    Most of them by value and number are Bauer Media, a few are Global and there are a few others - each group has their own T&Cs.

    With Bauer if you win £500 or more in any Bauer competition (radio magazine etc) you are not allowed to enter anymore where the prize is £500 or more for 6 months and that is across the whole Bauer Group radio, tv  and magazines

    https://www.bauermedia.co.uk/brands

    "The prize is as specified in the Specific Terms. Unless otherwise stated in the Specific Terms, each entrant is limited to winning one prize per Competition. There is no limit on the value of a single prize that may be provided to the individual winners of a Competition. However, no person or persons at the same residential address may win more than one prize valued at £500 or more via any of our Competitions in any given six (6) month period."




    the global group is slightly different and they inform you if they are applying a restriction (£1000 or more but not automatic)
    http://global.com/radio/

    "So that we can ensure the fairness of our Promotions, we reserve the right to prevent you, at our absolute discretion, from entering any of the Promotions for a period of six months (“Exclusion Period”) if you have either (A) won a prize valued at £1,000 or above, or (B) won more than one prize during the previous six months. If we choose to exercise this right, we will notify you in writing."


    The group including Talksport sometimes has very small prizes and that knocks you out for a year for any good ones as well
    https://www.wirelessgroup.co.uk/about/radio/

    "Officers, employees and agents of the Promoter and any party associated or directly connected to or with the specific Competition (including sponsors) and their families, officers, employees and agents (as applicable) and anyone who has won a prize on any radio station or website operated by the Promoter within the last 12 months are not eligible to enter any Competition".

    there are various smaller stations/groups with their own limits
