Never won the Sunday Express crossword, but in the summer I won the £1,000 Big Monday crossword in the Daily Express (good crossword, terrible newspaper!) I think it took about four weeks to receive the cheque
Thank you all, I think I may have won £25 last week and just wondered how long it took. I did win £20 on a Daily Mail crossword (in 2000) name was in the paper on Monday - cheque was here on Tuesday. Brainiac, I have heard that Mon Express is a good crossword, may give it a try. Thanks again!
won the Sat Telegraph GK about 10 years back much to my surprise, the prize was £200+ a dictionary the book arrived and tucked inside the pages was the cheque, no letter, if I had not looked through the pages would not have found the cheque, took about 6 weeks to arrive.
Thank you all again, glad to hear so many of you have been lucky with the crosswords, even if you have to wait an extraordinarily long time to receive your prize (s). I have noticed in the Sunday Express in particular that people win several times. Twice in 14 years is my "record"!!!
