SPAM Warning!
Someone asked if MyFamilyUK is 'spammy', which prompted me to do some digging. It certainly appears that it has been for some people, though I feel that it possibly depends on the comps. you enter i.e. the companies who offer the comps..? I've posted here in an effort to find out for definite.
If it does turn out to be spammy, I'm sorry to anyone who is spammed as a result of entering a comp. I posted.. :o

    I can't find their registered company number and registered address on the site. This is a legal requirement if they are registered in the UK (ex Channel Islands.)
