Yep, an injuction has been filed to stop the releasing of the results tomorrow until the case of the original 22,000 has been heard. Have been waiting since Tuesday for the judgement. Hopefully it will be today some time!

emeraldstar · 14-07-2011 2:42pm

Oh dear, I hadn't heard about that. Oh well.

So ridicolous, I feel sorry for the people who were told they had interviews but they have no grounds for complaint

You can have a look at these links, the first one is a blog set up by the lawyer taking the case and the second is a facebook site of people who have been effected.

The injunction was denied therfore the results should of the redraw should be out tomorrow as planned.

emeraldstar · 15-07-2011 12:17pm

Still not available... :-/

BornIn84 · 15-07-2011 1:30pm

im still waiting too

rismak7 · 15-07-2011 3:06pm

Thankfully that injunction was denied and we can get on with the lottery! I'm still waiting to know if I'm lucky enough to be selected as well.

Although they did say on or about June 15th so I'm not entirely surprised the results haven't been released yet. I wouldn't be surprised if they waited until next week to release the new set of results. Just to make sure they have them right this time after the court case and all the mess created after they voided the first set of results.

BornIn84 · 15-07-2011 3:14pm

ye i thought that too...i should probably stop refreshing the page

little lady · 15-07-2011 3:23pm

Nah. There's really no point in getting excited as the chance of winning is so unlikely.

BornIn84 · 15-07-2011 4:48pm

pigeonbutler · 15-07-2011 5:09pm

Jager Man · 15-07-2011 5:13pm

Disappointment again. Oh well....

Well done and good luck to all those who were successful.

Ian C · 16-07-2011 12:31am

No joy... will try again next year I guess! Doing it through my company takes several years from what I'm told, so was just trying to take a shortcut

vicecreamsundae · 17-07-2011 4:12am

Jager Man -that SUCKS. i would be distraught if that happened to me. was hoping one way or another they would let you guys keep it.
