Any advice on winnersville?

Options
Hello, I'm fairly new to comping and I've just found Winnersville.
I think I should have trusted my instincts and clicked away from it immediately. I think it's a site that wants a lot from you (surveys and giving away personal info) in exchange for a single competition entry. I may be over-reacting ... I'm not sure
Has anyone else come across this site? What do you think of it?
Please help x

    They are based in the Rep of Ireland and are a much smaller version of data harvesting sites such as MyOffers, getmeaticket etc.

    Thank you for replying! I think I'll steer clear of Winnersville in the future!
    I've never heard of MyOffers or getmeaticket so I'm going to avoid them too.
    Lesson learned!!
    Cheers
