They are viewed as Spam on here.

I have not won a single thing via My Offers but then again I have never entered a single comp from there :-)

11 Are there any sites, from experience, which are likely to generate lots of spam?
There are a few which have come to our collective attention as sites that, when used for comps, seem to generate lots of unwanted postal, email & phone call attention. These are listed below for your information, however, please do remember that this is only the collective opinion of other MSE Compers & does not necessarily reflect upon the sites themselves.

Never watched it but THIS suggests he's her father-in-law.

Yes he's her father-in-law HTH

DD has a SUDOKU puzzle to complete for school to win team points, both of us have now looked at it but only managed to put 7 numbers in.

My scanner not working at moment so I can't scan it it but wondering if someone good at Sudoku could help? I can usually do them well but this has me stumped!!!

Hi, sorry to post this in the wrong section....

Does anyone cover the Radio Times weekly magazine comps? I've done lots of searches but can't find anything

They have an "Only Connect" competition this week (to win a trip to Paris) which me and my family are struggling to completely solve! Would love some hints if anyone has managed to solve all 3 walls

Thanks x
