  • How long will the competition run for, is there a set amount of money that it reaches and then finishes. 

    Does it work when you are on holiday? If I buy a Vodafone European roaming pass, can I still make 42 calls per day from Rhodes 🤔 I’m just thinking that I don’t remember ever hearing the ring tone that you get when you phone someone and they are abroad. 
    Just keep swimming!

    I'd say the Ts&Cs aren't very clear for entering whilst abroad. What's your opinion on it?

    The Ts and Cs say the following, which I read to say that they won't disqualify you if they get a non-UK ringtone when they make the call (i.e. if you're abroad):

    In order to play the Competition, the entrant must answer their phone within 5 rings. The 5 rings will be judged according to the Station audio recording (for the avoidance of doubt the sound of a “ring ring” shall count as one ring, not two). Any non-standard or international rings will be judged as 13 seconds exactly (the same duration as 5 UK rings). If they are not in a position to play for any reason then they will be unable to play the Competition, and no other entrant will be called.

    I've never seen that bit of the Tc&Cs before! Thanks.
