Search Not Working
I was looking for mag dailies as I do once or twice a week. I searched for: (MD) - clicked: Discussions - Category: Competition Time and Date Updated from 2022-09-21 and got 317 results - way more than I was expecting. Most were out of date. So I played about and whatever date you choose you get 317 results, eg I tried…
Crosswords Collection
Hi, I am no longer receiving that magazine, after 4 years of posting it. I prefer to rest then I will probably pick another puzzle mag to subscribe to and post that instead. Thanks to everyone who posts and especially to One-Eye for all of the hard work and effort you put into managing the Take A Break section of the forum.

The Side Hustle Nerd - Free Daily and Weekly Lottery
I am wondering if anyone here has ever won this before? I conducted a little test this afternoon and am 99% sure it's a fake ongoing "competition" just set up for personal data gathering and marketing purposes.
Puzzle Life & Take a Break Mags
Hi! New to comping and just bought the puzzle life and take a break magazines in the airport. Has anyone entered and won anything with these, I think they’re postal entries? Just curious 😊
Navigator Iphone competition.
What are your thought on this, is it a winning moments comp ? What are the odds ? It seems to be open worldwide judging by the dropdown for your location. Have you won this in the previous years this comp has been running. Sensible and kind comments only please :smile:
Dupes, merges and moves
Sounds like a new dance craze! But as there is a technology glitch that currently prevents Ambassadors from being able to sort these out, there is an extra button under 'report', at the bottom of the list labelled 'Needs moving, merging or splitting' and a text box, in which you can post a comment. It would be super…
Bauer limit after win - does it apply to whole household?
I've just won a Bauer competition, I know that you can't enter again for 6 months if it's over £500, does this apply to everyone in my household? It seems to just mention an individual phone number being blocked in the T&C's.
Breville Iced Coffee Game
Has anyone received an email from Newell Brands that they'd won a Breville Iced Coffee starter pack from entering a game? I don't remember the competition and couldn't find it on their socials.
Mag Dailies
Have the mag dailies gone pear shaped for anyone else

number of times you can enter weekly magazine competitions
i understand several magazines only let you enter competitions once. most flag up if you cannot enter again. However Take a break does not do this and allows you to enter multiple times. However when i messaged Take a break, they say you can only enter once. I have been entering daily, what a waste of my time! Surely they…
"closed comments" prevent marking comps as entered/skipped. Please change
Can the link between "comments closed" and the "entered/skipped" buttons be broken so that people can still mark comps even if comments have been closed? I don't know why people close comments but the fact comps can't be marked as entered/skipped is quite annoying. J

He tried to place an order at the weekend and it would not let him use the voucher, comes up with something like 'payment method not available' He has contacted the help section in…
