Does anyone else have Northern Ireland envy?

I always think your probably more likely to win competitions when you have to buy the product and at other times they are fantastic prizes, often in the terms it says that purchased is required if your in Britain but people from Northern Ireland don't have to buy the product. Am I the only new with envy for those across the water?

Best wins in 2013 £200 and Mini iPad. 2014 no wins. 2015 2 nights 5* hotel with £300 vouchers plus £1150 Harrods gift card

I believe the law is changing so NPN will be also stopped at some point for NI.

Yes, NPN is good for us, though I've never won from a NPN entry, but there are also a lot of competitions which are not open to N.Ireland e.g. all the comps run by Future Publishing magazines, the HuffPost UK comps...Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none.

I agree with you ness13! A lot of really great comps we are excluded from over here in NI which sucks! I also get really envious when there is comps for spa breaks, Or theatre shows which I would love to win, but would have to get a flight to enjoy! Sigh! Lol!
Also, I have never won either from a NPN compI L❤️VE COMPING!

I have had some good wins from the NI NPN so will be sad to see this going.
But as the others have said we are excluded from a lot of comps, I hate seeing the words "MAINLAND UK ONLY" in the T&Cs.:coffee:0
