Hi,
I won an ipod & DVD from a Now Magazine Comp. The WEM said the prize will be sent by a marketing company and could take up to 28 days to come. I recieved the DVD this morning but not the ipod, is this normal practice? Should i email the marketing company or wait for the 28 days to see if the ipod turns up? Any advice would be great

hi i have had that happen to me but they did send the other part of the prize separate to the dvd i would wait till the 28 days are up and if you still aint got it then send them a freindly emailReplies to posts are always welcome, if they are done in the correct manner. If I have made a mistake in the post, I am human, tell me nicely and it will be corrected. If your reply cannot be nice, has an underlying issue, or you believe that you are God, please post in another forum. Thank you0

No advice really as I am a newbie to comping really, but I won £250 of appliances, and have received most, but waiting on the multicombi microwave/oven which is worth £100 of the £250, just keep emailing them and pestering them.... ive been waiting ages too lol
I would email them and just ask if they dispatched the wins together, or should you be expecting the ipod shortly. No doubt you will have to sign for delivery of this - best ask nicely first, there's no harm in emailing

I've even had an email from a PR company saying 'oh so & so will follow' & it turned up earlier than the other part of the prize

Do hang on for the 28 days & then a friendly email to say thanks for the DVD & do they have any idea when the iPod will be dispatched is definitely the way to go
Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out
