Has anyone had any luck with phone -in Radio Station contests???

As hard as I try, I can't manage to get through to those darn radio stations to even qualify for a trip.

I have won trips through radio stations, but those have been where you qualify with an entry through points, but the ones where you have to phone in when you hear the signal, NEVER !!!  Busy signal is the best I get!!!

Any luck?

I don't bother with phoning them, it's pretty inconvenient just to get near a phone in the first place when listening to it.

of the people who entered the most.

I rarely listen to the radio, but when I do it's usually when I'm driving, so I've never bothered to try entering one.

We have an AM station that doesn't have a lot of listeners, so it's not too hard to get through. Never won much though.

It's so hard to get through to them. They also seem to be held at 6-7 am.

yes I win all the time last year feb 2009 I went on an all inclusive trip for 2 to a 5 star resort in Jamaica. I couldn't believe it. They showed up at my house at 6:45 a.m. I win prizes all the time through the radio station.

You need to use redial button. It works sometimes. Good luck.

I have won a couple of times,but don't do it too often. The 2 times that I won I was just messing around and dialed the station about a half hour before I knew the contest would be coming on,hung up and when the contest came on I hit talk..redial.. and it worked. our radio station only have small prizes and not worth the effort.

That's a good tactic! I may try this when I ever get around to fixing my radio
