Dear Forumite,

We are holding a christmas & new year charity raffle in aid of the following cancer charities

• Macmillan Cancer Support.
• Cancer Research UK
• Marie Curie Cancer Care

The raffle will be starting on December 9th 2012 and finish on January 31st 2013

All money raised (less around £50 expenses and our paypal fees) will be split between the three charities


The rules are

1. You must be a forum member - TEF Newbie or above

2. You must have made 1 post or more

3. The tickets and prizes are Non - Transferable

4. All tickets are £1 - You may purchase one or as many tickets as you like

5. Maximum number of tickets on sale 20,000

6. The winners will be announced in February 2013 after the raffle close date

7. All ticket money raised less our costs and paypal fees will be split three ways and go to the above named charities.

8. Raffle tickets will be open to everyone except forum owners, administrators and prize contributors

9. You must be 16 years of age or over and reside (or have residence) in the United Kingdom

10. You must use our raffle system (link below) and paypal to purchase your ticket/s

11. You can only purchase 1 ticket at a time on the system so for example to purchase 10 tickets you have to make 10 separate purchases

(please leave a few minutes between purchases otherwise paypal doesnt seem to send the correct payment info to us)

As of 29th Jan we have had a software update and you can now purchase multiple tickets in 1 transaction

Do you get a ticket number on purchase.

Can you make it so you can purchase more than 1 without multiple log-in to PayPay.

 

[Barx]

Great feature for great causes. Some decent prizes to be won some come on guys, get your tickets, support the causes and you never know you may end up with a nice post-christmas pressie.

p.s.

If I win the IPad can I swap with someone for something more meaningful. :slap

 

[Barx]

By the way, for those that don't know me, I'm not knocking the brilliant prizes. I just hate Apple and their IOS devices.

 

[batty]

You are not like me Barx I like apples its oranges I am not keen on that unpeeling seems like hard work. Yes a big thank you to the sponsors really nice prizes available.

The tickets are numbered as far as I know, but I am excluded from buying one to check! The proof I saw was numbered.

It was a condition of the licence to hold this (that takes £40 away from the charities, for no apparent gain) that the tickets were sold singularly. Not a big bother logging in a couple of times, is it?

My thought was if you wanted to do 10 or 15, I can see the bank kicking the transaction as suspicious due to multiple same amounts of £1.

Answer is to do a couple every now then i suppose.

Did not notice ticket number, how do you check ?

Edit - Found it as Item Number in transaction.

We cannot at present do a quantity, this is down to the raffle software.

If I win the volt stick do you want to do a swap?......Obviously some cash adjustment will be required, so If you want to give me ,say, £25 we should be quits!

Seriously, not knocking the prizes I really want/need/desire/will get an iPad.   Clutching at straws and waiting for price to plummet after Xmas.

However I will still be purchasing tickets :coat

 

[alpha spark]

I'm lost without mine dropped it the other day on top of my steelies screens shattered its away for repair

I miss it so much trying to do every thing on my iPhone just isn't the same lol

 

[welshwizard]

Well done guys,

I have just bought some - well worthy cause(s).

The raffle number can be seen in your Paypal receipts, guys.

Good luck all.

 

[alpha spark]

U only have to fill out your details once if you want more than one ticket every time after u just redo your pay I'd

 

[M107]

I have purchased my first batch.

 

[Atty]

I purchased 5 tickets yesterday and each transaction was acknowledged by Paypal but only 2 tickets acknowledged by TEF. Is this important or will all my tickets be entered?

They have been approved now.

It seems to flag some people.

Thanks for the support
