Possibly lost out on £20k!!

Options
Hi guys, so I’m really beating myself up! I entered Hearts make me a millionaire today, the first time I’ve done it. I assumed I wouldn’t get a call and as I was working stupidly left my phone on silent (I even thought I’d better turn it on loud but forgot) anyway checked my phone and I had missed a call from a No Caller ID number 2 minutes ago! It may have just been a completely random scam call, but the timing was just perfect for it to have been Heart, and the prize today was £20,000!!! I’m gutted I didn’t answer so I’d have at least known! Has anyone won with Heart before and do they call with a No Caller ID?

    I think it ends at 4pm or is that just to get your entries in?
    Most spam or scam callers that call me use a number, even if it is a fake number!
    I've only won with Heart via online form and received a winning letter, which was quite some time ago now.
    I wouldn't dwell on it, but could understand how gutting it must feel, if it is important they should call back, if it was a competition, it may have only be a small prize, not worth thinking about.

    Whatever it was / whoever it was, you didn't answer, not lost anything :smile:
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Sorry I should have made it clearer, I meant my phone said I’d missed a call 2 min ago, but this was at like 3:30pm

    Thank you! Sorry it was about 3:30pm I got the call, which was about 15 mins after the song aired. Sadly it would have been a guaranteed £20k and I think they only answer once! But like you say, not lost anything!

    Hi, I did try this Comp a year ago and it was too expensive and tempting to enter. 
    If you heard the artist and did the text entry within the 10 minutes, it might have been them but they have 4-5 rounds daily
