just attempted to enter this and the texts are failing. Tried from 2 different numbers so it seems the entry line has an issue.atm. (entered a couple of different text comps without a problem)

i tried again today and still failing to send. i'm beginning to think that the O2 network have blacklisted this shortcode as the mobile numbers I have used are O2 and GiffGaff which uses the O2 network

has anyone who uses a phone connected to O2 network [O2, Tesco, GiffGaff} managed to enter?

MrRichTea

I'm Tesco & tried umpteen times but fails to send

O2 say it is Empire Mag/Bauer media's fault as the number is not currently registered on the O2 database. It seems that the shortcode has to be registered with the networks and Bauer media/Empire magazine seem to have forgotten to pay the bill to renew the registration.
