  • Ah, there's the trick - wait a couple of seconds to see if the person calling says 'hello' first!

    As long as you don't leave it too long. From the T&Cs:
    The entrant will not win the Prize should they:

    • fail to answer the phone at all (including if the call goes to voicemail); or

    • fail to answer the phone within five rings (according to the station’s audio); or

    • answer the phone beginning with any other words (including other words before the correct words, such as “Hello, winning phrase”); or

    • fail to say anything at all; or

    • fail to start saying the winning phrase within 5 seconds of answering the phone;

    • be disconnected for any reason beyond our control;

    • be inaudible for any reason.

    As it was at 15:58 it cannot have been the competition, as that does not close until 16:00. The perceived wisdom seems to be that currently, with the network competition and a specific person making the calls, the call happens shortly after that, probably between 16:00 and 16:15?
  • You don't need to know the amount for this competition do you? Yes, it's nice to know what you could win.
