Comping Guide - Getting Started & Other FAQs

BlueBoy77

Can somebody help me with a query? It may sound silly, but it's something that has bothered me for sometime. If you enter a competition, that is a txt/phone comp, but has the option to enter online. Wouldn't the winner be chosen, from one of the txt/phone entries(as they've paid to enter) as opposed to somebody who has entered for free online.

All have the same odds,or at least they do on the ITV comps:

You'll find that it may be better to post such as this in here: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=215

hi VG, have sent you a pm the other day & not sure if anyone else has let you know,
but at the moment (& for a few weeks now)
we've only had 2 board guides on the comp board,
divadee isn't bging at the moment & Mrs Tine isn't on comps board,
so it's a bit awkward when replying with the comping guide page which refers to the 'sending a merge request' posts as the guide still has diva's/Mrs Tines name on,
would be grateful if you could reply to pm/&/or here so's we know what to do when replying to/helping peeps who to send merge requests to, thanks x

I think this needs to be changed too Fire**fly.

You are right it's confusing & misleading to have listed Bg's who are not BGing at the moment

There will also be another one soon

Yep, all changed on the Guide for now, until the new BG uis selected and added to the Forum page. With Darren on his hols for a week I'll also add some wording in (temporarily) to reflect the current position!

Thanks
