Thoughts on this, is it legal/cheating?

Came across this website, personally I would never pay for someone to enter competitions for me! It seems like cheating, what are your thoughts?

There are other (larger) sites doing the same thing. Perfectly legal although the vast majority of decent competitions have T&C's that do not allow entries from that type of group.


(Of course paying for entries is the one way you can actually lose money entering free to enter competitions)

What is the point of paying and having no guarantee of winning, when you can do it for free yourself again with no guarantee


For every bottle of red wine you send me I will enter you into 100 competitions............Or until I can't see my keyboard any more :rotfl:

Apparently prize wise entered people last month into comps that came to just over £68,000. I know the value of the comps I entered in total would be atleast £600,000 more so not really worth paying for these services.

From Prizewise

"Winning prizes is a down to probability - we ensure that your details will be entered in at least 100 competitions and prize draws every month and so your chances are improved significantly, over and above the number of entries that may be practical if you were entering competitions yourself"

It all looks a bit anonymous for a company that is wanting you to pay them


money.



Looks like they have lifted the images from Shutterstock:

I would be a bit dubious about the 'postal address' they give too.

I don't think they can back up 'The Fastest Growing Competition Entry Site in the UK'.
