This is a big scam. a person sends an sms then get told that you might get chosen to be called. why do they air a show live on television where they steal our money. r15 is allot of money. am I the only person that this has happened to. they tell you all you must do is sms. well I sms and where the hell is my call. why dont they call, ill tell you why cause they want to collect as many r15 as possible in a night and they getrich where as we who cant really afford this and just really wantto win to put food on the table get scammed and broke. this is the most bull... ive ever come accros
I totally agree, I think they should just take this game off from tv, because it's a scam, stealing our money, it's alot of money for am sms
That's right
I sent so many messages, but nothing happened, this is so unfair, but we get charged

This is a scam mustn't to be played on tv
I have been trying to register but it says i entered wrong number, but when i send the letter W to the sms number it charges me, can you please help us register, we also want to play with you guys please.
I did sent them about 4-5 smss last night but I never got any call from them all they did was to tell me that I almost got chosen blarh blarh...and even their emails aren't working.This is totally a scam on another level..
Iyhooo I used like R390 for those SMS but they never called back mxm

Yekani ukuthanda izinto,
Iscam lesi. someone told me he used ar1000 sms but never get called, it their way of making money
You guys are unfair. I've smsed over 7 times with no response and I have the correct answer. You just want people to sms so you can make money
This is a disgrace.This is a huge scam and I don't know why this is being allowed on live TV.After reading all the complains of others I don't understand why this show is still on air.Its awful to give people such false hope and even worse to deceive people like this.It's shameless.
I sms so many times but it doesn't work why is the show stil on TV and they are scamming the people I would like to know
This is getting a little boring, I know the answers almost immediately but they never respond to our sms's or online registration. They are just wasting our time
Words on true they won't respond
This is [censored] i keep filling in entry form Mabe 30 but nothing happens
I have been sending smss at much as I can but you guys seems like you not interested in calling me
This is a pure scam. I don’t understand why does this have a platform on national TV. ETV you are disappointing me. I’m not even sure if the winning people are their friends or not
Its a scam they are keeping on saying sms sms sms LETTER W repiting the same thing while people are loosing their airtime [censored] game
This is a scam this guy just said its Saturday evening now now talking about church. So this thing is not live it was recorded for Saturday
These people are crooks I've sent more than 5 sms and still nothing
I sent an sms, but it was never answered. I don't know why.
How to enter this competition because I tried not going through what must I do please?
Please add me to the Game show Guys because when I want to sms win to 39975 doesn't want to send even though I have more airtime so that's why I visited your website Thank you...
This show is a con. Heard from countless frustrated who spend R600 to R800 (R15 per sms) or more a night and never get through since its inception. They either discount certain ethnicities as certain can spend thousands a night and not get through and/or ensure that prizes won per night are around R10 000 or so, when they are making hundreds of thousands, probably more, in desperate people sms ing without any chance to even get a chance in hell to get close. When you spend enough R15's you get an sms that you are close, yet nothing materialises - after about R200/R300 spent, you are simply ignored. Poor and desperate people who know the answers spends hundreds per night which could go to feeding their families/hours they could be resting being lured by this disgusting opportunist money making scheme. HOW CAN SA BROADCASTERS ALLOW THIS AFTER A GLOBAL PANDEMIC WHEN MOST HAVE BEEN BROKEN. This is unethical and misleading and must stop. I am going to ETV and every social media platform and media to get this shut down.
True they must close this show
They buy time to make over R10000 from the R15 sms cost or even more before they call anyone
This thing is a scam 😒 I lost 100 rand right now 😔 with that 100 rand I should have buy something cooking oil

Absolutely a [censored] show. Etv must also but shut off its useless either way with their old movies that's why we Netflix nowadays.

I have registered already and I did send the sms to but they are not calling back
I want R60 of my 4 SMSs back
Why don't u answer my sms or is it not for our coloureds
Is this a serious game because we right answers each and every show bt no respond to our sms
Guys this sms to win game is not right at all. Everything of it is just fake guys!I've been sending sms to that number but they keep telling me that I was so close to be chosen.How can someone who spend R15.00 get R19000.00 just like that.Well for me it's enough I've lost enough money to it , How can I not be chosen whereas there's no one who's on the call with the host. This show must be banned guys because those people are making millions from us whereas we're suffering here.
This thing is a scam i was trying to call their number and it says it's not available but my R 15 was gone
I know the answer right now please call me or give me the number to call
