Am I paranoid!?

fizzys

Hi everyone I generally lurk but appreciate everyone posting comps and its so nice reading winners posts.

I've got quite bad anxiety and other things (blah,blah) so don't get out a great deal and I find comps fill the time, its kind of a little rush :sad::undecided especially leading up to Christmas, I'm sure you understand

I have entered so many as of late - I'd actually hate to think,I'm thinking 500+ daily, for about two months (that sounds so bad!!)

I was doing this before a little less, but still alot. I don't want to sound crazy paranoid but ...

Could emails to me be blocked somehow?

Could people not like my name?

Could they think I'm being greedy?

Is there an issue with my phone number?

Is it because some are autofilled by Chrome?

I guess I should count myself lucky winning a couple of things here & there, probably £120 worth over 4 years (got to be in it to win it), but I'm actually starting to think I'm doing something wrong.

I'm just feeling like this little hobby of mine is just another thing I can't be successful at!! that sounds so pathetic lol. (And don't worry I don't do sob stories!) I hate writing anything to be honest!!

Just thinking the time I spend on here lately I should cut down and go out and get help or something....

Happy Friday! :laugh::laugh:

Hope you win lots of prizes in December - it's just the luck of the draw, but with that many entries I am sure you will have a few wins soon.

Good Luck !

No, you're not paranoid, just unlucky. . . so far. If you still enjoy comping as a hobby, keep going - there's nothin so thrillin as winnin! Have you tried the likes of Lucky Phone, FreePostCode lottery, Badgerthe button? They require regular daily visits, small prizes, but lots of friendly banter among the other players.
I hope you win soon.

Thank you Thats the thing -I do it kind of a enjoyment - feeling how much a family member would love this prize etc, it gives me a little buzz!?! I've done freepostcode I'm sure I got annoying calls from them though. Hope you get wins too!xx

Heylo. Freepostcode Lottery don't phone people. It's the People's Postcode Lottery who tend to spam people to death.

I too have crippling anxiety and comping is also my way of coping.

This sounds like it could have been written by me. I have been lucky in the past but for a long time now I've been entering about the same as you daily so that I've cleared the board pretty much. And these last few years I have won nothing to show for it. I think it is all down to luck. You will find that when you win it is closely followed by another one or two and then your luck will be gone again and paranoia will set in all over again.

I often wonder how people manage to enter 500 competitions a day ... I don't think I could even find 500 competition a day if I checked every Competition site, never mind find them and enter them

The obvious thing to check would be that Chrome is auto-filling the correct information, you only have to enter your email address in wrong once for it to save that wrong email.

Not really but tad unlucky, just like me Last year, I was a bit frustrated that I didn't win anything when people were just posting about their wins. Funny I know but ah well. I given up - I was going to be away for a year anyway. Then I started again, around September. Won couple of things, some small some big.

Badger the button, Geo task wins - although I never stopped doing them, still luck of draw.

Won a cookbook and some cereals too. I tend to enter comps I truly want to win. Hope you will win lots of stuff soon
