    I've actually worked out my comp success rate on Twitter (wins/tweets) - 0.28%.

    So, I look at it this way - there's a 99.7% chance I won't win anything, so when I do it makes it that much sweeter!

    Good luck!

    Just keep going is my only advice, it took me months to initially win on there - and then I had three come along all on one day

    Be lucky x
    Wishing you all good luck!

    That is a good way to look at it. Makes the wins even more special :D

  • I've literally only been comping for two weeks and got my first win last week via Twitter... But I guess it's just beginner's luck.
    I think because the Twitter comps are so quick and easy to do, that thousands enter them... but perseverance is key I think ;)
    Keep on going - and good luck!

    Are you informed of wins from Twitter via email, a tweet or a PM?

    Tweet or a DM, they don't have your email.

    I recieved a DM, or they will mention you in a tweet, so it will be a good idea to keep an eye on your mentions.
