I was informed I'd won a Nokia Lumia area years ago from Nokia's Facebook page. In was very excited and then they rang to say I'd entered through an 'illegal' link! I'd actually searched their page from my own as my son told me about the comp. They wouldn't change their stance and it put me off entering on fb for a while. Butbpleased for your outcome! ��Enjoy!0

That's awful! Could it have been one of those fake pages?
I won a £50 voucher from a FB page recently. You had to like the page, post & tag friends, (Yea, I know that FB rules forbid a company from making it a condition of entry, but so many still do.)
When I'd done the liking bit, FB wouldn't let me tag - it often does that, so I went back a bit later and tagged a few comping friends OK. However, because they announced me as the winner on the non-tagging post there was an outcry from the sanctimonious losers demanding a re-draw. By the time I saw it - about an hour later, (So sorry I don't sit on FB all day!) they'd already announced another winner, so despite me pointing out I had actually fulfilled the criteria it was too late.
She actually got quite shirty with me when I pointed out I HAD done as asked. Perhaps she should have checked the entries more carefully instead of listening to the baying mob?Worse things will have happened in the world today..."The only thing that really matters, it to love and to be loved."0 -
