Competitions Discussion Thread Part 5

catz747

The lists for end dates are stickied to the top a few days before they close, I think the posters of those just trawl through - as far as I know

hello there, new to comps. Not sure which thread to put this in....

Any advice on compiling lists for future dates? Have searched through but couldn't find info on how to do this.... ie to looks at all comps that will end on the 17/03 i put in the search box E:17/03, but this doesn't work.
Any help/ links would be great.

Thanks already for your help.:rolleyes:

Hi there, and welcome to a grrrrreat forum!

Unfortunately, you can't search by end date, but I think that people are still posting a thread with all of the comps ending on a certain date a few days before that date.

Otherwise, you'll have to trawl through the pages!;)

Hi Folks.

Could someone offer me some advice please. I won a comp last month for an overnight stay & Tickets to a London show. Unfortunately my wife has now got to go in for an operation so we are unable to go. I have friends that would love this, can i give to them, any other alternatives or will i have to "let it go"

Any advice on this would appreciated

You would have to check with the company who are providing the prize as to whether it is transferable or not. Most 'holiday' prizes are non-transferable.

Hi, and hope the OH is gonna be ok.

Depends on the comp win T&Cs. If you've got the tickets, just pass them on. However, I'm guessing that the hotel will be booked in your name(s).

If it were me, I would contact the PR people who contacted you and be honest with them. If they are even half decent, they would be sympathetic and try to help.

Good luck, and I hope everything works out ok.
