Competition Prizes

Don't want to fall out with anyone but wondering who to contact regarding the Vuelta Pais Vasco overall prize. Do the prizes just take a while to be sent out? Have used the game contact email address and tweeted Dave, but still no answer.

If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

I have now received my prize for the Giro – thanks Dave!

I still have not received my buff from the Tour de Suisse though.

Plus I am also waiting on some sunglasses from a more recent race, but I can’t remember which race/stage!  16

Cheers.......Maria

Who are you chasing? Who runs the game? If Wiggle sent the prizes then why can't the folks tell the prize winners what is happening regarding their prizes? There is no way it should take this long to find out so I say something is amiss.

I might have missed a post regarding this but it isn't clear to me who has the prizes to chase.

What I do know is that I emailed the address provided for info about the game and have been completely ignored. What kind of service to a paying customer is that?

maybe that's why all the prizes are taking so long if they're being delivered to everyone's desk!!

spoke to wiggle today and they told me that everything up to the tour de france has now been sent out, and that they're working through that and subsequent races. so if,in a week's time, you still don't have your prize from the giro/dauphine/whatever, say so on this thread

Dave,

A few more weeks go by and I'm still waiting. At the risk of going on too much, I've said so before on this thread, emailed road.cc. No reply. I know it's only a stage win but if you're going to offer prizes are my expectations unreasonable?

Dave, I'm still awaiting my Tour De France prize!

Wiggle said they ship the prizes to road.cc and then u send on to the winners.
Any idea when I can expect the glasses?

Merci!

That's good that Wiggle got back to you but i guess we're still none the wiser as to what's causing the major delay and when we can actually expect to receive our prizes.

Joelsim - glad to hear your glasses have arrived!

So Wiggle got back to me.
At the end of each competition, a free of charge order is placed, which gets shipped to road.cc. Who I presume then send on to the winners.

I've just had a word with them, they are going to look into it and get back to me.
As I told them, it isn't reflecting well on Wiggle, currently have lots of disgruntled cycling fans that are not happy!

That is rubbish tbh! Dave, think you should have a word with them.
If we were paying for them, then they'd be sent out next day.
As soon as the prizes have been worked out, wiggle should just class it as an order, and give it the same priority!

Hey guys - I live in Australia and have won a couple of prizes - one as far back as the Giro, but nothing received as yet. Is Wiggle sending to Oz? Cheers.

My tour of Romandie jersey came a couple of weeks ago, but not sure I put down size L - just need to add one or two sizes - or hope the current regime will get me to the required size
