Now that the competition submission date has passed, I have had to send the following to everyone due to a lack of prize funds. TSP letter
Refunds for entry fees are being processed over the next couple of days (N.B. As of 00.00 2nd August all refunds should now be processed, please let me know if you haven’t heard back from PayPal about yours)
