Contact helpdesk if the problem persists . I suspect they may have underestimated the demand and the mailbox is full. I guess you guys will just have to pony up some cash and make an eligible purchase. (or try again later on this evening). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exciter1 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Don't worry... move along, you're not missing anything here. I'm sure some folks scripted this and now face a ban for being too eager, so I have that going for me, which is nice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

citymorgue Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I remember yesterday going through the Lego website on the customer service section, and there was a blurb about how last night for a few hours there would be problems because of some update they were doing. It included issues with VIP members, signing up new people, etc. So I bet that's what the issue was for most of you talking about it.

Miami Bomb Squad Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Every time there's a contest like this, I always wonder if making a purchase gives you a better chance of winning.Or the odds are the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citymorgue Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Supposedly the odds are the same. You get an entry whether you purchase or email. Essentially, there's no better chances. I don't think Lego cares if you bought something or not. In this case, you get up to 30 total entries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbg108 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Every time there's a contest like this, I always wonder if making a purchase gives you a better chance of winning.Or the odds are the same?When me and my sister were kids I remember she thought the same thing. One time she decided to order about 20 random magazines from Publishers Clearing House because -- she said -- "You'll never win by doing the free entry". We still didn't win. And after my parents found out she, specifically, lost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciglione Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 But do you have to purchase something everytime/everyday you want to enter? On Lego Germany is states you have to buy something from the DC Comics line to be able to enter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezzzuk Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 But do you have to purchase something everytime/everyday you want to enter? On Lego Germany is states you have to buy something from the DC Comics line to be able to enter.I think the free email entry only applies to the US and Canada. Their T&C includes the following clause"Alternatively, to enter without making a purchase, send an email with the subject “Bat-Pod” ...."

Their T&C includes the following clause"Alternatively, to enter without making a purchase, send an email with the subject “Bat-Pod” ...."Giving "contestants" a chance to win without making a purchase ("No Purchase Necessary") allows companies to run giveaways without running afoul of the criminal laws geared towards illegal lotteries. Pretty complicated stuff but at it's heart, unless you're running a lottery through a legal entity, it is against the law to make people "pay to enter a contest" (they call it "consideration"). I am assuming that it how it works in the US, that's how it works in Canada.Lotteries must legally return a certain % of the proceeds to the people who play... if LEGO holds a giveaway contest where only a purchase made you eligible, how would they satisfy the condition of giving a certain % of the proceeds back to those who entered?

chezzzuk Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I think this also applies to the UK. So not sure how Lego is getting away with this lottery! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezzzuk Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 unless the requirement to be a VIP member to enter makes it legal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
