Win Your Way to Absolute Radio Live on The Dave Berry Breakfast Show Competition Terms and Conditions
TERMS AND CONDITIONS for “WIN YOUR WAY TO ABSOLUTE RADIO LIVE ON THE DAVE BERRY BREAKFAST SHOW” (the “Competition”).
These terms and conditions (the “Specific Terms”) for the Competition should be read alongside our general competition terms and conditions at: http://www.bauerlegal.co.uk/radio-competition-terms.html (the “General Terms”) which will also apply to this Competition. Where there is any conflict between these Specific Terms and the General Terms, the Specific Terms shall prevail.
1.Entry ROUTES and Costs
Entries are restricted to one per person.
Entry to the Competition is available by calling The Absolute Radio Studio on 0330 123 1215
Competition entry is free however, calls from landlines will be charged at the national rate. Calls from a mobile may cost considerably more.
2.COMPETITION MECHANIC AND HOW TO WIN
After a cue to call, telephone lines will open for listeners who wish to take part in the competition to call in on 0330 123 1215. Two callers will be chosen (at random) from those on the switchboard to proceed and brought to air – first ("Participant 1") and second spot ("Participant 2") will be allocated off air and this will dictate the order of play on air.
The Prize will be hidden in a box selected at random by the producer of the show. Participant 1 will select a random box numbered between 1 and 6 to attempt to locate The Prize.
If the participant fails to locate The Prize, Participant 2 is given the opportunity to pick a random box from the remaining options. This process repeats, alternating between Participant 1 and Participant 2 until The Prize is found.
Competition is also subject to additional terms and conditions available here: https://absoluteradio.co.uk/legal/competitions/index.html
