Hello,
I'm sorry if this is a little 'off topic' but could you advise me on whether it is worth entering all the daily Now, Look, Pick Me Ups, What's on tv, etc comps on the Dailies board?

Does anyone actually win them and what are the odds of winning? They just take a while to enter after ticking all the 'No'/'Not Interested' boxes.

I just don't want to be wasting my time...I enter most of the comps on the main board.

Thanks x

Tracy (A fairly newbee)

In the past 2 weeks I've one 1 PMU & 1 WOTV comp :T:T Only little prizes but all appreciated :T:T xx

Korky you are amazing at being able to find and link to relevant posts. How on earth do you do that?

I had to search for Real Deal to check for any current comps, then I checked if Comping Cat had posted any that were not popping up for some weird reason, finally I noticed they had posted other ITV comps, so assumed that as they were still active and posting, that the program had to be on a break...

hiya, i keep comping cat in my contacts (along with others) & reg check for any new postings they've made as i don't watch tv much so her & other tv comp posters are a godsend to me,
i remember thier postings & can then just check
Find all posts by comping cat
or any other ITV comp poster
to find the relevant post

I search for the term "itv.com" in the search box and it brings them all up, the green ticks let me know which I've already entered xx

just had a look at the terms, it does clearly state one code per household within them. so i would suspect they are within their right to refuse to let you have more than the first £1 code that you used, even if they were different emails. i may be wrong though, so hopefully some of the others will come and give their opinion too.

Hi pcl, after reading binna's reply #17 I would still argue the case, maybe they might be good enough to give you the £250 voucher if you mention what they had replied to binna. Good luck

thanks for replying

I had the impression that it was in obtaining the code, where you fill in your name & address details on the muller website.

For example the £5 voucher I used was registered in my sisters name & her address, she only redeemed it on my zavvi account because she didn't have one.

Plus zavvi accepted some of the orders where multiple vouchers were used and have still processed more orders after the fact.

Seems none of the other websites have cancelled orders, only zavvi.

I think zavvi have pulled themselves from the promotion at the moment and I am awaiting their response from a letter of complaint I sent.

I also stated if I had known you could only use 1, I would have never used the £1, £2 codes etc and would have waited to redeem a voucher of higher value.

Hey wingobins, it was me who won the £250 voucher and has had problems, PCL just replied to my post. I just had a look at binna's post #17 and they are refering to the codes on the yogurts pots, whereas the other codes are the voucher codes you can win between the value of £1-£250 for their partner websites (zavvi, sportsdiscount, allsoles and iwoot)

But muller do say you can win up to 12 free gifts a day... so u can win more than 1 voucher (or any other gift), so I don't know what they expect you to do with the extra vouchers you have.

Ooops sorry hun, just re-read the post pcl posted and realised oyur name was on top
It does seem a bit daft if you win more than one voucher but can only claim one! I would be annoyed too if I won £250 on the third attempt! I do hope they manage to resolve this for you. Good luck xx

chmaine that is really mean of Zavvi.... It should be much clearer as I would also have waited as long as possible before using a voucher. Hope you get a good result.

I always wonder about these as well. I did meet a fellow comper in real life who had said they were her most successful comps for wins. So I tried them for a few days, but got soooo fed up of the tick boxes. Wish there was a quicker way to enter them
