    Just wondered what you all think about the competitions from "silversurfers"comp address.

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=427977


    as the email address is [EMAIL="sixtyplusurfers@hotmail.co.uk"]sixtyplusurfers@hotmail.co.uk[/EMAIL]

    I normally use a hotmail address because its free.

    Do you think this site is 100%genuine, as it seems very strange for a company to operate using hotmail.

    Im probably a little to cautious and being silly.

    I was thinking the same. But I know a few companies uses free mail services to save cost. Would love to know what others think as the prizes are very nice:)

    Does anybody ever get a web entry on this programme??.
    I have been trying for the past week, all through the program, and have not achieved a single entry.
    I begin to wonder if this is like the phone in scams that have been going on lately.
    I would also like to know if anybody has ever won anything from a web entry??.

    Hi Alan,
    Not sure if this is posted in the wrong place??

    I've got through by web entry....once!! Didn't win though, just missed the whole programme by entering over & over again!!
    They do say that 'not all calls are sucessful', so I guess its the same for internet entries too.
    If you think how popular the programme is & how many people will be applying via the internet as its free; its probably inundated with people applying.
    Be patient. What is meant to be, will be!
    All the best x

    I have occasionally been successful with a web entry but you have to be really persistent and I got fed up typing in all the details each time! Never won anyway and have told myself that I probably won't. They should really make it easier especially if they want you to watch the show! My computer's in a different room from the television so I end up missing it anyway. The only upside is that it's free to enter online!
