This may be somewhere, and I would be grateful to be directed to the answer if it is somewhere.
I just nearly (may still have) missed out on a facebook win.
I wrongly assumed that the comp sponsors would notify winner by pm or at the least tagging them in the post. Apparently this is not the case. :mad:
Luckily a very very very kind stranger found me and tagged me so I could try and pm the sponsors to see if it was too late. :A
I know I have entered around a couple hundred fb comps in the last few weeks (at least it feels that way). HOW do other people manage checking the pages they entered on? I may not be asking that correctly.
I "like" 1000 pages, I cant possibly imagine looking through them every day. But is there a way to check that I am unaware of. I am new to comping as a whole and have had a few little wins, but now am wondering if I missed any really good stuff because I thought they would contact me directly.
Any advice, clues, thoughts greatly appreciated. Please also tell me if I am incorrect in assuming that all twitter wins are notified on twitter and not on fb.
Thanks all!

You can request membership of a Facebook page called The Winners Circle, the members there are very good at tagging you if your name is announced as a winner. Also search your Facebook name on here as there is a Facebook Winners Thread in I Won I Won I Won.Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams

I really appreciate that! I have sent my request in now. In all honesty based on my average of wins thus far, it is unlikely that there is any win "missing". I am so grateful for such a lovely comping community though. :T

Also, don't forget to check your 'other' message folder on Facebook. You sometimes get win notifications go into that. Good LuckLuck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams

Congrats on the win
I've been lucky enough to have people tag in me comments before when I've won :O) Also, I won a GEM106 competition before on the radio and I think four people, three of which are complete strangers, messaged me on Facebook to let me know. I was so grateful :O)
I also have google alerts set up. So if my name or username pops up, I get notifiedThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

I have some lovely friends who usually tag me to let me know when they seen me announced as a winner (not so often though!). I am not part of the winners circle - I prefer to check back myself so make a note of end dates
Good luck pet
