The Prize

1. The prize is available to one winner. The prize will be £10000.00 (the “Prize”).

1. The Promoter is not responsible for any additional costs and/or expenses in relation to the Prize (without limitation), other than any specifically listed as part of the Prize above and for the specified periods of time (where applicable).

1. Entrants may only win one Prize throughout the duration of the Prize Draw Period.

1. Each valid entry received within the Prize Draw Period will be allocated a number. These numbers will then be placed into a random number generator on the first working day following the end of the Prize Draw Period and one number will be drawn at random to determine the winner. This process will be observed and verified by an independent observer. The selection process is final and therefore no correspondence will be entered into thereafter.

1. The winner will be contacted via social media direct message within 3 working days of the Prize Draw Period ending. The Promoter will use the handle supplied with the entry to contact the winner and will not be responsible if the contact details supplied are incorrect. It is your responsibility to ensure that the information you provide is correct and that you check any junk/spam email folders (where applicable).
2. The winner will be asked to confirm their name, address, and that they accept the Prize by replying to the Promoter. They will also be asked to send a photo of proof of age (passport, driving licence or other official form of ID). If the winner cannot be contacted within 3 working days after the first attempt to contact them, then the Promoter reserves the right (at its absolute discretion) to offer the Prize to another winner who will be selected at random. No alternative prize will be awarded to the original winner.
   
   
3. If the Prize is not claimed by the winner, for any reason, it will be forfeited. The Promoter reserves the right (at its absolute discretion) to pick an alternative winner if the Prize is not claimed by this deadline and this alternative winner will be selected at random. No alternative prize will be awarded to the original winner.

1. In order to receive the Prize, the winner will be required to provide their bank account details to the Promoter. The Prize will be transferred to the winner’s own personal bank account only. Upon receipt by the Promoter, the Prize will be transferred to the designated bank account of the winner within 14 (fourteen) days. The Promoter will not be held liable for incorrect bank details being provided and in the event this occurs, a further Prize will not be transferred to the winner.

1. If the Promoter subsequently discovers the winner is ineligible, has breached these Terms and Conditions or is suspected of engaging in any other foul play or unethical conduct then the Promoter reserves the right (at its absolute discretion) not to award the Prize to the entrant and may award the prize to another entrant who will be selected at random. Where this occurs, the original winning entrant agrees to return the Prize (at his/her expense) immediately to the Promoter. No alternative prize will be awarded to the original winning entrant.

 

1. If the Prize offered is unavailable, cancelled or suspended due to circumstances beyond the control of the Promoter, the Promoter has the right, but is not obliged, to offer an alternative prize of equal or greater value to the face value of the Prize. The winner will not be entitled to any monetary equivalent or compensation for any costs or expenses incurred or suffered in connection with taking up the Prize.

1. There is no cash or credit alternative and the Prize is non-transferable and non-negotiable.

1. In all circumstances, the Promoter's decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
