The lines open for the next day’s comp at 3.10 and I believe the call will have to be made before this. It is generally thought that the call is made around 3.05[Deleted User] said:
I answered on Monday afternoon saying "make me a winner" and it hung up following silence. I hardly ever get no caller IDs call my mobile, and I have read on the forum before of people having the same thing happen, but their voice was recorded by the competition without actually winning. How am I to know if this was a scam call or not?0 -
who was being rude?Blulu said:Look! There is no need to be rude. If you are annoyed because someone is asking a question that has been asked before, just ignore it. I am so fed up of the few people on this site who use sarcasm and anger. I remember when this forum was a kind and friendly place.

clearly politeness has not been getting through and certainly don't want another thread with potentially misleading information on it (caps lock was by chance and I wasn't going through nearly the whole thing to change it)Blulu said:
No, I think it's kind to give the information you gave. But not using the caps lock and sarcasm. I'm not just getting at you. There have been a lot of unkind comments on the forum lately. Perhaps this thread isn't the right place to debate it, but I do think it's right just to raise it. If it's going to turn into a debate, perhaps open a seperate thread on CCC? Just a suggestion.mjm3346 said:
So would you rather someone said hello and maybe missed out on £100,000 plus rather than have the potentially correct time frame pointed outBlulu said:Look! There is no need to be rude.

Guys, please let's help each other, not attack one another. We have the good fortune to belong to a Forum that help us win things, let's keep it that way. Life is hard as it is...not one of us needs hassle or harassment of any kind. I don't know nor I want to know how it got to this level, everyone chill a bit out. Please...I bet you my right hand that if any of you win big all the toxicity vanishes in a jiffy, so let's remember that we are here to support every one, and endeavor to keep it that way. Bless you all !Thanks to those who help us to win !

You’re right but I couldn’t see what post you were referring to.Blulu said:
You don't think typing in caps (AKA shouting) and using sarcasm is being rude to someone?Abbafan1972 said:

This is now happening to me too! All of a sudden. I used every number that @Comping_Rich kindly provided but alas nothing. It just says "line busy" when I dial. have tried to restart in case it's my phone but am really and truly baffled on my end!kazzystar1973 said:When ringing the free to enter number I’m getting “sorry the person you are calling is on another call, please try later” - anyone else getting this or is it something wrong with my mobile ?0
