    Sounds promising...

    Go to their website, and then hover over Quicklinks Magazines at the top - definitely comps on here from a lot of those. http://www.haymarket.com/home.aspx

    Could also be the ultimate disappointment though: when they try to sell you a mag subscription after you entered a comp!

    Fingers crossed for something good! :j :j

    Have you tried calling back?

    Just searched the forum for 'Haymarket', and a lot of the Stuff.TV comps are based on their web servers...

    Oooohhhh how exciting !

    Got to remain negative at this stage however, as you say Jessica it may just be them selling me something :/


    Haven't called back as the message said

    "You have been called today from Haymarket Media Group, we will call you back"

    Will keep updated

    Hmm interesting, I too got a missed call from haymarket yesterday, they didn't leave a voicemail though and they've not rung back yet

    After some sleuthing, I have found in the terms and conditions of the stuff comps that:

    "Prize-winners will be notified in writing within 6 weeks of the applicable closing date"

    so might be not be a stuff comp win :o

    Is it a recorded voicemail? I've had those in the past from magazine companies trying to sell me a subscription.

    I would have thought it would be an individual, rather than pre-recording, if a win...
