The OP's maths here are slightly flawed. As others have said, it's free, unlike the Lottery or Health Lottery.
My friend won £1000 last week, so it's worth it in my opinion.Happy with my advice? The please use the 'thanks' button vvvvvvvvvvvvv0 -
If I found a tenner in the street I'd be happy (obv if I saw who dropped it I'd return it) and if I win on this for free then I'll be equally happy, I'm quite sure many of us spend more than a few mins browsing sites that add no particular value to our lives each day so a min or so to check FPL is no skin off my nose.Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

I won £100 just before Christmas, which added to my £23 bonus was a lovely surprise. Not life-changing, but since it's free I'm certainly not complaining :beer:0

They have now paid out over £544,000 not bad for something you don't pay any cash to enter.0

Someone else from MSE won £500 a couple of days ago.0

apart from about 3/4 mins of my day checking the results.
I may never win, but I can't win the lottery either and that cost me if I want to play.Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.0 -

I hadn't even heard of this I now the postcode lottery you pay for seems good at throwing a few tenners your way but nothing too big either, then again I stopped the lottery before they priced it up to twice as much so there you go. I think if you have the time with smartphones now that few minutes is hardly bad because we aren't essentially making money every minute of every day.0

Has anyone ever really been as far as decided to do what more like? :think:Debt: May 15: £17335 Jul 16: £13874 Jan 17: £11,606 Dec 18: £8,308 Sept 19: £4,969 Jul 21: £890

You need to check twice a day to catch all the 9 daily draws. It takes me two minutes per day. It costs nothing. Working out the probability of winning is such a waste of time, as knowing the odds will not change whether I will personally win or not. It’s just random luck. The only sure thing, is that if you don’t register or don’t check, you won’t win.
I think it’s a great innovative idea that offers a fun chance to win cash for free.0
