Attachments can contain viruses so I think wont be allowed anywhere on site... what is in the attachment? Can you not just copy/paste?

I did copy and paste link but it did not show up in colour the way others do. Will people still be able to click on it and go straight to web page???
Thanks.

small, how do you do that? I like to enter the Deal Or No Deal one but it drives me mad entering the details that autofill misses everytime. If I could do the 30 only having to enter the security pic that would be fantastic.

I would like to know this too as I do sometimes enter DOND (when daughter not hogging computer) and get fed up keep entering same details over and over!

It should do but you won't be able to tell until it's posted or I think you can preview it somehow.

Winjackie, there is a lil button above where you type in the box - a globe with a lil paper clip - insert your link there and it should work

And apologies if you're already doing that xx

Thanks for that, I didn't know! I will try to post the competition later (if my daughter lets me on comp now she is home from school!)

Hi
I have just received an email about this new comping service (I think its new anyway) designed to save you money on p'card comps. the idea is you pay an annual membership fee of £15 (at the moment) and then 10p per postacard competition. In return the site fills in the p'cards for you, sends them recorded delivery, and thus saves at least 20p per competition for members. You could enter something like 25 comps a week or something, but you pick and choose to suit yourself.

I wondered what other MSE'rs thought of this, or if anyone has any experience of the site?

First impressions for me are why pay someone else to do the work you can do yourself? Unless your really rushed off your feet all the time why pay someone else to do it?

I took the source code for the page and changed it to create my own page that had my details pre-filled which then submitted to the official site. I would need to have a look at the DOND page to see if we can get to the code. The comp is closed at the moment.
