Official Rules – Mobile Prize Draw

1. Prize Draw Organiser

The organiser of the mobile prize draw ("Prize Draw") is eBay Europe S.à r.l., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg, www.ebay.co.uk (hereinafter, "eBay" or "we").

2. Eligibility

All residents of the United Kingdom (excluding Northern Ireland) who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry, who have been selected for this Prize Draw, have received an e-mail on behalf of eBay inviting them to participate ("Participation Email") and have subsequently purchased an item on the eBay.co.uk mobile web or via an eBay app are eligible for the Prize Draw. Employees (and their families) of eBay, affiliates, subsidiary companies, representatives or agents of those companies and anyone else who may have be professionally involved with the Prize Draw are not eligible to enter.

Please note: only the original recipients of the Participation Email will be eligible for the Prize Draw. If you did not receive the Participation Email, but still purchased an item on the mobile web or via an eBay app, you will not be entered into the Prize Draw.

3. Prize Draw Period

The Prize Draw will be open from 00:00:01 GMT on the 19 February 2013 until 23:59:59 GMT on the 28 February 2013 ("Prize Draw Period"). Any purchases made on the mobile web or via the eBay app after the end of the Prize Draw Period will not be eligible. There will be a draw for Eligible Entries made for each day of the Prize Draw Period. This means that there will be a total of 10 prize drawings with 10 different winners, 1 winner per day. All 10 prize drawings will be made after the Prize Draw Period has ended.

4. Entry Procedure

To enter:

  1. Once you have received the Participation Email, you must make a purchase within the Prize Draw Period on the mobile web or through your eBay app; and
  2. You must complete payment for the item using PayPal before the end of the Prize Draw Period ("Eligible Entry"). If you do not have a PayPal account, you can sign up under this link https://altfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/3484-147346-2357-1?ebay4=6&ebay6=9&ebay7=1&ebay9=7&mpro=https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_registration-run. If you do not pay with PayPal during the Prize Draw Period you will not be entered into the Prize Draw.

You may only make one Eligible Entry per day within the Prize Draw Period. For the avoidance of doubt, if you enter on multiple days, you may only win the £1,000 PayPal credit prize once. In addition, if you make several Eligible Entries in one day, only your first Eligible Entry will be entered into the Prize Draw.

5. Opt-out of entry

If you do not wish to be entered into the Prize Draw, please send an email to mobilecompetition@ebay.com which contains: a) the words "Opt-out of the Mobile Prize Draw" in the subject box; b) your eBay User ID; and c) your request to opt out of the Prize Draw.

6. Prize Draw

The prize winners ("Winners") will be the first name drawn randomly after the 28 February 2013 and on or before 5 March 2013. There will be a draw for Eligible Entries made for each day of the Prize Draw Period. This means that there will be a total of ten prize drawings with ten winners, 1 winner per day. All ten prize drawings will be made after the Prize Draw Period has expired. There will be a Winner for each day of the Prize Draw Period.

7. Prize

The prize of the competition is £1,000 credited to each Winner's PayPal account ("Prize") during March 2013. The Prize will be credited to the PayPal account associated with the Winner's eBay account on 5 March 2013. In the case of multiple PayPal accounts associated with one eBay account, the Winner will receive an email on 5 March 2013 asking them to indicate the preferred PayPal account to which the Prize will be disbursed. Shortly after the Winner has provided their preferred PayPal account, the Prize will be credited into that account. There is no alternative compensation and the Prize is not transferable.

8. Awarding of Prizes

The Winners will be notified by email on 5 March 2013. The notification will be sent to the same e-mail account in which the Winner received the Participation Email. We are not obligated to investigate further when a notification is undeliverable. The participants who did not win a Prize will be informed via email on 5 March 2013.

eBay reserves the right to verify the eligibility of entrants and their identity.

The Winners may be required to provide proof that he or she is the authorised account holder of the PayPal account to which the Prize will be disbursed. In the event of a dispute regarding an online submission, the entry will be deemed submitted by the authorised account holder. "Authorised account holder" means the natural person who is assigned to an e-mail address by an Internet access provider, online service provider, or organisation (e.g., business, educational, institutional) that is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with such e-mail address.

If your PayPal account is or becomes blocked, closed or restricted for any reason during or shortly after the Prize Draw Period, you may be excluded from participating in the Prize Draw. In this event, eBay reserves the right to draw another Winner.
