WeEnter4U service

Anyone else received the companzee WeEnter4U email?

Not quite sure sure what to make of it. How can someone else enter competition, manually, more effectively than we can?

I doubt they can do it for £2 something a week. And I wonder where they source the competitions from? Here...probably.

    In a short answer - don't bother.

    Any entries they do for you will probably be disqualified anyway as they are "automated".
    Thanks to all posters :A

    I was just about to post about this! I got the email too. Apparently it's not "automated" because they do all the entries individually but alot of websites won't even let you enter on behalf of another person.

    I personally wouldn't bother. They say that they could enter you for 200 comps a month. Many compers do that in a day!

    Exactly and what about the the comps you don't want to enter how are they they going to deal with that? Surely they would all come from the same ips address too? Crazy idea really.

    I also got the email and checked it out. 150 - 200 comps a month?

    So that's a max of 50 a week, which is less than 10 a day! Really? If someone can't be bothered to enter 10 a day themselves then they are very lazy. Plus surely there'd be people without kids winning childrens prizes they don't want, holidays won on dates they can't be taken and imagine having a call saying you'd won a nice sports car ... oh but wait .... you don't qualify because you don't drive, imagine the disappointment! No thanks! Also I'd not be able to enter any more as I wouldn't know what I'd be entered for.

    Yeah I got that email too but didn't even bother opening it, just binned it. Anything that wants you to pay to be entered into comps has got to be a total waste of time and money.

    Yes, I got it too, just sent it to the trash.

    Most competition rules say entries from third parties will be disqualified, so it's pointless.

    That's 12.5p per competition.

    I posted about this too. Thanks for letting me know Zanzib :T

    Just to add that anyone mad enough to sign up for this would risk duping themselves if they ever decided to enter a comp for themselves. How would they know if they'd already entered?

    But they wouldn't provide this 'service' if people didn't fall for it. I expect there are a lot of disappointed people out there hoping to win back at least what they paid.

    Well obviously people are signing up for this. Just got another email from them which reads:

    Everyone is going crazy for our new service. But we're strictly limiting numbers. Only 11 places left right now at the current price
