    Annoys me, why doesn't the comp provider just make an attempt to contact him? It's really not that hard.
    Loads of comp winners lose out cos companies don't contact winners. I don't see the point ...

    They said they cannot
    Hotel Sis Pins You can't tag or message people from a business account or we would have done! You can only tag other businesses, celebs etc

    I don't know about tagging, but I've had messages from people with business accounts.

    Sure I have as well, but that may have been when an app was used (they do say on the comp post they will contact the winner by Direct Message)

    If they cannot tag or direct message that's all there is, they wouldn't have his e-mail.

    Facebook companies are terrible. Half of them don't even tag your name so you don't get any notifications. I don't enter half as many Facebook comps as I used too but now I bookmark every L&S comp I do in a folder with the end date so I can go back and check for the winner announcement. Takes longer but I have seen my name a few times which I don't think I would have seen otherwise.
