    “£10,000 Secret Santa!” across the Global Network, November & December 2020

                                                                                                               

    Rules:                                                                                                                                                                                      

    1. The following rules (“Specific Rules”) together with the general competition terms and conditions (which can be found at http://heart.co.uk/terms-conditions/competition) (the “Competition Terms and Conditions”) of Global as defined in the Competition Terms and Conditions apply to the “£10,000 Secret Santa!” competition (the “Competition”) which runs from 2nd November 2020 to 20th December 2020 (the “Duration”) across the Global Network (the “Network”), which includes Global’s radio stations, SMS databases, websites and social media, encompassing Capital, Classic FM, Capital Xtra, Gold, The Heart Network, Radio X, Smooth Radio & Bigtop40.com”).                              

                                                                                                               

    2. Anyone who enters the Competition (an “Entrant”) will be deemed to have read and accepted the Specific Rules and the Competition Terms & Conditions and will be bound by them.                                                                                                                                                                  

    Details of the Competition:                                                                   

     

    3. To enter the Competition an Entrant must identify the celebrity whose face is obscured by the Santa costume, and text in their answer (the name of a celebrity) within the duration of the Competition. To do this, Entrants must send a text message starting with the word PRIZE followed by their answer to 82122 (the “Text Message Line”) within the opening and closing times of the Competition. Text messages will be charged at £2 plus standard network rates.                                                                                               

     

    4. The Text Message Line is open from 10am on Monday 2nd November and will close at 10pm on Sunday 20th December. If an Entrant texts in after the closing time, they will not be entered into the Competition draw, but they may still be charged.

     

    5. Global is not responsible for any latency experienced by an Entrant’s mobile phone network, which may delay the delivery of text messages to and/or from us. Additionally, Global is not responsible for any erroneous entries which may occur through a mobile phone network error or handset error.

     

    6. When an Entrant enters the competition, they will receive a text message that invites them to take part in our 4-for-2 offer, whereby if they enter a second time within the same competition round, they will receive two additional entries at no extra cost. The additional entries will be automatically included once the Entrant enters for the second time and they will not need to text a third time to claim them. If they do text for a third time, the cycle recommences and they will be charged again. It is the responsibility of the Entrant to ensure that if they respond to this 4-for-2 offer, the text lines are still open when they do so. Otherwise, any additional entry may be charged but not included in the draw. Furthermore, to redeem the 4-for-2 offer, the 1st and 2nd entry texts must both be sent following the instructions from only one radio brand’s website.

                                                                                                                                                   

    7. After the closing time of the Competition, one entry will be selected at random from all of the entries received during the valid entry period. If the answer within the entry is correct, this Entrant will win the competition. If the answer is incorrect, another entry will be selected at random until an entry with the correct answer is selected, a winner is decided, and prize for the Competition awarded. The winning Entrant will be contacted within 28 days of the Competition closing time.

                                                                                                                                                               

    Eligibility:                                                                                             

     

                                                                                                               

    8. Entrants must be aged 18 or over and have the bill payer’s permission.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

    9. You can enter the Competition up to a maximum of 12 times throughout its duration. We strongly advise against excessive use.                                                                                                                     

                                                                                                               

    10. Entrants must have a bank account, as the prize will be paid via bank transfer.                                                                                                         

                                                                                                               

    Prize:                                                                                                   

                                                                                                               

    11. One Entrant will win a prize of £10,000 paid by bank transfer.

                                                                                                               

    12. The prize is non-transferrable.                                                                                                                                                                    

    13. Global reserves the right to change the prize or part of it at any time.           

     

    14. We will endeavour to pay the winner as soon as possible, but are not responsible for any delays in the banking system. Furthermore, the winner will be required to answer a call from Global between 9am and 4pm on Monday 21st December and supply all the requested information immediately (as directed) if they are to receive a bank transfer the same day.

     

    15. If any eligibility checks need to be carried out, there may be some delay in awarding the prize.

     

    16. Global reserves the right to remove the Competition from all media if events out of our control require us to do so.

     

    Publicity and Identity of Winners:

     

    17. If you win a prize, we may publish your full name, town or area of residence and image indefinitely on our radio station websites (capitalfm.com, capitalxtra.com, heart.co.uk, radiox.co.uk, smoothradio.com, classicfm.com, mygoldmusic.co.uk and bigtop40.com) and within our mobile application “The Global Player” (also incorporating the individual radio station apps for Capital, Capital Xtra, Heart, Radio X, Smooth, Gold and Classic FM). We will seek your permission before publishing.
