Pay Your Bills Official Rules

96.5TIC “PAY YOUR BILLS”

PROMOTION

NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN.  A PURCHASE OR PAYMENT WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING.

HOW TO ENTER

These rules govern the “96.5TIC PAY YOUR BILLS” promotion (the “Promotion” or “Contest”) being conducted by WTIC-FM (“96.5TIC” or the “Station”) beginning on Friday, September 17, 2010 at approximately 12:01am Eastern Time (“ET”) and end on Friday, November 12, 2010 at approximately 4:20 pm ET or when a total of $30,000 has been awarded, whichever happens first (the “Promotion Dates”).

To participate in the Promotion, you may log onto http://www.965TIC.com and click on the Pay Your Bills banner and link and follow the links and instructions to enter the Promotion. Submit your first name and last name, complete address, city, state, zip code, telephone number, date of birth and a valid email address in the online entry.  Entrants must also provide information about any outstanding bill.  Entrants must also input the name of the bill and the bill amount (the total amount due) into their online entry form, and entrant must be the account holder on the bill being submitted.  The amounts that will be awarded will be from $100.00-$1,200.00.  The maximum amount that will be paid to any individual winner is $1,200.00, even if the total amount due on the bill submitted by the winner is more than $1,200.00.  Any bill that does not comply with these criteria will not be eligible and will be discarded.  Only one internet entry per person and one internet entry per email address is permitted.  Internet entries will be deemed made by the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of entry.  The authorized account holder is the natural person who is assigned to the email address by an internet access provider, online service provider or other organization that is responsible for assigning an email address or the domain associated with the submitted email address.  Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address.  All entries submitted become the sole property of the Station and will not be acknowledged or returned.  Use of any device to automate entry is prohibited.  Proof of submission of an entry shall not be deemed proof of receipt by Station.  Station’s computer is the official time keeping device for the Promotion.  The Station is not responsible for entries not received due to difficulty accessing the internet, service outage or delays, computer difficulties and other technological problems.  All entries must be received by 4:20pm ET on Friday, November 12, 2010.

After submitting an online entry form, contestants must then listen to 96.5TIC weekdays beginning on Thursday, September 23rd, 2010 and continuing through Friday, November 12th, 2010 at the following times: approximately 9:20 am, approximately 12:20 pm and approximately 4:20 pm for their names to be announced (“Cue to Call”).   Prior to airing the Cue-to-Call, the Station will select one (1) potential winner in a random drawing from all eligible entries received by 11:59 pm ET on the day prior each random drawing and will announce the name on the entry on-air.  If the contestant whose name is announced on-air calls the station at 860-247-9696 within nine (9) minutes (as determined by the Station in its sole discretion) then the contestant will win a prize, subject to confirmation of eligibility.  In the event that the contestants call is disconnected or the contestant is found to be ineligible, the contestant will be disqualified and no winner will be selected during that round of the promotion.  If the contestant whose name is announced on-air does not call back within nine (9) minutes of his/her name being announced on-air, that contestant will forfeit their chance to win, and no winner will be selected during that round of the Promotion. Once a contestant’s name is selected and announced on-air, that contestant’s name is automatically removed from the database of eligible entries regardless of whether or not the contestants call back within the allotted time or does or does not win a prize. There will be up to a maximum of one hundred eleven (111) winners selected on-air during the Promotion dates.  The Station is not responsible for telephone service outages, delays, busy signals, equipment malfunctions and any other technological difficulties that may prevent an individual from completing his/her telephone call.  Due to delays in the 96.5TIC online streaming of its broadcast signal, listeners to the online stream may not be able to participate in or may be disadvantaged in participating in on-air contests.
