    I wish companies would stop doing Facebook competitions like this where they demand a certain number of likers, then ask you to write on their wall etc. They should just put an entry form up and it would be so much easier.

    It shows how stupid the people are who run companies like this if they are prepared to run competitions that break the Facebook Promotion guidelines and risk having their fan pages shut down completely.

    Thanks to the OP for joining today to share this competition with us! It's a great prize. Please can you add an end date to the title 'E: 24/12' to make it fit with the format of the board (click 'edit' then 'go advanced'). Thanks :)

    Duly noted, I have edited the title. Thanks!

    I agree an entry form would be a lot easier, but it's for an iPad2 so I'll do whatever they ask me! (Up to a point :rotfl:)

    I couldn't agree more!! Whatever happened to the good old days when all we had to do was fill in a straightforward entry form?

    Happy Christmas Eve! Thanks for your entries to our iPad 2 competition! We gained almost 3000 new 'likes'! I have just sent a message to the winner of the competition and they will get their shiny new iPad2 very soon.

    Sorry if you didn't win, but we'll soon have a competition to win some ferry tickets so stay tuned. We also have some great GB car magnets and AFerry mouse mats to give away for free in the next 10 days - all you have to do is send your name and address to Facebook@AFerry.co.uk! The GB magnets are very useful if you are driving
