Summer Special 2 online entry form

Hi Lottie/Korky

Yes, the online entry coupon has just been restored, following a glitch that has had our techies scratching their heads for several days.

We're really sorry for the inconvenience to those of you who have been so quick off the mark to get your entries in, but you should now find it back in business.

Good luck with the comps!

Problem with form
Hi Steve I posted my answers about 45 mins ago, I was very careful, I didn't enter the 2 holiday ones, but did enter the others. The Adrian Edmonson one was put in the wrong place, and 2 were left out even though I checked them caefully before submitting. Thanks Julie

Thats Life Summer Special - answers muddled on confirmation
Iv'e submitted my answers for Summer special 2, but the confirmation screen has my answers all muddled up and some answers were not even there. For example Page 14, Page 40 and Page 50 all show the same Page 14 answer. The correct page 40 answer is now shown against Page 66. And some other answers are missing. Can you delete my entry and let me know when the form is working correctly. Thanks

Re: Summer Special Competitions

Once again, I'm sorry for the continuing issues that have dogged this part of our online service. The Summer Special 2 online entry page has been attended to again by our web team and, when I tested it just now, everything was working properly.

Fingers crossed: it should stay that way this time. It just goes to show that to err is human but, to really mess things up, you need a state-of-the-art computer.

The good news is that the scrambling problem was only affecting the on-screen display, and that your actual entries have been safely and correctly delivered to the database. So there's no need to resubmit your answers.

The page may occasionally be out of action today while we run some further checks. If you can't get in, please try again about an hour later.

Good luck, everyone!

Steve
