    5. Yes, to £2.10
    Why is there no option for "no limit"?

    At the end of the day, it is down to the person entering the comp. No one is forcing you to enter a comp that costs £2 to call - depending on the prize, I probably would enter it, there'd be less entrants :D

    And as for purchase comps - I only buy the product if I'm going to use it anyway :)
    Thanks to all posters :A

    I bet the mag publishers love us though :D

    So the point is irrelevant.

    Why is there no option to remove "buy to play" competitions from the competitions board ?

    Although, at least one person has to pay the magazine prices.

    Hi everyone!

    As fully fledged compers on the Comps Board you'll know we ask you not to post comps that require spending more than £1.53.

    Just to note that ALL ITV phone in comps already break this rule then as they cost £1.54 to enter by phone
    Or £1.50 + 1 standard text at normal rate (15p for O2 customers) so £1.65 per text

    Are you required to buy the mag in order to enter the competitions ?

    obviously not, as members on here purchase the mags & do the puzzles to give the answers for others to enter :)

    ie: from the comping guide:

    Also, the magazine comps that have their own threads will have lists of people that buy the magazines, answer the puzzles then post the answers on here for others. Please respect these existing posters as it is their money they are handing over to buy the mags & give us the answers.
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png
