Thanks for the post
Good luck everyone, being a night owl this one isn't for me still asleep, so go for it.
Is anyone getting a reply with their SMS?
We tried yesterday and nothing came back?
no replies
thanks for the comp and good luck to all
Thanks for the comp.
Does anyone know the earliest they've rung someone when the comp was run last time?
I think it was 7:30 & 8:30 Sydney time, most mornings wasn't it?
Thanks kelster.
I got an SMs reply - Virgin
I just heard on the Today Show that they are going to donate all the cash from this promotion now.
So save your calls everyone.
What a great idea. Good on them.
I thought they said that the comp was still running but will be ringing winners off air as they didn't think the calls aired would be appropriate under the circumstances. Not cancelled just not being aired
Ok, that could actually be correct mate, will listen out for more information
Maybe they will call the winners for today but give the rest away?
gogo was right they were ringing them off air
This is the sms reply I received today.....You've entered Today Show's Great Cash Giveaway.Due to news breaking events,our next call is delayed until TUE 17/03/09 Be by your phone for your chance to win.
Yep i got that too
Maybe this comp could be moved to another section till the 17th of March
i just heard them call someone this morning........
Really?? Response I got from them was it would resume on 17/3/09
Must leave my phone back on then!! 
Really?
That's a bit unfair when they sent a sms saying it wasn't starting again until 17/3/09 
Edit: snap startsmall
Lol...
Thanks ReallyAddicted....seeing as how mine got posted 1st, is that a WIN????!!
Thank you 
I just read on line that someone has just won the $30000
Hope it's a Lottoer
I watched them phone her, was quite funny as her husband was sleeping & they got her to go in & wake him & tell him, He swore, so they were telling him your on tv watch the language!
Thanks for the post. I saw that lady and her family on TV,seem like a lovely family and well deserving of the win. Hope some of the Lotto family have
a win too
bugger i didnt know this was still on, just missed a call from a private number and no message, do they leave messages for people who dont answer, i
havent entered for two weeks, and the entries roll over i think, ah gee!
onooo that would be terrible zazu!
We are 1,5 hour behind, so i don't know if its out or not
Person answered the phone at 8.30 and won $35,000.
do they just ring one person each time, like 7.30, 8.30
or keep trying until they get a winner at each hour?
my call was 8.22am
arghhhhhhhhh
wow what a great way to start a week.
They only ring one person at each timeslot, if that person doesn't answer they give them $500.
Has this finished?
