Has anyone ever won with these?
I have entered 154 comps in total with sites like these (I have always opted out/declined marketing) and wonder if its worth entering more as Ive had a couple of emails from the sites telling me more comps are available.

That just says that they generate a lot of spam etc not that they should be avoided altogether. They often include offers that may be of interest to which I just say no to them all and Ive had no big rise in unwanted phone calls or spam. Just wondered if there are actually prizes with them or not.Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday

With Get Me a Ticket, I think there is some dispute as to whether the prizes actually exist. Sometimes the same person appears to win alot of the prizes, which is just suspicious.2019 Wins

I don't enter them either, as I struggle with the vast amount of other comps on here. I don't even have time for daily/weekly entries etc never mind adding to my list:eek:The shinbone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.:TBig thanks to all competition posters:T0 -
MyOffers do have real prizes, with the money they make it would not be worth the risk of "faking it".
This is the company behind them (at least the "spam" is targeted and as far as I know they do respect "opt out" if you remember to tick the right boxes all the time)

according to them they have "2.7 million registered users" on myoffers so the chances of winning are slim0 -
Sorry for bumping old thread, but I'm days behind with my comping
I've won a prize with Getmeaticket, and always say No to everything. Don't get any spam, just emails (not loads) from the site itself. Hope that helps.0
