    No phoebemail for me - I entered & was thanked by 08.01 - amazed how quick it was at the time dunno what went wrong for me.......hold no hope for tomorrow's mail, todays hung til about 08.04.....

    :confused:

    Hi I am the same was really surprised not to have won when I know for a fact people entering minutes after me had won :confused:

    I have been told that apparently when their server gets really busy they open up their back up server so those just hitting submit then will jump the queue on the other server whilst we sit like !!!!!! in the 1st queue. Does this make sense????

    I don't know how true this is but nothing else makes any sense, so to glamour it is 1st come 1st served. Maybe we need to hold back a minute or 2 so we can jump onto the back up server lol :rotfl: :confused:

    Oh and I am not complaining its just weird how it works out each morning

    All you that are saying you entered by 8.01...............is that by the clock on your pc/laptop/mac or one on the TV/Radio or an online one............I'm only asking as my pc's clock is about 2 and a half minutes out so I use a combination of the news and an online clock (which I refresh every few minutes to keep right) to know what it's time to start refreshing the page

    I also use a combination of times and have hubby checking sky news every 10 seconds lol. It has to be down to their servers, although you would think that once you have the thank you page it would have definitely gone through :confused: perhaps they have blocked me :rotfl:
