Well.. my point is that
3 comps.. 2 at the max atm have been scams..
well it looks like that anyway as theirs no proof of winners
and im not on about simple room comps for badges..

example 1
http://www.habbo.co.uk/articles/560-win-a-qa-with-demi-lovato-in-london

The winner was supposed to be announced on thursday for the prize to be given on sunday. Winner? No.

example 2
http://www.habbo.co.uk/articles/451-gwen-stefanis-harajuku-lovers-is-here/in/archive

Win a trip to london shopping etc.. No winner announced once again. Also notice the topshop/topman vouchers, wonder if they was reused in the comp above? :eusa_clap

Example 3
http://www.habbo.co.uk/articles/188-usher-answers-your-questions/in/category/celebrity_visits

I never believe this prize was given out either..


Hm, its strange.
But yeah just pointing out a fact about habbo comps with a real prize never actually getting recieved :)

Well when I won a wii from Habbo, it took 6 months to actually get it.

When I asked why it took so long they said they had to wait for the fantastic four company to send it to them before they could send it to me.

So maybe same sort of situation?

There are just too many competitions for them to keep on top of which is their fault anyway. REVOLUTION.

When I won the PSP and a game it took 5 months to get here however Flynn500 was very nice and in my opinion wasn't there fault as why it took so long.

Nothing new.
They've always taken an absolute age to issue prizes and sometimes deny for months that it ever happened!

Best call is to get in touch with flynn or one of the other PS staff in-client or at least over the help tool. Be nice and ensure them that although you're in no rush, you do expect to get your fully earned prize.

Also, when you enter competitions, save the t&c and comp. details on your computer so you can refer to them when you're forcing your prize out of staff. There's also the 'way back machine' http://www.archive.org/web/web.php which shows web pages how they were. This can be useful and indisputable evidence.

Habbo seem to be bad with prizes - although I do know that they do give them.

Kardan won a holiday - I think he's been on it? Not sure.
