Greatest Hits Radio run cash competitions for vast amounts of money with no effort required other than answering your phone if you get lucky with the miniscule chance of winning. Currently they appear to cost £2.50 to enter, but to comply with the law, they must provide a free route of entry and Greatest Hits (and other Bauer Radio stations) are careful with their phrasing to make sure that most people don't realise there is a free route to entry - after all who would pay £2.50 to enter a competition when others are entering for free (up to 150 times!). Also, the 0330 numbers they used have to be standard network rate phone calls and therefore ARE normally included in phone bundles. (Over 150,000 entries must be gathered from people to make the current £350k competition profitable).
The automated call takes about a minute to read a brief set of terms and confirm the number called from.
Please make sure anyone you know entering these cash prize competitions is aware that there must be a free entry route. Note the Phone Entry No Purchase Necessary entry

Please make sure all your friends know that these Bauer Radio competitions have a free entry route, and they should never spend large sums of money when someone else with an hour and a half to waste can get 150 entries for nothing but their time (no interaction required).
