    I just can't get these Waitrose comps to go through. With the £100 crossword comp I sent it to their customer services email. I got a nice email back saying sorry and they put my entry in for me. With this competition I did the same but got this reply.

    "Thanks for getting in touch about our competition although I'm sorry you've been unable to enter.

    I'm afraid there is currently a technical error with our website, which we hope to have fixed shortly. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this causes, and thanks again for your patience.

    Kind regards

    They then asked me to fill in a survey to comment on the service I had been given. Hmm what service.
  • I'm experimenting with incognito windows. It worked for this one.
    I'd post more but I'm too darned slow :D

    This seems to be their standard response now. I emailed them and received exactly the same.

    No joy for me. I've tried everything suggested and, as has been mentioned before, it just seems to be pot luck. If found that it either goes through first or second time for me, or not at all. So if it doesn't go through the first couple of times, I tend to give up.

  • Try this, it seems to work for me every time. As soon as the website loads, type in the code really quickly then fill out the rest of the form. HTH :) X

    OMG This worked. Thankyou so much, one day I spent half an hour trying to enter one of these competitions and it still didn't work.
    Make £10 per day-
    June: £100/£300

    Finally worked for me. Maybe they've sorted whatever was wrong.
