Sorry if this is the wrong place, but I just have a couple of questions regarding postal and text comps.
Im having a bit of a dry spell so wondering if I should add more comps Im entering by looking at these kind of comps as well.
What is the general win rate of these? ie are they worth doing? These text/phone calls can be quite expensive can't they?
Also I have a new contract with my phone where I get a certain amount of texts free a month, if I use a text comp will the text part be free (obv the £1 or whatever will be payable)Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday
Best Wins: Ipad, Nintendo 3DS, £400 Shopping Spree at LK Bennett, £100 Boots vouchers
Total Wins (Since April 2012) £3442.56
Big thanks to all who post comps :T:beer:0 -

hi zombieslayer
ppd's got a lot of questions answered on 1st page here
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4060679
if it's any help,
i've had lots of wins from postals & texts, some of the texts can be expensive so like anything you have to choose which prize you'd really like,
i've won an ipad from a £1 text, had a websurfer from a postal 2nd class stamp comp, plus lots of other wins, personally i think majority of these comps are well worth entering xplease be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly.0 -
