08009889901

Just received a call from CLC Resorts & Hotels saying I have won a free holiday for 4 for entering a survey 6-12 months ago (which I do not remember doing). Googling the name brings up many stories of this being a guise to hardsell a timeshare.

i was called today that i have won a holiday so i rang the number and also recorded the call and i found out what the catch was,you have to go to one of there number of exhibitions and they will go through a time share holidays and also book your holiday.i should have known there would be catch,so i decided not to go to the exibition.gave it a miss.

said that a holiday had been won after filling out a questionnaire 18months ago, gave a number and reference code, but after looking at google can see that it appears to be a scam. thanks.

got a call saying won a holiday for four, after filling in questionnaire,asked what the catch was said no catch, gave me this number to ring  08009889901, googled it, and got this site, thanks, won't be ringing them. Draw closes 29/06/08,so how can i be a winner on 25/06/08!!

Called from 01268885650 after doing an on-the-street questionaire a couple of weeks ago. Told that I'd been "lucky" to be chosen as a winner of a holiday for four in the UK or Europe that could be taken any time in the next 18 months. No mention made of time share. Given the number 08009889901 to call and a reference number. Googled for the number and found this site. Thanks. I won't be bothering.

I too have just received a call to tell me I had won a holiday and to ring 0800 9889901 to claim my prize.  I did complete a survey and was told I would be entered into a free prize draw to win a holiday!  At the end of the survey I was given a slip of paper and on the back it states the closing date for the competition is 29th June!

I asked the caller if it was anything to do with timeshare and very cagey she answered 'well yes we are connected to timeshare but you don't have to commit or sign up to anything' Yeah right!  I won't be calling the number to claim my prize.

Same thing - filled out a form at an airport. The guy did not care much at the time about specific details - just phone number and postcode and getting as many people as possible. When I got the phone call I asked him what the catch was and he tried to sound excited and said that there wasn't.

Of course I then googled it and brought up this. I suspected something was up as the guy had an Australian accent, sounded really thick and was basically reading the scam off a piece of paper. He was not helped by the fact that there was the loud noise of the call centre going on behind him, full of all the other evil nozzers that were doing this to other people of the Joe Public!!

I actually at first thought that the phone number was the scam = ie being charged a stupid rate for calling it. However I recognised the 0800 freephone start so knew it had to go deeper than this.

Victory to the prudent!

just got a call from from a girl saying that I filled in a form on my offers.com which i dont recall doing. Claiming I had a won a price of a free holiday and all I had to do was ring 08009889904 quoting ref number 6219. When asked what was the catch she said " there is a booking fee of £29" then i asked is it invloving timeshare and she said " we do have connections with time share but you don't have to take part in any of our offers.
I hate these companies and not really sure how they got my number.

Got a call saying I'd won a holiday after filing in a survey.
Rang the number and gave the ref number but because not over 25 I'm unable to be put forward for the promotion! haha glad I googled the number and saw this!

I got called with this number today saying I had to call them back and give the quote 19RoyalShow. Glad I googled the number first. I won't be giving them a call. Thank you people.

Last Sunday Brands Hatch, girl with a questionnaire, today I've won a holiday for 4. Imagine my dismay that all my holiday entitlements for this and every other year are all used up not looking at timeshare (ever). If anybody wants to go instead of me you can have it for a fiver.

We just got a call, then we were directed to call the frephone 08009889901 and its trying to sell a timeshare.  They give you a small holiday for free if you go to the presentation about a timeshare. Not worth the hassle!

Thank heavens for google and this web sie.

Same story as below but not going to even bother calling back the 0800 No now I have had my suspitions confirmed that its time share

Got a call from a marketing company saying we had won a holiday for 4 including free flights etc from a questionairre we completed at the Taste of Birmingham food show in Cannon Hill park,told to ring 0800 9889901 and quote reference number, checked number out to find its time share ............. thanks but no thanks

said I had won a holiday by filling in questionaire at a race meeting I went to.

As all of the above, got a call at 19:40, had to ring 0800 988 9904 and quote a given code by 20:00 that evening to claim a free holiday for 4 to a luxurious foreign resort etc etc.  I asked how many others had won the prize - I was told I was the only one in my area (whatever that means!), but there were 50 other winners in the draw and that the prize is genuine etc etc.  Shan't be claiming...

my friend posted a positive comment on here - shows your a bit of a con too - it aint here!

as the above, recieved a call saying to ring 08009889904 to recieve my prise which was a weeks hloiday. Gave me a reference number to quote. The number which rang me after doing 1471 was 01268557600.

all of u r mugs - cheap holiday - im happy 2 hour session, then got my holiday - moneys tight at mo - your just followers! - thats why i am succesfull - cos i dont follow ma na na na.

I had the same experience of all your comments above on this 'win' last night, having entered a prize draw at the Alexandra Palace Motorcycle show.  I too won't be attending the exhibition.  I didn't know about the exhibition - they said I needed to go to Tottenham Court Road to prove my identity.  They have also upped the ante, as they said I would receive a £50 Argos/John Lewis voucher for attending - this is when I googled their telephone number, and found out about the timeshare scam.
