Don't give up!

It took 4 weeks of me entering between 50 - 100 comps a day for my first win to come through. I now receive approx 2 prizes a week.

Some comps notify you the day the comps closes, other comps don't notify you and the prize turns up 6 weeks later (this happened with an Empire DVD I won).

The more you enter the more chance you have of winning. Good luck and hope a win arrives for you soon.

I find I win far more 'local' competitions. Have a look in your local papers, supermarkets, radio and websites. The less people that enter the greater the chance of winning. Some of the competitions listed on MSE are copied onto lots of other websites and thousands (if not tens of thousands) of people enter.
I used to also find that if I entered nearer the closing date I seemed to get more wins. Good luck, one day your prize will come.

Keep going, it was a while before I had my first win in June, now July has exploded for me.

Keep at it. I have only been comping since March/April this year and have already smashed the £2008 for 2008, but as everyone else has said, many of the comps you have entered may not have ended yet, or prizes have not been issued yet. Fingers crossed for your first win soon.
