    Thankyou all. I genuinely mean this, your kindness means a lot to me xxx

    The tears have subsided now. Just a dreadful feeling in my gut that is refusing to leave :(

    I am hoping this post will at least help others like me that didn’t realise you are still entered in every draw xx fingers crossed for somebody else.

    This phone call was at 4.25. Withheld number :)

    I heard your call yesterday and was absolutely devastated for you. Everything crossed that something super special comes your way in the near future.
    Comping from May 2012 :D

    Thank you to all that post & contribute, I think you are wonderful, I could not achieve without your help :)

    I can only imagine how you’re feeling, liamell. I didn’t realise you’re still entered from prior calls either. Hopefully, a bigger prize will soon come your way x

    Neither did I until recently when I started listening to Magic when the lucky entrant calls are made. The presenter mentions every time after each call that all entries get rolled over regardless of whether there is a winner. This means that statistically we have a much higher chance of winning Bank of Magic than Cash Register and Cash Dash if we enter the maximum amount of times every day! :-)

    16:25? Hmm that is interesting as the calls are aired around 16:50!

    Aww what a nightmare for you. I'm sure that many people who've entered this previously didn't realise that you were automatically entered in every draw too, but that's little consolation for you. Hope a really nice prize is heading your way soon.
    Good luck for 2024 Comping! Be lucky!

    Carla I'm so sorry for you as well. I was listening to the radio yesterday and heard your call and felt so bad for you! I also had no idea that entries rolled over as I only enter on days I know I can answer the phone in the afternoon, I would be gutted if I missed a call because it was on one of those days!

    As a poster has said above, I'm sure it was about 4:50 that it was broadcast so it is interesting you got the call about 4:25.

    Hopefully something else will come your way now, sending you lots of luck and best wishes xx

    Eek, I know if it's a roll over the entries carry over too so that's why your entry was still valid.


    Hope you're feeling better now

    The entries carry over for every day of the competition whether it's a rollover or not - So if you make 3 entries a day Mon to Thurs you already have 12 entries for the Friday draw without entering again.

    Thankyou ever so much...my partner keeps saying "its ok, we didn't have 20 grand yesterday anyway so we will be fine" :o and all I keep thinking was if id just opened my laptop and thought on my feet quick enough we could be debt free today. xxx

    Yes most of the radio ones are edited down but I would have thought they would have played it sooner than half an hour after the call. Maybe too busy laughing at me...I must have sounded a right mess :o
