Winalot Comp CON!

Theres a comp going at the mo with Winalot, where they print codes on the backs of labels, and you have to check them at their site http://www.winalot-dog.co.uk/ to see if you have won.
Now I have bought at least 3 x 6packs, and in each one, on every can, IS THE SAME CODE!! 20440. so dispite buying so many cans, I have still had only one chance at winning!!
No doubt they have something in their T&C to cover themselves, but I dont think this is right! You should get a new code with every can, or at least every pack.
I've just emailed them, but I'm not holding my breath. Has anyone else had the same problem?

If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all

Its because there are various prizes, and there'll be a code for each prize; ie;20440= not won, 11111=voucher etc.
Lots of competitons are done like this, its probably so that they dont need to make and track a million different codes.I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.0
