    hi just started this comping bit and got a few questions

    where do you get roboform?

    who many comps on average a day to win something?

    if you dont sign up to there monthly subcriptions are you still in with a chance?

    if youb don't complete the registration process are you still entered?

    soz if these have been asked before


    You can download roboform at https://www.roboform.com

    I enter as many comps as I can for items that I would make use of

    I think you still have as much chance if you dont sign up for their subscirptions etc - it wouldnt be fair if not but you never know how they work it

    I always wait to see competition entry accepted etc before I close the page then I know I have been entered

    I know my issue 11 was delivered fine because I won from it!

    Normally you get an email to say that your entry has been received - did you maybe not receive this?

    I honestly don't know if I've had any confirmation Emails or not, and I can't find them in my Email history, so if I did have any, I probably deleted them.
    Oh well if I wasn't in it that explains why I didn't win, hey ho these things happen.

    If I was running a comp & I gave you the option to sign up to my newsletter/future mailings etc & you declined, Then I couldn't really see me letting you win,,,,,,:confused:

    Sounds odd do these delivery failure things, I always get a delivery confirmation email the same day I send my answers

    So do I. I can't guarantee it as I won't have them but I think I'd notice if I didn't get the confirmation.

    Same problem here. However I usually get an email confirming my entry, so I think this is just their computer system playing up.

    I have those emails for Issue 11 in my hotmail and issue 15 in my gmail. they seem to say that the original emails were sent yesterday from someone called Mark Crawford to the realpeople comps address.

    I've tried looking for the autoresponse emails they usually send, but my deleted items don't go back that far.
