I’m PAYG tesco (O2) and purchase a monthly rocket pack which includes a set amount  of minutes and have not been charged for the calls. They have been taken from my minutes allowance.

Good Morning 

Apologies if this has been asked already. 

Can you confirm how many entries I can make by telephone? On the terms and conditions I have read 30 entries by text, 60 entries online and 150 entries by telephone. But I have also seen a figure of 120 entries somewhere in the various posts on here or on the competition post. 

Also if entering by phone how will I know I've reached the limit. Does it tell you? I am trying to count but I may have miscalculated by one or two entries. 

150 phone entries for this one and yes, it tells you when you've reached the maximum number of entries

Thank you LizB62. I can stop writing down each entry now!

....all 150 done. What an absolute labour that was!

I'm on Plusnet, which uses the EE network, and the calls (all 150 of them, I got there in the end) are included in my unlimited minutes.

When you get to the maximum number of entries it tells you as soon as you dial, you don't have to wait for it to go through the whole spiel first.

Anyone who hasn't done 150 feeling a bit like they've got no chance.

Yeah the people that paid £2 an entry!

I'm entering from an Apple phone and have a little tip which makes calling that many times much much quicker! You can make two calls at once and swap between the calls to press 1 when it asks you to confirm the number you are calling from. Sure Android models do the same?

Great tip for next time. Wish I had known that earlier. Anyway Good luck.

Having only entered once (via phone) I accept I have a very low chance of winning, in statistical terms pretty much as low a chance as those who have spent an hour or more entering 150 times. It is similar to those who buy multiple lottery tickets for the same draw, it does increase their chances of winning, but not by a statistically relevant amount.
