Post by: Shambles on June 26, 2009, 08:30:00: What's the entry rules? Can I join?

I came soooo close to scooping a third share of the £55m Euromi££ions 3 weeks back (I got 5 numbers out of the 7) so I reckon I'm on a roll, or sure heading for one :D

Post by: Duckman on June 26, 2009, 11:10:05: A bunch of us from work are putting in a $25 card thing, not sure what it's called, I rarely go into lotto. But there is 3 times the chance of an aircraft landing on me, than winning, and a one in 10,000 chance in getting struck by lightning.

I'll back my odds on the lightning! :lol:

hey Shambles yes you can have a go mate through one of us, you just pick numbers or let the computer\ do it. the more $ you put in the more numbers you can pick. i've never been in it b4 but this time we will all be in!
last week it was for 50M but did not go off and because they got so many entrys last week they put it up to 90M if it don't go off this week, WOW

Post by: Dazzler on June 27, 2009, 11:40:32: Steve, you need to go here and follow the links...

http://www.tattersalls.com.au/index.html

But the site must be struggling to cope with the traffic couldn't get through just then...

I went in the 30 mil draw a few weeks ago but going to save my money this time.. Not much of a gambler..

Thx Dazz... you're not wrong about the slowness :eek:

I shall persevere, providing they allow non-Aussies to enter

Post by: Shambles on June 27, 2009, 12:08:41: So, what am I doing wrong?

I have registered and click the "play super 7's" game. I select 30th June and select 1 week 1 draw, which shows up as $3.80

(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y297/ShamblesX/1-8.jpg)

I select quick pick and get this...

Error 122 - Purchase

Sorry, the draw you selected is not available. Please select an alternative draw.

:eek:

EDIT: I emailed customer support. I need this $90m

Post by: Dazzler on June 27, 2009, 12:44:07: Click on the 90 million on the right hand top ..

It's not the pools it OZ lotto super 7 (draw 802)

I didn't know overseas "people" could enter :eek:
Title: Re: Who's having a go at OZ lotto?
Post by: Shambles on June 27, 2009, 12:46:50: Yeah I did that Dazz and it offers me the screen as I posted, and yes internationals can play (they ask which country you are in).

It might be to do with not having any funds in my account, but any lottery site that doesn't make it obvious how to add funds to an account doesn't deserve my business :P

I'll try again right now
Title: Re: Who's having a go at OZ lotto?
Post by: Shambles on June 27, 2009, 12:50:33: Ah right here we go.

Going thru the TATTS page lets me choose the draw at $1.10 but then says I can't enter from the UK

"Sorry, this product is not available for your jurisdiction.Please choose another product."

Ahh well
Title: Re: Who's having a go at OZ lotto?
Post by: Dazzler on June 27, 2009, 12:53:13: $1.10 :eek:.. I did a dry run.. and it was $13 something ... that's a Pizza or half a dozen beers (no way) :P

Post by: magicRob on June 28, 2009, 11:20:36: Buying lotto online is way more expensive than doing it at a shop.

$28 for 24 games online
$25 for 24 games over the counter! I know where I'm going...

Thank you for emailing Tattersall's,

Are you trying to purchase an entry in The Pools draw?

If not, please be aware that Tattersall’s are only licensed to sell The Pools in the UK, therefore you cannot purchase our other lottery games whilst in the UK, doing so would contravene our Terms and Conditions

Regards

Julie - Tattersall's Customer Support

Good luck to everyone who enters.

Remember, my not being in it gives you all a better chance :P

Title: Re: Who's having a go at OZ lotto?
Post by: ozsnowman on June 30, 2009, 13:29:20: Well, in the end the amount offered blew out to $106 million, and we ended up with 2 winners.................unfortunately not me :( South Australia and Queensland

There are at least 2 people in this country going off their nuts right now....$53 million richer apiece

Post by: Dazzler on June 30, 2009, 13:35:18: See, I knew no one in Tassie would win the jackpot (so I was one of the few not to buy a ticket.. :wink:)

Thanks for the update Snowman... :razz:
