The skill question
Every entry answers one short multiple-choice question. This is ours, and there is one attempt.
- Choose one of 0: . Exactly one is correct.
- One attempt per person. Your answer is final once submitted. A wrong answer ends this entry, is not charged, and does not affect any other competition.
- The same question, with the same options and the same one-attempt rule, applies to postal entries: write out the answer you choose in full. A wrong answer online or by post ends your entry to this competition by both.
How it is drawn
Draw schedule- Entry closes Tuesday 1 September, 19:00, online and by post alike. Nothing is sold or entered after that.
- You can hold up to 1,400 entries, counting bought, Pass, bonus, referral and postal entries together.
- The draw is never earlier than the second business day after close, so postal entries that arrived in time are processed and in it.
- The entrant list is published 24 hours before the draw and frozen at that point.
- The draw is streamed live on Thursday 3 September, 20:00, provided at least 80% of the tickets are sold.
- Below 80% the draw moves to the next scheduled slot. Every ticket number carries over, entry reopens, and the new date is emailed to everyone holding a ticket.
- The winning number is generated on camera within the range of tickets sold, then matched to the published list on screen.
- The winner is contacted within 24 hours and has seven days to choose the prize or the cash. After 21 days without contact the cash alternative is paid to the account on file.

The free postal route
How to enter by post- No purchase, no fee, and no obligation to buy anything now or later.
- Each postal entry has exactly the same chance of winning as a ticket bought online, and goes into the same draw on the same terms.
- One maximum number of entries per person, published on every competition page, covering every route: paid tickets, Pass tickets, bonus and referral tickets, and postal entries all count towards it.
- Where a ticket costs less than second-class postage, each postal entry is credited with as many entries as that postage would buy, within the same maximum.
- The same skill question, the same answer options and the same one-attempt rule as online. Write one answer only — more than one, or one that is not among the options, is a wrong answer. A wrong answer by either route ends your entry to that competition by both. Incomplete or illegible entries are void.
- You need an active 7Dreams account when your entry is processed, and the details you write must match it.
- Entries that arrive after a competition closes, or after its last ticket is allocated, are not entered — the same as an online order at that moment.
- Postal tickets do not rank on the leaderboard, so they cannot win the Top 3 cash.
- You must be 18 or over, and entering must not break the law where you live. We verify before paying any prize.
