    Some competitions are different and may need a reply to confirm, the best thing I can suggest is check the sender and subject of each email quite thoroughly before deleting. Good luck

    As Graphicuk says they are all different, some only give a limited time to respond and do not send any reminder before the prize is given to someome else.

    If you've won, is it normally very obvious in the subject line?

    I've been spending ages going through some emails with a fine tooth comb, in case they're hidden away amongst the adverts...I'm really like to stop doing that!
