    All the talk of 2009 challenges has got me thinking....I'm going to have to quit soon I think.....we're going to Oz for a couple of years and most of the comps are UK only. The only thing I can think of doing is to still enter things from over there but in my mums name and address and get her to send anything on?? If not I'm really going to miss entering them!!
    WIN £2008 in 2008 £1836.31 2009 wins - £91!!! 2010 wins in Oz $ 6170.... wins 2011 aprox $2000
    MFIT - number 37. Reduce my mortgage from £63,500 to £48,000. now at 54,000...

    It may be really good for you. I bet theres a load of comps in Australia as well.

    Good luck for the future.
    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but here goes anyway

    I had a card through my door at the beginning of November, saying that they had left a parcel with our neighbour. When I went to the neighbour's house, they knew nothing about it. (I do trust these neighbours. I don't think they'd have not told us if they'd taken one in for us.)

    I emailed ParcelNet and asked them to find out what had happened. They emailed me back saying that I should contact the sender of the parcel.

    I had not ordered anything that hadn't arrived, so I didn't know who to contact. I did say this to them, plus that I enter a lot of competitions so it could be a prize, and I couldn't really contact ALL the companies whose competitions I had entered to ask if they'd sent anything.

    Since then, I have heard nothing from ParcelNet, even though I have emailed them on 7th November, 12th November, 17th November, 26th November (and again this morning).

    When I responded to their first and only email saying that I should contact the sender, I said that as it was THEIR service and THEIR delivery driver, I expected them to find out what THEY had done, and whether or not they had received a signature from the person who took the parcel in. (I had to sign for a parcel that I took in for another neighbour the day after ParcelNet tried to deliver mine.)

    Given that they are steadfastly ignoring me, is there anything I can do? I can't find a contact telephone number from them, so the email address I have seems to be the only means of contact I have.

    I still have the card they left here (I gave them the serial number from the card when I first emailed them).

    according to google their h/o is same as grattans the catalogue company so maybe ring the grattans h/o and ask how u can contact parcel net xx
    also there is only an email contact us form and they state clearly on that to contact the sender if u have issues.
    i would go via the grattans route as u might get a better response itms xx good luck xx

    The trouble is, you haven't thanked the OP on that comp, so it could be a scam ;)
