Just found this posted previoulsy! Sorry! It was in the 2nd post but my forum search for 'Disney' overlooked 'Disneyland'.

Oh, well... At least the answer is right!

Can anyone help... I think I'm being ripped off! I entered the BCA book club competition through PB for a £250.00 book prize. I have now received a book from BCA saying I have asked to become a member and must pay 99p for the book, buy so many books from them etc etc etc. tried to phone on an 0870 number but they just don't answer the phone...can't see on T & C's how to get out of this without buying the minimum number of books. I'm sure I didn't ask to join when I entered the competition. Can anyone help???

I *think* with BCA there's a no risk join as you should be able to send all books back and cancel without paying anything... it's been so long since I've had anything to do with them though that I can't remember.

maybe try emailing e-support@booksdirect.co.uk

or phone the order line... 0870 165 0165 they should pick this up quicker than the CS :rotfl:

just write to them insisting they send you a reply paid label so you can return the book, and stating that if you hear nothing within 30 days you will get rid of the book. State quite clearly that you DO NOT want to join the book club.

Hi all,
My kids very happily coloured in some printed pictures of Curly from the Pigsback website, they were sent certificates and a Curly money box which they loved-all arrived very quickly. :T Just wondered if anyone knew how to find the completed pictures on pigsback.com, kids would love to see them on the internet ! Would highly recommend this for kiddies v rewarding. Thanks to all that have posted answers-bagged myself some great vouchers for christmas, it all helps. :xmassign:

Thanks Justie and LeslieJack. I will email the address telling them I want a return label. Have tried the telephone number you gave and spent 15 minutes on hold/going round in circles with option 1, option 2, option 300020897487! I hate this sort of thing...

Has anyone else experienced anything like this by joining pigsback competitions???

I'd like to know that too. I didn't join BCA via Pigsback, but I did enter the £250 competition.

Hi looneyleo,
I really sympathise, I was very wary about joining pigsback because of that very reason, but am happily suprised that I have had no comeback from any of the adverts or competitions that I have entered. Good luck with sorting this out and thankyou for bringing it to the forum to warn others.

Have just fired off an email to BCA and will also post a letter...I'm so careful when entering competitions just for this sort of eventuality and I'm sure I wouldn't have entered it if you had to become a member. I'm going to inform Pigsback to let them know what has happened too. Will keep you posted...
