  Right now there’s £1,000 locked in a safe – to unlock it you just need the correct 4 digit combination. 

No digit in the winning combination is repeated and you can find details of previous attempts to crack the safe below.

To enter, you must send a text message with the keyword SAFE to 64343.

Every weekday we’ll select one safecracker to try and open the safe.

Get it right and you win the jackpot inside – get it wrong, and we'll let you know how many digits in your combination were correct and in the correct place.

Each day we play, the number of possible combinations goes down until we find our Safecracker.

Do you have what it takes to open the safe?

Entries received between 16:00 to 19:00 will not be eligible to win but may still be charged. The Promotion Round will remain open across the weekend for entries. Only entries that have been proved to have been billed, via our network operator receipting, will be considered valid entries. 

5d) On entering the Promotion by SMS text message, you will receive a text message back which confirms your entry and which invites you to take part in an offer for bonus entries, whereby if you pay and enter the Promotion additional times within the same Promotion round, you will receive additional entries into that Promotion round at no extra cost. The additional entries will be automatically included once you have submitted your paid entries and you will not need to text again to claim these. If you do submit subsequent entries into the Promotion, you will be charged again. It is your responsibility to ensure that if you respond to this offer, and that the text lines for the Promotion round are still open when you do so.

6. Once entries for the Promotion Round have closed, ten entries will be selected at random from all the entries received during that round. The selected entries must be eligible, and submitted at the correct time (see clause 5c). One of our representatives will call the first selected entrant on the telephone number on which you entered. If the entry is ineligible, we reserve the right to select another entrant. As stated in clause 7 we may call multiple entrants within a singular round, if this is the case, we will increase the number of randomly selected entries accordingly.

7. If you are the selected entrant, you will be asked to have a call with a presenter. That call will either be broadcast live or pre-recorded for future broadcast. You must answer your telephone when we contact you. Someone else cannot answer the phone, participate, or accept a prize on your behalf. If: (i) you fail to answer the phone; (ii) someone else answers the phone; (iii) the call goes to voicemail; (iv) the call becomes disconnected; or (v) you are not (or do not seem to be) in a position to safely and/or lawfully take or remain on the call (for example, if you are or seem to be driving); or (vi) you are not audible or intelligible or we are not able to conduct a conversation with you in a manner that is suitable for broadcast for any reason beyond our control (including, but not limited to: low/no signal on your device, a call is dropped by any network, you are travelling, there is too much background noise or feedback, etc.); before or during the Promotion, you may be disqualified and we reserve the right to select another entrant to participate in the Promotion or withdraw the prize and select another winner, as applicable. If you have complied with all applicable terms and conditions, and if you are successful, then you will be deemed available to guess the winning combination. 

8. If an Entrant correctly guesses the winning combination, they will win the amount of the accumulated prize pot. The prize pot starts at £1,000 and after each incorrect guess the prize pot will accumulate by £250 until the maximum prize pot is reached. When the winning combination is correctly guessed, the prize pot will reset at £1,000. The maximum prize pot for the first winning combination is £7,500.  For subsequent winning combinations the maximum prize pot shall be £7,500 less the amount(s) won in previous rounds subject to the minimum prize made available being no less than £1,000.

8b. The winning combination is a four digit number, each number being a digit between 0 (zero) and 9 (nine) with no number in the winning combination repeated.   

8c.  If a selected entrant repeats a combination given by another entrant in a previous Promotion Round, this will be deemed a valid attempt but incorrect combination (see 8b).

8d. If a selected entrant gives a combination which is invalid (for example too many or too few digits or using a repeated digit, the entrant will be asked by the presenter to submit a valid entry in accordance with 8b.

9. Each daily Promotion Round is a separate round and the Text Message Line and web entry form will be re-set after each round, therefore entry is only valid for the round which you enter, with the exception of The Final Promotion Round, outlined in clause 9b.
