Where did you see this? Can't see it being the case, as how would you know you've won to claim it if they didn't contact you? 

EE T and C's:

7. If the Promoter cannot contact a winner after 3 attempts, an alternative winner will be randomly 
selected. The Promoter will not leave a message when it attempts to contact potential winners

This is from The Guardians T&Cs

Fair play! Everyone will have been notified  by now I'd say. Strange that people say they were called and not emailed or texted like the above says. You reckon they're bullshitting? Stranger things have happened...

Did you win the guardian competition today? What time do you get the call?

No sorry 3 years ago.. It was approx 4pm when I received the call and it was a London 0208 number

Who knows, I’d hope people wouldn’t lie about this. The only hope is that they haven’t notified everyone yet and are doing some tomorrow. We’ve seen 2 people win those tickets so far from what they’ve said.

I'll cling to that straw...

I’m clinging on to the hope that if you asked to be contacted by email will be contacted together with those already contacted by phone?

Two of my friends won tickets with the Guardian back in 2010 which was amazingly good fortune, what a buzz.

So gutted for you all. Been reading this thread and was totally convinced that there would be a few winners on here with all the dedication.

I have two mobiles both with EE sims and happy to enter on behalf of someone on here. Yes massive clutching at straws but ye never know.

I’m @Padgey friend who won tickets in the Guardian competition! To say I’m happy is an understatement! I was surprised they phoned too as they said they would email or send a text! The phone number started 02033

I'd say yes to this generous offer too, but I don't think the tix were transferable were they?

0203 is used for newer London numbers I think, so entirely possible that it changed

I can enter. I believe they are transferable or I'll put one of your names on entry. If by some madness I/we won would you share the two together? 

Or do I have to choose one of you for two? I'll enter when I get home. Just driving back from Manchester.

I can also do this. Didn't think about it until @H.M.V just suggested it. Will do it for you as I failed in the resale for ya!

EDIT: I assume I enter with my details, and then the tickets are transferable?

DOUBLE EDIT: Checked the T&C's....it says non-transferable......? Can just give it a go anyway. At the very least I'd win one ticket I guess

I need a pair of tix, so think you'd need to choose, if I understand the question ?

I’d happily share but understand if that doesn’t work. If you have 2 sims and phones you could enter one on each?

That would be great, thank you! Yeah I think that’s how it works. If it’s like the Coop one you can then give the prize to someone.

So in the spirit of fairness, if i enter for @Ozanne and Sass enters for you? As ozanne pinged me first? Is that ok?

Aaah ok cool....may as well give it a shot. But as I told you on resale day, I'm not very lucky! First time for everything!

Always worth a go!

Happy to split however you want ? I tried for @Ozanne in the resale, but wouldn't want to jinx him by swapping over now!

We're entering with our own names for now anyway, right?

I'm gonna ask @Ozanne to dm me. I'll put their name down and my number. You can do the same for your entry. My phones aren't in my name anyway. One is for business and one personal.

Yeah let’s stick with it this way.

 

I think that how it works.
