Better communication about wins?
The chat line was helpful but your system of advising people of a win needs some improvement, I think. The email does not say how much - perhaps understandable, for security reasons - but your website does not make it all easy to see how much has been won. In the end it proved impossible until your chatline lady provided it for me.
