Future competitions confirmation emails?

purplebutterfly

Is anyone else missing their emails from Future competitions sites? The ones they send where you have to click on a link to complete your comp entry?

I haven't had any in the last three days for any of their online comps :mad:

hi, been getting mine ok though sometimes a couple have gone in spam x

Hmmmm, no nothing in spam. Think I'll have to search them out and try entering with a different email address

UPDATE: works perfectly well when using my btinternet.com address but not my yahoo.co.uk

I haven't had any for the last few days either, I have a sky.com address, I assume I won't have been entered without the confirmation

I thought this yesterday too and I have a sky.com address :mad:

I wonder why?

I use Gmail and have not had any problems. I only changed to Gmail a few years ago after terrible problems with Yahoo mail and I had lots of evidence of emails that were sent to me which never turned up in my inbox.

I was in lots of communications with Yahoo but they would always deny there was a problem blaming my ISP (which was not the case at all as hubby had no problems) I therefore set up a few tests. I subscribed to our local newspaper, one with my Yahoo email and another with Gmail. The Gmail email arrived in my inbox around 10am every morning. The Yahoo mail arrived hours/days later and sometimes not at all. This convinced me there was a huge problem with Yahoo mail reaching your inbox and it was not my ISP so I ditched them to use Gmail permanently and have not had a problem since.

I did google the problem of Yahoo mail not being received and was quite shocked to read of other people saying the same.

Same for me. Confirmation emails to hubby's Hotmail address but nothing through to my sky.com address.

Well sky did change to yahoo so this could be why, I have now set up a gmail account for future use, now just gotta change everything

Yup, same here. No emails for days now.

Thanks for this thread everyone!

I also failed to receive 3 conf emails from Future to my Yahoo address. No prob once I switched to my gmail one, but annoyed as didn't keep a note of those comps I entered using Yahoo so presume they were never 'confirmed' - ah well. At least I know to only use gmail from now on!!
