    this is wat i get the above link is one of the comps thats takin me there familyfunguide.co.uk has been registered with Easyspace.com any ideas anyone am sure its just me but not got a clue how to fix it lol

    I've noticed this on a few too!! There have been a few that Lakshmi posted, a DVD sit I think & the above link you posted.

    It's not your anti-virus cos I don't have any blocking my pages, not sure what it is. Sorry i can't be of more help than that :o

    Hey Folks,

    I've done a few comps today but it's just occured to me that some of the comps I entered for bigger items might not get delivered, like 42" TVs. Will it normally say in the T&C if a prize will require collection or will you only find out if you win? and if it turns out you will be unable to collect what happens to the prize?

    Cheers

    Hi Don't know whether this is the right place for posting this but I can't find The Chase comp for this week....am I just going 'comp blind' or has it not been posted.

    I have also tried to find it on the itv.com page but this is like searching for a needle in a haystack!
    Thanks to all OP's your efforts are much appreciated :A

    I don't know about easy space, but do you have 2 browsers that you can copy and paste the url to FF if you are using IE. I find this works on a lot of comps. I am finding that I have to do this more and more - not because the page doesn't open, but things like the form is not showing, or the captcha doesn't work. I use IE mainly, and then transfer to FF. Even have to start private browsing for some of them.

    I thought that I'd try FF as my main browser, but then I had to do the reverse of the above.

    Thank you all for replying so quickly. They did put the prize up to £1500 which is probably why there is no online comp :mad:
