Kiss competition win - Suicide Squad - Kill the Justice League
I haven't entered any on air competitions for quite some time as I haven't been able to travel anywhere as I'm housebound. I entered online for this competition but I had a call & they'd selected a few people to go on air & I got a call from Kiss yesterday afternoon & got the right answer so won the PlayStation bundle. I…
Need to thank MSE Team

Instagram newbie
So i've comped for a while but never used IG Can you have an account just for comping or will they be banned? Any hints to source comps? Thank you
How often do you win?
I’ve been avidly comping since Sept 2023 putting in 2-3 hours per day of entering competitions (of all kinds) and I’ve not received many wins. I know by comping you’re not guaranteed to win anything but do people find this is normal or do they tend to have a bit more luck? I’ve won: tickets on radio (on air) a Christmas…
tagging people in comps
I dont really have many people on insta and noone on x so im regularly finding myself passing on comps which say "tag 2/3+ friends" I posted recently on my facebook to see if anyone wouldnt mind me tagging them but only one person replied :( How do you all manage the tagging comps?
Instagram "Welcome to the conversation"
Anyone else getting this message on instagram and if possible how to delete thanks in advance
Instagram comment spamming
Has anyone noticed this new trend with Instagram competitors? Tagging the same person/s multiple times (and I mean hundreds) in the lead up to the completion, so their comment feed is flooded with entries. I've seen a few people doing it recently and they seem to always win. Feels so disheartening when you follow the rules…
The Handbook Competitions
Hi I have just seen my name appear as a winner in three of the Handbook competitions winners page. All are great prizes, but I was never contacted, so could not claim in the seven day period (as per terms and conditions). Has any one ever won with this company, and if so, how did you find out and claim please? (In…

Magazine weekly and monthly comps
Is anyone having issues with the page, I am getting 504 Gateway Timeout on all of them?
** SOLVED ** SEARCH FAULT
Search is only returning results posted since about 8:30pm on 18/01 It has been reported on Site Feedback BEWARE OF DUPES (this thread will go to Game Over after 19/01)
Chasing Prizes
At what point do you chase after a winning email but no prize? I won a game on December 18th and confirmed my address and got a confirmation, but no prize yet. I appreciate that it has been Christmas and New Years. Also, what do I say in the email, as I don't want to sound demanding?
FYI there's been an insta update
I woke this morning to 4 DMs and was like oooh could these be wins?! Unfortunately they weren't! It seems instagram have done an update where if a friend tags you in a comment its sent to your Instagram DMs. Obviously not ideal for compers but one to watch out for. Apparently there's some changes within the notifications…
Headings
I’ve just noticed that when editing a post and I want to change the text I only have the H2 option and not H1. This is the same when using a desktop/laptop and tablet. Does anyone else only have H2 or do you have H1 as well? At the moment if I want to make something H1 I would have to make it H2 then edit it in the HTML…

How to bag a cheap, sustainable Christmas jumper... from only £3
Jumpers are for life, not just for Christmas, but most of us only wear our most garish festive get-up for one or two days a year, then feel pressure to buy a new one the following year. That's neither MoneySaving nor good for the planet, so what can we do about it? I have a few ideas...
