Logging onto M&S first didn't help with "competition closed".

I've written to them about the "closed to entries". I'll see what they say.

I used the M&S mobile app and it let me enter this with no issues.
3 -
I can’t even see the competition in the app.
Also getting “closed to entries” on desktop, too.5 -
As I suspected but confirmed by M&S:
"The prize draws you've linked is not available to all Sparks members. Some competitions and offers are made available to selected Sparks customers only, so it's possible for one customer to see a competition while another customer is unable to access it. "
