The Strictly Spoiler 2017 Competition

Another new series of Strictly is nearly upon us and I’ve got a massive competition with even more chances to win than 2016. With three times as many prizes to be given away compared to 2016 this year’s competition is going to be huge.

Just like last year there will be prizes up for grabs each and every week this series. But I’ve got not just one prize, not even two prizes but THREE PRIZES available to be won each week. There is a £20 amazon UK voucher to be won on each of the three possible entry methods making a huge £60 to be given away each and every week of the 2017 series.

Just like last series all you need to do to get involved and win a prize is join the discussion. You can do so in the following ways:

Strictly Spoiler Website

You can join the discussion right here at the home of the strictly spoiler by commenting on any of the blog posts made during a promotional period

Facebook

Head on over to Facebook and Like The Strictly Spoiler and then comment on any of the posts made during a promotional period

Twitter

Head on over to Twitter and follow me. Then simply reply to any of my tweets making sure to tag @davejthorp and include the hashtag #StrictlySpoiler. You must tag me and include the hashtag otherwise I will not see your entry when I search for entries each week.

This competition is open to all UK and Republic of Ireland residents with the exception of any family members of the promoter.

Whilst entrants are permitted to enter the competition multiple times, should anyone be judged by the promoter to be spamming the comments system on this site or spamming on social networking sites in order to artificially inflate their number of entries, the promoter reserves the right to disqualify these entries. The aim of this competition is to promote discussion about the spoiler and Strictly in general both on this website and on the applicable social networking profiles. As long as entrants keep to the spirit of this it is unlikely an entry will be disqualified.

If a winning comment does not comply with the house rules or a user is banned for breach of the house rules a redraw may take place

Winners will be contacted by email or on the applicable social network and will be required to provide any details required to deliver their prize, and confirm their acceptance of the prize within 7 days of being contacted otherwise the prize may be forfeit. In the event of a prize being forfeit a redraw will take place and the prize will be offered to another participant.
Prizes will be delivered in 3 batches. Any prizes won during September/October will be delivered by the end of November. Any prizes won during November will be delivered by the end of December. Any prizes won during December will delivered by the end of January 2018. These are the latest dates people can expect to receive a prize and prizes may be delivered earlier than these dates at the promoters discretion.

Any personal information provided during entry or as a part of fulfilling a prize will only be used for the purposes of this competition and will not be stored beyond the completion, used for marketing purposes for the Strictly Spoiler or any other enterprise operated by Dave Thorp nor will it be passed onto any 3rd party with the exception of Amazon where it is necessary to fulfil a prize.

And the final 2016 winners are….

The Strictly Spoiler Competition is over for 2016 but I’ve still got a couple of winners to tell you about after the extended final week of the competition. So without further ado here are the final winners:

Congratulations to Rachel Steel on Facebook who won the final weekly voucher prize, a £20 Amazon UK voucher. Rachel also earned an entry into the monthly prize draw.

However that draw was won Tracy Buxton, also on Facebook, who has won the final prize of the series which is a Kindle Fire Tablet.

Congratulations to Rachel and Tracy and everyone else who has won a prize this series. I’ve given away £650 worth of prizes this series (slightly over my £500 budget). I’ve got more competitions planned for the 2017 series with even more chances to win than this series (assuming the BBC doesn’t do something crazy like a live results show) so there will be plenty more chances to win in 2017!

If you’ve won a prize since the last batch of prizes was sent out on 24th November 2016 you will receive your prize either just before or just after Christmas.

Congratulations again to all the 2016 winners and best of luck to the rest of you for the 2017 competitions!

Strictly Spoiler Spot Prize – Twitter Vs Facebook: The Finale

The ultimate smackdown is back for one last time! Twitter will once again be taking on Facebook to decide supremacy and this time stakes are absolutely massive as the largest prize I will be giving away this series is up for grabs.

There is a massive £100 Amazon UK voucher available for one user of the winning social network. Last time Twitter just pipped Facebook by a score of 226 to 224 taking an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the series but Facebook is hoping to win the final smackdown and regain some pride.

Just like the previous smackdowns all you need to do is like/react/share/retweet the hell out of the spoiler post/tweet once it comes in later tonight. Whichever network generates the most likes/reacts/shares/retweets by the start of the not live results show will be declared the winner and one user on that network that liked/reacted/shared/retweeted will be selected at random to win the prize.

On Facebook like The Strictly Spoiler and then like/react/share this post for your chance to win

On Twitter follow me and then like/retweet this tweet for your chance to win

You need to make sure you like The Strictly Spoiler on Facebook or Follow Me On Twitter as you must be liking or following these profiles to win a prize!

Best of luck and may the best social network win!!!!
