Is anyone having luck texting to the 44144 number? It has not been working for me for the past 3 days or so. I was just wondering of others were having this same issue or not. Thanks in advance

Thank goodness it isn't just me. Oreo one doesnt work for me either!!
I'm on Virgin... I wonder if it is just one carrier or not. I see another person reply that it was still working for them. I wonder if contests are aware of the issue.

Congrats...looks like this part was not an instant contest, as stated, but a drawing instead..many people got the PB cup coupon as an instant win prize..but it seems the first prize of $100 NCAASPORTS.com was drawn later..I also got the email yesterday for the win.

Same here, received a "Congrats" email a few days ago that I won the $100 gift code for a purchase from the NCAA website. Must have been a drawing. I used it and everything went smoothly. The funny part is, the day after I received the first code, I received another "Congrats" email from them with a completely different code. I checked the rules and saw the one win per person stipulation. Obviously they goofed letting me win twice! Good thing my mama raised me to be an honest man. I did not take advantage of their mistake.
