    Yep that is a good idea, but I won them over 7 days ago (you have to reply within 7 days) and gave them the reply text then, they did text me back to say that they didn't recognise the address and to resend it, I did resend it in a slightly different format, they didn't send me another text to say that they didnt recognise the second attempt, so I assumed it would be OK, but everyone else has received thiers, so I am assuming that my address was wrong because it was a house name instead of a house number, I really dont want to lose out on this one. I would still like to be able to contact them, ANY IDEAS HOW I CAN EMAIL OR RING THEM PLEASE.

    i got my fridge in just over a week but it took my friend 3 weeks to get hers..

  • I had winning confirmation text reply over 3 weeks ago - but still waiting for my fridge.
    Hope it arrives soon - I used a house name when I replied.
    Hope that's not the problem.

    Doesn't matter, luck of draw if its your time but you must include DOB, although technically the prize you're winning doesn't have a age restriction, but its the link with Smirnoff

    i think it might be as they cant tell who you are from a house name.. those that have had that problem in the past havnt been able to send a reply if not including a house number..

    it asks for your house number and post code that way they can find your address
