Any entries received before the Start Date or after the End Date (as stated above) will be invalid but you may still be charged.

We reserve the right to broadcast the Competition at any time throughout each day during the broadcast schedule.

ITEM 5: COMPETITION DETAILS

After the start of each Entry Period, the full prize amount, available to be won, (the “Prize”) will be announced on air. We reserve the right to announce the Prize at any time during the Entry Period. We may also advertise the Prize on the respective Station’s Website, social media or via an SMS marketing message or via any other medium at our absolute discretion.

After the Entry Period has closed, one entrant from all of the valid entries will be selected by automated random draw (the “Draw”).

In order to play the Competition, the entrant must answer their phone within 5 rings. The 5 rings will be judged according to the Station audio recording (for the avoidance of doubt the sound of a “ring ring” shall count as one ring, not two).

If the entrant answers their phone before the end of the first ring, they will win the Prize. If they do not answer before the end of first ring, the amount that the entrant can win will be reduced. After the second ring, the amount the entrant can win will reduce further and so on until the end of the fifth ring. If the entrant does not answer before the end of the fifth ring, they will forfeit their chance to play and no other entrant will be called. The Prize will reduce by £10,000 after each ring.

The entrant selected will be required to talk to the presenter / programming team, and the call may be recorded and played on-air (assuming there is no breach of these terms and conditions).

The entrant will not win any prize should they fail to answer the phone within five rings (according to the station’s audio).

Where there is any doubt in relation to whether or not an entrant has won a prize, we reserve the right to defer decision making to an off-air adjudicator to check the audio recording with reference to these terms and conditions. Our decision in this respect is final and we will not enter into correspondence regarding the decision.

Irrespective of the whether there has been a winner or not, all entries from the completed Draw, and any previous Draws, will automatically be eligible for the next Draw. Entrants do not need to enter again in order to be eligible but are able to do so if they would like to increase their chances. We reserve the right to vary the Prize for the next Draw.

We reserve the right to guarantee a winner for a Draw. This will be clearly communicated on air throughout the Entry Period of that Draw. Where a winner is guaranteed, if the first entrant chosen to play is not declared the winner, another entrant will be drawn at random and asked to play. This process will continue until a winner is declared.

ITEM 6: ROUTES OF ENTRY AND COSTS

Entrants can enter the Competition by sending an SMS message starting with the WIN to 63103 or 61025, YES to 63103 or CASH or PLAY to 61054. If the message does not start with the valid Keyword(s), or is not sent to the valid number, it will not be entered. Entrants will receive an automated SMS response to their SMS message confirming their entry. Entrants can also enter online below.

Here's the important bit:

In order to play the Competition, the entrant must answer their phone within 5 rings. The 5 rings will be judged according to the Station audio recording (for the avoidance of doubt the sound of a “ring ring” shall count as one ring, not two).

If the entrant answers their phone before the end of the first ring, they will win the Prize. If they do not answer before the end of first ring, the amount that the entrant can win will be reduced. After the second ring, the amount the entrant can win will reduce further and so on until the end of the fifth ring. If the entrant does not answer before the end of the fifth ring, they will forfeit their chance to play and no other entrant will be called. The Prize will reduce by £10,000 after each ring.

I'll add a link to Daily thread

I wish they gave the exact time of call, so you can be alert to answer within the first ring or so. In truth we only have a faint idea that is between 3:05 to 3:10 vaguely speaking.
