I've never won a FB comp but I had no idea you had to check. I always presumed they would send me a message!0

I have won a couple since I started again in June this year, they did send me a message, which is why I didn't realise some were being a tad sneaky (or are they just being run by peeps who don't get it either!)I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Competition Time, Site Feedback and Marriage, Relationships and Families boards.

I've won a couple of Facebook comps, and both times they've tagged me in a comment when announcing a winner. I've never bothered to check back to see if I haven't been tagged though, so now realise I could have missed out on some prizes.2015 wins: set of Baileys Prize for Fiction shortlist books, 2 books (Goodreads), case of Tornado energy drink, The Incomplete Tim Key book, Spoilt Pig tote bag, British Library exhibition tickets, Pixels Limited Edition Blu Ray0

Am I missing something? If I enter a FB comp I always make some comment, at the very least a smiley face, then when the winner is announced I get a notification from the competition promoter. If I have won the notification says they have replied to my comment.
I have found on a few occasions that even though I have commented in a thread and the company has then replied I have not received any notifications. Likewise, I have also been tagged in posts ie in a reply and also never received a notification.
Not all the times but sometimes. Facebook can be very temperamental at times!The best things in life are free.....0 -

https://www.facebook.com/groups/CompWinners/ join here and people generally tag you if you win and if you see any competitions that have ended you can post them in there too and tag people.
I've just searched my own name on this group's page, all my Facebook wins are there - no surprises, phew!I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Competition Time, Site Feedback and Marriage, Relationships and Families boards.
