    Sorry for the bump - but it appears that Pick Me up have changed their competition entry system into something that seems rather designed for data collection and:spam:

    Might be better off giving these comps a miss

    My mail to Pick Me Up.
    I have always loved your Magazine but in the past have bought it mainly for the competitions. Myself and I am sure many more of your longstanding readers will no longer buy the magazine or be entering your competitions. I do not like being put under pressure with spam emails or direct mail. Thank you but I will be buying Take a Break, Chat and such Mags in future in preference to Pick Me Up.

    Maybe if they get more response to the change they might think about it and go back to what they did before.
