up to £20,000 prize but need to phone for 6 minutes or text X6 to their call line. ( at a cost to me )
Letter is professional looking with a triangular crown logo. Tone is very pressurising and persuasive to obtain the code and release the "prize".
Similar scam was exposed by BBC reported in your Wye Valley promotions - forum 2014. I am binning the letter but this is repeatedly on going.
Any one else seeing the same.

    My Mum who is quite savvy and in her 80s was nearly taken in by these letters. She asked me whether they are genuine or not and after seeing this thread I've told her to him them.

    Not on the Credit Card/Stoozing Board - You need to post this somewhere like Praise Vent and Warnings or housing-related boards.

    But FWIW, this looks almost certainly like a scam or at least highly disadvantageous kind of "offer" to me.
