They wrote: “Guys from Omaze UK, I heard that you guys are running a credit check on people and if they have a low credit score they will never ever win anything, so what’s the point of paying money for this?”
Omaze replied to the question, writing that they don’t vet entrants. Their response read: “Elișh Tanase We do not run credit checks. Omaze do not vet checks to see if potential winners can afford the house. They do run extensive eligibility and proof of identity checks before entering into the conveyancing process.”
The exchange took place among a sea of comments, many lamenting they didn’t win the mansion.
