    Just checking - entering by autofill doesn't affect your chances does it? I assume not but just checking

    heart just skipped a beat, had a phone call at 3.02pm... pretty sure it was some scam call though (just heard a weird digital noise and then they hung up. Number: 01553605127 which looks to be reported as telemarketer on Google)

    oooftt!!

    I wonder how these competitions work? Is it completely random or is there a better time to enter?

    I'm just being jealous as I've been comping a few weeks now and no wins!lol

    Nelly I've been entering these radio competitions for about 7 years and no luck - maybe one day. Just the luck of the draw

    Completely random. The time you enter makes no difference to being randomly selected. Your odds are the same as everyone elses.. rubbish :D We've got to be in it to win it though and its free to enter! :)
