The maximum number of Lotts allowed per person is stated in the Terms and Conditions and is selectable at time of entry for each prize draw.

Once you have answered the timed question correctly and are successfully entered into the prize draw your odds are at least the maximum number of Lotts stated in the details of the draw. Your odds will increase if you purchase more Lotts or other contestants answer their question incorrectly.

Example
Maximum number of Lotts stated 1000
10 Lotts bought
Therefore, your olds are 1000:10 or 100:1

If 10 people answer the question incorrectly, they will not be entered into the draw and therefore the total number of Lotts in the draw is 1000 - 10 = 990.

Therefore, your new odds are 990:10 or 99:1

Each prize draw runs for a fixed number of days, and the duration of each is specified on our website.

In the unlikely event that all the Lotts are not sold the prize draw will still happen, it just means your odds of winning will be better than when you entered.

All purchases are final. You will not be able to receive a refund for a purchased Lott, nor withdraw from a prize draw after you have entered.
