living in france

pip5

hello, i'm new to the forum so hoping that i'm posting this in the right place! i'm from the uk but living in france so is there any way of filtering out the comps that are only for uk residents? thanks pip

Pretty much all of the comps are U.K. only on here. You may get the occasional international comp but they are few and far between. You would be better off trying to find a French comping forum I would think x

thanks ikkle87, I've worked through the last 100 or so pages yesterday and mostly the holidays are international but the smaller postable prizes aren't

it just takes a bit more time to zoom in on the 'uk only' clause which is why i'm asking

Hi

Might want to check out this thread

And ask the op about her experience.

If a company/site is UK based the competitions are likely to be for UK residents only whether it is explicitly mentioned in the T&Cs or not.

I checked a few holidays and they were UK only or the departure/return airport was a UK one.

thanks moneybot, maybe it's the techie world getting smaller but i do find that quite a lot of the bigger (non postable) prizes seem to be open to me, which is great,. thanks for the link, pip

plan at the minute is to avoid any physical prizes and go for money/holidays

departure uk airports is good for us as we are often in the uk

If you have any relatives or good friends still in UK , you could maybe use there address for smaller prizes.

thanks ellen, we have close relatives in uk (wales and ni) but I don't want them to be spammed by post
