    Not just you, I think most people have noticed too. I think there was some talk on the discussion boards :) It reminds me of those myoffers type sites, which I just don't like the look of anyway.

    this is a shame as i won loads prizes with this site in the past. what on earth are they playing at do they not realise these other sites are spam?

    Amilucky?
    I have done a bit of digging!

    The company that Pick Me Up Magazine are now using for the competitions are Data Media & Research Ltd

    from the privacy policy

    Quote:
    Data Media & Research Ltd ("DMR") is a supplier engaged by IPC to provide a selection process for winners in competitions entered on the Site and the provision of prizes
    (DMR) are the owners of the win 4 now and Instantwin 4 now sites which are on velvetgloves sites to avoid ;)




    as Amilucky said, they've changed over, think most peeps are going to avoid the site now, i wish i'd never tried the new one out icon9.gif please, if any of you do carry on with it, be warned, you'll get loads of spam icon8.gif
