    Capital’s £30k Friday FAQs & Rules 

    How much does it cost to enter?

    Entries cost £2 plus your standard network rate. 

    How do I enter?

    You can enter the competition by texting FRIDAY, followed by your answer, to 83958. You can also enter online through Capital’s Win+ platform. Entry packages start from £2. 

    What question do I need to answer?

    We’ll play you an audio clip on air, and you’ll need to identify the artist. Make sure you only get the competition audio from listening to Capital’s live output or via Capital’s Win+ platform, not via social media or any other means. 

    Is it the same question the whole time? Yes, it will be the same clip to identify. 

    When do I enter?

    Make sure you enter before the competition closes at 26th August 2022 at 3PM. If you enter after that you won’t be entered but you may still be charged. 

    Can I enter from anywhere in the UK?

    You can enter the competition if you’re a resident of Great Britain (England, Scotland or Wales). If you live in Northern Ireland, The Isle of Man or the Channel Islands, then we’re really sorry but you shouldn’t enter as you won’t be eligible to win, due to different regulations in those places. 

    Do I have to be available to answer my phone to win?

    Yes, you’ll need to be available to answer your phone when the competition closes on 26th August 2022 at 3PM 

    What number will you call from?

    We can’t guarantee how it will display on your phone if we call you. It could be ‘unknown’, ‘withheld’, it might show a telephone number, or display in any other way. 

    What can I win?

    One person will win £30,000 cash prize

    Can I enter by phonecall?

    No, text and online are the only ways to enter 

    I have sent a text to enter but haven’t received a confirmation message.

    There are many different reasons for this. It could be due to insufficient funds, a Premium Rate block, a monthly cap that’s been exceeded, or a problem with your mobile phone network. You’ll need to contact your network about this:O2: o2.co.ukVodafone:Vodafone.co.ukEE: ee.co.ukSky: sky.com/help/home/sky-mobileThree: three.co.ukVirgin: virginmedia.com/mobile 

    Why are my messages not sending in the first place?

    If messages are not leaving your phone, then they haven’t reached us and won’t be included in the draw to win. This isn’t something we’re able to affect, so you’ll need to contact your mobile phone network (using the contact details above), and they’ll be able to advise you further. 

    I tried to enter online via Win+ but my entry failed

    If you selected ‘pay by mobile’ but your entry failed, there are many different reasons for why this could be. Not all mobile networks support this kind of transaction – it’s only available on O2, Vodafone, EE and Three. Otherwise, it could be due to insufficient funds, a block, a monthly cap that’s been exceeded, or another problem with your mobile phone network. You’ll need to contact your network about this. If you entered via PayPal and your entry failed, you may have insufficient funds in your account. Please contact PayPal if in doubt. 

    I was a winner on another Capital competition recently. Can I enter?

    In the last six months, if you’ve won a competition from any of Global’s brands, including via radio stations and websites – winning either a prize valued at a thousand pounds or more, or winning more than one prize of any value - your entries won’t be eligible until any exclusion period has ended. If we’ve still not answered your question, check out our full list of Premium Rate FAQs here

    Hi @Comping_Rich
    I'm wondering if it's Harry Styles ? (there's some very similar words attributed to him here, again for Capital Radio)
    Mind you, I'm really not that familiar with Mr Styles' voice - I've listened to a couple of interviews and I think the accent is the same (when he's talking to English people that is, when he talks to Americans his accent changes completely!)
    Best win ever: Trip to the Galapagos Islands in 2010

    Think you could be right.
