Have a great time mate, funny it wasn't through The Guardian competition after all that faff. Thanks mate. Yeah I am genuinely still amazed nobody off here won the guardian competition. I think we were all sure at least a few would with the dedication of doing it every day! Hopefully some of the other competitions come in for you! Don’t give up hope, there are still some competitions that haven’t even been announced yet like BBC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There usually is though. Which Somerset newspaper? I always thought it was Western Daily Press, but they don't even have a website anymore.

carrie2 Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 The day of the resale I made a list of companies who have previously had Glastonbury competitions/may have them this year and these are the remaining ones who haven't as yet: Oxfam Shelter Somerset live Radio 1 1xtra 6music Western daily press Time out Signature living Metro newspaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 I'm always amazed how often this happens: I've just had to draw another winner for an efests competition (not the glasto one) because the person who won doesn't want the prize. Why do people do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do people do that? I enter in the hope I can in someway work around the terms and conditions ... and then realise I cant .... I might have worked out a way of bypassing some but not sure how possible / ethical it would be ... this is for other competitions by the way ... not the efest one as I didn't enter as its fairly clear I have tickets already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The email message gave me a (long) list of newspapers, and said to anticipate that a competition 'may well' come from that direction. I didn't question the author of the email about percentages of that possibility, or if they had specific knowledge. I know that the details are scant, but only mentioned it so that people were aware of the possibility, and kept their ears to the ground. In fact, it was a little more than that, in that it was a veiled appeal to those efesters in that area, to keep a look out for such a thing, on our behalves.

Sounds a bit like The Guardian competition. If you ended up buying tokens on my behalf in any future competition like this I'd of course transfer you money to cover the expense.

I hear what crazyfool1 has said, but do seem to recall being able to enter one of those competitions myself, when I lived in Birmingham.

tarw Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) That was how I read it but only skimmed. Was thinking the same. Might be wriggle room like there was one of them but didn’t think it was worth trying if it meant them getting disqualified for multiple entries Edited May 24, 2019 by tarw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
