E-mailed the Help Desk about my 'win' in coming in top 100 in October, and got a replay saying they were looking in to it.

They clearly dont want Dot on the phone every 10 mins :lol:

Don't mean to moan again but.......got my email confirmation on the 2nd jan saying I'd get my cheque within 28 days and guess what it's been longer than 28 days....one step forward two steps back......

chrispyb · **Posted:** 01 Feb 2012, 21:48

I still havent received one cheque yet (am due 4) despite being told that the first would be sent 2 weeks ago :roll:

I must say that although I've spent a few quid on SDT in the past,and enjoyed a good return on my investment,it's hard enough to win these prizes without finding it's like getting blood out of a stone to get your hands on your money.
Even when they post the cheques,they say you must allow 28 days to receive them. For heavens sake this is 2012,not 1912.
I've just entered the 1 free team this season,so I'm not affected,but it's extremely unlikely I'll play at all next season,as it's just not worth the hassle.

Wouldn't it be for finishing in the overall monthly top 100 with the same team.

ISSACA · **Posted:** 22 Feb 2012, 11:22

£100 cheque arrived today but no indication if its for my week 10 or week 15 wdt win

Why cant the sun add a brief letter like last season along the lines of well done here is your cheque for wdt week 10...........or would that be to sensible

the number on it like 100689 will relate to the confirmation email for the win so you can work out which week it is for ok.

Edmondson · **Posted:** 22 Feb 2012, 12:38

I received WDT 015 cheque today, so I'd say most likely it is for that.

I think it looks like they have processed the next few weeks maybe of winners, but are struggling with the queries, winners from way back that haven't been paid.

In the 'your ref box' all I have is my surname so no idea, same in the 'our ref box' any other numbers on the cheque do not relate to the 2 ref numbers I have been given from the confirmation emails :!:

Why is does winning a prize at Sun Dream Team cause such a headache

Good question for Footy perhaps...

Still heard nothing about my £100 October monthly, after the initial 'passed it onto the technical wizards' sh!t !

Where's that geezer who came on here with that tripe about sorting things out?

He has left The Sun.

Rumours have it that he now works for The Telegraph.

They're going backwards again.........how hard is it to send out a few emails and then cheques...

I wonder how many ppl who enter wdt and aren't that clued up and might not know they've made top 100 and never receive a cheque/confirmation

sleuth · **Joined:** Sun Apr 03 2011 **Posts:** 2549

Still no cheque from a January win

Still no confirmation from 2 1/2 weeks ago for my other WDT win.

Bet Charlotte Church has her 600 bags in her account though.

Got emails today confirming weeks 20 and 22 wet wins.
Nothing about the monthly though :mrgreen:
