    I was about to enter Panasonic washing machine contest but decided not to as the amount of private details that I would have to give outweigh any odds of winning (I know free entry) although they say otherwise you never know which promotion company is going to buy their email address list, Its not this company you have to worry about but who gets it from them. An email address is all that is required to enter a contest as it has to be correct or you would not know if you had won.so not wanting to be on loads of mailing lists with junk mail (promotions to the sender) for next 20 years (in case you wondered where it all came from) I will give this one a miss thank you.

    Each to their own as they say.In all honesty if you follow this through you'll really reduce your chances of winning anything.A lots of sites ask for address,DOB plus other details.I subscribe to TPS & give a DOB that is one digit wrong.
    Re junk mail I just see it a hazard of comping.I enter about 20,000 comps per year & get very little jubk mail.

    I've won a few prizes.I was keeping track more closely last year but in the last couple of years the highlights include a five day trip to New York,a week in Vancouver,two full football strips(donated to local schools),at least twenty tickets to Arena events inc' Dr Who,Disney on Ice.These are just a few but in answer to your question I'd imagine I win about 1 in 950 comps at a rough estimate.

    I get hardly any jubk mail either ;), i think companies have cut back and now rely on emailing you...(easy enough to tick a box against or UN subscribe from). Most of us have a comping email address, comping mobile phones etc
    Comping isn't really a hobby for anyone who is worried about their home address details ( which can be bought from the electoral register, the post office etc etc anyway)
    Thank you to all the posters and the forum guides for all your hard work it is appreciated ...

    Jan starting off as the year will pan out ...nothing lol
