The terms and conditions state that is only open to Uswitch customers, but then it states that no purchase is necessary and gives a postal route of entering. I've just clicked done and hope that it's ok.

Hi SDG I haven't done the survey yet, so haven't had a chance to look at the T&C. Uswitch surveys are posted on the boards quite frequently, and I don't recall the bit about Uswitch customers, least of all the bit about purchasing anything. I have never bought anything off of them in my life ! Nor am I a customer of theirs. I do get emails from them, but that's it.

A few minutes that's all, about how the emergency budget might affect your finances.
I'm also wondering how they check if you're a uswitch customer when they're only asking for an email address, and some of use have several!
