Hi, I post on this form on 7th Oct I won spa competition with radio, and been told its worth over £500 and now there agent got in touch and what they offer me is only worth £149 I'm not being ungrateful but they told me same time
(you’ve won is valued at £500 or more, so as per our T&C’s you are unable to win another Bauer Media prize for the next 6 months)
Which is not right,

I would certainly go back and challenge (politely)1

Have you looked on the Spa's own website? Maybe the Red Letter Days offering is massively cheaper than a direct booking if you didn't get it as a package.ehsangreat said:Hi, I post on this form on 7th Oct I won spa competition with radio, and been told its worth over £500 and now there agent got in touch and what they offer me is only worth £149 I'm not being ungrateful but they told me same time

They don't have to use the reduced price to decide the value especially if the higher price was in place when the competition was running but even so the £258 is still low compared to £500+ - as already stated it maybe more expensive going direct but having looked at one of the clubs in London (Chiswick) which I assume would be one of the more expensive, £500 still seems too high for something without an overnight stay and or meals
I don't enter Bauer comps for prizes valued at £500 or more (apart for cash) unless it is something I really want and the value is somewhere about what I would have to pay to buy it.2
