    I think they may have covered themselves in the t and cs. Bless you - I can imagine you feel devastated.

    I don't know what advice to offer. However, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that someone on here will be able to give better advice.

    thanks for your replys i have had email back to say the prize has been forwarded to someone else but if they don't respond then she will call me and let me have it back!

    Thanks ginjim yes thats her but her answerphone is always on!

    I've also said in email that there T&C Say every effort will be made to contact the winner, (and as far as im concerned as they had my address and phone number they should of written to me or called me but didn't ) so i don't think they made every effort!

    We shall wait and see now fingers crossed the other people are on hols!!!

    Thanks guys

    From a gutted sue!!!!
