Hiya! From what I've learnt so far it shouldn't matter that you untick or tick the boxes (apart from some smaller companies who get a bit squiffy about it !!!) and your mobile number isn't a problem either - as long as they can get in touch with you that's all that matters. Think it just depends on random luck to be honest!!! :rotfl: hth Happy Comping! xxx
"You give a little love and it all comes back to you! La La La La La La La!"Just loving comping and the good guys here!0 -
yeah it is just random luck mostly and some people have more luck than others!

I always use my mobile, been comping almost a year and never had a winning telephone call though.
But I always untick newsletters etc too and have won lots in the post so that doesn't seem to matter.
Good Luck.0 -
2 wins in your first week is pretty damn good.
I always untick the boxes. Plenty of people still win with them unticked.0 -
hiya - I always use my mobile number (so I can call screen
) and always untick any boxes I can! And from my sig I reckon I'm doing ok. 
Good luck - hopefully you'll get another lucky spell soon!

I also usually use my mobile number and I also normally 'un tick' any contact boxes - I'm averaging about two wins a week (although August is being particularly kind for wins).:T*Thanks to all who posts comps * :j0

I have a comp mobile :rotfl: abit like the batphone..........but hasn't rung as yet :mad:
Guess its the luck of the draw. I started comping late July and had 1 win :rotfl: that was afew days after i started
but none after that and thats after entering about 200 comps a day on average.
I'm not bothered at the minute with regards to winning because i've only just started and picked up my comp rate per day but i would :wall: if i didn't win owt after afew months :rotfl:
I just enjoy comping and ppl are right, it is addictive

On an aside s0ulassassin have you been awake all night? or like me just a very early start???:p
I untick most boxes and use my landline unless it specificly (how the 'beep' do ya spell that word?) asks for a mobile. Have won a few things since starting back to comping in June
What happened the quote bit????:coffee:0
