Not sure this is the correct place to ask

I have entered a few comps with my child and today I got a phone call from them when I was out, my partner took the call, wouldnt tell him anything but said they would email me, ive not heard anything so ive just emailed them and will call them in the morning.

I was just wondering if they call for marketing or anything, im sure I refused this sort of information, just wondered.

many thanks in advance

From the Comping Guide sticky -

10 Are there any sites, from experience, which are likely to generate lots of spam?
There are a few which have come to our collective attention as sites that, when used for comps, seem to generate lots of unwanted postal, email & phone call attention. These are listed below for your information, however, please do remember that this is only the collective opinion of other MSE Compers & does not necessarily reflect upon the sites themselves.

I have received an email today for a comp to win Tesco Vouchers. the comp is run by Rewards Today. Does anyone know if this is likely to be a spam generating company? It does have opt in/out boxes for Park catalogue, experian and win £1000 to spend on credit card aswell as the voucher comp.
