E: 29/06 (DAILY by 3pm)(3 entries per day) Win at least £5000

One-Eye

Magic Radio scroll down for free online entry.

You can enter each draw a maximum of 3 times per mobile number - entry is open for each draw:
Monday's 15:00 draw – Enter between 15:10 Friday and 15:00 Monday
Tuesday's 15:00 draw – Enter between 15:10 Monday and 15:00 Tuesday
Wednesday's 15:00 draw – Enter between 15:10 Tuesday and 15:00 Wednesday
Thursday's 15:00 draw – Enter between 15:10 Wednesday and 15:00 Thursday
Friday's 15:00 draw – Enter between 15:10 Thursday and 15:00 Friday

Within 1 hour of the draw time, the presenter will call the randomly selected number live on air (please note this could be from a withheld number).
The entrant must answer the phone within 15 seconds, and the first words they speak must be "I'm listening to Magic" in order to be declared the winner.
Should the entrant fail to answer the phone, or answer the phone beginning with any other words (including other words before the correct words, such as "Hello, I'm listening to Magic"), they will not win the prize. If the call goes to voicemail, even if the pre-recorded voicemail messages starts with "I'm listening to Magic", this will be judged as a failure to answer and no prize will be awarded.

If there is no winner, the prize will roll over to the next contest round, and it will be communicated on air if an additional amount of money will be added to the pot (usually £1000). All entries eligible for the previous contest round will be eligible for the next contest round when there is no winner. For clarity, if there is no winner after the 1st contest round, the prize will roll over to the 2nd contest round and may increase. Anyone who entered the 1st contest round, plus anyone entering for the 2nd contest round, will be eligible for the 2nd contest round.

The final contest round will take place on 29th of June 2018. If there is no winner, a 2nd entrant will be drawn and called. If the 2nd entrant is not declared as the winner, this process will continue until such time that a winner is declared, and the final prize is awarded.

Sorry to bump, but I am so sad at what just happened and wondered if anyone had any advice/information?


I entered this comp yesterday, and made a mental note to answer any unknown calls with 'I'm listening to Magic' if they were after 3pm. My phone rang at 15:46, and I answered with the golden phrase. I was met with loads of presenters saying, 'Noooo Nicole, this is KISS FM, you said the wrong station!'


They went off to the next caller and I was devastated, but also confused as I was sure the competition said Magic. I have hunted down this comp post, and it WAS Magic, and I definitely did not enter one from KISS yesterday. I have looked on the KISS website and they do not even have a competition with the same phrase/prize/terms, so I am really confused about why KISS called.


Is this an old competition post that I have entered in the past and forgotten? Or are KISS allowed to use the same names who enter through Magic with them being the same company? I have searched on the forum and can't find any comp like this from KISS. Any help would be appreciated!

how did they know your name? if all you said was "I am listening to magic"
was it a "friend" with a prank call?

Oh Nicole, so sorry to read this, you must be devastated

I am sure I have seen this same comp for Kiss but I could be wrong. Really weird though as if you entered from the link above it definitely goes to Magic.

The only problem I can see though if you take it further is that the idea of the comp is that you are supposed to be listening to the show so not sure how that would stand. I really feel for you though.

Because they called me based on my competition entry, where I put my first and last name. I've also googled the number they called off and it says its from KISSFM.

The Kiss one is for a The Ultimate Home Cinema System and you have to say "Now TV has must see tv"

Ooops I feel for you

Today's Magic FM wasn't won so it's a roll over for £6,000

My heart rate has calmed down now so I'm feeling better! Thanks for all your help! There are much worse things that can happen in the world than not winning a comp eh?!

How terrible - you must be gutted.

Laks posted The Kiss comp here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5852822/e-15-06-win-now-tv-box-three-months-entertainment-pass-43-lg-uhd-tv-more-must-go-on-air
...which I have deliberately not entered as I saw the potential for a mix up.

For future reference, the KISS number is 0844 811 2233, if anyone wants to add it to their contacts and avoid a similar error!
