Number availability is shown on each prize draw. You can select any number that has not already been purchased. Alternatively, you may choose to randomly select your tickets.

Can I enter any prize draw on Diggers Dips?

Once you have registered, you can purchase tickets in any prize draw.

When is the prize draw?

If the final ticket in a prize draw is sold before 2pm, the draw will take place that same day at 7pm. This is to give all entrants a chance to catch the prize draw live. If the final ticket is sold past 2pm, the prize draw will take place the next day at 7pm. However, this is a just a rough guideline. If there are numerous prize draws due to be drawn, then they may be allocated a different timeslot (e.g 7:00pm, 7:10pm, 7:20pm). Entrants will be notified with the time of the draw by email.

How is the winner decided?

All of our draws are broadcasted live on our website, using a third-party random number generator (www.random.org). Once the final ticket has been sold, all ticket numbers will be entered and a winner will be drawn in real-time. You can watch any draw live by clicking on the draw when its due to take place. All entrants will receive an email notifying them with a time for the draw.

How do winners receive their prizes?

As soon as a winner is announced, the prize will be despatched the very next day by our preferred suppliers, Lesiure Promotions Ltd. Delivery will be made by DPD and will require a signature on arrival. You can track your parcel by clicking on your DPD Tracking ID sent to your registered email address.
