Waterfront Media CIC will not be liable in the event of telephone or text message entries not received as a result of network incompatibility, technical faults, or otherwise.
4.2 Entries by text message must start with any applicable keyword as published or announced for the specific Competition followed by a space and be sent to the applicable shortcode as advertised on-air. Please be aware that shortcodes along with keywords may change from Competition to Competition. Entrants should only submit one text message entry for each competition (unless otherwise stated for the specific Competition) and Waterfront Media CIC reserves the right to discount multiple entries.
4.3 For the avoidance of doubt, you should follow the on-air instructions regarding the texting of Competition answers extremely carefully as Waterfront Media CIC cannot guarantee Competition entry for mis-spelt or incorrect text entries.
4.4 A text message to the Competition shortcode or a telephone call to the Competition line will normally cost ten (10) pence plus the standard rate for your mobile or telephone provider unless expressly stated in the specific rules for the Competition. You should check with your network provider for more details. For the avoidance of doubt, the cost of text messages from different mobile phone service providers may vary.
4.5 No purchase of any kind is necessary for free prize draws and in all Competitions which are free prize draws where an offer is made for participation involving a premium rate telephone call or reverse billed SMS message, alternative non-billed entry mechanisms will be made available. You should refer to this Site or on-air messages for the relevant Competition for details of the no purchase necessary route to entry.
4.6 Text messaging charges incurred as a result of entry to the Competition(s) will be paid via your mobile phone service provider and will be detailed, where possible, on your mobile phone bill. The exact name for the service may vary between operators and should be confirmed with your provider if you have any queries.
4.7 Any person using a telephone which is not his or her own should ask for the permission of the person who pays the bill before sending a text message or telephoning the competition line.

In the event that an entrant does not answer their telephone when contacted by a representative of Waterfront Media CIC in order to participate in a Competition, Waterfront Media CIC reserves the right to select another entrant to participate in the Competition.
4.9 Where the competition can entered by phone, the relevant phone number will be given on-air at the time of the competition.

5. Claims to prizes
5.1 In order to enable Waterfront Media CIC to correctly identify genuine claims and to eliminate non-genuine, deceitful or fraudulent claims, evidence of Competition entry must be made available if requested for the checking of such claim. In addition, Waterfront Media CIC reserves the right to request proof of identity, age and address in the form of your passport or driving licence, and proof of your address in the form of a utility bill. Waterfront Media CIC may also carry out an interview in order to validate such claims. Interviews may be by telephone or in person with you and may be recorded. Waterfront Media CIC may also ask you to provide an in-studio recording to compare to your on-air win to provide proof of vocal identity. If you refuse to provide any of these details or to participate in, or answer all questions raised in, such an interview without good reason then your place in the Competition will be treated as invalidated and the Prize may be withdrawn.
5.2 If Waterfront Media CIC becomes aware of any fraud, deceit, misconduct or similar action during or in relation to a Competition which relates in any way to a claim, then that claim will not be met unless it is proven to the satisfaction of Waterfront Media CIC , that you had no actual or imputed knowledge of such fraud or deceit or similar action. For the avoidance of doubt (and without limitation), if you provide an incorrect name, age, address or other incorrect information in relation to the entry, then Waterfront Media CIC reserves the absolute right to treat that entry as invalid (whether or not such information comes to light before or after you have made the claim). If the fraud, deceit, misconduct or other action is only discovered after the Prize has been released, you undertake to return the same (or provide compensation) to Waterfront Media CIC forthwith upon notification by Waterfront Media CIC .
5.3 Failure to claim a Prize in the time or manner specified for the relevant Competition will make any claim invalid.
5.4 Winners of Prizes will be notified within 28 days of the relevant end date of the Competition. Prizes must generally be claimed within 28 days of that notification.

After notification, the onus is on the winner to collect their prize, via the prescribed method, within the necessary time frame.
