Text Guinness Rugby comp on vouchers?

The vouchers that we got in addition to the Rugby pack has a text competition to guess what time Ireland will score their first try.
Prize is tickets to 2008 Rugby Nations match

The text number is 51725 however, when sending this the response is something along the lines of "the shortcode number has not been recognised"

The Service provider number 016790640 responds with "You have dialled an incorrect number"

Anyone else having this problem?

    IMO these are southern numbers don't know what to do about the text but if you dial 00353 1 6790640 you should get the help line!

    Yep, they're ROI short codes so only work on Southern providers. You could drive down to Newry and roam onto one of the networks there!

    Nothing on the letter states that it's for ROI only :rolleyes:
    No, I won't bother driving to Newry, not from Bangor anyway.
    I wil just have to win the tickets some other way.:confused:
