I bet it's timeshare...
1. The comp page has no company details on it.
2. It says "hurry..."
3. They ask if you have a credit card, own your own home [ i.e. can you pay up front for their dodgy gear ]
A V O I D ! :-)Wins: Underpants, Rizla vending machine, Grand Prix tix, T-Shirt & cap, Brands Hatch tix, tanning fluid, pen, food voucher, Manchester Town Hall tour, Flahavan's Oats, Rexel stapler, canvas photo, egg cup, calendar, The Fall tix. Thanks everyone0 -
always a give away when they ask about owning your own home and credit cards, would also guess it's a time share0
-
A bit more digging suggests this comp is operated by "Tenerife Resorts" (http://www.teneriferesorts.com).Wins: Underpants, Rizla vending machine, Grand Prix tix, T-Shirt & cap, Brands Hatch tix, tanning fluid, pen, food voucher, Manchester Town Hall tour, Flahavan's Oats, Rexel stapler, canvas photo, egg cup, calendar, The Fall tix. Thanks everyone0

I would guarantee that this is timeshare.0

Sorry people. I did this in good faith. I've learnt new things today.
Like, to avoid comps that ask about c/cards and home ownership.
If I'd known that before I'd never have posted it.:mad::mad:Al Mac Appreciation Society No. 188
