To be honest bullshot, the browser is the reason you don't see the form fully I imagine...it's a very poorly coded and run comp. If you fill out the form in FF and hit the back button the form is still filled in, not great at all especially if you share a machine in sme way...good comps that do that always have you log in or warn you even with that safety net in place.

changing the rules mid comp is pure bs ...it states nothing about household or IP, and even if it did I could do it from at least 2 IPs without even touching my broadband at all...anyone with mobile web access and a dongle could quite easily even without proxy services.

Great comp still though, especially if they add us into all draws...and on that subject, additional entries don't mean DQ in most comps either, just the extra ones are discarded. Harsh if they DQ anyone for following their rules...and trouble they don't need.

Makes me wonder about yesterdays comp ...what happened with that one I wonder? lol

I understand you might be a very senior member here .. but with all due respect you can't call anyone opinion BS .... Apologies but the response came to me as a bit rude.

I was just voicing my concern over how they run the competition ... and what qualify as one entry per person .. how do they determine this .. is it through IP addresses (which is a very common norm in the agencies who run the comps). I don't think agency keep this in mind that when setting up competitions that all members of family would be filling the same competition - which really does make sense if we think in their perspective.

Plus not everyone is IT guru and have facilities of using cable internet plus Dongle.

They said "Bullshot" not BullS&&& as "bullshot is the users name"

Yeah I read that.. and I read it as the Comp runners not the user who posted it.. ie it would be BS for Time to change the rules halfway thru!

BTW my username is the eponymous character from the film,who my hubby thought was very funny and nothing to do with BS***,...honest... I can see the form fine using FF on my laptop, it's on my iPad that it is not fully shown and the iPad came with Safari installed.Still getting 'you've already entered message'...and still cannot enter using iPad....has anyone won from yesterdays comp?

salboy

maybe .. my I interpreted it in a different way . no offence / hard feeling meant to anyone then

bullshot

Had 1 more attempt to try and enter,just to see if I could... filled in the form and it was submitted , was a bit stunned so looked at the T&C's....the comp is for tomorrow....think they really have got a few probs, as thought todays closed at 6.59pm...
