Competitions that fail to deliver?

Has anyone here entered any competitions where you have to put a codeword in and if luck should have it, you win? Well last year when Channel Ten Australia was running the "Missing Macaroons" competition and you had to find a codeword and enter it, guess what? I won! Twenty-eight days was when my prize would arrive, that was going to be my christmas present last year because we don't have jobs so we can't afford to buy presents. That was on the 8th of October 2010, it's now 24th February 2011 - I've not received my prize to this day! Has anyone else here won a competition and they've failed to give you your prize? It's a freaking digital camera worth around $200, I was going to take photos of when I get to meet my best-friend for the first time xD I got a prize from Channel Ten before I was even eight years old, one of those 'ring 1900' and enter your name and address; I got a demo-disc for a Playstation haha. I'm still waiting, we rang the company and got stone-walled; passed from person to person. Now we're going to put in a complaint to Fair Trading and see if that pushes buttons, if not, contact the freaking media.

This is great. May I ask, where can you find such competitions? I want to join them.
