Multiple entries per household

lolamia

I wondered if anyone could shed light or give some advice. My partner now also wants to start comping, however we live at the same address. I know many comps state one entry per household, however there are many that say one entry per person however ask for your address such as the guardian ones. Does anyone know if they see two entries on the same address you can get disqualified even if it says one entry per person,

This may seem a silly question so apologies.

the take a break and sister companies let you do one per person regardless of address

puzzle comps is definitly one pe household as i mailed them

best bet is to mail them directly to find out for sure

Some which allow one per person entries have per household/address restrictions if you then win.

To make it easy I would have partner use their or your parents address (or a brother/sister) if they don't comp.

No need to use another address I have entered for myself and husband for years at same address and had no problems winning lots of prizes. I even enter for my daughter at her address and she has won some great prizes . If the rule says 1 per household then stick to it otherwise both of you can enter.

What I would personally do is both of you share the moneysaving log on and then you can take the load off each other and tackle the board + dailies etc

You will be able to tell what has been entered via the tick/ cross

You'll need to take care with any comps run by the Global radio stations (eg Heart, Capital, Smooth, Classic). Their T&Cs state that might consider entries from the same IP address to be multiple entries and disqualify them.

Eg Heart has the following:
"No multiple, bulk, automated, machine assisted, third party, syndicate or other group entries will be accepted. We shall disqualify any entries which, in our reasonable opinion, appear to have used any of these entry methods including multiple entries from the same IP address or telephone number, unless the Specific Rules state that multiple entries are permitted."

It maybe unlikely that you get caught but entering for other people often breaks T&C's. (although if they simply disqualify multiple entries from one ip address you wouldn't know if they have)

Thanks for all the advice guys seen as Eleanorre managed I think I'll just keep checking the T&C's

Right, not wanting to cause any arguments here, a genuine question too, but is it right to comp for other people? Its just, surely thats not fair, you could comp in several names and say "oH well my Uncle Jim doesn't comp so I'm comping for him!"
Is it really fair to comp in your daughters name? Why can't your daughter comp? My mum is rubbish and doesn't know how to comp really, and is always getting wrong (Yep she's one of those on fb who will comment on the post someone else has shared, no matter how many times I explain it to her!! drives me bonkers lol) but I wouldn't do it for her as I would regard that as cheating and getting more entries. Just to be clear, this isn't be horrible, this is me and my own opinion, and if no-one else agree's thats absolutely fine!
I don't want people shouting at me lol. ;-) x

As I already posted that often breaks T&C's (some state entries must be made directly by the person entering others state things like third party entries are not permitted). If they simply disqualify multiple entries from a single ip address then people wouldn't know they have been wasting their time entering some also mention they chuck out entries if ip addresses are "fiddled with" (cannot remember the exact wordind)
