after days of trying, I finally was able to get 4/5 entries. My facebook entry won’t register even if I UNLIKE then LIKE again. The error message is “This field is required.” I have cleared my cache and temp files. Still, no luck. I even went to the link you posted above.
Hi Claudia,
We have reached out to Promosimple with a question about why this may have happened. If you have issues with subsequent contests please let us know.
Thank you!
I don’t have a form to enter the contest on this page. Where is it? Thanks, CP
Hello,
If the Promosimple widget is not loading, you can try deleting your cookies and reloading the page. If that does not work, you can find the entry form on the Promosimple site. Here is a direct link: http://giveaways.promosimple.com/win-two-round-trip-tickets-to-south-africa-on-south-african-airways-expiration-date-feb-28-2014/
Thanks! I follow both of you on Twitter (@2brno2b) but don’t want to authorize an app to post tweets for me, so the entry form won’t recognize that I follow you. :-( Pinned, though: http://pinterest.com/pin/13229392627911003/
Hi Elizabeth,
You are correct that the entry form will not recognize that you follow, and unfortunately the form is what we use to randomly pick a winner. I have asked Promosimple why they require some of the terms on the Twitter App. I was told that all of that wording is from Twitter, and they have no control over it, but Promosimple assured me that they would never access a user’s direct messages and will never send a Tweet without being initiated by the user clicking on a Tweet button. Not sure if that assuages your concerns, but I thought I would pass it along. And thanks for Pinning!
I subscribed to your newsletter, followed on Twitter, like on Facebook, and tweeted on Twitter(GiveAwayCity), and there is now where to show where I did these things. Just a box that shows how many days left to enter and how many entries, and my entries so far and it still shows zero……..hummmm
Hi Marcia,
Sorry you’re having issues, there are a couple things you can try to do to address the problem. If you did not use the widget above to enter your contact info and follow Johnny on social media, that is what you have to do to enter. After you enter your contact info a second window will appear in that box to confirm your liking/following. Alternatively, you can try clearing your recent cookies and reload the page or try a separate e-mail address in the contact info. I hope one of these things helps!
good deal…..
$580 X 2 = $1,160!!! OMG! Any other airline available?
I just get errors from PromoSimple when I try to show I follow on Twitter.
We recommend that you clear your cache and try reloading the page. Alternatively, if you are running ad blocking software, sometimes this will disrupt widgets, etc. Try turning that off and reloading the page.
I went to Johannasburg in 1985 on business and my wife wants me to take her. Great chance with your contest.
I tried gaining the 4 extra entries to your contest on your website for following on twitter etc. but I keep receiving error messages. Can you help? I did clear my cache so that is not the issue. Thank you so much.
Awesome trip
Thank you for this contest. My trip to South Africa in 2009 is one of my favorite trips ever, and I would love to return and explore more of this amazing country.
Oh, wanderlust! You fill my heart. Winning would be amazing. Great contest.
