silly question I know, I do get free 0330 calls on my EE acount
Is this a weekly or daily comp?
and how many free entries? is it still 3 like before?
Thanks

I have just entered 60 times and then got the message that I have reached my maximum amount of entries, and it is a Daily comp.

Thank you Jambo DP

If I am going to be very very very lucky and win this competition at some time, today would be a good day and then you would not be able to enter again for 6 months.

Silence using EE phones

I am on EE and I was getting silence after dialling the 0330 number, even though the call had clearly connected OK. After looking around the EE forums I found the following worked for me and allowed competition entry.

I am using Samsung/Android but others will be similar.

Press the “phone” icon to bring up the “Phone” app, click the three vertical dots to bring up the menu and choose “Settings” then turn on “Wi-Fi Calling”.

Turn on wi-fi on your phone to connect to your local network.

Call the competition line.

You can turn off “Wi-Fi Calling” when you have finished

Explanation - With this setting your call is going from your handset through your internet connection using w-fi, rather than directly over the cellular network to the nearest phone mast. Its purpose is for times when you are somewhere that has poor phone signal strength, but wi-fi is available. The call will be shown as a wi-fi call on your call lists etc using one of the following icons:

Yes you do

If the Entrant gives the correct Prize they will win. We may ask an entrant to repeat or confirm their answer.

The entrant will not win the Prize should they:

• fail to answer the phone at all; or

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

• give the incorrect Prize; or

• fail to say anything at all; or

• be disconnected for any reason beyond our control

For each of the stations involved there are a number of different numbers you can call, it doesn’t matter which you choose to call.

Thanks for the info, I have tried that previously but apparently my Samsung J500 does not have the option for Wi-Fi Calling. What confuses me is that the phone worked fine for a while for the Cash Register comps on 0330 numbers but then stopped and just gave silence once connected. Also, my EE bundle shows free minutes being used up when I do call, despite the silence, so the call must be connecting; I have no clue as to whether my number is received at the far end and entered into the competition. Think I might need to upgrade the phone........
