Competitions Discussion Thread Part 3

furndire

I didn't get mine one day, then checked that I was still subscribed to the Competitions Forum. Somehow it had been unsubscribed, so just try checking you are still subscribed,

Scroll down slightly, on left hand side, Click on Forum Tools, Subscribe to this forum,

I only discovered a few days ago, and it is great, as you can go through the comps and comment without getting bumped about. As you are working a day behind, you could miss some of the comps ending the same day, so its worth checking for end dates on the board daily.

Hi Wallzone, missed your post, but hopefully above post will help. Welcome to the comps board, be prepared to give up all other forms of life, as you get your first wins, and become throroughly addicted to comping :rotfl: :eek:
Have a read through here, as it has a lot of sound advice on what to do and ways of speeding up doing the comps http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=477864
Good luck ~ hope you have many WEMs (winning emails).

Can anybody help me with a technical problem, not sure if I'm in the right place?

I'm subscribed to have the "Competitions Times" update e-mailed to me on a daily basis and whilst I was receiving this it's not appeared for 3 days, and last week I didn't get it for two days.

I have checked my junk mail, not there. I've unsubsribed myself and re-subscribed but still nothing. Is this common cause I can kind of remember reading another post about it (cant find that now!).

I seem to be receiving other updates ok.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry if I have posted this wrong, I usually just lurk, not quite sure what i'm doing.

I was just wondering if anybody else was having the same problem. I actually import the comps email into my own database which I use for searching and managing comps. It's a bit quicker than using the MSE website.

But yeah, I haven't had a comps update email for a few days now and I'm worried that I might be missing out on some great chances!

Can't believe I've missed this so far. Now I can try to convince myself that I exercise some control over my "hobby". Thanks furndire!

Edited to say:

Basically Primary Times Local Area comps are just that - you will only be selected to win if you are in the local area, but NATIONAL comps are open to all.

Don't know where this will get most views, but hopefully as NOSONDDU posts the region in the title then it's not going to affect us.
