    They used to play the "hello" calls but haven't for some time now
    I have heard the “hello” calls every time they’ve happened. It might depend on what radio station you are listening to. 

    I normally listen to Greatest Hits Radio.

    I'm guessing if you've already answered the maximum number of times since it first started rolling over, you can't enter again until it's won? I entered the maximum the day after it was won (10th) and therefore haven't entered since.

    Sometimes I think they don't always ring someone every day, I think they play a prerecorded failed/"hello" call just to deliberately roll it over to get more entries and more money. Strange that if someone won £96k, the next day it's £97k, but if it rolled over it's still only £1k more...

    Who enters and doesn't glue themselves to their phone between 1500 and 1510??!
    you can enter 42 times every day even if it is not won I will have 500 entries in the next draw
    I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus
  • I'm actually finding it frustrating that they're rolling over because I wanna start re-entering again!!

    I was under the impression that if you entered with the maximum number of entries and then the entries rolled over, you can't enter again until it's won

    I think they meant that they used to play the full call when someone said "Hello", when they explained to them that they'd said the wrong thing and hadn't won. They were hard calls to listen to.
    IIRC for a while they'd give people £1,000 if they answered Hello, but they didn't do that for long.

    From the Ts and Cs:
    Where there has not been a winner, there will be a rollover and we reserve the right to announce a new Prize and Winning Phrase for the next Entry Period and Draw. The Prize will not be lower than the Prize for the previous Draw. All entries from the completed Draw, and any previous Draws, where no winner was declared, will automatically be eligible for the next Draw. Entrants do not need to enter again in order to be eligible but are able to do so if they would like to increase their chances.
