10. The winner(s) will be notified by the Promoter by telephone within 10 days of the Selection Date and will be given details of how to accept their prize. Reasonable efforts will be made to contact the provisional winners, but it is each winner’s responsibility to respond to the Promoter’s telephone contact. There will be up to three attempts to make contact. Failure to make contact within 3 working days will make any claim invalid and the Promoter will then select another winner using the same random process.
11. Each of the five £1,000 Prizes shall be paid by BACS transfer within 28 days of confirmation of the winner’s valid bank details. These details will be requested from the winners once they have been selected and have responded to the Promoter’s telephone contact, notifying them of their win.
