Winner not announced

Options
I entered a face book  competition which ended 31st August but they have not announced a winner and wondered if someone could message the page to ask who won?   https://www.facebook.com/AFFORDABLESOFAS

    They do not have to say who won or tell anyone except the ASA as an entrant can refuse to have their details disclosed (GDPR) and some sites take the easy option and simply don't disclose details

    Having a look they said yesterday "...so many entries we counting entries will
    Update once done"

    @geminilady A lot of competitions will notify the winner and check that they have received the prize first before announcing them, or at least accepted to take the prize.
    It can take up to a week (5-7 working days) to announce the winner or select one. So I wouldn't question it until at least the 11th of September.
    2143 comments but only 930 shares, it looks like sharing was one of the options, so they will need to check they followed the criteria too.
    Some companies will only announce the winner if you write to them, depends on the terms and conditions.
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.
