grrr, I am so annoyed.. I have been doing comps on and off for a good few years now and never won a thing... I just thought i would test my email account by sending myself a test message. My email is .co.uk and that is what i use to sign in, anyway that had a failure notice so I tried .com and it went through...... damn and double damn,

:eek:

What a bummer! Lets hope that you get pleanty of prizes in the near future to make up for it.:)

Thanks for mentioning that Tia, as my sis also uses .co.uk on the end of her email. I guess she'll have to change it.
Hope you get lots of wins soon! Have you tried googling your name to see if you've won?

Do you mean you have been using this address for years and not getting any emails?? lol What account did you send the message from?

Surely if you log in as '.co.uk' then this is the address you are signed up with? I can't log in to my email account using an incorrect address - it tells me the username or password is incorrect.

my sister also uses a .co.uk address and has had a good few wins, so don't worry about changing it.

Don't panic Wingoblins, I use a .co.uk addy and have loads of emails with a few wins.

Mamzie

I am amazed...

I just checked and never realised that you can sign in to a Yahoo addy with both .co.uk and .com at the end of your user name... But I am def .co.uk as that shows on all my sent emails.

Im gonna be really annoying and ask a question that is probabl asked by every new comper but wow guys ,esp Josie.How many comps do you average a day to win like that?

lol - its all luck ddraig, but yeah it does take dedication. I probably enter easily 100 a day.
I keep up to date with the board - I've been doing this board since July 06 - so carry on from where I left off the day before (I don't do them all, just what I want) Although it has become a lot busier since the early years.

My sister is a newer comper she has done better than me, enters fewer but has had more higher value wins in the past year.

good luck to you - I hope you get the tv, thats something I've never won.... and a bloomin Wii (been on my wishlist since the launch!!! :rotfl:)

Morning and welcome!

I am entering about 100 - 120 comps a day and I average a couple wins a week (normally just small wins)!

Good luck.

Where do I find normal Take a Break competitions and other weekly mag competitions?

Barnabysue

Hi, if you go to the search at the top of the board and enter takeabreak (all one word) and select Forums they come up, it will work with the other mags too.

Good Luck
