“Capital’s £250k Christmas” on The Capital Network, December 2022 – Specific Rules

12 December 2022, 10:00

1. The “Capital’s £250k Christmas” promotion (‘Promotion’) is organised by Global (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions). The Promotion will run every day from Monday 12th December 2022 to Friday 23rd December 2022 on the Capital Network, including the Capital Text Club. Global is the Promoter.

2. IMPORTANT: THIS PROMOTION IS ONLY OPEN TO RESIDENTS OF GREAT BRITAIN WHO ARE LOCATED IN GREAT BRITAIN AT THE TIME OF ENTRY AND IS NOT OPEN TO RESIDENTS OF NORTHERN IRELAND. The Promotion is subject to these Specific Rules and the General Terms and Conditions which are available here (together, the ‘Promotion Terms and Conditions’). Entry into the Promotion constitutes acceptance of these Specific Rules and the General Terms and Conditions.

Details of the Promotion:

3. To enter the Promotion you must listen out for any song by a specified artist (the “Capital Christmas Cash Track”) as heard on FM or DAB between 8am and 4pm, following the instructions of the presenter(s), and then follow the steps as described in clauses 4 to 8, as applicable. The Promotion will begin at 10am on Monday 12th December and close on Friday 23rd December 2022.

4. The specified artist that you are required to listen out for on air will change from one round of the Promotion to the next at the discretion of Capital and will be announced on-air by the presenter(s).

5. A song (or standard Capital edit of a song) must be played in full to count as Capital’s Christmas Cash Track. For the avoidance of doubt, elements of advertisements, short clips, clips in news bulletins, extracts or background music do not constitute Capital’s Christmas Cash Track. If the artist to identify is listed as a ‘featured artist’ on a song played on air, not the principal artist, this will still count as Capital’s Christmas Cash Track, as long as the artist features on the Capital edit.

6. There are two ways to enter the Promotion: Via SMS Text Message Online via Capital’s Win+ Platform

7. Entry via SMS Text Message:

7a) To enter the Promotion by SMS text message, you must text in when Capital’s Christmas Cash Track plays, as heard on FM or DAB, following the instructions of the presenter(s) on air.

7b) You must send a text message with the keyword WIN to 83958 (the “Text Message Line”). Text messages will be charged at £2 plus one standard network rate message. The text system may not recognise any other format of the keyword.

7c) You will have 5 minutes from the start of Capital’s Christmas Cash Track to enter. Entries received before or after this time will count as having a wrong answer and will therefore not be eligible to win but may still be charged.

7d) On entering the Promotion by SMS text message, you will receive a text message back which confirms your entry and which invites you to take part in an offer for bonus entries, whereby if you enter the Promotion additional times within the same Promotion round, you will receive additional entries into that Promotion round at no extra cost. The details of this offer will be included in the text bounceback and a full breakdown of how these bonus entries work, as well as tariffs and costs is detailed in the table below in clause 9. The additional entries will be automatically included once you’ve submitted your paid entries and you will not need to text again to claim these. It is your responsibility to ensure that if you respond to this offer, the text lines for the Promotion round are still open when you do so. The bonus entry cycle resets with each round of the Promotion.

7e) For a full breakdown of all entry options, tariffs and costs, including bonus entries available for SMS text message entry, please see clause 9 below.

8. Entry Online via Capital’s Win+ Platform

8a) To enter the Promotion online (“Online Entry”), you must use Capital’s Win+ platform to enter when Capital’s Christmas Cash Track plays, as heard on FM or DAB, following the instructions of the presenter(s) on-air.

8b) You must visit the ‘£250k Christmas’ page on Capital’s Win+ platform (http://winplus.capitalfm.com), and confirm on the entry form that you wish to make your entry.

8c) You must then complete your entry by selecting the number of entries you would like to purchase and completing the payment journey through your chosen Payment Services Provider (PSP).

8d) You must complete your entry, including payment within the entry window of the Promotion round, within 5 minutes from the start of Capital’s Christmas Cash Track. Entries received before or after this time will count as having a wrong answer and will therefore not be eligible to win but may still be charged.

8e) For the avoidance of doubt entries purchased on Win+ will be entered into one round of the Promotion only, as is the case with entry by SMS text message. All entry options, tariffs and costs, including bonus entries are detailed in the table below. For any SMS text message entries, you may also incur a standard network charge for each message you send to us. To check this charge please speak to your mobile network provider.
