  • I received some unrequested charged for messages so I rang Vodafone to obtain the details of the company and rang them and they sent me a refund with no fuss.
    Though this may have been different because I did not request them in the first place.

    I did after entering a comp on here, but Orange were very unhelpful and just told me to text stop - which did work.

    A huge thank you to all who post the comps and deals that make life so much fun!

    :sad: just to update everyone on the 'full house' comps, i sent an email to ed yesterday but still hadn't received a reply, so i sent another one today & still haven't received a reply :confused: :sad: not like the ed at all, he usually acknowledges them straight away , don't think anyone will be there tomorrow so if still no reply by monday 10.am i'll phone the mag & see what's happening with the online comp problem.


    well, have phoned the office, as had no reply's back from my email's , they took my number & phoned me back... here's the up date ...

    i explained the online form wasn't submitting the entries & had been like that since last thursday afternoon, plus on the other issues it was doing the same, the lady then put me through to the dept. concerned with the comps entries, explained the problem again, was then told to wait while they investigated the problem.... upshot of it .. the reason why is because there have been over one million entries for the full house competitions so therefore the online form had exceeded it's quota, was then advised to try again in 24 hours while the team sort out the problem, so hopefully it should be up and running in the next 24 hours,

    so looks like you've got to wait till tomorrow to enter if you haven't all ready ..

    that's all i can do for now , if it's still not working tomorrow i'll phone again.

    must admit , was rather taken aback when she told me that, but at least we've had quite a few winners on here from them, and still are getting winners, so think this is the luckiest forum for it :T

    love your avatar, looks really cute :smiley:
