    We give away phones as part of my job occasionally to fans who support the brand. lately it has been "subscribe to our social media to enter", no purchase or real action required to enter other than subscribe / follow. We're just amassing more followers with this promotion. I went to contact a winner via Snapchat and discovered he wasn't following us. instant disqualification. So now instead of asking him if he wants an iPhoneX or Galaxy S9+, I have to ask him how bad he feels for not following us, which disqualified him.

    • did you announce it already on social media or something? why not just move on to the next winner who is following you?capn_ron
    • it was announced, then we found he had not fulfilled his requirements, the entry that won, he had revoked himself essentially.imbecile
    • serves him right. you should announce his mistake while announcing the new winner that paid attention. rub it in.capn_ron
    • pretty much the consensus in the office as well.imbecile
