I won but never recieved the prize..

Last month I won a competition on talkSPORT for two tickets to UFC in Newcastle.

talkSPORT said UFC would be sending tickets out direct but despite emailing them my concern as the date fastly approached I didn't recieve a reply or my prize.

Sour graps I know but frustrating when it's so rare I win anything.

    Phone talksport up - maybe they would do something to compensate you?

    I would contact talksport also. I won a prize for tickets for Noddy and when they did'nt turn up I emailed, they sent me other stuff instead:)
