I won tickets to a concert, but the radio stationed denied me the tickets.

Ok there was this contest right where you send in a picture and if you win, you get concert tickets to see Janet Jackson. So I didn't check my e-mail until today and I get the e-mail saying I won to call them. So I called them and say "hey I'm calling about the picture contest." The DJ say's, "oh yeah thats done already bro." I was like "oh yeah I'm the one who won the tickets." And he said "Oh, I dunno bro HAHAHAHAHAHHA" and hung up on me. I mean the radio stations they treat their listeners like crap. If it wasnt for us where would they be? Don't they need us in the first place?

Jesush, what a lame DJ.

That sucks. I'm sorry. Maybe you could fax him a printout of the email? Also forward the email to his email address at the radio station. Also call and speak to the manager. That would be a cool concert to go to. Is it that one I just saw a commercial for that is being shown live from Hawaii? ;)

try calling back at a different time. Maybe someone else will listen to you. one would think that they would give you a way to verify that you are the real winner in that email

yeah i guess through the pics you would be verified, but the picture i sent in wasnt of myself. it was of a friend.

even though, i still think i shouldnt be treated the way i did.

Ok, the pics I sent in wasnt of myself, but I won anyway. Also the picture of the female who won was a picture of a little baby. So I don't think that it's fair that the other person got the tickets, cuz I'm sure that that little baby isnt going to the concert. So, I still think I should win the tickets fair and square.

What do you think?

The pictures I sent in was pics of my friend who no longer lives near me. He's a funny guy and had some funny pics so I sent them in.

So how old was the email once you read it? When is the concert? Over?

Either way, Sounds like you didn't respond fast enough, your loss.

I saw her here in Tampa a few months ago, and she is indeed tasty.. :)

No, you can go up to the station and ask for something else though. If you get a confirmation email, you should expect to get the tickets. Still go out and complain.

So you won tickets, but didn't respond in time before the concert was over? Man, let it go.

Look at it this way: you still won, you just didn't get the prize.

No, most contest have deadlines where the winner must reply of a replacement will be picked. Obviously that time has passed and they picked a new winner
