Two People Comping from Same Household?

Hello,
I have been comping for a year now, but my partner has just started from the same computer for the same address. But different contact emails and numbers and we enter at different times etc.
However he has noticed that some of them have said he has already entered when he hasn't yet. Because we are entering from the same address and IP address are we disqualifying ourselves from them?
I know some like shortlist say one per household so we don't enter them twice but for normal comps?

I'd just check the rules on each comp.When I am able to & feel like it I tend to enter for each of us.

My nephew has been coming round to my house to use my laptop because he's in temp accommodation and has no internet.. He's won several times on KP and although it says 3 wins per person they are not honoring his wins. They say he's part of a syndicate - he didn't even know what that meant! But KP are owned by United Biscuits which are the same company as McVities and we all know what a fiasco that was for several of us. So my advice would be to read the rules but if its something you really want dont both enter in case you are disqualified.0

I tend to check the rules and see if it says 1 entry per household or per person then let my oh know if it is per person then we go for it as i am assuming they realise two people from the same house will enter by stating per person iykwim
