Even so, it would be possible for EE to be sticklers where the Co-op weren't... but I agree it allows some ambiguity! Reckon I'll enter it, what's the worst that can happen? Yup that was me , Co-op were really good about it and two others are happy. As Nobody interesting said the t&cs are pretty wooly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My decks had been put away for years, I dug them out specifically for that Social comp! Yes awesome days indeed. Same here - I swapped out Ibiza for festivals about 10 years ago as I can still just about handle them. Ibiza would kill me off! Will have a listen later.

As Nobody interesting said the t&cs are pretty wooly. EE are very strict with the t&cs for the staff competition for Glasto tickets - but then they know exactly who the winners are. When I worked there in the Orange era there was a competition for tickets for Reading (before it became the exclusive preserve of post A level teenagers). The people who won had no intention of going or of giving the tickets to someone who really wanted to go, and sold them. There was general disgust all round and t&cs were tightened after that. However as has been pointed out, they don't seem to stick to their own rules in comps open to the public. Also a PAYG sim would have no customer name associated with it, so presumably you could enter in anyone's name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dartmoordog Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Just looking at the EE competition page and at the top it mentions "Pay monthly benefits" Does this mean that it's not open to PAYG customers? Can't see anything in the T&C's that mention it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levitz Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 So, I have an EE sim in my iPad and a monthly contract but it's data only not calls so, while I have an EE number it can't receive calls. So despite being an EE customer I can't enter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DareToDibble Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 So when do we think the Guardian winners will be contacted? I’ve been checking Twitter to see if anyone has mentioned it but can’t find anything which I guess is a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The winners will be selected by way of a random draw from all entries received in accordance with these terms and conditions. The draw will take place on or after 19 May 2019. 10. The winners will be notified by email or SMS on or after 20 May 2019 and given details of how to claim their prize. If a winner does not respond to GNM within 14 days of being notified of their win, the winner’s prize will be forfeited and GNM shall be entitled to select another winner in accordance with the process described above (and that winner will have to respond to notification of their win within 14 days or else they will also forfeit their prize). If a winner rejects their prize or the entry is invalid or in breach of these terms the winner’s prize will be forfeited and GNM shall be entitled to select another winner. https://www.theguardian.com/info/2019/apr/16/glastonbury-readers-ticket-competition-2019-terms-and-conditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levitz Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 I had a missed called from an outer London number this morning and you can't call it back, hoping it was a scamming cold caller rather than the Guardian comp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mazola Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 I'll be amazed if we don't get at least one Guardian winner from here. Surely they haven't done the draw and told the winners but we don't know about it because it wasn't any of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick search on twitter for "glasto won" "guardian glasto" "win glastonbury" etc. etc. has nothing coming up, so until i see somebody winning i'll have my fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
