    42 phone entries this time for Monday.

    If the prize increments remain regular, it suggests that Friday 22nd December will potentially be a £250,000 prize in time for Xmas, most likely a guaranteed winner where they continue calling until someone answers correctly 
    That was the conclusion I had come to as well.

    answered after 3 rings and said make me a winner and won £210,000

    £215,000 tomorrow

    Do not wait till nearly 15;00 get all your calls done earlier.

    I am a big believer in fate and if it is your lucky day as long as you have entered you will win. no matter what time you called.
    So it doesn't matter if we do call closer to 15:00 then.

    Why would it?
    All valid entries are entered into the draw.

    It is a random number selector they use so it does not matter when you enter, a couple of people have won when entering late but you could have hundreds winning who entered as soon as the lines opened.

    I only had a few entries left to do closer to the time, as I’ve just been so busy today. I will try and get all my entries in for tomorrow done tonight, so it’s done then.

    And it magically works again after 15:00... that's not kosher at all.
    I had same yesterday, today I started 2.20, managed to get 20 entries then constantly busy from 2.40, just 4 entries till it closed 3pm. 
    Of course not, why would it?

    What reduces your chances is not making all the entries you are allowed, it doesn't matter what time you enter although entering early makes it more likely you can make all the entries you are allowed but each entry has the same chance as any other
  • Does anyone know when the last free phone call winner was mentioned? When they first changed to this free entry via phone route we seemed to have a string of them but I haven't heard of many if any at all since. Just curious  :)

    I have never heard them say that the winner has entered via the free entry route.
