    Hi,I've sent Dalkirst a pm to move this to discussion.

    In answer to your question I cannot see why anyone would pay for what is posted on here.
    It's not that cheap either:

    The Competition Club costs just £1.99 a week - but if you help reduce our admin costs and pay annually you can save 50% off this year's price.
    Pay just £51.74 to receive over 450 competitions every week with The Competition Club
    For a single-payment today of just £51.74 I will get over 450 competitions to enter every week with The Competition Club, that's over 23,000 new competitions a year!
    If I ever decide that The Competition Club is no longer for me, I can cancel my subscription and you will refund me the unused element, no questions, no queries, just a thank you for being a member. Each subsequent year that I continue to receive The Competition Club I will pay £103.48 per year.



    In all probability they get the comps from here :-)


    Just stick to MSE & do it for free.The only cost is your time :-)
    Plus I'd say that we have quite a few more then 450 posted on here in an average week.

    Roughly 87,000 on MSE in the past year,

    I won 12 months membership - they do some of their own competitions but as the above say you are paying for what you can get for free here. HTH
  • It would be interesting to see the time difference between a competition being posted on here and it being posted by the Club's dedicated staff scouring the 'web'.

    I'm not sure but I do know that I recently posted a couple of comps from a magazine that had been on the shelves a few days.

    Within about thirty minutes of the comps appearing on here Google showed them getting posted up on a few other comp portals.

    Read in to that what you will:D
  • No way would i pay for competitions that you can get freely from here not forgetting all the help also freely given if needed from all the many friendly posters on this site.

    This is where we are going wrong - instead of entering the comps we should set up a site and charge people to see these comps - we'll make lots of pennies :D

    I did sign up for the "free trial" of simply prizes to see what it was like but found I'd entered all the comps already through here and they were much better explained on here too!

    Stick to MSE :)
    Thanks to all posters :A
