tryin to contact them over winning 2 scrath cards, however not 100% sure its one of those crappy dodgy ones where although you have the matching symbols they still say you havnt won but you charged £10 to find out, no thanks lol

Unfortunatly that is a desktop extension which cannot be reached.

There is no other claim number on the website other than the 0906 155 3282

Has anyone found an alternative cheaper numbers for 0906 numbers to claim cash prizes for matching 2 or 3 numbers ? These competition are created by Purely Creative. I know this subject has already been discussed in the forum. The numbers cost £1.50 per minute to dial and last 6 minutes. So it would cost £9 to phone them. Four times I matched 3 or 2 numbers. All request to dial a different number. The numbers are :
0906 158 2402
0906 158 2495
0906 155 2975
0906 155 3131

It suggest an alternative way to claim by texting which is even more expensive. Receive 6 texts at £1.50 each and sent texts charged at operator's normal rate. It provides a 5 digit number. Can probably text them from my PC using using the free texting service. But it doesn't accept the 5 digit number. Only accepts the 12 digit mobile number.

Rather than use the premium rate numbers, I've successfully claimed a "prize" from Purely Creative using the postal route, in the past.  It usually involves sending them an SAE, and they then send back a code number, which you have to put on the game card, and post it all back to them.  There's often an additional stamp required somewhere along the line, too.  Read the small print on the game card VERY carefully.

Of the twice I bothered, I won a holiday each time.  Just for me.  If I want to take anybody else, it's £££ ... So, I'm afraid, I didn't take them up.  At least it didn't cost me that much, claiming this way.

Generally, count on winning the lowest cost (to them) prize that you can see in the list.  Then decide if it's worth the hassle.

Welcome to the forum

I reckon this is a legitimate use of a premium rate number. You are going to be extremely lucky to get an alternative  number. By using premium rate numbers enables them to pay out these 'fantastic prizes'.

Nothing is free I am afraid,

I don't agree it is a genuine use of a PRN ,as assuming the scratch card has been purchased, then a winner should not need to phone a PRN to claim the prize, (otherwise it is just the equivalent of an increase in the scratch card price by stealth), although it is doubtful that a geo number will be found.
