    Thank you, I know it's not real per say but just want to know if it's a real comp I've entered and they've emailed me off the back of that or if my details have been sold somewhere along the line!

    So long as they don't start calling me I'm not that bothered about the one email.
  • I was about to add this as a question too! I didn't know what comp it was from and searched company name and couldn't find... will delete now I know. Thanks guys! xx

    Ha ha ha! I've literally just come in after being out all day, checked me emails, got the exact same one and come on here to see if anyone else has had it! I was half excited for a moment when I skimmed the subject and first line, but then realised it was just an insurance thing :mad:
