Knows his draws

I've followed charity draws for a long time, so I know what to look for. This one sets out its prize fund and the good causes share clearly on the site, which is more than most do. My entries were logged the same day and the payout records match what they publish each month. Nothing unusual in the way the account is handled, just a well run draw.

sorted but slow to reply

Honestly it does the job, but I had a question about a missed payment and it took them three days to reply. The answer was fine when it came, just a bit slow for something I needed sorted quickly. The price is about what I expected for the draw. Would be a better score if the support side were quicker.

Needed something low effort

Needed something low effort to support a cause I care about, and this was the easiest I found. I've been a regular for a while now and it still runs without any fuss. Renewal is automatic and the entries go in each month on time.

needed a quick way to give back

I needed a way to put some money towards a local charity without faffing about with a cheque, and this fitted the bill. Signing up took me a few minutes on my lunch break. The confirmation email came quickly, though I did have to chase the first payment reference once because it didn't show up for a day.

First time, mostly fine

This was my first time entering, so I was a bit unsure what to expect from the process. The sign up was easy and the confirmation came quickly. The one thing that put me off was that the monthly reminder email went to my spam folder for the first two months, so I nearly missed a renewal. Once I'd set it to come through to my main inbox it's been fine since.

Been playing for years

I've been playing the weekly draw for about six years now and the ticket renewal is always painless. Entry came through straight away and I've never had a problem with a payment going astray. The monthly winners page is a nice touch too, and I like seeing the local causes they support get a proper mention every week.

Does the job

Quick review from my phone. Signed up in a few minutes between meetings and the entries have gone in since. Simple, does the job, the price is fine. Nothing to add.

Easy to sign up

Signed up on my phone in like two minutes, which was dead easy. Didn't need to dig out loads of documents or anything. Got my entry confirmation by email straight after and it's been running smoothly since. Would do it again.

Tried a few before settling on this

I tried a couple of other draws before settling on this one, mostly because the others had clunky sign up screens. Compared with them, this is much cleaner and the entry takes seconds. The price per entry is about the same as the rest, so the layout was the deciding factor for me. I've been happy enough with the monthly updates by email too.

renewed my entry by phone

I renewed my weekly entry over the phone last month, as I still prefer speaking to someone rather than fiddling with the site. The lady I spoke to was patient and took her time with me, and she made sure I understood how the draw worked before she confirmed everything. I was grateful for that. It all took about ten minutes, and my confirmation letter arrived in the post within the week.

Not as cheap as the national one

Compared it with the national lottery and this works out a bit more per entry, which I didn't expect. The draw itself is fine and the prizes are decent. Just wish the price had been clearer when I first signed up, because I only noticed it on the payment screen.

Still the best way to play

Honestly, this is still the best way I've found to play a lottery-style draw in the UK. I've been with them since they started and the entries have always gone through without any bother. The customer team have always been polite whenever I've rung with a question about my account.

Better than the others

Tried a couple of other draw sites first and this one's way easier to use. The sign up is quick, the app is nicer and the entries show up straight away. Prices are about the same as the rest, so the app is what swayed me. Would stick with it.

cheap to get into and the cash turns up

The first thing I noticed was how little it costs to get into a monthly entry, which suits me on a budget. I set up a standing order and it's come out the same each month since. When I had a win, the money landed in my account within a couple of working days. Nothing else to report really, I just keep paying in and checking the results.

bit of a wait for the first one

Got my first ticket entry set up quickly on the app, but the confirmation email took a fair while to turn up, like a good hour. Once it came through the account showed everything properly. A bit annoying but nothing major, so it's still worth a go.

Wanted to support the hospice

I wanted a regular way to support our local hospice after my mum spent her last months there, and this was the easiest route I found. I've been entering for a good few years now and the draw has never once let me down on the day. Renewing is simple, and the money goes where it's meant to. I'm happy to keep going as long as the hospice keeps doing the work it does.

needed a bit of fun

Needed something fun to do with my mates on a payday, so I signed up for a draw. Took about two minutes on my phone. Entries have gone in fine and I like seeing the winners list every week. Easy, nothing to complain about.

Better than the others I tried

I've used a few of these draws and the difference here is the app. Compared with the others the screens load quicker and the account page is easy to find. Prizes and the price per entry are roughly in line with the rest, so the app was really the thing that made me stick with it.
