I usually enter as soon as the page "opens" at 3 p.m. Today however it was only two minutes to 3 and the message "Sorry, we are experiencing a large amount of web entries please try again in a few minutes." appeared!

10 minutes later and it still won't let me enter. Aaarrgghhh!

Happening to me too, still can't get in, same problem happened with hotmail a few days ago, wonder if it's a similar problem.

Only know that the only other time this happened to me there was a huge amount in the "lucky" box. Maybe audience members spread the word and the web site gets overload!

This really annoys me! There always seems to be problems with the page - cynical me thinks Channel 4 does it on purpose so people have to call and pay! The rules say that web and phone entries are treated equally but how can they be when it is so often not possible to even enter online????

It's working now - only one success but that just may be the one I need.

Don't hold your breath waiting for anything other than an automated response to your email Lilypop. I emailed back when all these problems started (when they changed the web form)and still haven't heard from them!

Thanks for posting this.....seriously, thank you.....I have arthritis in my wrists and typing the form out 30 times a day was causing some serious pain. I, for one, really appreciate the find.

Come to conclusion i have no chance of getting a chance at filling form again let alone getting through....good luck to all who continue and get multiple successful entries, perhaps if they win the rest of us will have a chance at seeing the form and maybe even getting one successful entry!! I know I know sour grapes....just very frustrated...lol i do wish everyone luck really.

I've been trying all week. Same message. Never had problems before. Tried at 10am this morning! Same message. I think people are bombarding the system with multiple entries. I think they should only allow one successful entry. It would give everyone a fairer chance.

i agree i must admit...perhaps they should lower number of tries to 10 or less and incidentally have just looked in and sure enough still message saying "sorry we are experiencing...blah...blah" instead of site closed or whatever it usually says when off air

Surely 10 am would be pointless because the competition doesn't start until 3pm.

It has only had the busy status for me once, the 20th, since then everything has been fine except actually getting into the winners pool. It appears to me that I get succesful entries at the same time everyday, albeit only a couple nowadays. Strange that there should be regional variations.
