    This competition is the one where you have to say the phrase "The Good Times Sound Like This". The one starting on the 27th will be Hits Radio England where you quote the amount in the Cash Register, the Scottish version of which started today.

    I have had problem entering before.with some stations they don't refresh the entry page until after 9am, or later, while others you can enter after 3pm the previous day once they close it off for that day. Keep trying it should update and allow you in.

    Think the first draw maybe today. Quite ambiguous wording in the terms & conditions.

    When the last Cash Register Competition closed in Scotland it continued in England for 3+ weeks, which you probably know if you were entering both. They must have given away about half a million in that period as it was in high twenties then high thirties and a final big bonus amount. Can't say that was fair either. Good luck. Hope we both win. I am only entering Scottish one as they don't have the phrase to say and I would feel like an idiot saying the phrase and it was the wrong competition phoning me. Though maybe worth it for big money lol.

    Not sure what relevance it has to it being pointed out that people in scotland can enter the english comp but people in england can't enter the scottish competition. Nobody is annoyed about it sweetie it was simply pointed out as a fact, regardless of your defensive attitude. We come from all areas of the UK on here and once you've been here longer you'll find that we are one group not separated by area so stop being so defensive. I would also point out re your 'that was also unfair' comment, that although the English comp previously went on longer it was also able to be entered by those in Scotland so doesn't matter how long it went on as all were able to enter.
