  • I've no idea whether it makes any difference at all what times you enter but just in case, I try to spread my entries out.
    Why would it make any difference? 
  • You have double the chance of winning if you spread them out.  It's what my tarot card reader told me!

    Statistically, not true. Equal chance whether you enter all at once or randomly over a number of days. (As long as the entries are randomly selected...)

    I believe they were trying to be funny.

    Ah, oops. Never quite sure nowadays….
  • Nope it didn't even get that far!  Straight to Vodafone voicemail 
    It actually rang first, I suspect they rejected it... A costly mistake!
