    Does it take long, do they want much details?

    I haven't had a chance to try yet - but judging from similar NPN's from other comps I doubt it probably just want your name and number

    good stuff guys


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 816 ✭✭✭eliza64


    They ask name address date of birth and phone number. And which promotion you want to enter !
    All than and i still didn't win today.

    Eh, what other Coke promotions are there around to enter?

    I called them today nice lady on the phone very pleasant didn't mention any other promotions - apparently they have to physically open a can or bottle there and put the code through online - they then tell you if you've won or not - no luck today:(

    Found a new site. http://www.morethanjustagame.ie/

    There's a competition for rugby gear/tickets. Seeing as it's a new site, the chances of winning could be good.

    Hows it going didn't no were to post.

    Just after winning a Nintendo DS in the YOP giveaway, they sent me a text message asking for my details which i sent them and got a replay saying i would receive prize within 28 days, then a few minutes later received another text asking me to post 0.50 cent to receive my prize.

    Just wondering if anyone has won anything with this giveaway

    My daughter won a DS first week of this comp, got same text for name and address then one asking for 50c. Didn't send it but DS arrived 2 days later by Courier. I'd ignore it. meant to call and complain myself, bit of a cheek asking for 50c, I'm sure postage more than that.
    Lovely new turquoise DS here though, she's still drinking 3 a week in hope of getting another for best friend:D

    NPN competition but you have to send a letter requesting the unique code, so it's not the best.

    For some reason the NPN option on this one is for NI only which doesn't seem fair. Had a few flutters - no luck but you've got a good chance of winning on this one considering a bottle of Yop isn't too expensive and they seem to have an average of 50-60 entries per hour

    Nope its not.. Iv spent so much on yops now just to get the codes. In most of the hourly draws only about 60 people enter. Iv never won tho:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,191 ✭✭✭The_Hustler


    Then why is it in this thread?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 151 ✭✭Energizeer


    I'm gunna rob some yops. That'll be a NPN.

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 31,117 ✭✭✭✭snubbleste


    Did anyone get an NPN code from the fullcolourgaming.com site?
    I sent off for a few in July and still nothing back!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,068 ✭✭✭Magic Monkey


    Same here, nothing back. But in the T&Cs it states: "The Promoter cannot accept responsibility for free entry applications and/or promotional codes lost, delayed or which fail to be submitted for whatever reason." :(

    you send your codes to 53799
    plus you have to text YOP in capitals before your code
    so a sample would be
    53799

    YOP 5DDUF75FFH5
    good luck!

    No don't pay it - just text back your name and address and you'll have it in 2-3 days
